Remaking All That Jazz From Shanghai's Lost Era Posted: 28 Jan 2014 01:00 PM PST Many Shanghai jazz standards of the 1930s and '40s were banned in China after the Chinese Communist Party took over. But they reemerged decades later through cover versions. Now, the songs are back again in a new cover album by a Chinese-American electronic artist and a jazz singer from Shanghai.
