What are you listening to?

[davidraphael]

I'm listening to 1930s Teddy Wilson (later in Benny Goodman's trio and 4tet) at the moment after discovering a...ahem...'source' for lossless versions of the now out-of-print Chronological Classics jazz series that reissued rare 78rpm jazz sides from the very early 20th century to the mid-50s.

There are nearly 1000 cds in the series and I only have a paltry 200 or so. There are too many gems to mention!


Here's the list:

Will Osborne

...was the Canadian Rudy Vallée, except he had a much more laidback personality and a much better band. He and it were particularly good in 1934-'35, so enjoy a few of the standouts of those years.
