Record and Artist Details

Label:

Acrobat

September/2019

Sometimes more celebrated for his left-wing politics than his fine playing, this 3CD shows why Newton was so highly regarded as a trumpeter, not only with his own Uptown Serenaders and the 1938 band assembled by Hugues Panassié, but with a host of others from Cecil Scott to Mary Lou Williams.
