"Maple Leaf Rag" is the epitome of "Rag Time" and Tuba Skinny plays a wonderful rendition of "Maple Leaf Rag". I love those two ladies who have stuck with "tuba Skinny" all these years.
I have just recently discovered Tuba Skinny and I can't get enough of them. Tell Shaye if she is not married, here I am. But one thing I will never understand is how people can walk by completely oblivious to this outstanding music. I guess there are those who are so wrapped up in the daily little messes they call their lives, they haven't the time to appreciate those things that make life so wonderful. I feel pity for them and for those soulless 75 who voted thumbs down.
Thank God for RUclips! or I would never have seen or heard Tuba Skinny. Wish my Dad was still here to have a listen. He loved this music and got me loving it, too!
Music has no age and that's what's wonderful. I marvel at music that is over 115 years old as well as music composed yesterday. A life without music is hell. Thanks, thanks to Tuba Skinny who makes me find my soul of child at more than seventy four years.
The evolution is undisputedly real; should be easy to listener to decipher the period of time "Maple Leaf Rag" was composed. Refreshing, however, to see some of today's youth enjoying it as much as I do.
I am sitting at seventy-three years of age. Had wonderful parents that loved a large assortment of music. It is so great to have groups like this to listen to when so many radio stations have their little set of songs that they play over and over and is nothing more than top ten tunes from whatever persuasion they choose. To much wonderful music to listen to to be stuck on "gits" only stations.
In this crazy time, it's so hopeful to watch seven people at the top of their art working in perfect harmony to make something absolutely exceptional and beautiful. Tears of joy... Bless you...
This is so fabulous. There is really no where to go after this. Even includes a poor dog with flees to add character. These wondrous musicians that chooses to ply their there genius as street musicians are a special breed.
This is sooooo it! They totally capture the spirit of Dixieland and rag!!! The clarinet player, the trumpet, well everyone there is giving it that special feel I love...this is pure candy to my old ears...Thank You very much for sharing all those great clips of Tuba Skinny, a band I didn't know of until recently! Cheers!
@@demef758 I see,..There's a nuance.. I always confuse "Dixieland" "Rag time" and "N.O.Jazz"...This music is before my time (I'm only 65) but I love it!
I've just played this again (in September 2022) after listening to more up-to-date TS videos for the past six months or so, and I can honestly say it is absolutely wonderful. The intonation, and the togetherness of the band are spot on, and it seems to me that in the seven years since this video was made they have remained constantly superb in what they do. It is no wonder that we are all still listening to them more than ten years after they were founded. If the band is reading this, I have one thing to say to you all: Keep up the good work.
Only in New Orleans. Hound dog is probably a body guard. Drummer is tired of holding drum, so she sits on it. No body is following sheet music. Truly odd combinations of instruments, but they always blend. You gotta love the south !
I have to say, Shaye's playing, especially on her solos, is a study in musical interpretation and I mean feeling, timing and emphasis. She is a visual poem.
Hello,,, muy buenos los felicito de todo cora, que la trompeta esa señora. Y el perrito rascándose las pulgas muy original todo. Bendiciones muchachones 🇨🇷
I love Erica's rock steady yet swingin' bass drum work. Her drum work is an easily overlooked but essential reason why this band swings so hard. Its hard to see how something so simple drives the band so well. But then I guess that's what the great one's do - they make it look simple.
I'm 80 years old How Can anyone set still when there's a good Dixie land Band playing. Im use a walker to get around a i hear that my feet are going.👍👍👍👍👍😄😄😄😄
Love it, this was my Grandma'sfavorite song to play on the piano. She was still tickling the impression on this one when she passed away at the age of 92. God Bless.
This is simply wonderful music. Love the video dogs and wandering people. I do hope they come back to Australia some time. Thank you for making my day.
I keep coming back to this, months and months between visits and it's still as good and fresh as ever. I don't honestly think I'm ever going to see Tuba Skinny - unless they visit Britain - but they are the quintessential Dixieland Jazz band. And they make it look so casual! I loved the trombone solo, but I couldn't see the trombonist! Thought it might be the tuba player, but it would have to be a tuba player with huge lungs to do that. Glad I spotted him behind the collecting table. Great stuff guys.
