The Music Playground Presents The Hot Sardines' "St. James Infirmary" Live on PopMatters

This month's installment of "The Music Playground Presents" features The Hot Sardines, a band that has gained a reputation for putting on unforgettably wild live shows all around New York City - and soon, the world. In fact, they have been invited to represent New York in front of 25,000 people during a nighttime set at the 2012 Festival d'Île de France in Paris. The Hot Sardines' uniqueness lies in the fact that they get people both young and old dancing their asses off, by playing pop music that was written a century ago. Their concerts consist of all-out renditions of hot jazz numbers, New Orleans jazz standards, fever-paced tap dancing, and foot-stomping mayhem.

With groups like this still tearing up stages, the true heart and soul of jazz will never die. Thanks the gods!

[@mowgli553]

There is nothing but jazz and blues

[@1234lavaking]

Man that trumpet solo at the intro, that guy knows his way around a plunger. Bravo.

[@TomLongusa]

Pure gold... and played like the funeral march/dirge it's supposed to be!

[@aleiva101]

That's a hell of a drum roll. And that clarinet solo..............

[@marioesposito8505]

wow great version of this song!!

[@heinbezuidenhout9021]

A unique discovery for a music sensation that I've been looking for in almost a decade and could never find, ... 'till now. It is something that one would experience in the movies and the music (#Benjamin Rikhoff took the words right out of my mouth). This is something I would gladly come back to listen to every day, smokey cigar, fedora and just admiring the music. *****
