Jazz music is always developing. Jazz musicians are developing also, some as a result of changing fads and others by osmosis from the other musicians around them. It was this osmosis. This website is designed to be searched. You can search for all Jazz Musicians by name and see which albums they have performed on and the other jazz musicians that they have worked with.

Dinah, LST Party, My Melancholy Baby & C-Jam Blues were recorded early 1945 in New York. Remaining tracks were recorded later the same year in Hollywood. Paradise saxophone chorus, originally written for 4 saxes in the Fletcher Henderson band, was raised in key to accomodate 6 saxes by Sam Donahue. Dear Al was so named by reason of Sam often being mistakenly thought Al Donahue's brother.
