A very nice SACD.......2004-06-09
The soloists on the album include John Pizzareli, and the Manhattan Transfer. They are great musicians that bring a bit of variety to this album.
There is only one bad thing that I could say about this album is pretty minor. The hybrid SACD is supposed to be able to play on all CD players. I have had problems playing this on regular CD players.

webb is no midget when it comes to music.......2006-02-08
I love this music.......2005-02-11
The right music but variable sound.......2003-07-24
I might specially recommend Chick Webb to those whose acquaintance with big band jazz is so far limited to Duke Ellington, as there was a good working relationship between the two bandleaders. Duke assisted Webb in his early career, and many of Webb's soloists (Jordan, tenor sax player Elmer Williams, and alto player Russell Procope among them) would later play for Duke. Moreover, Webb's arrangers such as Edgar Sampson vied with Duke for coloratura orchestration.
This CD covers Webb's peak period in the early and mid thirties (e.g. "Stomping at the Savoy" and "Blue Minor", both Edgar Sampson arrangements) as well as some of the Ella Fitzgerald hits later in the decade, such as "A tisket a tasket". It includes, speaking of Ellington, Duke's own arrangement of his "Azure", which he himself never recorded, to my knowledge.
My only reservation would be some odd distortion which occurs in some, not all, of the tracks. This is a rather "watery" sound (heard also on the Decca re-issues of the same pieces) which may be easily explicable to those better versed in recording and transfer technology than I, but I have to say that I found it distracting, and I am not a hi-fi fanatic. Otherwise what the musicians were doing is audible enough.

Album Description
In clubs and juke joints, a new music took shape toward the end of the Second World War. Swining, sophiticated, and relentlessly high energy, it became known as "Rhythm & Blues." Savoy Records was among the first labels to record R&B, at a time when it was ignored and misunderstood by the music industry, and this ground breaking collection captures the birth of modern R&B.
