Smith Ballew #1 Recorded 1928 - 1929 CD206a

Our Price: $16.99

 

Smith Ballew's real name was Sykes Ballew. Born in 1902 in Palestine, Texas, he went to college at Austin College and the University of Texas. In his twenties, he was singing on the radio and had started his recording career - the earlist I have of him is the Meyer Davis Orchestra from 1928. He was quite prolific and had a recording career on Brunswick, Columbia, Velvet Tone and Harmony (Columbia's budget labels) Victor, and the ARC family of labels in the early thirties. He seems to have been a magnet for talent - frequently the sidemen heard with him are the likes of Mickey Bloom, Jack Purvis, Manny Klein, Jack Teagarden, Pete Pumiglio,Babe Russin,Bruce Yantis,Bobby Van Eps,Carl Kress, Dick McDonough, Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey, Ward Lay,Stan King and many more. Ted Wallace and His Campus Boys were frequent collaborators in the late twenties and they produced many fine records. Sam Lanin and Harry Reser also featured him on vocals. Some of the records of his own band were labeled 'Jack Blue and His Texans' and 'Buddy Blue' These tracks were transferred with a special digital hi-definition process for smoother, clearer sound. ~ Mickey Clark
