@dramabeats111 Strong words... I think Hawk had a lot more harmonic knowledge than Chu. But it is true, that we will never know, how his genius would grow and what would happen... poor Chu Berry. His death actually really hit Hawk emotionally.
@MrJimmienoone Your are correct. This tune also appeared on the JAZZTONE label in the fifties as "Chu Berry's Little Jazz Ensemble". LITTLE JAZZ was the nickname of Roy Eldridge. Apart from Berry and Eldridge there are Clyde Hart p, Danny Barker g, Artie Shapiro b and Sid Catlett dr.
Well, I can only say that it was included in a four disc compilation with Roy Eldridge and if you listen to about 0:08 to 0:10 you'll hear something very Royish.
Roy's one of the greatest! I love his interplay with Chu in the ending! Yeah this is Roy!
Is this Stardust?! It has to be, that's one of my favorite ones. They murdered it! (I mean in a good way). This is some bad stuff right here. Does anyone know what year this was? Hot Lips is killin' it on that last 8 bars!
Cet enregistrement est selon moi et de très loin la plus belle version de Stardust sans oublier bien sûr la version live de 1941 de Don Byas au Minton's avec Helen Humes, Thelonious Monk et Joe Guy. On n'évincera pas non plus l'enregistrement de Coleman Hawkins et Django Reinhardt en 1935, la très belle version de 1936 de Tommy Dorsey et Edith Wright, pleine de charme et de chaleur, et pour finir les versions de Jack Jenney et Charlie Christian.
Sorry, it's not Roy. Probably not Page. Probably Berry.

It`s definitely Eldridge, not Page. The pianist is probably Clyde Hart.

Chu Berry is the greatest muscial you never heard of ,
He played with Lionel Hampton made only a few records
and was from Kansas City like Bird, Hawk and Pres.
he died early I think at 32.
