By 1950, drummer Ben Pollack was regularly playing Dixieland in the Los Angeles area. His Pick-A-Rib Boys recorded 20 selections as radio transcriptions (all included on this CD), and these brief performances (none longer than two minutes and 40 seconds) pack a lot of music into a short period of time. Trumpeter Dick Cathcart, trombonist Moe Schneider, clarinetist Matty Matlock, pianist Ray Sherman, bassist Walt Yoder, and Pollack himself romp through a variety of Dixieland standards, tunes from the 1920s, and a few oddball items, including "San Antonio Shout," "The Third Man Theme," and Matlock's "Echo in the Cavern." ~ Scott Yanow
