ghost of miles Posted February 18, 2019 Report Share Posted February 18, 2019 Nice to see James Reese Europe getting this kind of attention in the Times: The Year Jazz Came Into Its Own Europe's resurfaced on my radar this past week or so as a result of working on a Night Lights show about Ellington's Black, Brown and Beige.

Patrick Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 Jason Moran has an extended project on James Reese Europe. Enjoyed the trio playing many of these tunes at Vanguard during Thanksgiving, before seeing the more theatrical show at the Kennedy Center.

jeffcrom Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 This might be a good time and place to re-post a link to my 78 blog entry with all of Europe's 1913-14 Victor recordings. The second link has FLAC files and pictures of all the labels. http://78rpmblog.blogspot.com/2018/02/james-reese-europes-victor-records.html http://78rpmblog.blogspot.com/2018/03/james-reese-europe-follow-up.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
