Here's a Canadian pressing of Al Hirt's breakthrough album that really put the New Orleans trumpet virtuoso on the map nationally. "Our Man In New Orleans" captures Hirt at the peak of his technical prowess, blending his classical training with the rollicking spirit of traditional Dixieland jazz. This 1963 release features his legendary take on "Java," which became his signature tune and a Top 10 hit, along with spirited renditions of "When the Saints Go Marching In" and "Muskrat Ramble." Hirt's approach here is distinctly different from the more tourist-friendly material he'd record later – this album showcases his serious jazz chops alongside the showmanship that made him a household name.
