This just in:

"I am truly astonished. When I first heard Lowe’s previous collection, American Pop from Minstrel to Mojo I thought that it was the finest body of American pop music that I’d ever heard – both in terms of sound quality and choice of music. But now he’s exceeded himself. This new collection is even richer and sounds even better. I know that I’m parroting Francis Davis but he’s right: he has “forced us to rethink everything we ‘know” about jazz” - but I’ll add that he's also forced us to question what we know about pop, country, and the blues as well. He has historicized pop music brilliantly…and the fact that he did it, and not one of the “big” recording companies who are sitting on treasures of American music, is all the more astonishing. This collection should be in every household, or at the least in every library and school. Bravo! Encore!”

"As did the first set, Allen Lowe's follow-up release demonstrates that it is possible to compile an extraordinary collection of historic jazz recordings without including the great Wynton Marsalis.

must have been an oversight - I'll put him in the next volume - or maybe I'll use his Buddy Bolden re-creation-
