Muggsy Spanier • Chicago Jazz

 



Description from The Syncopated Times:
Cornetist Muggsy Spanier was one of the most consistent of all jazz musicians. While sometimes called "Chicago style," in reality he was a masterful and always-enthusiastic Dixieland player. His solos were mostly predictable, but it did not matter because he played with such power, authority, and sincerity that he uplifted every ensemble in which he took part. His playing never became tired or uninspired.

Descripción de The Syncopated Times:
El cornetista Muggsy Spanier fue uno de los músicos de jazz más consistentes de todos. Si bien a veces se lo llamó "estilo Chicago", en realidad fue un magistral y siempre entusiasta músico de Dixieland. Sus solos eran en su mayoría predecibles, pero no importaba porque tocaba con tal poder, autoridad y sinceridad que elevaba cada conjunto en el que participaba. Su interpretación nunca se volvió cansada o sin inspiración.
