Blues Bag
Symbolic image – for the detailed description and condition, please read the Item Details below.
Buddy DeFranco was the greatest jazz clarinetist of the post-Benny Goodman era, a virtuoso who brought real sophistication to an instrument that had become less common in modern jazz. On Blues Bag, you get the full picture of what DeFranco could do—fast, intricate passages that never feel academic, bluesy phrases that have genuine soul, and a tone that cuts clearly through any setting. The hard bop context suits him perfectly, with blues-based changes and soulful rhythms providing the structure for his explorations. What strikes you listening to DeFranco is that he never sounds detached or intellectual—everything swings, everything communicates. If you've wondered what happened to the clarinet in jazz, this is the answer.
