4.0 out of 5 stars
play it again, Luis !, June 13, 2001
This review is from: Luis Russell 1930 1934 (Audio CD)
Again the same bunch of soloists: Red Allen,Nicholas,Teddy Hill, Higginbotham,Pops Foster,Barbarin,Holmes,and some new ones: Greely Walton,Dickie Wells,Vic Dickenson,Rex Stewart,Jimmy Archey. Again, great music: "song of the Swanee","Saratoga shout","Saratoga drag","Panama"(listen to Paul Barbarin's infernal drumming, and to Pops Foster's extraordinary bass playing).More of the great soloists were gone in 1934,when the last six tracks were recorded, but the 18 other tracks are in the same vein than the precedent album, that covers the years 1926-1929. If you like the first one, you'll have a ball listening to this one.
