Synopsis

Album Description
Will Bradley rose to fame in the early 1940?s, but was never widely acclaimed as other jazz trombonists although he had a beautiful tone, good range and technique all of which can be heard to good effect on these two complete broadcasts, from the Famous Door in 1940 & Hotel Astor in 1941. Featured is Ray McKinley singing his goofy and often inane novelty numbers whilst creating exciting drum effects. Freddy Slack is also featured on the first broadcast as is the delightful singing voice of Carlotta Dale with Terry Allen, an impressive baritone, misgendered by the announcer on the second, giving us 60 minutes of one of best swinging big bands of the 40?s..
