| | Count Basie Blues By Basie/Dance Parade CD Count Basie Discography of CDs
The Collectables label is becoming well known for reissuing two albums on one CD, and they've done it again here with Blues by Basie and Dance Parade, originally on microgroove LP vinyl from the Columbia label. The "Blues" recording has every conceivable number the Count Basie band did in 1941 and 1942 with "blues" in the title, and there are four bonus tracks, two featuring vocals by Jimmy Rushing, and one from Helen Humes. Dance Parade hails circa 1945, 1946, and 1949, with one recording from 1939, including a lot of solid swing and some boogie-woogie, a style Basie himself is not closely associated with. Rushing comes back one more time. Though not viewed in the big picture as essential Basie recordings, together they tell a fine tale about what the band was up to, shortly before the war-induced U.S. recording bans. ~ Michael G. Nastos
Personnel: Helen Humes, Jimmy Rushing (vocals); Don Byas (tenor saxophone); Buck Clayton (trumpet).
Recording information: 05/19/1939-08/09/1946.

Many people think of smooth jazz as something that didn't start until the 1980s, but arguably, smooth jazz started around 1966-1968 with the overtly commercial, pop-drenched albums that guitarist Wes Montgomery recorded during the last few years of his life. Love it or hate it, Montgomery's more commercial output had a major impact on Peter White and many other guitarists who have contributed to smooth jazz (including George Benson, Lee Ritenour, Earl Klugh, Chuck Loeb, and Henry Johnson). Musically, a lot has changed since the '60s, but the more things change in music, the more they inevitably stay the same -- and 2009 found White (like Montgomery 41, 42, and 43 years earlier) still struggling with a desire to improvise and a desire for mass acceptance (the thing that jazz, for the most part, lost after World War II). Of course, one doesn't necessarily rule out the another; the late saxophonist Grover Washington, ...
