Henderson’s dance band combined rhythm with levity. Armstrong, Hawkins, Redman are special signatures. Gershwin on piano evokes hoofers choreographed on a Broadway stage. Eddie Lang makes the guitar an essential sound of jazz. Clarence Williams made some of the very best jazz records, here with a Bechet tune. Lovie Austin demonstrates rhythm piano. Piron gives another definition of New Orleans jazz.. The USix debut under that name, with Rollini details. Ellington is not yet a prime time attraction as were Henderson and Moten. Disparities in sound are heard across a spectrum from microphone to non-microphone.
