The Jack Teagarden Collection
Jeepers Creepers
by
Jack Teagarden was a celebrated jazz trombonist and singer, known for his warm, relaxed vocal style and fluid, blues-inflected playing. This collection is associated with Teagarden and the song “Jeepers Creepers,” a lively jazz standard that became one of his signature performances.
Teagarden’s music brings together swinging ensemble playing and an easygoing, expressive delivery. His trombone lines have a conversational quality, while his singing gives the performance a personable, unhurried feel. The result is a welcoming listen for fans of classic jazz and big-band-era sounds.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
