The two-CD set called Wilbur Harden & John Coltrane has all of the performances that they recorded together for the Savoy label, three former LPs in all. The other musicians include Tommy Flanagan or Tommy Williams on piano, Doug Watkins or Al Jackson on bass, Louis Hayes or Art Taylor on drums and, for half of the music, trombonist Curtis Fuller. With the exception of the standard “Once in a While” and two songs by Fuller, all of the pieces was written by Harden.
Billie Holiday is one of the most iconic figures in American musical history. Her voice and style were absolutely groundbreaking at the time, and there is no shortage of dramatic imagery and stories when it comes to Lady Day. She is considered to be one of the greatest jazz singers, but her relaxed phrasing and emotional sound blurs the lines between jazz and blues. Now some of her best recordings are available in a brand new import for an amazing Member price.

This remarkable 10-CD set, imported from Europe, has many of the highlights of Armstrong's career. Beginning in late 1925, the reissue includes some of the great classics of the Louis Armstrong Hot Five and Seven dates (1925-28), many of his big band performances of 1929-33 during which he helped to introduce and/or popularize dozens of standards, a bunch of his Swing Era recordings, his small group dates of 1946-47 including selections co-starring Jack Teagarden and a few orchestral performances from the early 1950s.
From Big Joe Turner to George Benson, these are the musicians we call "cats" for their impressive musical acrobatics, mixing blues, soul, funk and even gospel with jazz.
