Not only does this superior double-LP set contain all of cornetist
Bix Beiderbecke
's recordings with
the Wolverines
in 1924 (much of which is classic), but it features him with
the Sioux City Six
and his
Rhythm Jugglers
(highlighted by the original version of
"Davenport Blues"
), the two titles cut by
after
Beiderbecke
departed (with
Jimmy McPartland
in his spot), and seven performances by
the Bucktown Five
in 1924 (the recording debut of cornetist
Muggsy Spanier
). Collectors of '20s jazz should be familiar with most of this music, especially the
Wolverines
sides.
