    1. Mi dispiace Alvin, ma "Le Chant du Monde" ha solo 10 Cds (dal 1906 al 1952). Se hai un link per altri 15 Cds successivi al 1952, sarei molto interessato, ovviamente. Farò qualche ricerca... Grazie!

  4. Thanks again for this most interesting series Patrick, I've just been listening to Vol 9&10. It was most interesting to see (hear) the development of jazz/R&B piano. The early volumes in this series heavily featured the blues-boogie-woogie players & the jazz ragtime players, these styles were obviously the roots of so many that followed. Even Nat King Cole, I had not heard those very early boogie-woogie tracks before, so obviously he started as just another blues/boogie player before getting into pop ballads and hit parade music, then with these final 2 volumes in the series the jazz piano playing had progressed beyond the boogie-woogie to the development of a distinctive genre.

  5. I agree with you; the two "friends" from Le Chant du Monde did some truly extraordinary research—Alvin thinks so too. It’s a shame it stops at 1952, though!
    Still, I think the early days of piano jazz—rooted in the blues—were crucial for the inspiration that followed. As you said, the early 40s and 50s paved the way for bebop, hard bop, and even R&B and rock 'n' roll—I'm thinking of Jerry Lee and Ray Charles. It’s a fascinating era...
