[1945-1955] 2-CD Set. Bill Russell embraced with particular warmth the avant garde of early 20th Century New Orleans music, the players whose
names invoked the genesis of jazz, and he would have approved of any of the recordings found in the second set of Storyville’s tribute to the New
Orleans Revival. [Item Code: 66981 2-CD: $15.00]

This CD includes several musicians who were on the scene during both wars. They were entwined in their musical
relationships and understood why their performances that kick off this CD have such cohesiveness. These players developed mutual rapport in
New Orleans when Louis Armstrong was still a teenager with a dream and Buddy Bolden was blowing his bones hard across town. Their musical
interaction continued in California and through the intervening post-war periods, thus reflecting an ongoing association rather than a reunion. It is
an incestuous but positive weave. [Item Code: 67327 2-CD: $15.00]

midst of the raging jazz age. These would come to be known as torch songs and probably began with My Man; an
English version of the French hit Mon Homme introduced by the chanteuse Mistinguet. Ziegfeld brought Mistinguet to New York to perform this
moving number in his 1921 edition of the Follies, but then turned the song over to Fanny Brice because Mistinguet’s voice displeased him. Brice’s
poignant, heart-wrenching performance of My Man became an enormous success. These songs shared common theme of unfulfilled love for a man
sung in a plaintive style - laments in which the singer was portrayed as a victim of a futile, if not outright abusive romance. Torch songs flourished
following the introduction of electrical recordings; a new process in 1925 that improved sound and provided the intimate style essential to these
passionate songs. This first volume offers torch songs from their inception in the 1920’s. [Item Code: 2518 CD: $16.00]

accommodations that attracted dignitaries, socialites and celebrities. It was also the home of the Coconut Grove - a
world famous nightclub that catered to this set. From 1928 to 1931 Gus Arnheim’s orchestra was in residence as
the Grove’s popular house band. He was called ‘the star of entertainers and the entertainer of stars’. Several musicians
and vocalists who performed with Arnheim at this time soon became stars themselves, including Bing Crosby,
Fred MacMurray, Russ Columbo, Jack Smith and Donald Novis. Selections in this collection are transferred from
rare radio transcriptions made in 1931. These numbers are performed in a more relaxed and spontaneous style of
a nightclub rather than in the controlled setting of a recording studio. The two vocals by Bing Crosby for Out Of
Nowhere and What Is It? were actually recorded live from the Grove, making them especially atmospheric. [Item
