(Collective Personnel: Mel Powell, Cozy Cole, Lloyd Shafer Orchestra, Xavier Cugat) [1946] Jo Stafford must be one of the most loved and prolific American singers of the 1940s and fifties. Originally a member of Tommy Dorsey’s Pied Pipers singing group she graduated to solo artist with numerous hits. During World War II she made a series of V-disc recordings which were shipped to servicemen in all over the world which helped her to become ‘G.I. Jo’, the soldiers ‘girl next door’. The ‘live’ recordings on this compact disc were made with Lloyd Shafer And His Orchestra, Carl Kress And His Orchestra, Helen Carroll And The Satisfiers, Benny Goodman, Mel Powell and Cozy Cole form a trio and there are contributions from Bob Eberly and Xavier Cugat at The Supper Club during February, March and April 1946 for The Armed Forces Radio service.

At the suggestion of drummer Pam Pameijer, leader of the repertory recording band, the New Jazz Wizards, a group of outstanding musicians was assembled to pay tribute to this great man and jazz icon. The result was a recording which is both joyous and respectful.

And numbers by Lionel Hampton, Miles Davis (out of Eddie Vinson) and Freddie Hubbard.

David Miller keeps it real on his fifth recording as a leader with a recording that gives the standard jazz trio sound a punch and a fresh feel. The artists in this trio are rich in experience and have played with the likes of Art Pepper, James Moody, Maynard Ferguson, Joe Pass, Benny Goodman, Jules Brouusard, and Sly Stone, to name a few. Bass player Mario Suraci has played with Mel Torme, Frank Sinatra, and Elvis Presley. 66343 CD: $16.00] 555 MARTY NAU GROUP MOOD EBONY Slipped Disc • As Long As I Live • Smoke Dreams • Doctor Tee • Three In One • Night In Tunisia • Ballad For Hank • Bossa For Eddie • Blues For Benny • You Came Into My Life (Personnel: Scott Silbert, Robert Redd, Wade Beach, Tommy Cecil, Steve Novesel, Chuck Redd, Brooks Tegler) [2010] Critically acclaimed, with great reviews for his last recording due to his Phil Woods-like skills on the saxophone, Marty Nau proved to all to be the real deal. Here, he presents a multiclarinet-led recording with new compositions from the great Phil Woods. Nau is a clarinet master (and a damn good saxophonist) who has recorded a masterpiece. He takes the clarinet through its paces from A to Z, employing four or five clarinets through the re-recording process—but this is not a gimmick. It works as a bona fide musical device. A highly active and sought-after jazz alto saxophone player in the DC area, Nau has performed with the National Symphony, Richmond Symphony, Dizzy Gillespie, Eddie Daniels, Stanley Turrentine, Joe Williams, Rosemary Clooney, Nancy Wilson, Maureen McGovern, Snooky Young, and many others. He was also a staple with the famous Navy Commodores.

(a • Bringing Home The Bacon (b) • Shine (Personnel: Ross Gorman, Henry Busse, Frank Siegrist, Hale Byers, Ferde Grofe, more) (vocal; a- Billy Murray; b- Vernon Dalhart and Ed Smalle) [1922-1924] The Virginians was a ten-man, compact version of Paul Whiteman’s Orchestra, that functioned as a “house band” at Victor Records between 1922 and 1924. They made dozens of eminently danceable, peppy, jazzy records, dispensing what we think of today as quintessential “Roaring Twenties” music, just as that decade was getting under way. Clarinetist Ross Gorman led the band, and gave it much of its “hot” character with his excellent playing; trumpeter Henry Busse and pianist/arranger Ferdie Grofe also contributed strongly. Early versions of many classic tunes are heard on this CD, such as “Memphis Blues,” “Rose of the Rio Grande,” “Farewell Blues,” “Shine,” “Sister Kate” and George Gershwin’s “Yankee Doodle Blues.” These 88-year-old original 78s were unearthed recently in pristine, never-played condition. You will be astounded by their sonic crispness and fidelity on this CD, terms not often applied to recordings from the pre-electrical (acoustic) era of audio technology. This is fun, terrific and highly listenable music, shining brightly from a time almost beyond living memory. Fans of the HBO series “Boardwalk Empire” should feel right at home with it. We recommend “The Virginians” for dinner parties! Vintage fashion shows! Dances! [Item Code: 66465 CD: $14.00] TCB 2222 ALBERT MANGELSDORFF FRANCOIS JEANNEAU SWISS RADIO DAYS, VOL. 22 Part 1 • Part 2 • Le Lynx • Suite Eolienne (Personnel: Klaus Koenig, Peter Frei, Peter Schmidlin, Francois Jeanneau, Pierre Favre) [1972•1979] Both Albert Mangelsdorff & Francois Jeanneau were guests on Jazz Live, and this new release in the Swiss Radio Days series presents some examples of their excellent appearances. The first time Mangelsdorff appeared, in 1967, the group played a series of standards in the mainstream style. In 1972, however, he suggested that they play two half-hour sets without any specific written material, and the evening was both relaxed and exciting. A recording of that concert’s first set is included here. Janneau was the first Frenchman invited for a Jazz Live concert. He sent a series of themes, and said that it was free music. But the themes definitely had harmony structures, as well as a form. The group was excited by this challenge of filtering unknown results from very traditional pieces, accepting the composed patterns solely as a general reference point and not as binding structures [Item Code: 66440 CD: $13.00] 31 worldsrecords.com (800) 742-6663 S p r i n g 2 0 1 1 31
