Various Artists - Chicago And All That Jazz!

This album is a real treat.  I have tagged it as Various Artists, but it's really the McKenzie-Condon Chicagoans with a couple member changes.  I have included the back cover which details the event, so I won't bother with too much info here.

The album itself is mint.  I have seen digital releases of this side, often under Condon or Teagarden's name.  For some reason they all exclude both Original Boogie and Original Rag.  You get those and a whole bunch of other great tracks on this one.  The material is both fresh and unpretentious.

Ripped at 24/44.1 wav and dithered to 16/44.1 FLAC...  Enjoy!!


Verve V8441
Recorded in NYC Oct 30/31, 1961

  2. Thanks so much for your sharing of the "older" jazz that, more often than not, gets ignored in the blogosphere. Great music is great music no matter when it was recorded. Bravo!

  3. Haven't listened to the album yet, but could be a recording of the famous Chicago TV show?

    Many parts available on YouTube if you search for Chicago & all that Jazz.

    Thanks
