Newton,Frank Story Of A Forgotten Jazz Trumpeter CD

Sadly, even many jazz aficionados don't know Frank's story due to his chronic ill health and early death at age 48. But the company he kept proves that he won much respect from his peers; this 50-track, 2-CD set features his own groups plus Frank with Billie Holiday (Strange Fruit); Bessie Smith (Take Me for a Buggy Ride); Maxine Sullivan (Blue Skies); Willie "The Lion" Smith, Sidney Bechet and more!
