"One bandleader who seems to go on and on is Tiny Bradshaw, who was resident at the Savoy in Harlem for many years after the mid thirties. Tiny still has a jumping big-little band of about twelve men who blow their brains out and bawl very risqué lyrics with immense gusto. He is a firm favourite and it's easy to understand why - his discs have all the ingredients for a successful race record of today - broad humour, powerful brass, a honking tenor and that rocking, rolling beat which only a coloured band can generate, and which hasn't changed much during the years except to get a bit more frantic."When the above paragraph appeared in the October 1952 issue of Jazz Journal magazine (a British publication from 1952 mentioning "rocking" and "rolling"!), the article's subject, Tiny Bradshaw, had been a showbiz veteran for nearly thirty years and had been fronting his own band for almost two decades of those.
