Mainly using a sextet that also features trombonist John "Streamling" Ewing and clarinetist Joe Darensbourg, Buckner jams through 18 songs that Armstrong recorded in the 1920s and '30s and generally avoids Armstrong's later hits.

This album will particularly satisfy Dixieland fans. ~ Scott Yanow Personnel includes: Teddy ...

Fascinating Rhythm: A Tribute To The Musical Genius Of Cole Porter, George Gershwin, And Richard Rogers, Volume 1 buy CD music John Lewis and Hank Jones recorded a handful of duo piano albums during their careers and this 1979 studio session marks their final meeting, although the cover photo gives the impression that it is a concert. Issued as a direct-to-disc LP by Toshiba-EMI in Japan, the program is dominated by Lewis' originals, with bassist George Duvivier and drummer Shelly Manne added on four of the six tracks. Lewis and Jones are heard as a duo in the elegant "P.O.V." and a relaxed interpretation of "All the Things You Are." Each pianist also has a solo feature with the rhythm section; Jones offers an easygoing take of "Oh, Look at Me Now," while Lewis includes his playful "Sacha's March." Perhaps the most unusual track is Lewis' "Marchin'," which he composed as a part of his score for a Broadway musical about Mahalia Jackson and also served as the theme song to the duo's series of concerts in Japan during their 1979 tour. Since this limited-edition LP was only issued in Japan, it will not be particularly easy to acquire. ~ Ken Dryden

Jon Nagourney had a flurry of activity recording as a leader from the late '80s into the mid-'90s, with three CDs for Albert Marx-owned labels. This outing was his second release, a studio date with pianist Kenny Barron, bassist John Clayton, and drummer Dick Berk. The vibraphonist chose a suitable program, including a few songs that were infrequently recorded, such as Horace Silver's "The Back Beat" and the upbeat "This Time the Dream's on Me." The quartet also delves into familiar territory like "Lazy Bird" and "Confirmation" with gusto. The leader's two originals are enjoyable, including the laid-back Latin-flavored "A Song for Marion" and the perky blues line "Snags on the Line." Barron contributed "Tragic Magic," a driving work that features him prominently. Nagourney's relatively soft touch on his instrument is buoyed by Barron's inventive accompaniment. Sadly, all of Jon Nagourney's work for Trend and Discovery disappeared from print with the demise of the two labels following the death of Albert Marx. ~ Ken Dryden Personnel: Jon Nagourney (vibraphone).
