Digitally re-mastered five CD set containing nine original LP releases. Between January of 1958 and April of 1959, famed English Jazz writer Stanley Dance produced nine glorious LPs of traditional Jazz for the Felsted label. Among the performers were many superb jazzmen who had been forgotten for decades or had rarely recorded as leaders. This box set puts together, for the first time ever, all of the Felsted Swing albums in their complete form, half of which had never previously appeared on CD, while many others have been long unavailable and truly hard to find. The leaders on the nine albums are clarinetist Buster Bailey, trombonist Dicky Wells, tenor saxophonists Coleman Hawkins, Buddy Tate and Budd Johnson, pianists Earl Hines and Billy Strayhorn, and drummer Cozy Cole. Solar. 2011.
“Initially a jazz critic, Stanley Dance has done a great deal through the years to help swing and mainstream jazz musicians. In fact ‘mainstream’ was his term which he came up with in the 1950s to describe music played by musicians who were stylistically between dixieland and bebop. Dance has occasionally produced recording sessions through the years (most notably for Felsted in the 1950s) and has in his own way influenced jazz history.”
