Tommy Ladnier had already been playing for 10 years before recording the first number of this CD, and his talents had made him a much sought after musician by a variety of bands and artists.
On these Tommy Ladnier has moved on from his New Orleans roots, and for me, the numbers are restrictively disciplined and too much overwhelmed by saxophones, though others may welcome this as a shift towards the swing bands of the next decade.
Tommy Ladnier dominates a magnificant version of "Royal Garden Blues", though true to New Orleans origins he allows space for the clarinet of Mezz Mezzrow.

 Tommy Ladnier - Biography - AOL Music
An exciting trumpeter who can be seen as a bridge style-wise between King Oliver and Louis Armstrong, Tommy Ladnier played early in life in New Orleans and in 1917, moved to Chicago.
Ladnier teamed up with Sidney Bechet on a memorable recording session as the New Orleans Feetwarmers (1932) but work was slow and the duo ran a tailor shop (1933-1934) that was more notable for its jam sessions than for its alterations.
Ladnier largely dropped out of sight for a few years, leading groups in New Jersey and Connecticut, but was rediscovered in 1938.

Tommy Ladnier was born in Mandeville, Louisiana in 1900, by the time he was 14 he was having Trumpet lessons from Bunk Johnson and at the age of 18, he was in Charlie Creath's Band in St Louis alongside the likes of Zutty Singleton and Pops Foster.
At the age of 13, when I first took an interest in jazz (that was in 1949 by the way), the name of Tommy Ladnier was regularly on the lips of the jazz fans of that time.
Ladnier was back in business in a big way, it was unfortunate therefore that only a year later he died of a heart attack at the age of 39.

As a child Ladnier played trumpet locally, as well as in nearby Mandeville where he was heard by George Lewis and Bunk Johnson.
In the mid-30s, Ladnier led his own small groups in comparative obscurity, but in 1938 he played with Bechet on recording sessions for the French jazz writer Hugues Panassie.
Ladnier's playing style was a simple and direct exposition of the blues and as an accompanist to blues singers, like Ma Rainey and Ida Cox, he displayed considerable empathy.

In 1923, he led one of the classic New Orleans jazz bands, the last significant group to emphasize collective improvisation over solos, but ironically his second cornetist (Louis Armstrong) would soon permanently change jazz.
