BackDixieland Crackerjacks,
playing Original Dixieland One-Step. Recorded April 21. 2007 in Lekkerkerk.
Michel Muller - trumpet
Selena Kuiper - trombone
Bert Brandsma - clarinet
Koos Greven - banjo
Ray Vanderhooft - drums
Henk Haverhoek - bass
This one was recorded before a live audience of over 1000 people. It was an evening with very varried entertainment, a modern jazz combo, a big choir, a female choir and a group in traditional dutch clothing also shared the bill. The traditional dutch clothing can be seen in the background on the main stage.
Because of the superb acoustics of the hall and the power the band is able to give, it was possible to play this concert without amplification, thats why you are able to hear this great natural balanced sound quality.
Since 2004 Henk Haverhoek plays bass in the Dixieland Crackerjacks concert band. He played with many famous musicians like: Ben Webster (Last gig and last record of Big Ben) , Dexter Gordon, Ray Nance-Frank Rosolino, Max Roach, Joe Pass, Joe Henderson, Lee Konitz, Don Byas, Eddy Lockjaw Davis, Jean 'Toots' Tielemans, Benny Carter, Illinois Jacquet, and many , many others.
He plays on the Crackerjacks most recent album, The Caribbean Suite as well.
Ray Vanderhooft is since 2000 regular drummer in the band, his first album was I'll See You In My Dreams.

If you like, you can have a look on few of our videos by searching for Manon Guerin. I'm curious to hear your knowledgeable opinion about our band...
Again, I really love your traditional sound!

Excellent traditional band! We are unfortunately not so many to play Dixieland in Canada although we can find some good ones.
Bravo!
