Orleans Records
With their release of I Wanna Go Back to New Orleans, The Pin Stripe Brass Band have solidified their spot as one of New Orleans' hottest brass bands. The title song - and also the first track - sets a strong foundation for the rest of the album... and it's exactly what we've come to expect from The Pin Stripes - a soulful and super funky outing. Carlo Ditta did an excellent job in not overproducing this album and instead focusing on conveying the raw energy that was inherent in each of the tracks. If you're a lover of brass music, as I am, this album will make a fine addition to your collection.
