tunes are KEYSTONE BLUES and
NEW ORLEANS HOP SCOP.
The mode of playing, while fol-
lowing the broad outlines of early
New Orleans which produced
D1xieland Chicago and all other
styles, differs greatly from the
records made around Is months
ago at Victor under supervision OF
Hughes Panassie but follows the
general pattern of the more recent
Victor platters made by Jelly Roll
Morton and released in connection
With the book, "Jazzman.
BOYS SETTLE DOWN
For this album, Decca gathered
the cream OF ranking New Or
leans musicians with the exception
OF Jelly Roll, Barney Bigard and a
lew others and turned them loose
with instructions to play just as
they felt. Some of these artists
hadn't played together in years
but that nattered not at all E.
Each seemed to inspire the other,
and the boys all settled down to
play as best they knew. Of course
some have gotten away from the
strict New Orleans tradition, not
ably Edmound Hall, and yet Hall
is one of the most resourceful and
brilliant clarinetists in the world
today, showing a purity of tone
and economy of melodic line that
such pied pipers as Shaw and
Goodman might well emulate.
This is the righteous stuff, spirit
ed, easy flowing and yet intense. If
you have any liking at all for real
jazz played by its masters, get this
album. Or, better still, get two for
you're likely to wear out one set in
the first few weeks.

Bessie SMITH and there, Ruby
Smith became an Instantaneous
hit in singing the Blues the way
her Aunt used to. She had worked
in the chorus of her Aunt's show
