This review is from: Johnny Dodds 1927 (Audio CD)

Classics 1927 CD contains all the sides cut with Armstrong playing under Johnny's leadership. Recorded at the same time as Louis' Hot Fives etc., these recordings are just as important. The cd has been unavailable lately. There's also an alternate take of Wildman Blues available from Neatwork. Seems to be the only known surviving alternate from the these sessions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bad review above, November 20, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Johnny Dodds 1927 (Audio CD)

Dodds came from a musical family. His mother played in the piano in the local church.

He was a skilled improviser and like a lot of his contemporaries was a capable sight reader. He was contemptous of poor musicianship and tried to discourage his younger brother from joining Joe Oliver because of his inability to read. His brother recalled the boss' instructions when asked "how do i read it?" oliver is alleged to have said 'left to right top to bottom'

Please research before putting stuff on the sales site.

Thank you
