This single CD has all of violinist Eddie South's radio transcriptions for Standard plus three selections taken from appearances on the Jubilee radio series. South was one of the top jazz violinists, being more classical-oriented than most of his contemporaries. He could always swing, as he shows on this series of trio/quartet performances with pianist Billy Taylor (in one of his earlier sessions), bassist LaGrand Mason, and sometimes drummer Connie Jordan; Taylor and bassist Eddie Brown are on the Jubilee shows with South. The music is essentially swing standards (such as "Idaho," "Deep Purple," and "Rose Room") along with two versions of "Rhapsody in Blue" and some of the gypsy melodies (such as "Tzigani in Rhythm," "Marcheta," and "Hejre Kati") that South always loved. A fine all-round set of music from the greatly underrated jazz violinist. ~ Scott Yanow
