Jimmie Noone is generally regarded as one of the greatest of
the second generation of jazz clarinetists, along with Johnny Dodds and Sidney
Bechet. Noone's playing is not as blues-tinged as Dodds nor as flamboyant as
Bechet, but is perhaps more lyrical and sophisticated, and certainly makes more
use of "sweet" flavoring. Noone was an important influence on later
clarinetists such as Artie Shaw, Irving Fazola and Benny Goodman.
These two sides clearly reflect the above statement.