Love your band so much I hate to leave the music to do a chore in another room. I often carry my I pad and speaker with me. Makes folding clothes easier as I dance while doing the work. Y’all are serious business to me. Thanks for your talent, your energy, and perseverance. ‼️👏🏻🤗❤️🌹😘
One of the many impressive features of the band is how precisely they hold the tempo that Shaye sets at the start of the number. I have yet to hear a number where the band sped up or slowed it down. If you've ever dabbled in a band of any kind, you understand how difficult it is!
My son is studying at a UK conservatoire and I've heard a lot of very talented musicians ranging from teenagers to world class musicians and the one thing that really makes top notch musicians stand out is their timing. Sadly, I'm not a great musician but I know one when I hear one.
@@washingtongeraldodeoliveir8338 I make no claims whatsoever about being a music authority, but one thing I've noticed over my life is that even the best bands will often speed up a number as the song progresses. I'm not criticizing, only observing. However, I am PRAISING Tuba Skinny because they hold a tempo perfectly to my ear!
Many groups sound good because they all of the notes. This group not only play the right notes but have feeling. They really capture the groove and style of this music. Much more than many groups out there. BRAVO!
Since their early days of only busking, they have been all over many states and countries... Absolutely great music and great presence... Hope for them to be around for a long time..!
Thank you for sharing hidden music between Erica & shayne ,great audience including the dog thanks camera person keep smiling with lol politely & safely thanks !!!
Maravillosa formación, buenísima orquestación, asombroso repertorio de ese jazz antiguo, increíble que gente tan joven recuerde todos esos temas sentimentales de antaño. Que los dioses le conserven el virtuosismo interpretativo que los sitúa entre los grandes del jazz. que sigan los éxitos por siempre.
Tuba Skinny! I saw one of their street performances last time I was in New Orleans, and I've got the CD to prove it :D They're the epitome of what makes New Orleans such a unique and wonderful city; it is just saturated with music and joie de vivre, ready to embrace fun anywhere and at any time.
I can't play their music in my truck cruise control is broke and if I play their music, I will surely get a ticket. I have already been stopped once by a state man and fortunately their song was still playing when I rolled down my window and that brought on a conversation and found out that he loved their music and told me to drive on, but wait until I got home to put their music back on. Phew,.....that was close...
Amigos, soy argentino y los sigo por youtube desde hace un año... quiero decirles que hacen una música maravillosa, son excelentes músicos!!! les hago una sola observación... cuando filmen dejen que se vea la gente que baila porque eso es importante... es la reacción del público ante su música y es muy valioso!! genios!!!
Fantástico grupo este, que nos deliciam com esta bela música, única! Interessante a sempre presença belo "dingo" para ajudar na coreografia. Obrigado, pelas maravilhosas interpretações.
Great sound & video, Iam in my early 70's & of course getting into music seen in the 1960's, this sound brings back memories of seeing a band live in Leeds called the (Temperance Seven) similar sound brill,keep up the good work 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
This is music for all ages. It's the best music in the country. The only bad thing about is that i live in Georgia and would have to travel all the way to La. to hear it in person.
I dont understand how lots of people just walk past dont they realise there are loads of folk ( like me ) who would love to be there .Still thanks from England.
Tuba Skinny? Just some of the best street musicians it has been my pleasure to listen to here. Stunning. You just have to tap along; you can't not do so! GLORIOUS!!!!!! : )
The classic Dixieland sound. The classic Dixieland ensemble and the classic awesome musicianship. Doesn’t get any better than this.
The dog is their road manager.
Simple black folding chairs, little wooden table, cardboard signs, dog mascot chilling, everyone connected and blended together. wonderful
Did you see the couple doing the lindy hop haha!
"Maple Leaf Rag" is the epitome of "Rag Time" and Tuba Skinny plays a wonderful rendition of "Maple Leaf Rag". I love those two ladies who have stuck with "tuba Skinny" all these years.
I agree considering none of them where born at the time of the original and neither was I and I'm 63 😂

