Volume three of the Kern songbook series concentrates on instrumental versions of 16 of the revered composer's songs; and again, the Verve, MGM, and Mercury archives prove to be a nearly inexhaustible resource. Annotator Dan Morgenstern claims that due to their harmonic sophistication, Kern's songs did not become ripe vehicles for jazz improvisation until shortly after his death in 1945 when the beboppers were in full cry. After that, the deluge began, and boppers of several stripes dominate this collection.
