1937-39

Though Earl Hines's greatest fame resides in his solo piano and small-group recordings, both from the 1920s and the 1970s, he also led one of the most durable big bands in jazz history, extending from 1928 to 1948 and happily resident for long periods at Chicago's Grand Terrace Ballroom. The material here comes from a particularly good period in the band's history, when it was a hard-swinging outfit with lively arrangements and excellent soloists in trombonist Trummy Young and clarinetist Omer Simeon. Budd Johnson was a key factor in the band, both as saxophone soloist and as arranger. His "XYZ" develops tremendous momentum, while his arrangement of Hines's "Piano Man" is a fine setting for the leader's flamboyant piano. Also included in this comprehensive view of the period are two wonderful piano solos, four-minute takes of "The Father's Getaway" and "Reminiscing at Blue Note" that show Hines at his inventive and kinetic best. --Stuart Broomer

All about biology he knows not a thing; but of piano--ology,.......2003-09-03

He really is king...and these recordings are some of the best examples of what rocked the Grand Terrace Ballroom in Chicago during the mid and late 1930s. Much of it released on the RCA Victor Vintage Series under the title of (what else?) "The Grand Terrace Band", these are unquestionably some of his classic GTB-era recordings. What a band, too! It is safe to say that other than Ellington, Basie, and perhaps some lesser knowns like Harlon Leonard, etc. - Hines' band was the most swinging in the country, with members like Walter Fuller on trumpet, and Budd Johnson on sax. If you love swing, or good big bands, this is Earl Hines at his best. 'Fatha' would be happy - here I sit less than a mile from where he grew up, more than 60 years later, listening to and waxing poetic about his great band. "'Fatha Hines, 'Fatha Hines!" This is only one of 'Fatha''s incarnations of talent, however. His solo playing evokes a whole different mood, as does his playing with Louis Armstrong. Look for it all.
