The Mound City Blue Blowers, an American jazz band, released their self-titled album in 1992. The album is a compilation of their most popular songs from the 1920s and 1930s, and it showcases their unique blend of musical styles.

The album starts with "Hello Lola," a lively tune that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band's signature sound is evident in every song, with their use of unconventional instruments like the kazoo and washboard adding a playful touch to the music.
