  1. Illinois Jacquet - Swing's the Thing

    1956 and Jacquet is making a great case for why Swing should get more respect. Just a whole lot of energetic fun, and when the tempo slows down, some beautiful ballad playing.

    With Jacquet (tenor), Roy Eldridge (trumpet), Jimmy Jones (piano), Herb Ellis (guitar), Ray Brown (bass), and Jo Jones—no, not Philly Joe Jones—on drums.

  4. Vor 100 Jahren geboren - Der Jazzsaxofonist Illinois Jacquet

    Sein Solo über Lionel Hamptons "Flying Home" machte ihn berühmt: Illinois Jacquets Improvisation war so gelungen, dass andere große Saxofonisten es Note für Note nachspielten. Seine Popularität nutzte er, um gegen die Rassentrennung zu protestieren.
