 遠く1920年代初めからBig Bandを率いてきた草分け、Fletcher Henderoson (1897-1952) の名演集です。A3,7、B1,2は典型的なNew Orleans伝来のDixie曲ですが、1920年代にもかかわらず、完璧なSwingのConceptionによる編曲が施されて、一聴別の曲に聞こえます。A1,2ではLouis Armstrong (cor)のソロが聞かれます。Hawkins、Bailey, Green, Moton, Harrison, Stark, Srewart, Joe Smith, Redman, Procope等のソロがふんだんに聞けます。1931年のunknownと記されたguiteristはClarence Hollidayの可能性があります。編曲は初期はHenderson自身、後にRedman, Sampson, Russ Morgan, Nat Leslie等のものが用いられています。
