Hello. I have run across a album set , 78's, four set of Columbia Presents drummin' with krupa ... set A-36. There is no date that I can see?, but looks extreemly old, my grandmother owned it. The songs on the collection are ;
Let Me Off Uptown
Rockin' Chair
Drimmin' Man
No Name Jive
Drummer Boy
Drum Boogie
Apurksody
After You've Gone
I have searched the internet and can find no info on this? Any sugestions?
Thanks Trevor

That's a very cool find. I have most of those titles on two discs (Gene Krupa - "Best of Big Bands"; Gene Krupa - "Drummer Man"). The latter is stuff from the 50's, the previous one includes stuff from the 40's. Great material (to me). While it's very cool to find those 78's, you'll be even more lucky to find a spinner to play them on. Enjoy yourself with some Gene!
Glen Gray's version of No Name Jive is one of my all time favorite numbers. I play along with it frequently. The Krupa version is great too - [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fak5M01NizI[/ame]
Several of the albums listed here (http://www.drummerman.net/disc.html) contain many of the songs in the set you have, but not all. I did not find any with No Name Jive.

"No Name Jive" is included on the Best of Big Bands, Gene Krupa, Drum Boogie CD (Columbia/Legacy # CK 53425). All songs on this particular CD are from '40 & '41. CD has 16 tracks and a nice lil' booklet. Available on Amazon.
