Trombone Shorty - Backatown (2010)
Super fun and energetic! As one youtube comment said, "There's no part of life that can't be improved by a horn section." Backatown has a great mix of more classic New Orleans jazz with modern jazz techniques. You can tell everyone had a lot of fun making this. The vocalists are also very good. Trombone Shorty also has an NPR Tiny Desk Concert featuring Orleans Ave that's really good.
Favorite tracks:
All of them, apparently. I had a lot of trouble with my favorite tracks because I realized halfway through I had listed every track as my favorite. So, whoops, I guess. Just listen to the whole thing. You won't regret it.
