Dud Bascomb - Tuxedo Junction album flac

Other than a few titles for obscure labels in the mid-1940s, this LP has the only sessions that trumpeter Dud Bascomb ever led. Ironically, of the 15 titles (from three dates during 1959-60), only three were released previously (as singles), so this project did not do much to help Bascomb's career. Bascomb will always be best-known for his many fine solos with Erskine Hawkins' Orchestra during 1934-44.

Dud Bascomb occupies an unusual place in jazz history. Because he was one of the two trumpet soloists with the Erskine Hawkins Orchestra, and the other was the leader, Bascomb's solos (some of which were quite famous) were often thought at the time as being by Hawkins. The youngest of ten children, the younger brother of tenor saxophonist Paul Bascomb, and the future father of bassist Dud Bascomb, J. Dud started off on piano but soon switched to trumpet. In 1947 he spent a few months with Duke Ellington's Orchestra but unfortunately was rarely featured. In addition, he headed a single album for Savoy that was recorded during 1959-1960 but most of it wasn't released (despite its quality) until 1986.
