Bud Freeman • Chicago-Austin High School Jazz In Hi-Fi.txt

 



Review by Scott Yanow
Three overlapping groups are heard from here, and they revisit the repertoire of the McKenzie & Condon's Chicagoans of 1927 (playing new versions of the four songs originally recorded) and Bud Freeman's 1939-1940 Summa Cum Laude Orchestra. The two septets and the octet feature such immortal Condonites as tenor saxophonist Bud Freeman; Jimmy McPartland and Billy Butterfield on trumpets; trombonists Tyree Glenn and Jack Teagarden (who also takes some vocals); clarinetists Pee Wee Russell and Peanuts Hucko; pianists Gene Schroeder and Dick Cary; rhythm guitarist Al Casamenti (but surprisingly no Eddie Condon); bassists Milt Hinton, Al Hall, and Leonard Gaskin; and drummer George Wettling. The veterans were all still in prime form at the time, and they sound quite inspired. Highlights include "Nobody's Sweetheart," "China Boy," "Chicago," "There'll Be Some Changes Made," and "Jack Hits the Road."

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Aquí se escuchan tres grupos superpuestos que revisan el repertorio de los Habitantes de Chicago de McKenzie & Condon de 1927 (tocando nuevas versiones de las cuatro canciones grabadas originalmente) y la Orquesta Summa Cum Laude de Bud Freeman de 1939-1940. Los dos septetos y el octeto presentan condonitas inmortales como el saxofonista tenor Bud Freeman; Jimmy McPartland y Billy Butterfield a las trompetas; los trombonistas Tyree Glenn y Jack Teagarden (quienes también toman algunas voces); los clarinetistas Pee Wee Russell y Peanuts Hucko; los pianistas Gene Schroeder y Dick Cary; el guitarrista rítmico Al Casamenti( pero sorprendentemente no Eddie Condon); los bajistas Milt Hinton, Al Hall y Leonard Gaskin; y el baterista George Wettling. Los veteranos todavía estaban en plena forma en ese momento, y suenan bastante inspirados. Los aspectos más destacados incluyen "Nobody's Sweetheart", "China Boy", "Chicago"," Se realizarán algunos Cambios " y " Jack Sale a la carretera."
