Release Notes:

26 Original mono recordings 1921-1947
Isham Jones led and broke up several bands during
the 1920s and '30s, but his greatest legacy is as a
songwriter, having composed "It Had to Be You," "On
the Alamo," "I'll See You in My Dreams," "The One I
Love Belongs to Somebody Else," and "There Is No
Greater Love," among others. Although he was
originally a saxophonist and pianist, Isham Jones
did not take any real solos with his bands. In the
early '20s, his outfit featured trumpeter Louis
Panico, a pretty good soloist for 1921. Jones
recorded prolifically during 1920-1927, with most
selections being jazz-oriented dance band
performances. While his 1929-1932 recordings are
more commercial, the musicianship is high and the
melodic renditions are not without interest. Jones'
1932-1936 big band became the nucleus of the first
Woody Herman Orchestra when Isham Jones decided to
temporarily retire. He had another band in 1937 and
recorded as late as 1947, but it is for his songs
that he will always be remembered.
