Whether it's barrelhouse, ragtime, syncopation, scat, swing, bebop, hard-hop, boogie-woogie or jive, it's all great Jazz! This fascinating and highly entertaining DVD brings together some of the best performances by the greatest artists from the 1930s and 1940s, including Cab Calloway singing "Smokey Joe," Duke Ellington performing "Stormy Weather," a very young and thin Louis Prima singing "China Town," Louis Armstrong acting "That's Why They Call Me Shine," and Peggy Lee rolling a bouncy rendition of "It's a Good Day." Culminates with an eye popping performance by Sammy Davis Jnr. With many acts staged especially for the camera, this is a Jazz Ball Era treat for both the ears and eyes.
