Buddy Bolden's Rag

Buddy Bolden's Rag (subtitled [100 Years of Jazz]) is an album by the American jazz trumpeter Malachi Thompson, recorded and released by the Delmark label in 1995.

Reception
AllMusic reviewer Alex Henderson stated: "On Buddy Bolden's Rag, Thompson and his band Africa Brass salute Bolden in an unconventional way; instead of playing traditional New Orleans jazz, they provide inside/outside post-bop that acknowledges Crescent City brass bands as well as avant-garde and AACM jazz. Thompson looks back on jazz's early history but does so without being the least bit dogmatic about it, and the result is a very enriching and unpredictable CD".
