This CD could be thought of as a companion set to our previous issue entitled “Bring on the Girls”(RTR 79060), which consisted of 24 tracks by various women singers who were not Jazz singers per se but were quite happy with a variety of jazz accompaniments. Here it’s males who are in the spotlight..
  • Male, sometimes almost forgotten vocalists of end twenties and beginning of the thirties last century
  • These are jazz accompaniments but not sung by jazz singers per se
  • Treasures of forgotten jazz-times
  • Put together and researched by none other than ´walking jazz encyclopedia´ Chris Ellis!
  • Together with the previous female version of this cd, this disc is another wonderful jazz-archeology project of Retrieval
  • Retrieval in this way has a dominant contribution in jazz history for dusting off all this old, great music!
  • Contains previously unissued material!

Some of these male singers were very well known in their time and recorded quite a lot. Of others one can find very little. These recordings are, all put together a unique musical document of the late twenties and beginning of the thirties of the 20th Century. Through this music history stays very much alive!
