One has to invest in a few discs to track down most of Chu Berry's
recordings as a leader. And while some of his best sides are available
from Commodore, there are still many cuts from throughout his career
that have been hard to come by. Now, Classics has collected a good chunk
of the tenor luminary's solo sides on this welcome collection -- in
lieu of a badly needed and thorough retrospective that should include
both solo material and tracks from Berry's numerous dates with Cab
Calloway, Fletcher Henderson, Lionel Hampton, Billie Holiday, Dizzy
Gillespie, and scores of other bandleaders and vocalists, this remains
the best roundup available. Bookended by a 1937 session with his Stompy
Stevedores and four 1941 sides featuring Charlie Ventura (including two
alternate takes), this disc's main attraction has to be the eight
numbers from Berry's respective 1938 and 1941 sessions with Roy Eldridge
and Hot Lips Page. A solid collection that's perfect for newcomers. Now
all we need is for the Smithsonian's music arm to resurrect its
invaluable, multi-label reissue series, so Berry can finally get his
due. Stephen Cook
