Black & Blue

[David Ayers]

I saw that Crazy Jazz listed a load of Black & Blue titles. 

http://www.crazyjazz.co.uk/labels/b/blackandblue.htm

I'm guessing this is some old stock or something, but I wonder if anybody here kniws more about these "reissues" or has comments on the titles.

David - Here are a few that I've really enjoyed that I didn't see mentioned on the other thread:

- Harry "Sweets" Edison - Just Friends

- Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis - Light & Lovely

- Budd Johnson (with Earl Hines) - Mr. Bechet 

- Ellis Larkins - A Smooth One 

- Roland Hanna - Impressions

Along with these, do try to hear the two Hank Jones records and the Joe Newman record that soulpope mentions on the other thread.  All of these are unmissable, imho!
