[Dixielandjazz] Woody Herman's Caldonia

[Bill Haesler]

Dear mates,
While checking my Woody Herman "Caldonia" records for that 'naughty word' I
came across a Woody Herman Quartet LP I had forgotten all about.
With a fine version of "Pee Wee Blues".
Yes that haunting Pee Wee Russell tune.
Recorded in New York for Philips in Jan 1962, it features great, relaxed
Woody Herman with Nat Pierce, p; Chuck Andrus, sb; and Gus Johnson, d.
The currently-silent DJMLer, Jack Tracy, was the recording director for the
session.
Certainly worth looking for.
The original album was called 'Swing Low Sweet Clarinet'.
My reissue Philips' copy is called 'Birth Of Modern Swing'.
Kind regards,
Bill.
