 Review
Thelma Carpenter was a competent vocalist somewhere between Ethel Waters and Ivie Anderson. She delivers attractive renditions of Duke Ellington's "Just A-Sittin and A-Rockin'" and of "Hurry Home", although I think they would have been more attractive with a better engineer on hand. Some of her softer moments are swallowed up on this recording. The Ellington side is the better of the two, thanks largely to the suitable and well-executed accompaniment by Earl Sheldon's orchestra. The Deep River Boys and Bud Freeman AHO are virtual non-factors on "Hurry Home". The Deep River Boys provide a few organ-chords behind Thelma and then largely disappear. Their space would have been better allotted to wider and more imaginative use of the Freeman orchestra. Freeman provides a single microscopic sax solo but fails to leave an impression. Even a sax great like Freeman can't be expected to do much rhythmically or melodically in three or four notes.
