7.2.2012: New Orleans Bump at the Tuesday Hop ( http://www.facebook.com/tuesdayhop)
this is a short journey to swingin New Orleans Jazz from then and now........VOUTY.

Eleven tracks including music by Bud Freeman, Buster Bailey and Coleman Hawkins.

Nine tracks including music by Jimmie Noone & His Orchestra, Johnny Dodds & His Chicago Boys and Joseph Robichaux And His New Orleans Rhythm Boys.

Spanning nearly 70 years, this collection features brilliant instrumentals and classic vocals. Its twenty-five tracks include recordings by Betty Carter, Clifford Brown and Bunny Berigan.

New Orleans origin sampler including music by Bo Dollis & Monk Boudreau wth The ReBirth Brass Band, Boswell Sisters and Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong.

Eight tracks of live big band swing from 30's and 40's including music by Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, Duke Ellington and others.

Live recordings are not the only bad quality sound. They are also unique improvisations, feeling of dancefloor life, a chance for modern dancers to imagine themselves dancing in Savoy Ballroom or in any other ballroom of swing era.

Hot. Fast. Mostly modern. Fun.

Eight repeats of the same tune? Yes - that's a little crazy, but Joshua (he who fit that old battle. Allegedly) has become one of my all-time favourite swing tunes. Or, to be more accurate, it's become many of my all-time favourite swing tunes. There's so many great arrangements and versions that I'm spoiled for choice these days when choosing one in a set. So here's a bunch that I like to DJ from time to time.

When the revelation comes

When the rich go out and work

When the air is pure and clear

When we all have food to eat

When our leaders learn to cry

Oh Lord I want to be in that number
When the Saints go marching in

Drags, blues and other fooling around tracks including music by Charles Brown, Ella Fitzgerald, and Fats Waller & His Rhythm.

Jass, yo!

Fourteen tracks starting with King Oliver, Kid Ory & and Leadbelly.
