Our Take

BENNIE MOTEN The Bennie Moten Collection 1923-1932

Prepare to be transported back in time with this delightful collection of jazz tunes from the one and only Bennie Moten. With a career spanning almost a decade, Moten and his band bring us a taste of the roaring twenties and thirties that will have you tapping your feet and swinging along in no time.

From the lively brass sections to the infectious rhythms, each track on this album exudes a sense of joy and nostalgia that is hard to resist. The innovative arrangements and bold improvisations show off Moten's skill as a bandleader and his ability to push the boundaries of traditional jazz.

Standout tracks like "South", "Moten Stomp", and "Band Box Shuffle" showcase the versatility and talent of the ensemble, while slower ballads like "Lafayette" and "Get Goin'" provide moments of reflection and tenderness.

Overall, The Bennie Moten Collection 1923-1932 is a must-have for any jazz enthusiast looking to expand their collection. With its blend of old-school charm and timeless appeal, this album is sure to have you reaching for your dancing shoes and dreaming of a bygone era. So go ahead, give it a spin and let the music of Bennie Moten sweep you off your feet.
