DESCRIPTION
American jazz singer and songwriter Herb Jeffries began his recording career with legendary pianist Earl Hines' orchestra in 1934 and went on to record with Duke Ellington from 1940 to 1942. Jeffries' most famous song, "Flamingo," recorded in 1940 with Ellington, sold over 50 million copies. Jeffries is also noted for being the first black man to star in an American western, known to his legions of fans as "The Bronze Buckaroo." He also worked closely with the eccentric songwriter Eden Ahbez, author of the #1 jazz classic hit "Nature Boy," and, in 1954, the pair collaborated on the album presented here, the Singing Prophet, which included the only recording of Ahbez's four-part "Nature Boy Suite." Finally available in the digital domain, this rare classic has been newly remastered.
