A True Fan Of Jimmie Lunceford's Wrote:
The Jimmie Lunceford Orch. playing Nagasaki. My guess is that this was probably filmed around 1934. The middle trumpeter is Sy Oliver, one of the greatest jazz arrangers of all time. The talent here is extraordinary, Where can you find players today who can match those in this band?
Tha Artivist Says: This is another reason why everyone should be supporting the first annual Jimmie Lunceford Jamboree Festival...Get off the sidelines of history and get in the game today!!!
