New Orleans trumpet player and local legend, Kermit Ruffins, has long been considered a local musical treasure.
Following in the footsteps of Louis Armstrong and other jazz legends, Ruffins has played in Mardi Gras second line bands since he was a child. His band, The Barbecue Swingers, really know how to throw a party. This collection features some of the best songs from his Basin Street and Justice Records releases.
