Jabbo Smith's Rhythm Aces

At The Request Of Mayo Williams Of The Brunswick Record Company Of Chicago Jabbo Smith Formed His Rhythm Aces A Quintet With Which He Recorded Nineteen Sides From January To August 1929. In These Works Jabbo Displays Extraordinary Virtuosity And Exemplary Musicianship On Trumpet As Well As Vocal. Possibly Because The Work Was Too Advanced Or Sophisticated The Records Were Not Accepted By The Public And Have Until Recently Been Largely Forgotten. Hayes Alvis Tuba
