"Clementine" by Jean Goldkette

I still think that some of Bill Rank's trombone solos should be considered, more-highly. In the early days of jazz, there were some GREAT, trombone soloists, and he deserves a better place. ... No need to comment on Bix; the Davenport fellow was a LEADER, unique and lamented. Thanks again for the upload!

I love the way Eddie Lang's guitar comes through.

The best. Everyone hits it at their peak. Of course Bix, but even Joe coming in with that unique sweet violin of his to take the piece through end..... And what a superb transfer to video.... Well done!!!!

[jhb134]

Nice, relaxed tempo ... Bix is easily-discernible in the ensembles, punctuating with his pithy originality ... and it all leads-to two, more fine solos by the Davenport fellow. Many thanks for the video!

Is this a variation on masturbation?

[Philflash]

That is amazingly clear!

[marvalhat13]

Isn't this the song that Goldkette used to blow Fletcher Henderson's band out of the water in a battle of the bands in N.Y.?

Thanks for posting some classic Bix! My great aunts were flappers in the 1920's and loved his music.

What a swinging band. And Bix just so silky and on it. Great video, mesmerising!

Thanks so much for sharing this video. I have many digital recordings from the era, but nothing as meaningful as seeing the needle being set on the real thing....and such a wonderful record at that.....it really does bring tears to my eyes.

Thaks for correcting me and giving information on the recording.

Bill Challis did the arrangement on this recording. Unfortunately the Goldkette band didn't record some some of Challis hotter arrangements like Blue Room and Milenberg Joys. On my page I have a recording from a radio show from 1938 called Design for Dancing. This show featured a top name arranger. I have a recording of the show when Bill Challis was the guest arranger, The band plays Challis arrangement of Milenberg Joys. I wonder if this is the same arrangement he did for the Goldkette band?

Challis had already left to join Whiteman when this was made. No Spiegel either: Rank and Lloyd Turner.

[Victrolaman1]

Is Speigel on this one? If this is your only copy,I would use a modern stylus and save the record.Thanks for playing it.

Awesome!!!

[cruddiestcrudever]

Wow no scratching or popping, thats a great record!

[fatsfan70]

Bix, Venuti and Lang were never better than on this great recording, not to mention Bill Rank's fine early break. Thank you so much.
