Ron S Posted July 14, 2008 Report Posted July 14, 2008 (edited) The darn thing doesn't go back far enough for me - it stops in '46. Me too. And I think it would have been interesting. Try this site: http://www.joshhosler.biz/numberOneInHistory/selectMonth.htm It SHOULD cover most organissimo members--goes back to the 1890s. Not sure that's far back enough to cover Allen Lowe, however. Edited July 14, 2008 by Ron S Quote

BillF Posted July 14, 2008 Report Posted July 14, 2008 Muggsy Spanier's Ragtime Band cut some sides around my birthday, and Charlie Christian was recording with Benny Goodman. It was a busy time for boogie pianists in the recording studios, too. Quote

GA Russell Posted July 14, 2008 Report Posted July 14, 2008 I went to Ron's site, which lists all of them on one page per date. I have heard of only one song post-1988. That's twenty years of being out of touch! Quote
Jazzmoose Posted July 14, 2008 Report Posted July 14, 2008 I was shocked to see all the "never heard of it" comments from supposed music fans. Then I went to the site and entered my birthday. You guessed it, it was a song that (thankfully!) I've never heard of: April Love by Pat Boone. Quote
