THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS RECORDINGS
Jelly Roll MORTON
- Ref. UM8542
- AFFINITY, 1991. Enregistrement 1938.
Cf.LPs UM8532 à UM8538. Recorded by Alan Lomax May to July 1938. "This set is a moving and invaluable document by one of the great figures in jazz. It is affecting to hear his sustaining sense of pride in his New Orleans Creole heritage, and this neglected artist must have realised that this was his last chance to state his case. He is dead three years later."
