Rube Bloom & His Bayou Boys - The Man From The South, 1930

Stan King was such a stylish and propulsive drummer...he really helps kick this one along!

A time when even "modern" architecture had not lost its human connection.This is a wonderful find.Thanks to Mr.T.Warner!

In 1942 we used to go downtown looking for old jazz records. I came across this thick record with the  "St James Infermary Blues" and bought it. There was a bite out of the side so it sold for 5c. instead of .10. When I got home the "Man from the south" was on the other side! The only way I could sing the "sooooooooooo" was to gargle water at the same time. I still have the record, and for the very first time, today I heard the beginning! What a Christmas present!!!!!!

Now that you mention it, seems more likely that it is a Bb Bass Sax, as that is really what Rollini was known for - thanks! :-)

Bloom was also a favourite pianist for Ruth Etting, and the big female singers of the day. Bloom. He had a mastery of the piano that no one else had. Adrian Rollini playing EbBari Sax figures on this record as well.

I think Rollini is on a B flat Bass. That is way to low for baritone sax.
