Cornetist Jakob Etter and his New Orleans Hot Shots have kept the spirit of New Orleans jazz alive in Switzerland for over twenty-five years. They
shouldn’t be unknown to our readers as we issued a CD of them about ten years ago (GHB 357 – Live at Mahogany Hall Bern). The current issues were both well recorded in concert in 2011- the band has a deep repertoire of
New Orleans standards and have carefully mixed in well-known numbers with some beautiful numbers which are seldom played.
