The real Bix,
By bukhtan (Chicago, Illinois, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 1924-30: Great Orig Performances (Audio CD)
I used to wonder why Bix Beiderbecke was so highly rated. Robert Parker's remastering of these sides makes Beiderbecke's beautiful melodic thinking evident and even resurrects his celebrated bell-like tone. This is the most vivid Bix I've heard.Along with the small band recordings (cornet, trombone, clarinet, bass clarinet, piano & drums) built around Bix, this selection includes performances by the Paul Whiteman Orchestra (with some crooners including Bing Crosby)and Frankie Trumbauer's band (the c-melody sax player Lester Young based his style on). These may be considered "novelty numbers" by many but they tell us a lot about the musical background against which the great jazz music of the era developed.

What an incredible restoration!,
By A Customer
This review is from: 1924-30: Great Orig Performances (Audio CD)
Why, oh why, aren't more early recordings restored with this much skill and love?If you're trying to chose a Bix recording, well, here you go. This one will spoil you for sure. I also bought the CD "Singin' the Blues" and wish I hadn't wasted the money on it. Bix is represented musically much better here and the restoration is superb. I prefer the purely instrumental tracks to those with vocals. On this CD there are a four or five vocal tracks, but they're brief (and a couple of them are oddly sung--in my opinion).

Bix Best,

This review is from: 1924-30: Great Orig Performances (Audio CD)
Wow! If you are to going own just one Bix Beiderbecke CD, this IS the one. On listening to it, I felt transported back in time to the studio where Bix and bands made the recordings. The sound quality is unmatched in any recording that I have heard made in the last 40 years. (NOTE: these are Bix classics from 70+ years ago!) This CD is a true combination of music art from Bix Beiderbecke plus amazing stereo & acoustical magic from Robert Parker! What more can I say?
