Delve into the Dutch jazz scene of the 1950s and 1960s with a selection of classic and rare hard bop and cool jazz tracks from artists like Herman Schoonderwalt, the Diamond Five, Wessel Ilcken and Tony Vos. Holland never sounded this hip before! “Jazz is garbage and a caricature of the modern orchestra; it is garbage arranged by half-grown musicians for the benefit of common entertainment.” In spite of the Dutch cultural establishment’s attempts to preclude jazz - as illustrated by this citation from the October 1926 issue of music magazine De Muziek - The Netherlands was one of the earliest adopters of the new music style as it came over to the Old Continent at the end of World War I and this compilation proves it like no other. Compiled by Lander Lenaerts and Stephan Raab. Produced by Stefaan 'Sdban' Vandenberghe. https://sdbanrecords.bandcamp.com/album/hip-holland-hip-modern-jazz-in-the-netherlands-1950-1970 This mix was broadcast on www.nessradio.com
