This is volume five in the Classics Mildred Bailey chronology. It contains all
of the Vocalion records she made between January 18 and June 14, 1939. For all
of her concessions to mainstream pop culture, Mildred Bailey was a
blues-inflected jazz singer with traditional roots reaching back into the early
'20s. Each of the ensembles featured on this particular compilation are
decidedly hipper than most of her previous backup bands. Bailey's March 16, 1939
session with pianist Mary Lou Williams, guitarist Floyd Smith, bassist John
Williams and drummer Eddie Dougherty resulted in a series of fine and soulful
renderings of old time melodies like the "Arkansas Blues," "Gulf Coast Blues,"
"You Don't Know My Mind Blues" and Russ Columbo's "Prisoner of Love." Sixteen of
this compilation's 22 tracks feature the John Kirby Sextet. This brilliant and
creatively concise group had a frontline of trumpeter Charlie Shavers,
clarinetist Buster Bailey and alto saxophonist Russell Procope; its well-oiled
rhythm section contained pianist Billy Kyle, bassist John Kirby and drummer
O'Neill Spencer. This little band was capable of handling material from the
jazz, pop and European classical traditions; the Bailey/Kirby magic is most
evident on Cole Porter's "Begin the Beguine," Ziggy Elman's "And the Angels
Sing," Lovie Austin and Alberta Hunter's "Down Hearted Blues" and the "Tit
Willow" aria from Gilbert & Sullivan's Mikado. On most of the Kirby sides,
xylophonist Red Norvo can be heard obviously enjoying the opportunity to
collaborate with exceptionally gifted improvisers. Premonitions of things to
come! Norvo dissolved his big band in June 1939, not long after the recording of
"I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles," and began working with smaller, more
modern-sounding ensembles. While Red Norvo would become an integral participant
in the bop revolution of the '40s and '50s, Mildred Bailey's career gradually
decelerated during the '40s, particularly after her health began to deteriorate.
The records she cut during the first half of 1939 add up to some of the best
music she ever made. For that reason, this particular installment in Mildred
Bailey's Classics chronology is most highly recommended.
