Dan Barrett & Al Jenkins
Trombonist Al Jenkins, who recorded with Doc Evans in the late 1940s and Art Hodes in 1956, spent much of his career playing either in the Midwest or in Los Angeles and never achieved much fame. He was an early influence on Dan Barrett's style, so in 1993, the younger trombonist persuaded Jenkins to join him on his record date. As it turned out, ...

Delmark has a knack for finding gifted improvisers who aren't huge names in the jazz world but who deserve exposure nonetheless. In the late 1990s, one such improviser was Norrie Cox, a veteran Dixieland clarinetist who grew up in England but eventually ended up living in Milwaukee and becoming part of the Wisconsin jazz scene. This pleasing 1999 ...

Wingy Manone
Wingy Manone made these 24 good time small-band swing recordings for the Vocalion, Okeh, Banner, Perfect and Bluebird imprints between January 15, 1935 and July 7, 1936, cheerfully rasping the Tin Pan Alley lyrics, blowing his trumpet and egging the band on in the manner of Louis Armstrong or Fats Waller. The Waller connection is most evident in ...

by
Wingy Manone & His Orchestra
You know what? Wingy Manone's best records were instrumental. That doesn't mean he wasn't a great singer. It's more of a commentary on the excellent bands he led, and the apparent ease with which the players interacted. Take for example the OKeh session of October 3, 1934. You've got Wingy the one-armed trumpeter, a New Orleans clarinetist by the ...

The star of Viva Cugat! to many is the audiophile quality of this entry in Mercury's "Perfect Presence Sound Series." Indeed, the gatefold liners and beautiful packaging, not to mention the glories reaped from the lost art of microphone placement, make it a splendor of stereophonic experimentation. Risking nothing, the all-instrumental material ...

Pops and Prado

by
Perez Prado Orchestra
Pops and Prado is deceptive. At first glance it appears to be a regression to the "cha cha-fication" of gringo tunes. It is erratic for a Prado album, from the dull "Manhattan" to the highly infectious "Three Little Words" and "You're Driving Me Crazy!" But the use of two organs, or double the signature sound of the next phase of Prado, is ...
