{"product_id":"woody-herman-collection-1937-56-cd","title":"Woody Herman - Collection 1937-56 (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails: \u003c\/strong\u003eClarinettist and bandleader Woody Herman was one of the leading figures of the swing era and beyond, with his various bands, generally known as \"Herman's Herd\", being known for the force and originality of their music, which was often cutting edge and experimental for it's time. However, his records were always very popular, and regularly featured in the Billboard charts from the 1930s through to the 1950s. This collection, unusually perhaps for jazz music, focuses on those chart hits, and primarily comprises the 34 chart hits he had, which included the No. 1 hit \"Blues In The Night\" and the Top 5 hits \"Laura\" and \"Caldonia\". Herman himself was a noted vocalist, and he features as a singer on some of these titles, while others provide a showcase for two of his female singers during the '40s, Frances Wayne and Muriel Lane. Alongside those hits, and interspersed within the chronological presentation of the 44 recordings in the 2-CD collection, are other titles which were not hits, but which are recognised by commentators and critics and being among his most interesting and notable recordings, such as his suite, with Igor Stravinsky conducting, called \"The Ebony Concerto\". The range of material in this anthology provides a fascinating overview of the Herman's innovative, but always fresh and entertaining music during this dynamic era in jazz and popular music.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Double Dare You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Woodchopper's Ball\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Blue Evening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e There I Go\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Frenesi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Blue Flame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e G'bye Now\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e By-U By-O (The Lou'siana Lullaby)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Blues in the Night (My Mama Done Tol' Me)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Rose O'Day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Amen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Four or Five Times\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Do Nothin' Till You Hear from Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Music Stopped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e By the River of the Roses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Milkman Keep Those Bottles Quiet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Let Me Love You Tonight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Saturday Night (Is the Loneliest Night in the Week)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Laura\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Apple Honey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Caldonia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e A Kiss Goodnight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Northwest Passage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fan It\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Gee It's Good to Hold You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Everybody Knew But Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Let It Snow!
