About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Two unrelated small-group sessions from the swing era that were originally recorded for the H.R.S. (Hot Record Society) label are reissued in full on this enjoyable CD. Trombonist Jack Teagarden takes a vacation from his big band to play with an all-star octet that also includes cornetist Rex Stewart, clarinetist Barney Bigard, and tenor saxophonist Ben Webster. Teagarden sings "St. James Infirmary" and is quite fluent on "Shine." The other set has the unique clarinetist Pee Wee Russell and a different octet (which includes trumpeter Max Kaminsky, trombonist Dicky Wells, tenor saxophonist Al Gold, and pianist James P. Johnson) romping on a blues and three Dixieland standards; in addition Russell, Johnson, and drummer Zutty Singleton stretch out on "I Found a New Baby" and "Everybody Loves My Baby." Easily recommended to classic jazz fans. Scott Yanow, All Music Guide

May 05, 2001: This CD, a reissue of a Riverside LP, is on the short side, but offers excellent, offbeat jazz from Jack Teagarden and Pee Wee Russell. Teagarden appears with a his ''Big Eight,'' an unusual group drawing heavily on Duke Ellington's band, while Russell appears with stride piano legend J.P. Johnson and New Orleans drummer Zutty Singleton.
