Original Indiana Five - Harmony 217 (1926)

Still on the lookout for a clean copy of the Original Indiana Five on Harmony 58.

From The Red Hot Jazz Archive…

The Original Indiana Five were not from Indiana. Their name was an apparent attempt to sound like other bands of the day that had names like the Original Memphis Five and the Original New Orleans Jazz Band. The band played mainly in New York City and were broadcast on the radio. They were active from sometime in the late Teens or early 1920s to 1929. They also recorded under the name of John Sylvester and his Orchestra. The group got back together in 1948 and played in New York until sometime in the early 1950s.

Jimmie Noone's Apex Club Orchestra - Vocalion 1531 (1930)

Excerpted from wikipedia…

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.

Jimmie Noone cl, dir / Eddie Pollack cl, as / Zinky Cohn p / Wilbur Gorham bj, g / Bill Newton bb / Johnny Wells d / unkown v.

Recorded in Chicago on August 23, 1930.

The Charleston Chasers - Columbia 909 (1927)

From wikipedia…

The Charleston Chasers was a name used between 1925 and 1930 for a series of recording groups that did not exist outside of the studios. Nobody ever heard this group perform in front of the public, although each of the players had plenty of bandstand experience. The Charleston Chasers existed only as a studio recording ensemble for Columbia Records.

Red Nichols t, dir / Miff Mole tb / Jimmy Dorsey as, cl / Arthur Schutt p / Dick McDonough bj, g / Vic Berton d.

Recorded February 25, 1927.

Jack Stillman's Oriole Orchestra / Glantz & His Orchestra - Puritan 11424 (1925)

Not much info on these and I do believe that Irving Post might be an alias for Franklyn Baur.
