THE TOUR
This was a concert tour in Australia celebrating 50 years of swing. The term "swing" typically refers to a style of jazz music that was particularly popular from the 1930s to the 1940s. Swing music is known for its rhythmic and infectious melodies and was a significant cultural movement in the United States during the mid-20th century.
Some of the performers were Billy May (trumpet), Zeke Zarchy (trumpet), Si Zentner (trombone), Abe Most (reeds), Willie Schwartz (reeds), Al Lerner (piano), Red Callender (bass) and Alvin Stoller (drums).
Also performing were Martha Tilton, Art Lund, Ella Mae Morse and Herb Jeffries.
A concert featuring all of these artists would lhave presented a diverse and captivating repertoire of music, covering various jazz sub-genres, swing, and popular music from different eras. The audience would have been treated to a mix of instrumental and vocal performances, with each artist bringing their unique style and expertise to the stage. The concert would have been an opportunity to witness living legends and experience the magic of live music. It's a shame that such a concert featuring all these artists together is not common knowledge, but it's a testament to the rich history of music and the incredible talents that have graced the stage over the years.
COLLECTABILITY
Tour programs are highly collectable and sought after for several reasons. Firstly, they provide a tangible memento of a specific concert or event, allowing fans to relive the experience and cherish the memories associated with it. Tour programs often feature exclusive content like behind-the-scenes photos, interviews, and detailed information about the artists and their performances. Additionally, they serve as a snapshot of a particular era in an artist's career, making them valuable to both music enthusiasts and historians. Whether you're a dedicated fan or a passionate collector, owning these programs offers a tangible connection to the music world and serves as a treasured piece of memorabilia.
Programs can also be framed together with other items we have on our website such as vinyl records, official stage guitar picks, autographs, backstage passes, concert tickets, drumsticks and photos and you can create a truly one-of-a-kind unique piece of memorabilia.
