Dan Pawson’s ARTESIAN HALL STOMPERS in the 60’s -
The Forgotten Recordings.
By Dave Senior (Published in the Jazz Gazette 2004)

This should be a footnote but this story is so worth mentioning, crucially actually, that it
comes as a sort of preface…

After the following article about the ‘forgotten recordings’ appeared in the Jazz Gazette, it came
to the notice of ‘Lord’ Richard Ekins who then contacted me to know more. I remembered Richard
very well because we were good friends back in the 60’s. In fact he played trumpet in and around 
Birmingham and we played together often. Richard was a fervent New Orleans fan and was lucky enough
to have spent quite a lot of time there during this period. In fact he was so dedicated to the
cause of encouraging and stimulating the music he loved, Richard set up his own record label
‘La Croix Records' and issued several prestigious sessions of both British and New Orleans
musicians. The famous Kid Thomas Band recorded live in 1968 at Kohlman’s Tavern in New Orleans was
one of Richard’s projects, as well as Louis Nelson and Dan Pawson with Barry Martyn’s Band recorded
in the U.K. The connection here is that, like Dan Pawson, ‘Lord’ Richard was very inspired by New
Orleans trumpeter DeDe ‘La Croix’ Pierce. In turn, Richard was influenced by and greatly admired
Dan. That’s often how it works and thanks goodness it does…
As a result of this chance happening, Richard decided that he would like to issue a tribute to Dan
Pawson (who died in 2002). The idea was to include some of this early ‘forgotten’ Artesian Hall
Stompers material together with a compilation of other previously issued recordings. The series
will eventually include more CDs. Meanwhile, the good news at the time of writing this note is that
the first one has been issued on 504/La Croix (CD93)
“DAN PAWSON 1966 – 1971 A Tribute”. For me, this was a milestone for many reasons and I still stand by my words when I say that this music, in its context, was just about as ‘authentic’ as you could get. It was of its time and in an uncanny way hard to distinguish from the real thing. I have said elsewhere that I have not played New Orleans jazz with such ‘purity’ anywhere or anytime since those days… and probably never will, despite my enduring enjoyment of playing N.O. style jazz.                                                    Dave Senior
