New BluesTone Recuts & Earl Hines
By Rob DeLand

I have recently completed a list of new BluesTone 88-note ragtime
and blues recuts.  If anyone is interested, please drop me an email
and I'll send you details or mail you a print copy.  Thank you for
allowing me this opportunity for shameless self-promotion!

I have also put together a brief homage to one of my favorite early
jazz pianists, Earl Hines.  Look in my BluesTone "links" page, which
includes a list of his early solo piano recordings, his four QRS
"Celebrity Series" rolls made in the 1970's, and images of Hines from
my collection.  I hope this is of interest to someone, and that you'll
take a listen to those recordings.

Hines was an incredible talent.  It's too bad he didn't make rolls
back in the 1920's.  I guess he was already running with a fast crowd
by then.

Regards,
