Today's re-up is another LP from the Aladdin '. And his Tenor Sax' series. Like the Illinois Jacquet and Lynn Hope albums, this LP originally appeared as a 10' LP in 1954, but this time around the 1956 reissue as a 12' LP was spread over 2 volumes. Back in July 2010 I 'reconstructed' Volume 1 of 'Lester Young and his Tenor Sax' by ripping the tracks from a couple of old second hand / charity shop vinyl compilations, so you still get that authentic click and hiss, although not from a reissue of the original LP! Re-upped from October 2009.
This is a 1983 Pathe Marconi issue of an LP originally put out by Aladdin as a 10' album way back in 1954. Aladdin issued 3 other LPs in a short '. And his Tenor Sax' series in the 1950s - the other artists featured being Illinois Jacquet, Maxwell Davis and Lester Young. 1980s versions of these LPs appeared on Be Bop Wino years ago and more re-ups with new links may be in the pipeline.This has been one of my favourite tenor sax LPs for 30 years.
The sound quality is excellent and while there is no wild honking on display, there's lots of exotica-tinged sax stylings for the discerning R&B and even striptease jazz fan.The original post from October 2009 can be read here:Click the link to board the Be Bop Wino Way-Back Time Machine and get the lowdown on the Maharajah of the Saxophone.Your new working download link is here:Tracklist:Side 11.

In response to a request for a re-up, here's this 1985 Pathe Marconi collection of tracks originally released on Philo / Aladdin, Capitol and Imperial. Betty Hall Jones is very much the star here. Her combination of piano tinkling, sophisticated wit and dry vocal delivery is reminiscent of Julia Lee and Nellie Lutcher.The original post and write up from January 2010 is here:The new download link is here:Tracklist:Side 11. Rose Mitchell - Baby Please Don't Go2. Cleo Brown - Cleo's Boogie3. Addie Williams - Maybe Someday4.
Helen Humes - Stop Jivin' Around5. Helen Humes - Please Let Me Forget6. Tina Dixon - Hello Baby7. Tina Dixon - Don't You Know I Want To Love YouSide 21. Betty Hall Jones - You Got To Have What It Takes2. Betty Hall Jones - If I Ever Cry (You'll Never Know)3.
Betty Hall Jones - This Joint's Too Hip For Me4. Betty Hall Jones - Thrill Me5. Betty Hall Jones - Buddy Stay Off That Wine6. Betty Hall Jones - That's A Man For You7. Betty Hall Jones - I Never Miss The Sunshine (I'm So Used To The Rain). And this was the end of Joan Selects. Forty crackly examples of that vocal group record phenomenon - the talking bridge.
Think The Ink Spots and those records that always had a spoken interlude, seemingly always beginning with the words 'Honey Child. ' Or is my memory playing me tricks? Or perhaps that was Spike Jones and his City Slickers in one of their send ups.Anyway as you can hear from Joan's marvelous selection, the tradition continued in vocal group records throughout the 1950s. You can find Joan's write up in the original post from 2010 here:She knows a lot more about this than I do! And now the end is near. After Volume 20 Joan K came up with 2 extra volumes of 'Joan Selects.' Volume 20 of Joan Selects was originally called 'The Grand Finale' but it wasn't quite the end of the series.Forty vocal group tracks full of yearning.
Classics abound - such as 'Secret Love' by The Moonglows (an old favourite of mine), 'For Your Precious Love' by Jerry Butler and The Impressions, 'Goodnight Sweetheart Goodnight' by The Spaniels, plus the incomparable 'The Wind' by Nolan Strong and The Diablos. This is a site dedicated to rockin' 1940s and 1950s music, ripped from vinyl.
Some cuts are a bit on the rough side. If you're looking for audio perfection you're on the wrong site baby!If you like what you hear on this site please buy this kind of music.
There are many reasonably priced reissues available from web dealers or perhaps from your local record shop, if it still exists. These reissues will be in far better sound quality than the vinyl rips on this site and they will usually have more up to date liner notes and info, so go out and splash a little cash now and again.
Help keep those reissue labels going in these difficult times.No in-print CDs will be posted here. In fact no CDs will be posted here. I will occasionally list recommended purchases to help you hear more from artists featured on the blog.
