Details
[Edit]This valuable French CD contains the first 21 selections recorded by the Jimmie Lunceford Orchestra. Usually in reissue programs such as this one, Lunceford's two numbers leading the Chickasaw Syncopators in 1927 are left out, but fortunately those are included for they show his orchestra in its formative period. There are also two titles from 1930 (which as with the 1927 sides were recorded in Memphis, TN), two songs from 1933 and the first nine performances for Decca in 1934. The band's personnel was already set with such top soloists as altiost Willie Smith, tenor saxophonist Joe Thomas and the pioneering high-note trumpeter Tommy Stevenson; trumpeter-arranger Sy Oliver joined up by 1934. Highlights include "Memphis Rag," "White Heat," "Swingin' Uptown" and the wonderfully titled "Flaming Reeds and Screaming Brass."
