These pages give some very interesting background information on each of the songs and songwriters featured on my CD American Standard Blue. The information comes from Wikipedia, Jazz Standards.com and artist websites. This is intended to enhance the listening experience. Together these songs and their backgound information paint a compelling picture of the history of American poular and jazz music in the 20th century. Most of the information presented here only scratches the surface of the stories behind the songs and songwriters. Read and enjoy! |
