The Preservation Hall Jazz Band was formed by tuba player Allan Jaffe around 1961 in New Orleans. The band is still in operation. In this performance from about June 2010 the band is comprised of Mark Braud on trumpet; Charlie Gabriel on clarinet, Ben Jaffe on tuba; Joe Lastie on drums; Freddie Lonzo on trombone; Clint Maedgen on tenor-sax; Rickie Monie on piano and Walter Payton on string bass.
Tailgate Ramble was composed by Wingy Manone and Johnny Mercer. It was published in 1944 and has been played by the Trad Jazz crowd ever since.
