Synopsis

Product Description
Who would ever have imagined that the best jazz band since the classic bands of the 1920s - King Oliver's Creole Jazz Band and Jelly Roll Morton's Red Hot Peppers, would be located in Buenos Aires? That is exactly what happened in 1966 when Turk Murphy, trombonist and leader of Turk Murphy's San Franpcisco Jazz Band, first heard an album by Portena Jazz Band and he commented, 'They would blow us into the bay.' They are sensational and perform in the true spirit and style of the jazz age. 23 tracks including: High Society, King Porter Stomp, Weary Blues, Perfect Rag, Saratoga Swing and more.
