The group left New York to accompany Ethel Waters under the leadership of George Scott. They returned to New York sometime in 1928 with the name The Missourians and vocalist Lockwood Lewis and became the house band at the Savoy. These recordings span from 1925 until a month before the Missourians hired a new vocalist, Cab Calloway who renamed the group, "Cab Calloway And His Orchestra" and became the house band at the Cotton Club when Ellington left for Hollywood.

NAT SHILKRET AND THE ALL STAR ORCHESTRA	MORE THAN SATISFIED (1926-1928)	CD: $17.25 (US) - NEW ($15.53 with *discount)	VINTAGE MUSIC	2005
BIG BAND, SWING, TRAD JAZZ : [1926-1928] The complete recordings of Nat Shilkret's All Star Orchestra. Featuring Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey, Glenn Miller and Jimmy McPartland. With Miff Mole, Joe Venuti, Carl Kress, Johnny Marvin and Chauncey Morehouse. In all, the All Star Orchestra made 18 recordings, from December 1927 to November 1929. Of these, 16 were released. While jazz enthusiasts will find much that is significant in these recordings, there are two which stand out above the others. These are the recordings of 'I'm More Than Satisfied' and 'Oh, Baby!' Both were recorded on March 21, 1928. The session was Benny Goodman's first, in New York. It was also the very first time that Benny Goodman recorded with Tommy Dorsey. At first glance, the band's name might appear to be just another case of over-used hyperbole. Except among those who were most acquainted with the band's members, this might have seemed the case, even in 1928 and 1929. But looking back, today, we know that Nat Shilkret kept the band true to its name. For it was, in fact, an All Star Orchestra. (Personnel: Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey, Glenn Miller, Jimmy McPartland, Miff Mole, Joe Venuti, Carl Kress, Johnny Marvin, Chauncey Morehouse).

Fiction: Used, Excellent- minus condition with VG+ Jacket. The first of a trilogy, this (perhaps justifiably) paranoia-fueled near-future fantasy/thriller, derived from the latest political and technological trends, serves as the debut of an author who lives "off the grid" and will speak to the public only through e-mail or a voice scrambler and satellite phone. The story opens by introducing Maya, a Harlequin: a warrior trained from childhood to protect the enlightened beings known as Travelers from the Tabula. The Tabula are the secret masters of the Vast Machine, the intricate web of surveillance and bureaucracy that controls the world population. The psychic abilities of and the social movements instigated by Travelers tend to disrupt that absolute, rigid control. Today, the Travelers and their guardians verge on extinction. Maia herself has rejected her heritage for the past three years, living a regular life and attempting to block out the memories of her last, disastrous Harlequin assignment. But now Maia's wheelchair-bound father, Thorn, has forced his daughter back into the fold, directing her to protect two newly emerged Travelers under threat from the massive, menacing resources of the Tabula.

THE EDLOS	RETROPELLA	CD: $10.00 (US) - NEW ($9.00 with *discount)	AURIGA	2003
acapella, rock, soul, rhythm & blues: The Edlos do the 60s - Far Out! Take a far out ride through the 60s and early 70s with the Edlos. There are some very clever adaptations of songs we have never heard arranged a cappella before such as Jethro Tull's "Aqualung", Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit", Led Zeplin's "Stairway to Heaven" (all 6 minutes of it) and - would you believe - "Tequila", trumpets and all? There are also a couple of a cappella standards done with a twist such as "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" (they call it "Wimoweh"). "Hurdy Gurdy Man" is sung employing a vocal technique explored in the Baroque period called "hocket" according to the liner notes. It's a very interesting choice because it almost sounds like an exaggerated version of Donovan's own style. There are not a lot of slick production techniques or effects used on this CD, but there are very creative a cappella arrangements of some pop classics.