If ever I am feeling down I just listen to tuba skinny not down for long very uplifting well done you talented people
👌🌺👍
This was one of my late father's all-time favourites from his wild younger days; thank you for bringing it to life once again!
I especially love the dog in the foreground joining in on skiffle with his back leg!
So many happy memories of the French Quarter when I sailed to NO in an old boat. And what a cool dog!
a tuba, a cup of coffee, a dog and a bunch of true musicians can only bring us to Dixieland.
Thanks a bouquet Tuba Skinny.
YEP! The DOG is cool!
Music has no age and that's what's wonderful.
I marvel at music that is over 115 years old as well as music composed yesterday.
A life without music is hell.

Me too, mate, 73 here 😋

Some of the best music in New Orleans can be heard on Chartres, Royal, Bourbon and Frenchmen Street. The greatest Free Show in the World.

👌🌺👍
You're damn right about their collective harmony - it's amazing
Eight people (to say nothing of the dog)
Absolutely agree with you. “At the top of their art.”
Would like to hear a full set of drums.
A hundred years ago, EVERYONE knew this song.
Nice to see Tuba Skinny doing its best to bring it all back!
Excellent!!!
I am 52 years. The best music from the past I have ever heard. Keep it up, your talent makes our lives cooler, happier and more meaningful
I love how the dog takes an exact one minute tour around the band and then plops back down in the same spot. Hahaha!
What a refreshing Sound and Rhythm! Even in my 80th I like it very much.
Love the dancing couple. One hundred year old music still enjoyed. 😎👏👍
Tuba Skynny
Very super Musik 🎶
Very goooooood
👍 👍 🎶🎶🎶👏👏✌️✌️✌️✌️
Respect to the washboard player. As a drummer, I know he is underappreciated. Respect!!!!!!!!
I don't care if I die poor, as long as I can play music, I'll be happy. Especially this kind of music.
Tuba Skinny musicians don't care either 😄😌
Why would anyone want to die rich?
@@rogerpropes7129 exactly!
God damn... This groove, the whole mood everybody's in, the two couple dancing in the back... Just beautiful
Amazing that most of the band members can keep a straight face while playing. I smile every time I hear this band play a tune.
So much talent !!... and the dog , I love the touch it gives to the whole scene !
And THAT music lovers is the real deal....love it.
This was the first of Scot Joplin's music that I ever heard, back in 1948. I was hooked!!!!
C' est toute la musique que j' aime. Pas de chichi, de vrais musiciens qui n' ont pas l' air de se prendre trop la tête. Chapeau les Artistes.

Me too mate great music im 85 can listen to it all day
Yes, Polo! And the dog is so laid-back......
It's well good. And so laid back it almost falls over.
But a lot (like the start) is so on the beat, and that misses the point a little.
With all respect, "Dixieland" is not really what this is. "New Orleans Jazz" is.

Only in New Orleans. Hound dog is probably a body guard. Drummer is tired of holding drum, so she sits on it. No body is following sheet music. Truly odd combinations of instruments, but they always blend. You gotta love the south !
They are Buskers they dont need Music sheets .there Great at Improvisation,Come on there Bloody Amazing,They Can wake me everyday
The dog's name is Tupelo, and he guards the till. I would love to hear their version of the old song, Yellow Dog Blues.
Its a traditional ragtime orchestra with a guitar. Not that weird..
Not such an odd combination of instruments for Dixie Land Jazz down in the French Quarter but you're right on about that hound dog.
Tuba Skinny is no ordinary street band! They have a huge international following as well!
The world needs more of this!
Thanks from Australia!
I have to say, Shaye's playing, especially on her solos, is a study in musical interpretation and I mean feeling, timing and emphasis. She is a visual poem.
Yeah, Shaye is amazing. Fine coronetist. Excellent pianist. Amazing fiddler. Awesome accordionist!
And not difficult to look at either !
She’s a natural
@@Stevorific1 Forgot trombone
cool it frank
Hello,,, muy buenos los felicito de todo cora, que la trompeta esa señora. Y el perrito rascándose las pulgas muy original todo. Bendiciones muchachones 🇨🇷
This is the kind of dixieland that spreads true joy in the streets. Topclass
This is a great performance, I love it. What really sets it off for me was a small thing. That dog just fits perfectly.

