Original Dixieland Jazz Band & Louisiana Five (Fountain). Side one features what are possibly the ODJB's least-known recordings, the 1917 vertical-groove Aeolian-Vocalions. I find them much more enjoyable than the well-known Victors. The Victors tend to be relentlessly loud, fast, and repetitive. Here the band is relaxed, and there is much more variety of texture and dynamics. If that intrigues you, the Aeolian-Vocalions are also on this CD.

Side two is a selection of 1919 Emerson recordings by the Louisiana Five. I love this band far more than they deserve, mostly because I love New Orleans clarinetists, and Alcide Nunez's clarinet is the lead instrument here. (The Louisiana Five didn't use a trumpet, except at one Columbia session.) Transfers of all the material is by John R.T. Davies.

Sounds like an endorsement of the vinyl. If I see this set in the local store today I'll probably pick it up.

Fine image by Roberto Masotti from his series "You Turned the Table On Me". I used one from the series for Roscoe's "Nonaah".

Masotti is brilliant.

Jo Jones: "The Main Man" (Pablo)

One of the best Pablo blowing sessions (imo), and one that's usually overlooked.

Jo Jones' playing was subtle, graceful, and had a true sense of dynamics.

 

 

 

to tell u the thruth ive seen a lot of pablos but never this one

[aparxa]

 

Great music!

Unfortunately, In The Beginning Vol. 1 (CTI 6065) has a faulty pressing on Side B, where you can listen to Muligan/Baker at Carnegie Hall Vol. 2 (CTI 6055) I will not go back to Glasgow to get a £4 refund!

It is a generally overlooked Pablo release, and contains better music than many of the more common ones.

One of the best box sets ever. They did screw up by omitting four takes of "Marmaduke". They included them later on Bird Encores Vol. 2, but it's still a great set.
