Although he was a fine classically trained pianist who emigrated to the United States in 1911, Jean Goldkette's importance to jazz is as a bandleader in the 1920s. Goldkette actually had over 20 bands under his name by the mid-1920s, but it was his main unit (which recorded for Victor during 1924-29) that is the only one remembered today. This 24 track collection features Don Murray, Joe Venuti, Steve Brown, Hoagy Carmichael, Frank Trumbauer and others.

  1. Thank you for this very fine example of the golden days of dance bands. Takes me right back to the time of 12inch 78rpm shellac biscuits. Ah, those were the days!!!
