 Notes  
     The first drummer to be a superstar, Gene Krupa may not have been
     the most advanced drummer of the 1930s but he was in some ways the
     most significant. Prior to Krupa, drum solos were a real rarity and
     the drums were thought of as a merely supportive instrument. With
     his good looks and colorful playing, he became a matinee idol and
     changed the image of drummers forever.
     This 20-song collection, evidently made up of radio airchecks that
     are effectively out of copyright overseas, makes a good companion to
     Sony's Gene Krupa hits and Anita O'Day/Roy Eldridge collections. It
     doesn't have "Let Me Off Uptown", but it does include O'Day's
     extraordinary "Boogie Blues", "Bolero At The Savoy" and
     "Massachusetts" and performances by scat-singing star Leo Watson.
     Further, Roy Eldridge is featured on at least half the cuts here in
     prominent solos, but the producers have also included tracks by the
     later Krupa line-ups, which included Charlie Ventura and Gerry
     Mulligan, working in leaner, more modern jazz surroundings. The
     sound quality is above average for the period, with minimal
     distortion and a clean, close sound. The drums, of course, are
     prominent (nowhere more so than on 'Wire Brush Stomp'), but the
     solos by Eldridge and the other featured members of Krupa's various
     bands also come out loud and richly textured.
     Of the music itself, there's only one really weak link here, Krupa's
     much-too-fast treatment of the Richard Rodgers/Lorenz Hart waltz
     "Lover", and it is more than made up for by the presence of O'Day's
     singing on "That's What You Think".
