Formed in Seattle, in 1985, The Evergreen Classic Jazz Band plays lesser-known music of the '20s and '30s. For this album the band goes back even further in the teens, songs just about 100 years old. The ECJB has captured the style and essence of original performances, without rote replication. Reinterpretation of material originally done by larger groups is not easy, but the ECJB gets a big sound through fresh, distinctive voicings from the front line threesome, and tight, clear execution from the rhythm section. Leader Tom Jacobus plays some fine tuba and provides most of the musical arrangements.

Kahil El'Zabar, drums, earth drums, kalimba; Corey Wilkes, trumpet, flugelhorn, percussion; Ernest Dawkins, alto and tenor saxophone, percussion; Fareed Haque, electric and acoustic guitar. In a Down Beat review of their previous Delmark album, Freedom Jazz Dance (517) Paul de Barros wrote "The forms being advanced here-or at least merged in a creative, new way-are African-American syncopation (funk, jazz) and the vertically integrated multiple parts of African drum ensemble music. With folkish simplicity and beguilingly subdued dynamics, Ethnic Heritage Ensemble-drums, guitar and two horns-achieves an effect something like an ad hoc percussion band walking the second line, with a little James Brown thrown in."

This 1997 release features Billy Harper, Carter Jefferson, Joe Ford, Dee Alexader, Ron Bridgewater and others. A lyrical bop player and cutting-edge free jazz musician, Malachi liked to call his music Freebop; a sound that simultaneously includes blues, straight ahead jazz, the funky grit of soul jazz, African roots and the dazzling extroverted technique of the modern era. 47th Street (the album) is Thompson's musical tribute to a vibrant period of black Chicago history, a period of economic vitality and cultural fluidity that made 47th Street (the actual street) the mainstream of black Chicago.

This is the OSD's third Delmark outing - on the first, they supported Clancy Hays, and on the second, they joined Franz Jackson. The OSD are generally classified as a West Coast traditional revival jazz band, playing in a style whose origins date back to the 1920s. But their music is a synthesis of styles transcending the revivalist category, because you'll hear echoes of Bix, Red Nichols, as well as the old New Orleanians. This album was recorded in 1966 & contains 14 songs, including 5 bonus tracks.
