I am 97 1/2 yrs. old. I worked at "Nick's" in the village, in 1947-8, as a bartender. That is Cutty on the trombone! Some great players came to Nick's for the Sunday Jam Session.

Eddie Condon’s Band is the most Swingin Dixieland band ever. I absolutely think Cliff Leeman drives that band with a strong rhythmic back beat . His ride and splash cymbals has a dynamic feel that lifts each solo players ability to swing on every chorus they played.I played my drums with Jack Maheu’s Salt City Six Dixieland Band from 1966-1969. Wild Bill played cornet with The Salt City Six Dixieland Band for a short time . The most exciting time of my life.Cliff Leeman, George Wettling and Nick Fatool are my favorites.

Personnel: Wild BIll Davison, cornet; Edmond Hall, clarinet; Cutty Cutshall, trombone; Gene Schroeder, piano; Eddie Condon, leader/guitar; Bob Casey, string bass; Cliff Leeman, drums There is lots of traditional jazz or dixieland being played by bands today, but this particular style (known as "Chicago Jazz"), has pretty much disappeared, although there are people who can play in this style. Absolutely joyous music! The two tunes are Riverboat Shuffle (Hoagy Carmichael) and Fidgety Feet (Nick LaRocca/Harry Shields).

Davison (cornet) liked that I'm sure, since he always had stage fright accordin g to his biography. I know the personnel except bass and drums.

Don't know about the bass player but the drummer is definitely Cliff Leeman, one of the most underrated drummers of his era! Lots of drive, imagination, and in his later years a certain self-deprecatory humor in his solos.

it was a 20s to 30s Gibson tenor guitar, he played it for a long time, it's dixieland, so maybe it's just tradition

Not sure why the time constrictions are apparent. Horns didn't take the usual one or two full choruses each.

And further reflection, I answer my own question: Eddie wisely cut down on the length of piano and horn solos in order to keep a tension going throughout.

In a longer version of this clip you will see Kate Smith singing to the assembled ship crew. She introduces Eddie Condon at the beginning of this set. The clip is from a Television Broadcast of 'The Kate Smith Show'. That is why there were time restrictions on these numbers.

I think it's Cutty Cutshall on t-bone, Gene Schroeder on piano, and definitely Cliff Leeman on drums. Do not recognize the bassist. A damned good group, though Cliff, who had been a big band drummer in the 40's, was not yet the subtle artist that he became when he was older. In these years the great George Wettling was usually in the Condon drum chair.
