It's the Roaring Twenties, and New York is aflame with jazz fever. Crowds flock to the nightclubs and dance halls in Harlem to see the likes of Louis Armstrong with the Fletcher Henderson Orchestra playing at the Kentucky Club, or Duke Ellington at the Roseland Ballroom or the world-famous Cotton Club.

The texts, contributed by Hans-J???rgen Schaal, give a vivid account of the club scene and the "band battles," as well as the legendary recording sessions.
