If everyone could go out like that who would fear death. Beautiful!!!
Amen!
A fitting tribute for a great man and musician. A huge crowd on a hot and humid August day. It was a true honour to attend.
Loved Pete Fountain. Grew up listening to him and Al Hirt. What a fitting tribute to such a talented man!
My Mom loved Pete's playing and the Dukes of Dixieland. We saw him on the Lawrence Welk Show. Can't wait to get to Preservation Hall again!
A very powerful rendition of second-line "A Closer Walk With Thee." A fitting tribute
I just saw the U tube, what a fitting send off for Pete.I will always remember meeting him on a number of occasions, a gentleman.
A beautiful coffin. Yes it was. Thanks for the one of a kind clarinet playing . A real master . Thanks.
Wow! Thanks for sharing that! Now that's how to have a funeral!
An appropriate tribute to a great musician and a real classy gentleman. Thanks for the great music Pete!
Such a beautiful outpouring of emotion and spirit expressed through music. Pete Fountain, New Orleans Royalty, RIP.

This is beautiful. Gods music on the journey up. Love this.
I am the self proclaimed biggest Saints fan in England. When its my time (not just yet), I want this as my final wish. Bless New Orleans.
Wow, what a send off for a giant of a man and musician. I'd have loved to have been there for that.
Simply amazing!
God Bless Pete he was a friend of the Army EOD. 45th EOD to be precise.
I love the New Orleans funerals. The jazz honering the person
Beautiful.
Wonderful
Fell in with the Half Fast on a couple Mardi Gras weeks, though I was never a tenth the musician he was.
* DAMN!!! HOW COOL IS THIS?!!!!!
I saw Pete, on the Lawrence Welk TV show, many times in the 1950s. Then, I saw him LIVE, in his club on Bourbon Street, in 1960, when I was just 18 years old. His first song, which he played for 20 minutes, was "I Found My Love in Avalon."
This is the real s***. Beautiful layers of harmony. Goodbye Pete.
Great send off For a Great Musician
That's what I want at my funeral!
My condolences and prayers are with your family and friends! Rest in peace Sir! You're loved and missed by so many people! Very beautiful casket and funeral precession!

STLOUIS CATHEDRAL 👑⚜️🥃🥃❗️HE DID HIS THANG! 👑⚜️🔥🦂🙏🏿
Can we trade Mitch Landrieu in and get Pete back?
lets trade Donald Trump and get Pete back!
@@IcUrPoint how bout just bitch landrieu
@@IcUrPoint Lets Trade Obama and get a real U.S. citizen who was not a globalist criminal back. Thank You Lord Jesus For president Donald J Trump and The AR-15.
R.i.p....I GUARANTEE you that 70% of those people were simply tourist that didn't even KNOW that man,just looking for a reason to drink while using the culture of Louisiana to do it-
And I guarantee the guest of honor would have been damned happy about that.
I MUST TOTALLY agree with you on that one-
I'd go with 90%-
Erica Lewis and Shaye Cohn from "Tuba Skinny" should be getting funerals like this when the time comes. Best jazz Musicians in the history of the planet. Shaye Cohn should have a statue of her put up.
Don’t overdo it. There have been countless better bands that, I ,as a 78 year old musician have heard.
Is this the best they could do for the great Pete Fountain? Terrible band!
Pete would have thought you're an asshole for saying that. So do I.
I’m sure he would have liked it...
which one is terrible? there are at least 10 bands in this video.
