The celebrated jazz clarinetist Sidney Bechet had a lifelong affinity with Europe, making his first visit there in 1919 and finally settling in France in the late 1940s. These recordings, made both with a trio consisting of Louis Armstrong's first wife Lil on piano and Zutty Singleton on drums, and with the French bandleader Claude Luter, display Bechet's skills as a soloist and ensemble player. In a set that ranges from the ragtime of "Big Butter and Egg Man" and the bluesy "Rockin' Chair" to the sophisticated medley of tunes from the musical SHOWBOAT.
Volume 16 of the recordings of Sidney Bechet opens with the remaining items taped during a concert at "Salle Pleyel" in Paris. The following date by a trio ranks among the most remarkable sessions Bechet made that year. Most of the songs stem from Louis Sidney Bechet 1952, Vol. 2 Songs | 1. | House Rent Blues | $0.99 | |

1952, Vol. 2 album
$19.39
There are much better annotated Pee Wee Crayton anthologies out there, but the dark horse import Blues After Hours offers an extremely well-rounded collection of material, compiling sides from Crayton's memorable stints at both the Modern and Imperial labels (a feat that has yet to be accomplished by any domestic single-CD reissue of Crayton's work). This is a great starting point for blues guitar fans -- especially Texas- and West Coast-style enthusiasts -- who may be unfamiliar with Crayton's often overlooked career. The seven instrumentals alone (including the classics "Blues After Hours," "Texas Hop," and "Poppa Stoppa") are worth the price of admission, and the vocal cuts are just as impressive, with a young Crayton showing off his keen ability to switch from "over the top blues shouter" mode to "dapper R&B crooner" mode at the drop of a downbeat. In addition to the tracks culled from the Modern and Imperial sessions (originally recorded between 1947 and 1955), Blues After Hours includes "The Telephone Is Ringing," a slow blues that Crayton cut for Vee-Jay in 1956. Ignore the skimpy liner notes and the cheap cover art; the songs assembled in this package are all first-rate, and they represent an ...
| | Hoppy Kamiyama Havel City/No One Is There CD (2004)
1952, Vol. 2 CD music
$10.09
Gods have trembled at the sound of Bill Laswell's bass. The legendary master of the low end has always brought the skill of a jazz master and the soul of a reggae dub seer into his post-everything playing, which has extended from working with Jah Wobble to remixing Miles Davis. Paired with quirky Japanese keyboardist Hoppy Kamiyama, one would expect this album to feature both attempting to out-freak the other in a dense sonic stew. Quite to the contrary, these players know when to let the other work. And more impressively, they leave ample room for the drumming of one Kiyohiko Senba, whose history with Japanese popsters Cornelius and Soukichi Kina barely hinted at the stellar playing found on the tumultuous end of "Azlo." Throughout each song, Senba rapidly switches from pan-everywhere tappings to effortless jazz swing or hyper-kinetic explosions at a moment's notice. That anyone can keep up with Laswell's molten lower register is impressive. The fact that it often appears to be Senba who is driving the nimble-fingered bassist is nothing short of astounding. They lock into a groove that sounds like it could ride forever, only for one of the pair to do a quick fake and the chase to resume. Through all this, Kamiyama stays on the sidelines, refereeing the match with light touches that only sparingly invade the playing field, the exception being the liquid funk rev-up on "Sad Emission." Fans of both Laswell and Kamiyama should be happy with this release. And expect followers from both sides to discover a new hero in ...
| | Willis Jackson After Hours CD (2004)
1952, Vol. 2 music CDs
$9.59
Like Arnett Cobb, Willis "Gator" Jackson was a hard-blowing tenor saxophonist who had no problem making the transition from the honker school of the '40s and early '50s to the soul-jazz and organ combos of the late '50s and '60s. The '60s, in fact, were an extremely productive time for Jackson, who recorded for Prestige throughout that decade and got into the studio often. A 79-minute CD that Fantasy assembled in 2004, After Hours offers two of Jackson's '60s LPs back to back: 1963's Loose and 1967's Soul Grabber (both of which employ Carl Wilson on organ and underscore Jackson's fondness for the Hammond B-3). While Soul Grabber is heard in its entirety, one of the songs from Loose ("Y'all") was omitted due to space limitations. During the '60s, Jackson wasn't afraid to look in a variety of places for material -- his repertoire ranged from original compositions to Tin Pan Alley to Burt Bacharach/Hal David, ...
