After You've Gone: Dixieland Gipsy Band


From Denmark's Dixieland Gipsyband:
Intense violin solos, crack guitar playing and spirited, charming vocals poetically united with banjo, double bass, crisp harmonica and musical saw. The Dixieland Gipsy Band delivers a fascinating, bold and seductive experience.
A bomb of traditional jazz and swing music of the 1930's and 1940's, it hits right in the heart, leaving splinters of Reinhardt, Grapelli, Armstrong, Asmussen, Mathiesen, Thielemans, Slim and Slam, making us all yell as one: "ohhhh yeahh... and ONE MORE TIME!"

Very curious about the black & white photo of four people that you posted after Lucy Woodward. I think I may know the woman on the left. Are these people you know?
