Art Tatum: Piano Grand Master

by Mike Perciaccante
Featuring 99 tracks in total, the Piano Grand Master box set is the finest Art Tatum collection ever assembled. UK-based Proper Records has delivered an appropriately titled four-disc set which presents itself as a career retrospective, but actually spans only Tatum's prime years (1932-1951). The only essential recordings missing from this set are the mid-'50s material ...
Slim Gaillard: Laughing in Rhythm

by AAJ Staff
Does it really matter if Slim Gaillard was born in Detroit, Michigan or Santa Clara, Cuba? Is it important to know with certainty whether he was accidentally abandoned for half a year in Crete by his seafaring father? I say no. Slim Gaillard the entertaniner spun tales both musical and verbal for effect, for ...

Subtle it is not, and ...

Bud Powell: Tempus Fugue-It

by Craig Jolley
The Four-CD set Tempus Fugue-It gives an in-depth picture of Bud Powell's early career equally as side man and leader. Since he was the pianist of choice for many emerging boppers the set also serves as something of a history of bebop. Beginning with Cootie Williams' 1944 jump band Powell is already recognizable in his brief ...
