5.0 out of 5 stars
Outstanding, historical jazz collection!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Central Avenue Sounds: Jazz In Los Angeles (1921-1956) (Audio CD)
Central Avenue Sounds is more than a compendium of Los Angeles-based jazz from the 1920s-1960s. It's an historical documentation of an age and cultural environment that is sadly long gone and nearly forgotten. Although it stands on its own as an outstanding collection, buy this set with the book of the same title--"Central Avenue Sounds" edited by Clora Bryant (available here at Amazon)--for a multimedia journey back to a unique time and place. Highest recommendations!

Life in the Music,

This review is from: Central Avenue Sounds: Jazz In Los Angeles (1921-1956) (Audio CD)
I just heard this set and loved it. Before the days of electronic modulation and ripping these artists put emotional soul into their art. Much of this set can qualify as a worthy soundtrack for life. To get the most played it on a system that can present the full dynamic range and breath of the artists efforts. Cheers.
