While the jazz history books primarily classify the 1940s and
'50s as the era in which bebop developed into jazz mainstream, another
musical movement was just as powerful and even more popular: the
revival of New Orleans Jazz. Starting in 1949 with the
Firehouse Five Plus Two and continuing until its final release in
1969, Lester Koenig's Good Time Jazz label was one of the most
important of all the traditional jazz record companies,
documenting a wide variety of legendary classic jazz musicians in
their prime.Recently revived by Fantasy, Good Time Jazz has long
been a legendary name among trad jazz fans, making the release of
The Good Time Jazz Story a major event, both musically and
historically.This definitive four-disc retrospective, with
fully annotated and illustrated booklet, features many of
the highpoints of the Good Time Jazz years.The 92
consistently exciting selections, divided into four
overlapping catagories (Ragtime/Blues/Banjos, New Orleans,
San Francisco, and Los Angeles), range from Jelly Roll Morton,
Lucky Roberts, Willie "The Lion" Smith, and Wally Rose (whose
recording of "Black and White Rag" helped launch the first
revival of ragtime) to Bunk Johnson, George Lewis, Kid Ory, Paul
Barbarin, Lu Watters' Yerba Buena Jazz Band, Turk Murphy, Bob
Scobey, the Firehouse Five Plus Two, today's Silver Leaf Jazz Band, and
many others. The Good Time Jazz Story will certainly delight both
the verteran collectors and those listeners just beginning to
explore this joyful music.(4 CDs Set)
