Présentation

L'irrépressible frétillement du swing, venu des Etats-Unis à la fin des années 30, a été pour l'Europe un parfait antidote aux difficultés de tous les jours. Dès avant la guerre - et jusque dans les années 50 - les grands orchestres Swing européens ont triomphé : sur disque, à la radio et dans les dancings.
Patrick Frémeaux & Pierre Carlu

Presse
This may not be a truly representative survey of big band swing in Europe but it is certainly an entertaining and thought-provoking collection. The compilers admit in the accompanying booklet that they were dependant on finding good quality (musically and sonically) 78s which ruled out, for example, Finland, Hungary and Austria where there were active swing bands but minimal recording. Otherwise, all the major European countries, including some Eastern European ones, are covered with an understandable emphasis on Belgium, England, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden and France (over three-quarters of the contents). Most of the music is derivative of American models and it can be fun to make the links. After the early flirtation with Paul Witheman (Jack Hylton’s 1933 opening track is typical), Benny Goodman was the dominant influence throughout Europe, until Count Basie began to make his mark (particularly in France and Sweden) from the end of WWII. There is little to be heard of Duke Ellington in this set, the main exception being the 1938 German recording of Meditation by Teddy Stauffer’s “Original Teddies”. The Eastern European tracks (from Czechoslovakia, USSR and Poland) reveal the greatest time lag in keeping pace with stylistic developments, presumably due to restricted access to US records. They play a curious hybrid of early swing and local, ethnic dance music. The Polish Charles Bovery Jazz Orchestra, as late as 1947, looked back to 1920s Whiteman. Generally, however, the later recordings on CD 2 show greater diversity and originality with Kurt Edelhagen in Germany, Ted Heath and Vic Lewis in England starting to match US standards. The level of ensemble playing is remarkably high throughout with only a few exceptions. The major letdown is the relatively poor quality of soloing (copy-cat, over-excited and worse) until the later years when some competent individuals emerge. The old bugbear of inferior European rhythm sections is evident. The French and Swedish bands suffer least in this regard. I know there are collectors who specialise in this sort if material. They should discover several tempting rarities here. For others, the album makes a useful gap filler to a more general jazz collection. Like all Frémeaux sets, the 48 page booklet (in French and English) with an excellent survey of the European swing era, full discographical information and interesting band photographs, is outstanding.Bob WEIR – JAZZ JOURNAL

« Cette compilation dresse un panorama des grands orchestres européens qui représentèrent, de 1933 à 1952, la musique de la "Swing Era" telle qu’elle était dispensée aux Etats-Unis par les big bands blancs (Tommy Dorsey, Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw) » Alain THOMAS – JAZZ MAN

Letter to Frémeaux & Associés, by M. Leon J. Kellerman.  "Dear M. Frémeaux.  Over the past few years I have purchased many Frémeaux & Associés recordings. They comprise a large part of my collection of world music. Not only am I delighted by the sound but the booklets that are included are both informative and readable.  I should have written sooner to express my appreciation for all you have done to preserve and present to the public the great sounds of the past but being naturally lazy, I did not do so until now. My latest purchase arrived today from your present U.S. outlet : Worlds Records, Novato, California. Il is “Swing in Europe. Big Bands 1933-1952”. After listening to CD1 I was compelled, at last to write this letter to tell you that it is the best compilation of European swing that I have ever heard and I enjoyed every swinging moment!  Let me add my praise to the many others you have been given for all of your productions. Please continue to make such work available to all of us who appreciate your efforts."  Leon J. KELLERMAN
