Thank you so much
ReplyDeletewunderbar! but where, I ask through my gratitude, are the more unusual items from 1929? Moten made some very good and non-routine recordings in the year of the crash . . .
ReplyDeleteBUt suddenly so much of him again already, Oi!
in response to anonymous, the initial post was a mistake, the 1929-1930 folder has been added here and the 1930-1932 post follows. please note the folders have been altered.
ReplyDeleteEven more Wunderbar!
ReplyDeleteDelighted to have the intervening numbers!!!
Yipppeeeeeee!!!

the same anonymous as above
Some person of knowledge and good taste who asked for Jab Jones postings (there are also four Jones tracks under the name Poor Jab on which Jones sings rather than playing jug or doing the piano thing he did with John Estes and Yank Rachel in 1929) asked in a posting about another of these three wonders of the universe about Basie. The second pianist on Michigan Rag is Bennie's nephew Bus(ter Moten) who joined the band from Terrific Stomp onward and commonly soloed on accordion. Bus's postwar recordings on Capitol indicate a not very distinctive swing style. As for Bennie .... see previous posting (I was the anonymous above)
ReplyDeleteAh, part two is down. Do you mind?
ReplyDeleteThanks again!
