Annette Hanshaw - Lover Come Back To Me (1929)

Annette Hanshaw (oct.18.1901 - mar.13.1985)

was one of the first great female jazz singers. In the late 1920s she ranked alongside Ethel Waters, Bessie Smith and the Boswell Sisters.

Her singing style was relaxed and suited the new jazz-influenced pop music of the late 1920s. Although she had a low opinion of her own singing, she continues to have fans because of how she combined the voice of an ingenue with the spirit of a flapper.

Eddie Lang (okt.25,1902 - mar.26,1933)

He was the first Jazz guitar virtuoso. A boyhood friend of Joe Venuti, Lang took violin lessons for 11 years but switched to guitar before he turned professional in 1924 with the Mound City Blue Blowers. He was soon in great demand for recording dates, both in the jazz world and in pop settings. His sophisticated European sounding chord patterns made him a unique accompanist, but he was also a fine soloist.

Music grows and changes; it evolves and adapts with time. This music of old, while a brilliant masterpiece, made way for others to follow. No artist would ever deliberately want people to enjoy their work alone, but to appreciate it along with many others that came after.

However, music today is more an off-shot dead branch on the family tree.

I think I'm in love

I agree - whatever happened to good music like this. I can understand some artists speeding up the tempo some yet keeping the sweet melody and harmony. What gets my goat is when someone tries to play this like they are in a panic. Even at that, the pop music of today stinks when compared to good music like this.
