One of the most famous of all New Orleans jazz clarinetists, Pete Fountain had the ability to play songs that he performed countless times (such as "Basin Street Blues") with so much enthusiasm that one would swear he had just discovered them. His style and most of his repertoire remained unchanged from the late '50s into the new millennium, yet he never sounded bored. Heavily influenced by Benny Goodman and Irving Fazola, Fountain began an important association with the Basin Street Six in 1950. In 1955, he was a member of the Dukes of Dixieland, but his big breakthrough came when started to be featured in Dixieland numbers on The Lawrence Welk Show during the late '50s. After he left, he moved back to New Orleans, opened his own club, and played there regularly until retiring from the nightclub business in early 2003.
Pete Fountainは、The Dukes of Dixielandのメンバーとしても楽曲をリリースしています。
