Description
The NEW ORLEANS RHYTHM KINGS are hot and on their mettle with "MILENBERG JOYS" and "MARGUERITE." How could they NOT be, with composer Jelly Roll Morton participating (on "Milenberg")?
The full complement: PAUL MARES (cornet), GEORGE BRUNIES (trombone), LEON RAPPOLO (clarinet), GLENN SCOVILLE (alto and tenor sax), DON MURRAY (clarinet and tenor sax), JELLY ROLL MORTON, (piano, on "Milenberg"), KYLE PIERCE (piano, on "Marguerite"), BOB GILLETTE (banjo), CHINK MARTIN (tuba), BEN POLLACK, (drums). ... (And guest BIX BEIDERBECKE, looking on, clutching his cornet, hoping he'll get to play on "Angry," which he didn't!)
This record is a stone classic, a piece o' the rock - foundational jazz!
This original 1923 Gennett 5217 is in rather worn VV- condition. Somebody really loved this record! Fortunately, there's still plenty of music left for you.
*****
These records come from my private collection, which I have been accumulating since 1967, and now am downsizing! My highest priority in these eBay auctions is to give you the best possible idea of a record’s true condition and aesthetic value. I always post at least four clear images, showing the record fore and aft, a close-up of the label, and the whole disc, warts and all. If my purple prose won’t cut it, the pictures will! Shipping is done with expert care. Your record will brave Media Mail in a stout corregated box, between four sheets of cardboard and a couple of “packers.” I hope you are amused by these descriptions, and by the quality of service being offered.
