KANSAS CITY
- Ref. U 2194
- COLUMBIA/LEGACY, 1996. Enregistrement 1925-1941.
"The great jazz which emerged from Kansas City, the fertile crescent of american music, began as a synthesis of ragtime, marching bands, and vaudeville. The music was hot and hybrid and rolled all the booze, babes, gambling, crime and corruption politics into its swinging fabric." For details about the personnel see Okeh, Brunswick, Vocalion, Victor, Decca, Columbia, Bluebird Records discography.
