Thanks for the suggestion!
I did check archive.org .
I did find a couple of studio recording singles (78 rpm, 3 min each) of two of the popular Minton's artists of that era, performing their own "homages" to the stuff going on at Minton's at that time, below. . . Talk about whetting one's...
Hi all, hope everyone's well.
Couple questions:
1. Can anyone recommend any focused web forums for 1940s bebop ("modern") jazz?
The forum doesn't have to be ONLY about that, but, if you know of some forum where they frequently discuss 1940s bebop jazz in some considerable depth & expertise...

Vitanola & Lizzie, sorry to hear those stories...
I've always been frustrated by RCA/BMG/Sony/Woever-the-heck-owns-them-now refusal to ever issue a "complete Tommy Dorsey on RCA Victor" set of reissues. They started in the 1970s with 2-LP sets which I think went to the early 80s before they...

I've just ordered a course on beginning learning German, and am interested in learning more about the vintage scene there after learning the language. What's the forum?
Unfortunately, I've since read that many of that artistic output, including fashion shows and seemingly-appealing photos of well-dressed Parisians walking about the streets during WWII, were actually part of the a propaganda machine to make it APPEAR that "everything was OK" and it was...
