  Bennie Moten's Kansas City Jazz vol. 1
Vault Originals, LVA 3025

Bennie Moten (November 13, 1894 – April 2, 1935) was a noted American jazz pianist and band leader born in Kansas City, Missouri.

He led the Kansas City Orchestra, the most important of the regional, blues-based orchestras active in the Midwest in the 1920s, and helped to develop the riffing

style that would come to define many of the 1930s Big Bands.

His first recordings were made (for OKeh Records) in 1923, and were rather typical interpretations of the New Orleanes style of King Oliver and others.

They also showed the influence of the Ragtime that was still popular in the area. These OKeh sides (recorded 1923-1925) are some of the more valuable acoustic jazz 78's

of the era and continue to be treasured records in many serious jazz collections.


Condition: Cover is VG though the bottom seam is slightly split, the sound of the record is nice. Record is VG+
