About this product
Borrow, remix, interpret, experiment and create their own version of various styles and origins that is the hallmark of Chico's Jugband. The band was formed in 1985 in Stockholm - and was probably the only jugband of it's kind in Sweden until the tour end in 2001 - a band that always took advantage of the great freedom in the jugband tradition. The designation Jugband began to appear in the U.S. a few years after 1900 and the music had it's heyday in the interwar period 1920-1940. It was called InchThe New CrazeInch and was primarily dance and light music with artists such as Gus Cannon's Jug Stompers and the Memphis Jug Band - important role models for Chico's Jugband. But what is jugband music? Does it belong to any particular category and is it possible to place in any of the usual music genres? Is it the blues, or any kind of traditional jazz and are there hints of ragtime? And of course you can hear some of the elements of old-time country music, right?

The Memphis Jug Band are generally primarily associated with the blues, but in truth they were a more broad-based musical agglomeration, whose music was designed to be danceable, humorous and out-and out entertaining. Their line-up varied across the years, but the essential jug band sound and instrumentation of guitar, jug, kazoo, harmonica, and occasional banjo, mandolin, washboard and woodblocks, remained at the core of their sound, which has provided a template for skiffle groups and modern jug bands ever since, with many of their songs also still being performed by such bands. This great-value 72-track 3-CD set comprises most of their recordings for Victor and Okeh during this era, including recordings as The Memphis Sheikhs and The Carolina Peanut Boys. It features some of those jug band classics which have passed into later bands' repertoires, including InchHe's In The Jailhouse NowInch, InchMove That ThingInch, InchOn The Road AgainInch, and InchBottle It Up And GoInch. It's a comprehensive overview of their career, and a highly entertaining showcase for their rough-edged but finely-honed skill as entertainers.
