Bunny Berigan(1908-1942)は黒人Louis Armstrong(1901-1971)と白人Bix Beiderbeck(1903-1931)の対立するスタイルを巧みに融合し、1930年代において最も影響力の大きかった白人トランぺッターです。Hal Kemp, Paul Whiteman, Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey楽団を渡り歩き、1937年頃からは自分のBig Bandを率いますが、その頃から酒に溺れ、肝硬変のためわずか33歳で世を去ります。このCDは1935年から1939年までの名演を集めたものです。
BeriganのスタイルはHotな中にBixの面影を感じさせる独特のものです。最大の後継者はHarry Jamesかも知れませんが、Jamesに比ても、Bix派といわれるBobby Hacketに比べてもBixの香りをずっと強く感じます。
I Can't Get Startedは畢生の名演と言われて、後年まで多くのトランぺッターがなぞりました。

12 Let's Do It (Porter)
軽快な演奏です。Beriganが颯爽と登上すると雰囲気ががらりと変わります。
13 Honeysuckle Rose (Waller-Razaf)
14 Blues (trad.)
15 Frankie and Johnnie(trad)
16 Mahigany Hall Stomp (Williams)
Luois Armstrongの得意曲ですが、Bixの風味を感じるBeriganのソロが聞かれます。
17 I Can't Get Started (Gershwin-Duke)
18 I Cried For You
19 Jerry Roll Blues (Morton)
20 Davenport Blues (Beiderbeck)
先輩Bixのレパートリーですが、Gus Bivona(as,cl)が活躍します。若いBuddy Richが張り切っています。
21 Blue Lou (Sampson-Mills)
22 Night Song (Tizol-Mundy)
1939年のBandはメンバーが極端に弱体化しています。有名Musicianはほとんど居なくなってしまいました。酒飲みのBunnyについていけなくなったのかギャラをケチったのか、メンバーは後年有名になる若手メというわけでもありません。この弱体ぶりは1942年まで続きます。
