Personnel:
Jelly Roll Morton (p) solos, talking and illustrating songs with interviews with Alan Lomax.
In 1938, noted musicologist and Morton biographer Alan Lomax conducted a series of interviews with Morton at the Library of Congress. Richard Cook and Brian Morton describe these recordings as Jelly Roll Morton's "virtual history of the birth pangs of jazz as it happened in the New Orleans of the turn of the century. His memory was unimpaired, although he chose to tell things as he preferred to remember them, perhaps; and his hands were still in complete command of the keyboard." Ron Wynn and Bruce Boyd Raeburn note that "though the albums came out posthumously, the interviews generated tremendous new interest in Morton's life and music."
Riverside Records issued these recordings as LP records in 1955. This set has the 1957 label variety.
Terrific and Scarce Historical Piano Jazz Album Set in EXCELLENT Condition.
