Description of King Oliver 1926-1928
The Dixie Syncopators led by King Oliver in this period at Chicago's Plantation Café were a very different kind of band than Oliver's earlier Creole Jazz Band, which had featured Louis Armstrong and Johnny Dodds. On the first nine tracks, recorded in Chicago, the new orchestra was a larger group than its legendary predecessor, accomodating the New Orleans improvisers into more developed arrangements, with two cornets and a three-member reed section. There are also fine small-group New York recordings from 1928, with Clarence Williams on piano and vocals, that include a stately "Tin Roof Blues." Two vitality-filled versions of "Got Everything (Don't Want Anything but You)," one with vocals and one without, are performed by a larger New York group. Throughout the band's evolution and permutating personnel on this CD, there are outstanding solo moments by Barney Bigard on tenor, Luis Russell on piano, and Dodds and Omer Simeon on clarinet, but it's Oliver's cornet that stands out, whether muted and vocal or a noble and stoic open-horned presence. --Stuart BroomerJazz CDs
