Full title is: First of the Singer Songwriters: Key Cuts 1924-1946
Most songwriters are just that: songwriters. But Hoagy had a special flair as a singer and pianist and made many fine recordings from the '20s to the '50s. Here are his best performances ( Star Dust; Riverboat Shuffle; Rockin' Chair; Lazy Bones; Georgia on My Mind; Hong Kong Blues ) plus My Sweet Louis Armstrong; March of the Hoodlums Duke Ellington; Daybreak Paul Whiteman; Old Man Harlem Dorsey Brothers Orchestra; Washboard Blues Connee Boswell & Casa Loma Orchestra; New Orleans Bennie Moten, plus Mildred Bailey, Fletcher Henderson and more! |
