The Master Comes Of Age, December 28, 2001
This review is from: The Hot Fives & Hot Sevens, Vol. II (Audio CD)
Like its earlier Volume 1,this CD is classic prime jazz from start to finish;I don't know if you read my review of Volume 1 but what I said there still stands,and then some! Screw the low-fi sound,there is no jazz lover who can afford to be without THIS disc,-just listen to Satch's stop-time breaks on "Potato Head Blues" and his ripping glissando on "Wild Man Blues" and if this isnt enough check out "Willie The Weeper" for an interactive primer on New Orleans polyphony as practiced by a master.Again,if youre going to mince about sound quality you might be better off making your own records! THIS is definitely a desert-island must-have!!!
