For this disc, the Fat Babies' pianist, Paul Asaro, takes center stage for a collection of pieces composed by or associated with Jelly Roll Morton. The arrangements and performances are inspired by Morton's classic \"Red Hot Peppers\" recordings though some, like \"Spanish Swat,\" \"Tiger Rag,\" and \"Croc-O-Dile Cradle,\" went unrecorded by Morton's Red Hot Peppers. These are stunning performances recorded in brilliant modern sound. The Fat Babies are Paul Asaro (piano and vocals), Andy Schumm (cornet and alto sax), John Otto (clarinet), Dave Bock (trombone), Jake Sanders (banjo and guitar), Beau Sample (string bass and tuba), Alex Hall (drums). CD and LP include an illustrated booklet with liner notes by Paul Asaro. 48 minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRivermont catalogue number: BSW-2238 (Audio CD) \/ BLV-2238 (Vinyl LP

Paul Asaro and The Fat Babies

Sweet Jazz Music: The Music of Jelly Roll Morton

The Fat Babies are a seven-piece jazz band who play the classic styles of the 1920s and 1930s. "Few ensembles today play early-period jazz as authentically and exuberantly as the Fat Babies," writes Howard Reich of the Chicago Tribune. For this disc, the Fat Babies' pianist, Paul Asaro, takes center stage for a collection of pieces composed by or associated with Jelly Roll Morton. The arrangements and performances are inspired by Morton's classic "Red Hot Peppers" recordings though some, like "Spanish Swat," "Tiger Rag," and "Croc-O-Dile Cradle," went unrecorded by Morton's Red Hot Peppers. These are stunning performances recorded in brilliant modern sound. The Fat Babies are Paul Asaro (piano and vocals), Andy Schumm (cornet and alto sax), John Otto (clarinet), Dave Bock (trombone), Jake Sanders (banjo and guitar), Beau Sample (string bass and tuba), Alex Hall (drums). CD and LP include an illustrated booklet with liner notes by Paul Asaro. 48 minutes.

Wow!

I admit, I've never really taken the time to listen to Jelly Roll Morton - but I think Mr. Asaro and his group has changed that.

SWEET AND HOT

Paul Asaro’s previous Rivermont CD was a tribute to Fats Waller, which I enthused about at the time, and “Sweet Jazz Music” The Music of Jelly Roll Morton , a reconstruction of Morton’s Red Hot Peppers, is equally sensational. Morton was an extrovert, and that came across in his compositions, which reflected the various influences he’d absorbed growing up in New Orleans. Paul’s vibrant arrangements include not only Morton’s recordings, but also a previously unknown composition by him, and the application of his methods to a jazz standard which he never recorded. The musicians play with obvious delight, recapturing the frisson that the original recordings generated, and the result is a triumph, in stunning sound quality.
