one of the great mysteries of music is how playing with this much joy, this much life, this much truth, can come from a man so deeply- suicidally, really- troubled. Bix's playing on this song is audible poetry- just phenomenal.

This is my favorite Bix tune as well. Both for Bix, AND Adrian Rollini's playing on that Oct 5th, 1927 NY recording.

I agree with with arkjazz...this simply is one of the best Bix recordings. So much fire and passion in his attack. I never tire of listening to him. A perfect example of his unique bag of tricks ...1:54 to 2:06

I suppose that listening to 'Sorry' was as close to the truth as when Eddie Condon stated that listening to Bix was like hearing a girl say yes. My Uncle, who played with Paul Whiteman, introduced me to Bix when I was 15 and it was the beginning of a life long romance with his music. Hopefully, some place, Bix and Louis are playing together.

One of the classic Bix performances. He simply 'carries' the piece with his beautiful tone and subtle, abundant invention and innovation. It's hard to believe he was self-taught on cornet (but he was) and all of 24 when this was recorded. And it still sounds fresh and alive and forward thinking when so much of that era--including much of the contexts within which he played--sounds so dated. Bix was a rare, sad genius and there's not much of him out there, but I'm grateful for what we've got. |
