Editorial Reviews
Product Description
BD Jazz is a new label which offers listeners an introduction to some of the greatest jazz musicians of our time through a two disc set of their most-loved songs. Additionally, a 16 page illustrated book is included, which offers an insight into their lives and music. This specially formatted piece is a must-have for jazz fans as well as jazz neophytes trying to learn about the genre.
Jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, born in Belgium in 1910, remains one of Europe's most important contributions to Jazz. Raised in a gypsy community outside of Paris, Reinhardt lost the use of his forth and fifth fingers on his left hand in a caravan fire, which some say resulted in his truly unique playing style. His recordings on Ultraphone, Decca and HMV are among the finest jazz guitar playing ever to be recorded.

This specially formatted piece is a must-have for jazz fans as well as jazz neophytes trying to learn about the genre.Born Eleanora Fagan Gough on April 7th, 1915 in Philadelphia, PA, Billie Holiday is perhaps the most revered vocalist in all of jazz music. Songs like "God Bless The Child" and "Strange Fruit", are moving classics. Even though a hard life of drugs, alcohol and depression led to Holiday's early demise in 1959, her music lives on, and sounds just as vibrant and warm today as it did then.

This specially formatted piece is a must-have for jazz fans as well as jazz neophytes trying to learn about the genre.Famed trumpeter Dizzy Gillepsie, born in 1917 in South Carolina, was stylistically and technically unparalleled for more than thirty years (when some argue John Faddis became heir to the Gillespie throne). Playing in the bands of Ella Fitzgerald, Coleman Hawkins, Benny Carter, Charlie Barnet, Fess Williams, Duke Ellington, Cab Callaway and many others before great success as a bandleader, Dizzie Gillespie is truly a giant of jazz.

This specially formatted piece is a must-have for jazz fans as well as jazz neophytes trying to learn about the genre.Lester Young, nicknamed "Pres" by Billie Holiday, is one of jazz's great tenor saxophonists. He is perhaps best known for his work in the Count Basie Orchestra as well as his recordings with Billie Holiday and Teddy Wilson. Along with John Coltrane and Coleman Hawkins, Young is considered one of the greatest saxophonists of all time. Young's experiences with war and particularly racism during his stint as a soldier during WWII left his mental outlook permanently scarred. Though he continued to play and record, some say that he never fully recovered. Young drank himself to death in 1959.

This specially formatted piece is a must-have for jazz fans as well as jazz neophytes trying to learn about the genre.Charlie Parker, aka `Bird', is recognized as one of the originators of bebop, along with Dizzy Gillespie and Bud Powell. Parker's collaborations with Gillespie in 1945 set the jazz world on fire with their musical complexity and evolution of the jazz idiom. Parker also led a quintet in 1947 that included Miles Davis, Max Roach, Duke Jordan and Tommy Potter. Unfortunately Parker died at 34 due to a life of excesses, but his early passing has only served to enhance his stature in the jazz community, creating a legend that lives to this day.

Whereas Billie Holiday often emoted extreme pain in her songs, Fitzgerald was just the opposite. Her beautiful voice was matched with technical excellence and a brilliant scat technique, making her a truly original and magical vocalist.

Although he was one of the first important New Orleans jazz soloists and a fantastic soprano saxophonist and clarinetist, Bechet was never truly appreciated in the United States. Although his career began in 1917, his career did not truly flourish until 1949, when he became an overnight sensation in France based on his phenomenal performance at the Salle Pleyel Jazz Festival in Paris.

He shared with those peers a career that encompassed hits such as "Unforgettable", international touring, radio and television shows, and appearances in films. Before his emergence as a pop singer, Cole also spent a decade as a celebrated jazz pianist, leading his own small group.
