I'm expecting a cold, cold day. 10 degrees now, high of 16 expected, and snow starting at midnight, figures as we have an early morning appointment with Lucinda's surgeon early tomorrow morning. Life in winter in NE Ohio.

I'm starting the day off with the stiff and punctuated hot dance music of Roger Wolfe Kahn on a Jazz Oracle cd.

Kahn was an interesting character. A talented multi-instrumentalist he not only fronted bands but managed other bands and built numerous swanky nightclubs. On top of these accomplishments he was also a daring aerialist. The music here featured some top talent including Joe Venuit, Jimmy Dorsey, Eddie Lang and Aartie Shaw. He had a hit with is composition "Crazy Rhythm" and also made a film starring his band performing on a yacht, and possibly piloted the plane featuring aerial stunts in the movie.

On to the amazing Ms Betty Carter. Betty was so brave and bold and determined. She was an excellent band leader and nurturer of talent, and her distinctive, innovative vocal style has really won me over these past decades.

The Roulette recordings were all live with an elastic and swinging piano trie behind her in great sound.

Betty Carter “Round Midnight–The Roulette Years, Volume 2” Roulette, European cd. Released as two separate volumes, and together in a slipcase. I wouldn’t part wtih either volume; I also have three earlier US cds of this material.
