before 1959

A jazz legend and the heavyweight of the tenor saxophone, the first to use the instrument as a serious means of expression.

Coleman Hawkins 

Blue Moments by Connie's Inn Orchestra

Someday, Sweetheart by Hawkins Orchestra

from Selected Sessions (1931-1934)

An operatic tenor who broke the color barrier in one of Cuba's most prestigious orchestras, and a musical ambassador to the United States and Europe, Antonio Machín was a pivotal figure in the history of Cuban music who is not always remembered as such. 

Antonio Machín 

Mujer

Rumba Tambah

from Vol. 2 - 1932-1933

The salient feature of Machín's early life was that his ambition to sing opera was frustrated by that fact that he was born a poor mulatto in Cuba at the turn of the century. There is an operatic sensibility in his best performances -- El Manisero, Lamento Esclavo, Blanca Rosa -- that makes one wonder how he would have handled Verdi. In any case, in 1926 Machín made his way to Havana from Sagua La Grande, his birthplace on the northern part of the island, determined to become a singer. He soon became a featured vocalist at the Casino Nacional of Havana, the first singer of color ever to do so...

Sibling trio whose sophisticated brand of close, jazzy harmony coupled with bluesy inflections made them stars of the 1930s.

Boswell Sisters 

Wha'd Ja Do to Me? (Milton Ager)

Roll On, Mississippi, Roll On (James McCaffry / Dave Ringle / Eugene West)

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea (Harold Arlen / Ted Koehler)

from The Boswell Sisters Collection, Vol. 1: 1931-1932 [Collectors']

Most vocal groups that attempt to sing jazz instead end up in the genre of middle-of-road pop music. The Boswell Sisters (comprised of Connee, Vet, and Martha) were a strong exception, always swinging and, by changing tempos and keys frequently while including some other surprises, performing creative jazz of the early '30s.... With a supporting cast frequently including trumpeters Bunny Berigan and Manny Klein, trombonist Tommy Dorsey, and clarinetist Jimmy Dorsey (all of whom receive a generous amount of solo space), the sisters are heard at their best throughout this consistently exciting set....
