Some hot jazz from the Netherlands
In 1928 ‘Come On, Baby” was recorded by Austin Wylie’s Coronado Hotel Orchestra, Ted Weems, Fred “Sugar” Hall’s Sugar Babies and Ernie Golden’s band.
The song caught on with British bands, several of whom recorded it in 1929, but then became largely extinct, not being recorded again until a Dixieland group with trumpeter Teddy Buckner briefly revived it in 1951.
However it is Fletcher Henderson’s 1928 version, featuring a rare vocal by Benny Carter (who also arranged the piece), that is best known.
The Hot Jazz Ambassadors, a four-horn four-rhythm group from the Netherlands, performs their own fine version “Come On, Baby” in recent times while using an arrangement similar to Carter's.
