Joe Venuti
Violin Jazz, 1927-1934
Yazoo 1062; Ordering Information
" Not just historic, but great musical pleasure."

| Joe
Venuti is revered in retrospect as the first and perhaps greatest
jazz violinist, history's equivalent of his close associate Eddie
Lang. Even as the musical era he embodied grows increasingly remote,
his performances still command attention, not only as historic milestones
but as aesthetic ones. These quartet selections with Lang on guitar,
Frank Signorelli on piano and Adrian Rollini on bass sax set standards
that are unsurpassed for sheer musicianship. Top-notch examples
include Wild dog, Four String Joe, Satan's Holiday, Sweet Lorraine,
Kickin' The Cat. |
