Rosetta - Henry Red Allen ( 1906-1967)

Allen's trumpet style has been said by some critics to be the first to fully incorporate the innovations of Louis Armstrong and then go beyond Armstrong. Allen's recordings received much favorable attention. His versatility is shown by his winning of Down Beat awards in both the traditional jazz and the modern jazz categories. In 1959 Allen made his first tour of Europe when he joined Kid Ory's band.
Red Allen made a celebrated appearance on the legendary "Sound Of Jazz" television show on which he nearly stole the show; the program, filmed "live" in December 1957 is still considered the greatest jazz television program ever recorded. In this clip he performs in 1964 with the English band of Alex Welsh.
