Been watching Tuba Skinny on these videos for several years. Actually saw then live in the Spotted Cat when I visited NO in 2013. Hoping to go again soon.
I saw them in Detroit a few years ago, fantastic music. In 1964 I saw the English Movie Jazz revue with Acker Bill, Chris Barber and Keny Ball and I've been a big fan of traditional "original" Dixieland ever since.I was in New Orleans in 2014, they are some of the best in comparison.
Great video,presentation,ive been a fan for 10 years now,getting this background story will make such a difference,thank you.And a big thanks to all who brought tuba to us over the years,
Thanks for posting this well thought out and informative tribute. I've been a Tuba Skinny fan for a long time and now I know quite a lot more about their origins and influences. I now have to rearrange my bucket list of places to visit and put New Orleans at number 1!
Been watching Tuba Skinny for quite a while on UA-cam wonderful stuff pity we cannot seem to buy CDs in England especially with Erica on vocals .Keep going folks we are trying to spread the word.
Had 5 trips by ship to New Orleans - first trip visited the heaving French Quarter on Christmas Eve. There are always bands playing in the streets and while I don't always remember the names, I am familiar with Tuba Skinny. One of the best memory was dinner one night up on one of those balconies in Bourbon Street watching the amazing atmosphere on the street below. Later we walked back to the ship in rain so heavy, it hit the ground and bounced back up 3 feet under our coats - no complaints though.
Great compilation and interesting info on the musicians most of whom, surprisingly, were not NO natives. Didn’t mention that the wonderful Shaye is the granddaughter of Al Cohn, one of Woody Herman’s Four Brothers. I lived in the French Quarter in the mid 60s when entry to Preservation Hall was $1 and requests were also 1$ (2$ for The Saints!). If Tuba Skinny had been around then I would never have got any work done.
They’ve had some great clarinet players over the years, Ewan Bleach being a personal favourite but all three (that I know of anyway) have been awesome to hear.
Bellamina: the verses have the same melody as a country song called Bimbo...Bimbo is a popular song written in either 1948 or 1949 by Glenn O'Dell, but credited to Rodney (Rod) Morris or "Pee Wee" King. Jim Reeves, popular country singer, had a hit with it in 1954. So perhaps the Bimbo verse melody was accidently or on purpose stolen from Bellamina. link: ua-cam.com/video/hZzBESzOAIg/v-deo.html
i'm one digitalalexa videos fan since many years. I hope this nice Tribute rest on youtube. Friendly wishes from me and all européen Tuba Skinny lovers. Jo (France/Europe)
My apologies digitalalexa. I acknowledge your content by why should we not BOTH pay tribute to our favourite SURPERB BAND. Having met them in FQF in 2022 I found them so friendly.
Best Dixielandband ever! SuperB.
The best you will ever hear. Thank goodness their work has been recorded.

Hey! Hey!! Onward!
Thanks for the Tuba Skinny journey. As I said above HEY! HEY!!
One of your friends in South Africa says : HI
thank you so much for your successful effort
Oh man, I would really like to get to know New Orleans and TUBA SKINNY. Thank you very much for this great video!
Salut of Russia.
Yes the sweeter sound of the cornet makes a difference, gives the group a distinctive different sound. they all have great tone too.
They’ve had some great clarinet players over the years, Ewan Bleach being a personal favourite but all three (that I know of anyway) have been awesome to hear.
Brilliant Ken New Orleans was fun and I love your post😂
Excellent
Thanx❤
❤
boom chick, boom chick, boom chick, boom chick, boom chick, boom chick, boom chick, boom chick, boom chick, boom chick, !!!
I Think their best line up was when John Doyle played,not having a sax anymore was a bad move.

Correction not 'by' should be 'but'
