Description
A RARE ONE, here is some rip-snorting, delightfully kooky, Chicago Jazz from 1929 by E. C. COBB AND HIS CORN EATERS: "TRANSATLANTIC STOMP" and "BARRELL [sic] HOUSE STOMP. "
This little band, sounding greater than the sum of its parts, includes hot musicians the Cobb brothers, JIMMY (cornet) and JUNIE (E.C.) (clarinet), FRANK MELROSE (piano) and JIMMY BERTRAND (xylophone and drums).
This is a swell group, with outstanding contributions from everyone, but especially Jimmy Bertrand. He plays unmistakable hot jazz on the xylophone, pushing that venerable novelty instrument till it goes toe-to-toe with the sax, cornet and piano.
Frank Melrose, who was white, who studied piano with Jelly Roll Morton, made records with both Black and White jazz musicians a good ten years before that became an accepted practice.
This original 1929 "Hot Dance" "Scroll" Victor V-38023 is in nice E- condition.
*****
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.
