The Alternative Takes, Vol. 1: 1923-1925 Fletcher Henderson |
Released June 26, 2001
The Alternative Takes series is of immense value to consumers of the "French Classics" CD series. These are alternate takes in chronological order of historic jazz (and some blues) with a strong representation of the swing era. The Alternative Takes, Vol. 1: 1923-1925 contains 25 Fletcher Henderson tracks on a single disc including "How Come You Do Me Like You Do?," "Prince of Walls," "I'll See You in My Dreams," "Why Couldn't It Be Poor Little Me," "Alabamy Bound," and "Swanee Butterfly." While the disc is definitely directed toward collectors, anyone with an interest in this period of jazz will also enjoy it. ~ Al Campbell, All Music Guide
