As he hit his stride,
By Andre M. "brnn64" (Mt. Pleasant, SC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Louis Jordan 1943 1945 (Audio CD)
A good one for Jordanites. Here, the super-lunatic madman supreme, master and jester of jive storytelling, and sultan of saxophonists prefected his style of comical jazz story-songs with swell saxophone serenades.Some of these are the "V-Discs" that our man recorded for the soldiers during WW2, and are a tad more raunchy (though never openly profane or sexually explicit) than his standard fare. In "Deacon Jones" (loosely based on his hero Bert Williams' "Elder Eatmore Sermons,") the tale is told of a philandering preacher. "How High Am I" has LJ spinning comic tales of the results of drunkeness. "You Can't Get that No More" is timely comtemporary satire of rationing during WW2 and one of his most popular records "Caldonia Boogie" inspired both James Brown and Little Richard, and its not hard to see how! Hear LJ in his glory years- get this set and laugh yourself merry.