WONDERFUL !!! I love this kind of music !!!
Truly a group of masters making music. Love their sound!
Even the dog is in on the act! With the flea scratch. Great music! Be sure to tip the dog!
Yeah, but he's off the beat with his scratching!
Phil C a clove of garlic a day keeps the fleas away !( and ticks)
@@randomroses1494 Ha!
Itchy the Dog
Doggie guards the kitty.
The trombone player is giving it his all and is gluing the ensemble together really well.
I'm 80 years old How Can anyone set still when there's a good Dixie land Band playing. Im use a walker to get around a i hear that my feet are going.👍👍👍👍👍😄😄😄😄
Love it, this was my Grandma'sfavorite song to play on the piano. She was still tickling the impression on this one when she passed away at the age of 92. God Bless.
Dog - "I've heard this SO many times before...."
With a good scratch of course.
Tupelo was Barnabus’s dog. Died last year.
The dog enjoys his life
What is the deal with the dog? Goes around dispensing fleas like he’s giving out weekly paychecks. Thats a great dog.
Tupelo was the mayor of Royal St....r.i.p. old fellow...🐕😢
What a pleasure, great!!!!
Jean from France
Tuba Skinny are my favourites! There sound is like no other and they continue to get better and better with each video. Thanks Raoul :)
Agree
When you dont like this type of music but these performers are outstanding :)
Great jazz!! Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Switzerland
I defy anyone not to tap their feet at this music it's raw bliss well done guys
Make a joyful noise...
Tried to sit still, but failed. Erika and her bass drum just slays me.
From England. I love this band, great musicianship.
Good stuff, the old style of jazz without electronic machines.
from the uk,and i love,good sound
This is simply wonderful music. Love the video dogs and wandering people. I do hope they come back to Australia some time. Thank you for making my day.
Your music makes my heart beat a litte longer...................Thank You Very Big...........
Absolutely Wonderful - I wish my Dad was alive to hear it!
How could you walk bye with that talent playing? Amazing
Love it. I wouldn't be able to stop myself from dancing if I were there watching.
sounds great!!! you guys bring a bit more sunshine in our lives!!!!!
I love this music and this band so much!

Thats fkn brilliant... if only the world could play in such harmony
Love this lineup, great relaxed atmosphere . Special mention to the great clarinet player .
+paacer Craig Flory on clarinet.
So sweet, so smooth.
And the Ole Dawg, wandering around and stopping for the ocasional scratch....
👍🎶👍🎶👍
I aspire to be like them, hopefully I can bring as much joy as they do!
LOVE HOW THE DOG GETS UP , SCRATCHES A FEW TIMES WHILE CIRCLING AROUND . AND ENDS UP RIGHT BACK WHERE IT STARTED FROM
Dog cycles!
franklin field maybe he like a little music too? The dog.
Yes! I loved his little tour through the band, making sure everyone was behaving properly. Then settles back near his previous spot.
I hate to write it, but Tupelo died last year, the trombonist, Barnabus Jones’s dog.
@@DanPurdy1 Such sad news, but I bet he had a great life!

That loud clapping y'all hear is Sir Scott Joplin, applauding from the Great Beyond.
Craig Florey really outdid himself on this one. Brilliant!!! Thanks Craig 😊
Never heard of them before but now I'm absolutely hooked! Brilliant!
so many different characters playing in this band and yet they all come together to play this piece to perfection! this is why i love playing music!
great musicians and they all look great!!bravo!!

One of them is hidden though.

Wow. Superb. Clarinet sounds fantastic! Shaye sounds great. Trombone is solid as a Big Dog! One of your best numbers. Quite swinging and impressive.
Shame you can't see the Trombone player! Fabulous band...
Love the way the dog gets up and scratches its fleas during the performance. made me chuckle. Love the Jazz
The music is great and the dog is happy. Thanks.
Played at the perfect tempo. What a great band.
Awsome musicians best in thel and for me I love them all
THIS is Ragtime, people. Wow. Swingin’ so fine. Tuba Skinny Smile. Yaaaaass!!
