Customer Reviews of High Society [Tradition]
A great collection for fans of 1920's jazz This album is a great collection of rare tracks featuring Louis Armstrong, King Oliver, and Bessie Smith.
Although Bessie Smith only appears on track 5, the album is worth the money just to get the songs with both Armstrong and King Oliver.
Of the 11 tracks:
- 6 of them feature both Armstrong and King Oliver
- 2 feature Armstrong and his Hot Five
- 1 features Armstrong and his Hot Seven
- 1 features King Oliver and his Dixieland Syncopators (no Armstrong)
- 1 features Bessie Smith without either Oliver or Armstrong
All the tracks were recorded between 1923-1927
Highly Recommended!
mixed bag
Despite the title, only a few bands have Armstrong playing with Oliver, and Bessie Smith appears with piano and bass only, not with either Armstrong or Oliver. Most tunes are either Oliver after Armstrong left, or Louis with the Hot Five. Some of the recordings, like the Hot Five ones, are widely known, while other bands are more obscure. Discography and personnel information are complete. This is a CD for the true lover of '20s jazz, and the rare takes are great for that -- but anyone wanting those will doubtless already have the Hot Five numbers, so they're duplicative. On balance, this is a valuable disk for a real '20s jazz fan.
