[78-L] Roy Eldridge 100

[Taylor Bowie]

One of my fave Eldridge records which sort of slips through the cracks for a 
lot of collectors is his Vocalion from 1937 of Where The Lazy River Goes 
By...powerful,  startling and sort of low-key,  all at the same time.

And on the Henderson Victor of Moonrise on the Lowlands...when he comes in 
for his solo on that amazing high note...that's a fine example of flash 
which is still really musical!

Taylor
