Together Again! (1963 Reunion with Lionel Hampton, Teddy Wilson & Gene Krupa)

Together Again! (1963 Reunion with Lionel Hampton, Teddy Wilson & Gene Krupa) (1963) more music like this

by Benny Goodman/Lionel Hampton/Gene Krupa/Teddy Wilson

The music on this CD has been reissued several times, including once previously on a Bluebird CD. This was the first full reunion in the studios of the Benny Goodman Quartet (featuring the clarinetist, vibraphonist Lionel Hampton, pianist Teddy Wilson, and drummer Gene Krupa), and although they would get together on an infrequent basis over the ...

The Firehouse Five Plus Two Story (1949) more music like this

by Firehouse Five Plus Two

This double CD reissues the first three LPs by the Firehouse Five Plus Two, a very popular Dixieland group in the 1950s. In addition to trombonist Ward Kimball (who occasionally lets loose on a siren), the main soloists are generally trumpeter Danny Alguire and either Clarke Mallery, Tom Sharpsteen, or George Probert on clarinet. The spirited ...

The Essential Glenn Miller

The Essential Glenn Miller (1939) more music like this

by Glenn Miller

Glenn Miller's 1939-1942 Victor recordings have been reissued a countless number of times in many different ways through the years. This two-CD set does an excellent job of repackaging all of his hits plus a variety of vocal numbers in chronological order. The 47 selections sum up Miller's legacy quite well, making this a definitive set for ...

The Original Recordings [Camden 1999]

The Original Recordings [Camden 1999] (1999) more music like this

by Glenn Miller & His Orchestra

A very odd budget package, as it contains no big hits. But it's still all classic Glenn Miller, with tracks like "Running Wild" sitting alongside oddball covers like "And the Angels Sing" and "Circiribin," and smoothies like "My Reverie" and "Blue Evening." There's no rhyme or reason to this set, but it's a nice budget collection of big-band tunes ...

Chesterfield Broadcasts

Chesterfield Broadcasts (2003) more music like this

by Glenn Miller & the Andrews Sisters

Although Glenn Miller & His Orchestra get first billing on this two-CD set, 25 of the 35 selections are features for the Andrews Sisters. The music is taken from the earliest Glenn Miller Chesterfield Broadcasts, shows that had the always-cheerful Andrews Sisters as the regular guests. After March 1940, it was decided that Miller (whose band had ...

The Wild Jazz Age [Collectables]

The Wild Jazz Age [Collectables] (2000) more music like this

by Wilbur DeParis

The Wilbur DeParis band had undergone two major changes by the time it recorded these two albums in 1960. Its longtime clarinetist, Omer Simeon, had died and was replaced by Garvin Bushell (who is heard on clarinet, piccolo, and bassoon). And cornetist Sidney DeParis' increasingly erratic health resulted in Doc Cheatham being added on second ...

Sunrise Serenade [Living Era] (2002) more music like this

by Frankie Carle and His Orchestra

Francis Nunzio Carlone, professionally known as Frankie Carle (1903-2001), was a popular pianist whose sweet dance band rose to prominence during the 1940s, followed by a second wave of popularity in the easy listening market throughout the 1950s. Just months after his passing, Living Era assembled a splendid tribute to this accomplished ...

New Orleans: The Living Legends

New Orleans: The Living Legends (1961) more music like this

by The Louis Cottrell Trio

When the Riverside label undertook a series of recordings of some of the living legends of New Orleans, one who was asked to contribute his talents was Louis Cottrell, Jr. Cottrell certainly filled that bill. An important figure in the history of traditional jazz in New Orleans, he was a virtuoso on both the clarinet and tenor saxophone, playing ...

Runnin' Wild

Runnin' Wild (1973) more music like this

by Teddy Wilson

Black Lion has reissued several Teddy Wilson sessions on CD, but this one is by far the most exciting. Recorded live at the 1973 Montreux Jazz Festival, Wilson plays some surprisingly extroverted solos, even starting "One O'Clock Jump" off with some torrid boogie-woogie. The majority of the standards are taken at faster than usual paces with ...

Swing Time (1999) more music like this

by Glenn Miller

I've always wondered how bands can keep the name of a leader long after he's dead. That is the case with this humdrum recording of tunes that Miller made famous when he was still breathing. At best, it's deceptive, at worst it's fraud. If you're looking for vintage recordings, look elsewhere. Tim Sheridan, All Music Guide

This Is Jazz, Vol. 4 (1996) more music like this

by Benny Goodman

This Is Jazz, Vol. 4 isn't an ideal overview of Benny Goodman's seminal Columbia recordings, but it isn't bad, either. Many of the featured 16 songs are among Goodman's very best, giving novices a good idea of the sound, style and depth of his music, even if it doesn't provide an ideal context. Nevertheless, This Is Jazz doesn't intend to provide ...

Here We Go Again (1993) more music like this

by Glenn Miller

Ghost bands dot the jazz circuit, as the territory is fertile for listeners who want to wax nostalgic on music the way it was. Larry O'Brien and Bob Bonis collaborated in 1992 to revive the sound of the Glenn Miller Orchestra by playing their original charts on these selections. They should be given kudos for avoiding the most overdone hits, ...

It's Me (2003) more music like this

by Abbey Lincoln

In a return to the orchestrated settings that she had explored nearly a decade earlier on A Turtle's Dream, Lincoln performs a set rich in variety, with plenty of original tunes that more than hold their own amidst a scattering of classic standards. Whether working with or without strings, she maintains a sophisticated and intimate tunefulness; ...

The Essential Vic Dickenson (1995) more music like this

by Vic Dickenson

This single CD reissues ten of the dozen songs originally on a double LP of the same name. Trombonist Vic Dickenson did not get to lead that many sessions, and he is generous in allocating solo space on these mainstream sessions. Trumpeters Ruby Braff and/or Shad Collins along with the distinctive clarinetist Edmond Hall and pianist Sir Charles ...

Rhythm Is My Business (1962) more music like this

by Ella Fitzgerald

Organist Bill Doggett had a rare chance on this album to write swinging charts for a big band. Ella Fitzgerald is in the spotlight throughout, mostly singing swing-era songs along with a couple of newer pieces, such as "Hallelujah I Love Him So" and "No Moon at All." "I Can't Face the Music" is the longest performance at 5:01, and all but three of ...

Hampton, on vibes only, is caught in a variety of settings from small ensemble to big band, playing many of the most famous tunes in his career. The sound ...
