LARRY ADLER
THE VIRTUOSO OF THE MOUTH-ORGAN |  |
Description:
Lawrence Cecil Adler is one of the most renowned and respected harmonica players of all time. After teaching himself the instrument, he began to play in front of audiences by the age of 14. But instead of establishing himself stateside, Adler was forced to relocate to England in 1949 after he was accused of pro communist sympathies during the McCarthy era. On this 25 track compilation of music from 1934 45, he plays jazz classics as well as film and show tunes with John Kirby's Orchestra, Quintet of the Hot Club of France, and with an orchestra directed by George Stoll. |
