Hello Marek,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">While I appreciate your postings here, I find your
musical limitations disqualify you from offering any cogent
assessment of jazz artists who reach beyond rather basic
entertainment.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Harry James was a master trumpeter and capable of a
wide range of artistic expression.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">His massive discography speaks volumes to his
scope.Were he alive today, he might have put out a big band
hip-hop recording ~~~<br class="">

<div class="">I have never heard James live, but I've
heard his later recordings. So, true, it was not
always swing era jazz, but modern? I'd say sweet,
even syrupy, but modern?</div>
<div class="">Many years ago a Canadian journalist was
rather upset when we referred to Harry James as a
jazz musician. "What? He and his terrible dance
band trumpet?" Of course we right away started
playing James' old records as a blindfold test. He
inferred who it was from the context, but said he
had never heard James playing like that. I ave some
small (and big) band later recordings, with Willie
Smith and Corky Corcoran, and they are anything but
modern!</div>
