The "Haricots Rouges" are not only the unassailable ambassadors of New Orleans jazz in France, but also probably the world's best-known French jazz band. Their material here is timeless and international: the great film themes. These Best New Artists - with a 60-year career and sales of over a million albums behind them - have preserved all the youthful freshness of their art, namely joie de vivre, irresistible swing and tenderness. Listening to this album makes one thing certain: their career shows great promise!
