From the alternative-rock fanatic who will gladly blow $500 on a bunch of
Nirvana bootlegs at a CD swap meet to the jazzhead who would like to own
everything that Chet Baker ever recorded, collectors can be an obsessive bunch.
The casual listener might have a hard time understanding that obsession and
wonder why collectors insist on hearing 50 different live performances of
Nirvana's "Heart Shaped Box," or why they will go out of their way to acquire a
Baker recording that the trumpeter himself would have considered less than
essential. But for collectors, their addiction is endlessly fascinating. Serious
jazz collectors are the target audience of Classics, a small French label that
has, since 1989, been reissuing artists' recordings in chronological order.
Classics' forte is pre-1950 master recordings from the 78 era -- the company
usually doesn't get into alternate takes (although some completists wish that it
did), nor does it concern itself with recordings from the LP era. In 1999,
Classics celebrated its tenth anniversary with this three-CD set, which isn't a
sampler but rather a collection of rarities and odds and ends that, for various
reasons, didn't appear on previous Classics collections. Spanning 1924-1949,
Classics: Complementary Tracks contains material by some well-known jazzmen
(including Don Redman, Slim Gaillard, and Chick Webb) along with little known
recordings by such obscure improvisers as stride pianist Garnet Clark,
bandleader Alphonso Trent, clarinetist Omer Simeon, and female swing vocalist
Jerry Kruger. Those with a taste for the esoteric will appreciate hearing singer
Midge Williams' ultra-rare Japanese translations of "St. Louis Blues," "Dinah,"
and "Lazy Bones," all recorded with Japanese musicians in Tokyo in 1934.
Meanwhile, disc three focuses on mostly well-known artists and sets out to
correct various things that Classics felt needed correcting. For example, the
spoken introductions to several Pete Johnson sides from 1946 are re-added, and
the full versions of eight Bunny Berigan performances from 1936 are provided.
Generally decent and occasionally excellent, Classics: Complementary Tracks
isn't recommended to the casual jazz fan but is interesting and enjoyable if
you're a seasoned jazz collector.~Alex Henderson
