(Dixieland) Alvin Alcorn - Sounds of New Orleans Vol. 5 - 1990 (Storyville), FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

New Orleans jazz is exhibitionistic by nature, and one might say that trumpeter Alvin Alcorn takes full advantage of that attribute, but he does so without overstepping the bounds of good taste. Born in New Orleans, September 7, 1912, Alcorn learned the rudiments of music theory from his brother Oliver, a reed player, before adopting the trumpet as his instrument.
In the late Twenties, Alcorn began working professionally, fronting his own band and performing with a variety of others, including two led by violinist Clarence Des-dune and composer Armand Pi-ron, respectively. In 1932, he left New Orleans for five years during
which he toured extensively throughout the United States and into neighboring Mexico and Canada with Don Albert's band. A fairly large organization, the Don Albert Orchestra did not play New Orleans music, per se, but it counted among its regular members such noted New Orleans players as Louis Cottrell and Herb Hall.
When he returned to New Orleans, Alcorn again worked with Piron and with the bands of Paul Barbarin and fellow trumpeter Sidney Desvignes until the early Forties, when a somewhat different job was offered to him by the U.S. Army. After his discharge from the Service, Alcorn worked briefly with Tab Smith's orchestra, then
returned home only to find that musicians were in greater supply than musical jobs. The immediate solution was to work as a house decorator, but Alcorn kept his horn handy, using it to moonlight with as often as possible.
During the Fifties, Alcorn became increasingly active on the music scene. He performed in New Orleans with such legendary local players as Oscar "Papa" Celestin and Alphonse Picou, toured and made records with the new darling of New Orleans jazz, George Lewis, stomped to California with Octave Crosby, and worked with hometown superstar Kid Ory. In Hollywood, Alcorn even made a movie, appearing with Ory's band in the perfectly awful attempt to capture the life of Benny Goodman on film. Alvin Alcorn has worked steadily ever since, most
recently leading a small group in the Crescent City.
Alcorn made his recording debut in 1936, with Don Albert's band - eight Vocalion sides recorded in San Antonio, Texas - but it was not until the New Orleans Revival sparked renewed interest in his hoihetown's music that he was heard to real advantage on discs. Today, his work can be heard on a plethora of albums by musicians ranging from Kid Ory and George Lewis to Raymond Burke and Jack Delaney. The latter two, it so happens, also appear with Alcorn on this album, a compilation of three informal eariy Fifties sessions that are bound to win new followers for Alcorn as well as New Orleans music.
