WETF Show - Sam Donahue's Band of the US Navy Liberation Forces 1945
Manage episode 442995285 series 2912517
Practically forgotten but possibly the best US service band in WWII, it was initially led by Artie Shaw in the Pacific Theatre, but when Shaw went home it was taken over by tenor saxophonist Donahue and brought to England for the last few months of the war. These recordings feature this crack unit on VDisc, AFRS transcriptions and a Jubilee broadcast with superb work by the leader, Ralph La Polla on clarinet, John Best on trumpet, Tak Takvorian on trombone and Rocky Collucio on piano.
