Django Reinhardt, Coleman Hawkins, Dicky Wells, Andre Ekyan, Philipe Brun, Eddie South, Stephane Grappelli, Trio Do Violins
The Swing Sessions, Vol. 1 features the first recordings Reinhardt made for Swing in 1937. The Swing label was formed in 1937 by Charles Delaunay and Jean Berard with the idea to "record good, unadulterated jazz," a goal at which they succeeded. The arrangements vary quite a bit from Reinhardt's Quintet of the Hot Club of France recordings. On the first ten cuts, the guitarist supplies an underpinning of rhythm for Coleman Hawkins & His All Star Jam Band and Dicky Wells & His Orchestra, respectively. A number of other cuts find Reinhardt in smaller duo, trio, and quartet settings. While all the material is first rate, the smaller settings allow Reinhardt's guitar to play a more prominent and perhaps more interesting role. Guitarist Louis Gaste and bassist Eugene d' Hellemmes provide Reinhardt with something like a stripped-down Hot Club backing for vibrant takes on "Saint Louis Blues" and "Bouncing Around." Reinhardt in turn provides backing for violinist Eddie South on "Eddie's Blues" and "Sweet Georgia Brown," then backs Stephane Grappelli on "I've Found a New Baby." There's a fabulous version of "Oh! Lady Be Good" with three violinists, and driven versions of "Charleston" and "Chicago" by the Quintet of the Hot Club of France. Historically, The Swing Sessions, Vol. 1 offers another look at the sheer breadth of Reinhardt's work in 1937, as well as the birth of the first record label devoted exclusively to jazz. Musically, the album delivers 75 minutes of beautifully conceived and executed sessions.
