I Love Dixie Blues was recorded live in New Orleans, not only with the Strangers but with a brass section to give the music the feel of authentic dixieland jazz.

Of course, it helps that Hag has picked a selection of songs that emphasizes these strengths, such as his own anthem "Everybody's Had the Blues," "Way Down Yonder in New Orleans," "Lovesick Blues," and "The Emptiest Arms in the World."

He should have known that the music itself tells the story well enough. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi
