Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars More than your money's worth.......2006-06-09

Sweet Georgia Brown is probably worth the price of the whole CD all by itself. Jones was a huge influence on every jazz drummer who followed him, and if you don't have any of his work this is the place to start. Amazing stuff. I dare you to stand still and listen to it.

5 out of 5 stars Papa Joe's rare solo outings.......2005-06-03

It is really about time that someone put these treasured recordings on disc. Jo Jones, the father of modern drumming only made a few solo albums in his 5 decade long career and here's two of them on one CD. Half trio and half sextet - this truly showcases his amazing technique and unparralelled brushwork - he even uses his hands on a few cuts. This guy was truly a magician - the trio sides feature Ray and Tom Bryant and the sextet sides feature Sweets Edison, Bennie Green, Tommy Flanagan, Jimmy Forest and Tommy Potter. Find me any modern drummer who's half as good as Jo Jones and I'll eat this review
