Description
78 (80 RPM) RECORD - EDISON 51566 - BILLY WYNNE'S GREENWICH VILLAGE INN ORCHESTRA PLAYING: "PANGO PANGO MAID"(10393B) AND "BRIGHTER DAYS"(10394C). RECORDED ON MAY 22, 1925, THIS IS THE BEST EXAMPLE OF RED NICHOLS SOLOING WITH A LARGER GROUP DURING THE CHARLESTON ERA. PANGO BEGINS WITH THE BAND STATING THE MELODY AND THEN RED RIPS INTO A FULL 32 BAR CHORUS (PICKED UP WELL BY EDISON'S RECORDING HORN). THERE IS ALSO A FULL CHORUS BY ALTO SAX (LARRY ABBOTT, ARNOLD BRILHART OR ALFIE EVANS). THE OTHER SIDE IS ALSO PLAYED AT A BRIGHT TEMPO AND RED AGAIN TAKES A 32 BAR CHORUS. THIS HAS TOO BE ONE OF THE FINEST JAZZ RECORDS EDISON EVER ISSUED OUTSIDE OF THE RED AND MIFF'S STOMPERS SESSIONS RECORDED MORE THAN A YEAR LATER. THE RECORD IS IN "E" TO "E+" CONDITION (CLOSER TO "E+" FOR MOST OF THE RECORD IF PLAYED WITH A REGULAR LP STYLUS IN VERTICAL MODE). THIS EDISON RECORD HAS NEVER BEEN REISSUED ON LP OR CD SO IT IS A MUST FOR ANY NICHOLS COLLECTOR! STARTING BID IS $39.99. PLEASE SEE MY OTHER LISTINGS FOR MORE RED NICHOLS AND CALIFORNIA RAMBLERS ON EDISON.
