Each week the band researched songs from a different year,beginning with 1920 and moving chronologically to 1944, seeking outoriginal sheet music and early recordings to inform their melodic andharmonic decisions. The sessions not only provided income for themusicians when there were no gigs to be found, but created a wonderfulonline community of listeners who would tune in every Sunday.Buzz from the Vol. 1 Release: Glenn is such an ardent keeper of the flame, and as these performances reveal, he brings the music vividly to life - Bravo!- Loren Schoenberg, GRAMMY-winning author, Senior Scholar of the National Jazz Museum in Harlem [The Songbook Sessions anthology] isnt a museum piece. This is living, breathing, swinging music that folks will still be enjoying a hundred years from today. More, please!- Ricky Riccardi, GRAMMY-winning author, historian, Director of Research Collections for the Louis Armstrong House Museum This record is timeless. The solo improvisations bring back memories of Bix and of listening to Wild Bill Davidson, Pee Wee Russell and Ralph Sutton at my fathers Jazz Club, while the guitar sets a seamless, solid rhythm that reminds me of my childhood listening to my dad, Eddie Condon, on his Gibson.- Maggie Condon, daughter of Jazz Age guitarist and bandleader Eddie Condon Please be aware of the following age-related restrictions for this event: Ages 10+.
