Jelly-Roll Morton & Duke Ellington 78 Shreveport Stomp & Doin' The Voom Voom 1929
Good condition record, no skips, no cracks, chips, or warping, and test played with good sound although there is some slight old record staticky background throughout that actually adds to the charm of these great numbers. Comes with an original Columbia record sleeve attached to the archival record sleeve. Will combine shipping.
Jelly Roll Morton was an American ragtime and jazz pianist, bandleader, and composer.
Edward Kennedy "Duke" Ellington was an American composer, pianist, and leader of a jazz orchestra, which he led from 1923 until his death over a career spanning more than six decades.
The Boswell Sisters were a highly influential, close harmony singing trio. Real sisters, they were three gifted musicians who emerged from the jazz movement in New Orleans in the early 1900s and became icons & pioneers in music & early radio & recording with influences that extend far beyond their own time. They took the idea of jazz and did it vocally, and they did it with such blending and precision that it has not been equaled since. Many giants of the swing era worked in their orchestras, and even stood and applauded them in honor of their musicianship at the end of a session--musicians such as Tommy & Jimmy Dorsey, Glenn Miller, Artie Shaw, Benny Goodman, Mannie Klein, Bunny Berigan, Joe Venuti & Eddie Lang to name a few. This store contains items related to their career & personal lives, including the book "The Boswell Legacy" by Titus & Boswell Minnerly, restored & original seen & never-before-seen images, original artifacts owned by the sisters themselves, and much more.
