My three posts on Tatum’s amazing and little-known “avant-garde” side have been widely read. (You can find all my Tatum posts in the Index.) I will tell you right now that this recording of a radio broadcast does not contain those kinds of revelations. Still, it is always big news when more Tatum is discovered. And, the repertory is of interest: It contains “Dark Eyes,” followed by the only known version of “St. Louis Blues” with his trio, including Tiny Grimes on guitar and Slam Stewart on bass. (He did record that blues as a solo piano piece.)
Sounds like the MC from the Yacht Club.
That's a good lead--I'll check it out--THANKS STEVE!
