Edmond Hall albums as leader and sideman, including original LP liner notes on a finely re-mastered double
CD. ‘Petite Fleur’, ‘Rumpus On Rampart Street’, ‘ Teddy Buckner and the All Stars’ and ‘ Jazz at the Savoy’
plus selections from ‘Jazz at Storyville’ and ‘Edmond Hall in Buenos Aires’. With a few short spells running
his own band along the way, the late 1950’s finally saw Hall go freelance and form his own band. He was considered one of the great clarinetist
in the New Orleans tradition. According to great supporter Nat Hentoff in his liner notes for ‘Rumpus On Rampart Street’, ‘he is playing the hottest
clarinet in contemporary jazz’. A gentle and polite individual off stage he became a deeply swinging and intensely emotional improviser once he
had his clarinet in his hands. A long time sideman, Hall was happiest as his own leader where his love of
improvisation could take full flight. [Item Code: 66475 2-CD: $19.00]

a double CD set. ‘For You, For Me, For Evermore’, ‘Sings The Blues’, ‘The Greatest Songs Ever Swung’ and ‘’Let Me Love You’. These four classic,
hard to find albums, recorded between 1956 and 1959 all allude to the emergence of a bright new singing star that was Morgana King. With a four
octave voice, Morgana was hard for critics to categorize, was she jazz or something else. These early albums
show what a great singing talent Morgana was and (indeed still is) as she moves with consummate ease from
jazz classics to blues to standards from the Great American Songbook. [Item Code: 66476 2-CD: $19.00]
