Reefer Madness

by
Various Artists
By the time Stash came out with this LP, its 20th release, one would think that the label had run out of vintage drug and sex songs to reissue. However the quality of these performances is still pretty high and, although some of the musicians were quiet obscure, there are also selections from Charles "Cow Cow" Davenport, Buck Washington, Louis ...

Cab Calloway
Cab Calloway made such a large number of recordings that the laws of chance and the vagaries of the music industry generally conspire to create chaotic Calloway compilations composed of sensibly chosen and/or idiotically selected titles. Fortunately, Living Era's Hi-De-Hi! is a 98-percent worthwhile overview of material culled from Calloway's best ...

Don Redman
The second of two Don Redman LPs released by the Scottish Hep label has two alternate takes not included on the Classics CDs. Altoist/vocalist/arranger Don Redman led a fine big band during this era, even if they never really hit it big. Such numbers as "Doin' What I Please," "Nagasaki," and "Sophisticated Lady" are memorable, while the two-part ...

Original Soundtrack
The original soundtrack to Roy Mann's marijuana documentary Grass blends ganja-inspired and influenced rock and hip-hop with excerpts from government anti-drug films that reek of reefer madness. From Cab Calloway's "Reefer Man" to the Small Faces' "Itchycoo Park" to Peter Tosh's "Legalize It" to Method Man and Redman's "How High," the album is ...

Cab Calloway
Cab Calloway made a lot of records besides Minnie the Moocher. The best of these date from the first 15 years of his recording career. If you want to delve deeper than the standard thimbleful of over-circulated novelty hits, you might as well opt for JSP's affordably priced four-CD compilation Vol. 1: The Early Years 1930-1934. It contains every ...

Mills Blue Rhythm Band
Although somewhat forgotten, the Mills Blue Rhythm Band was one of the better jazz orchestras of the early 1930s. Classics has reissued all of the big band's recordings over five CDs. In its early days, the band did not have an excess of famous soloists (altoist Charlie Holmes, from the Luis Russell, band was the first "name" to join), but the ...

A Proper Introduction to Cab Calloway: Zah, Zuh, Zaz

Cab Calloway
Twenty-five Cab Calloway jams from the '30s and '40s when he had one of the most cooking bands this side of Ellington's or Armstrong's. It should be stated right from the jump that the compilers at Proper could care less whether the records they issue are representative of an artist's whole career, so those looking for something definitive in ...
