danny la rouge
More like *fanny* la rouge!
listening to a 1950s folkways jazz anthology tonight (which has liner notes you'd kill for danny), and this tune cropped up. lovely. louis is also all over the fletcher henderson tracks, which i've never heard before...
That album sounds as if it'd be fantastic! I have a 3-CD Fletcher Henderson boxed set called Study in Frustration. It's well worth having, if you're a CD collector. Obviously, it's full of Louis, too. (As well as Red Allen, Roy Eldridge, Benny Carter, Chu Berry, and Coleman Hawkins, amongst others! Even Sun Ra had a Henderson apprenticeship, although he doesn't appear on the set I mentioned).
There's Folkways set out recently on CD called the Smithsonian Jazz Collection (I think), which Alyn Shipton helped to put together (British jazz bassist, writer and broadcaster), which I'd love to have. The liner notes are apparently superb. However, it's about £100, and given that I'll already have the vast majority of the tracks, I don't think I can justify it in my current financial circumstances.
