While the first of two Dukes of Dixieland sampler LPs (taken from their dozen Audio Fidelity albums) mostly stuck to very well-known Dixieland tunes, the follow-up has a variety of pre-1920 songs, some of which are rarely performed in this setting. Among the tunes fitting into that category are "Thunder & Blazes, "Lassus Trombone," "Dill Pickles" and "Slide, Frog, Slide"; the band's rendition of "Asleep in the Deep" is delightful.
