Paul Robeson Sings "Ol' Man River" & Other Favorites

Paul Robeson Sings "Ol' Man River" & Other Favorites (1972) more music like this

by Paul Robeson

Unlike many Paul Robeson collections of recordings that have been licensed or otherwise obtained and reissued by small labels, this one comes from EMI and purports to be "a collection of his greatest hits." That isn't strictly true, if only because Robeson had few "hits" in the accepted sense, but the 20-track, hour-long album is a good sampler of ...

Swing Guitar Masterpieces 1937-1957 (1937) more music like this

by Oscar Alemán

Oscar Alemán is one of the great unknown talents in jazz history. A brilliant guitarist who sounded very close to Django Reinhardt at times, Alemán was overshadowed in Europe by Reinhardt in the 1930s and spent much of the rest of his career in his native Argentina, remaining well known only in that country. This 1998 double CD from Dave Grisman ...

Satchmo: A Musical Autobiography

Satchmo: A Musical Autobiography (1957) more music like this

by Louis Armstrong

Louis Armstrong's Satchmo: A Musical Autobiography was recorded as an oral memoir (with overdubbed background piano by Billy Kyle) combined with re-creations of many of his memorable recordings, as well as a few of the originals. Although such a project had the potential to become trite, the effort comes off very well indeed. This three-CD reissue ...
