Nice collection of soundies here, probably 2 artists only you've heard of, Fats Weller and Count Basie, the rest I imagine you might have heard of if you were super versed in jazz. My favorites were the Delta Rhythym Boys spot in the beginning, Rocco Blues with the amazing Maurice Rocco, and the Fats Weller tune. Nice that these soundies seem to be made for black audiences, and not, you know, made for the white audiences (you know what I mean). Reccomended!
