A series of great JAZZ Records from early Ragtime to Beb-Bop on 78 rpm Victrola Records Ted Lewis had been Columbias recording star bandleader for over a decade. His often hot jazz arrangements were best sellers in the 1920s. Here in two College Dance favorites SWEET HEART of SIGMA CHI/ GOOD NIGHT - w Taps played by Band 10" 78 rpm record Condition: EXCELLENT MINUS light rubs Plays EXCEPTIONALLY quiet faintest hiss A GREAT COPY From RedhotJazz Site Ted was called the "High Hat Tragedian of Song". He was a true Vaudevillian. He had no voice, but could "put over" a song. He played what he himself called a "gashouse" clarinet, yet he had one of the best of the commercial Dixieland bands, with a real feel for the Blues (billing himself as "The Medicine Man of the Blues"). Perhaps his best hits were "When My Baby Smiles at Me" and "Me and My Shadow". He really didn't 'sing' these songs, he spoke them. (Diseuse - Sprechgesang). Even today's listeners still tap their feet and smile while listening to his music. Ted Lewis and his Band was one of the best selling Jazz bands of the 1920s and Lewis was Columbia Records best selling artist. Lewis got his start with Earl Fuller's Famous Jazz Band in 1917, but his clarinet antics soon made him the star of the group and he went solo in 1919, taking most of the musicians from Fuller's band with him. In 1924 Lewis hired George Brunies of the New Orleans Rhythm Kings and in 1928 he hired Muggsy Spainer. Over the years many up-and-coming Jazz greats like Benny Goodman, Jack Teagarden and Jimmy Dorsey passed through the band early in their careers. With all of this talent passing through the band they were really starting to swing by the early 1930s as evidenced in tunes like Jazznocracy, White Heat and Rhythm, but as the Depression worn on Lewis had become more of a Pop vocalist and Jazz was not figuring as prominently in the mix. Most modern Jazz histories overlook or downplay Ted Lewis' role in the development of Jazz. When he is mentioned he is often dismissed as being commercial and corny, but Lewis was a true Jazz pioneer and on his best songs like Dip Your Brush In Sunshine it is easy to understand why he was so popular.
