Bix Beiderbecke Day‏


 
The story of Bix Beiderbecke 
has become the stuff of legend; 
casting Bix as the misunderstood 
musical genius plagued by the 
demons of alcoholism.
 
But long before his darkest days 
the young cornetist would attended 
a landmark recording session in 
January of 1925.
 
Joined by friends from the Jean 
Goldkette Orchestra, he composed 
his famous "Davenport Blues" on 
the spot. 
 
This record captures the magic of 
that first improvised performance  
for the ages.
 
Happy Birthday Bix.
