From the muted trombone opening of "My Blue Heaven," the Cangelosi Cards dare listeners not to smile at the band's charming New Orleans jazz sound (Go Saints!). Every Monday night, the ensemble resurrects the Dixieland style for the audience at Banjo Jim's. With its playful clarinet, mischievous violin, and sweet, warbled vocals courtesy of singer Tamar Korn, this track captures all of the winsome qualities of early jazz.
