East Coast Blues

Name any jazz trumpeter of the twentieth century and amongst the handful that readily spring to mind will be Harry James. Critics have claimed that James had a florid style of playing and there is an element of truth in that he was raised in a circus family and learned the razz-a-mataz of show business at an early age. On this CD we feature a number of instrumental tracks and a mixture of vocals from some of the finest singers of the big band era... enjoy.
