NEW YORK – A newly-discovered recording of an historic concert featuring jazz giants Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane will be broadcast for the first time on Friday, Sept. 9, exclusively on Sirius Satellite Radio. The concert at New York’s Carn- egie Hall on Nov. 29, 1957 featured the Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane, and was recorded by Voice of America for an overseas radio broadcast. The tapes were poorly labeled, stored away and unheard until January 2005, when they were located at the Library of Congress in Wash- ington, D.C. The 51-minute recording of the concert, Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane at Carne- gie Hall, will be released by Blue Note Records in conjunction with Theloni- ous Records on Sept. 27, 2005.

jazzweek.com • Aug. 17, 2005 JazzWeek 10 Industry Q&A: Don Lucoff

hose who have spent more than a minute inside the jazz industry know Don Lucoff either by name or reputation. Head of Tthe Philadelphia-based DL Media, Lucoff’s company repre- sents a wide array of artists and labels, including Blue Note. Radio people perhaps best know him as the pointman/publicist of the annual IAJE conference, although he also works with the Jazz Jour- nalists Association and other groups. JazzWeek caught up with Lucoff recently to see what’s up with the Eagles and to talk about himself instead of his clients for a change. – Tad Hendrickson

JazzWeek: You’ve been in jazz publicity longer than just about anyone. Don Lucoff: Peter Levinson is one of my mentors. He gave me my first break in bringing me to New York, where he’s been at two decades prior to me getting into it – he’s been on his own since the late-’60s or early-’70s. I believe Virginia Wicks is still active, and she’s been around since 52ⁿd Street. She was Dizzy’s publicist back then and is still active. In the current era where jazz labels were reactivated by the major labels, I would say that I’ve been one of the more active publi- cists, covering nearly as much ground as they have, and having worked with all the major jazz labels at one point or another as well as indies. At this point and time, it’s a very different land- Steven Tucker scape.

It’s different as far a publicist goes in 2004. that my business was geared toward handling artists on major labels in the late-’80s and ’90s. That is no longer true. However, I’ve always maintained strong ties to indie labels and the artists themselves. My focus is still with Blue Note Records: Blue Note was the first major to hire me and I’ve been a consultant ever since. This is my 16th year with them. Blue Note really put me on the map as far as an independent consultant. And it was my experience as Nation-

al Director of Publicity at MCA for three years that allowed me to make the seamless leap to become an independent. So that meant you dealt with Impulse!? Yeah. I was around when they reactivated Impulse!, which was the first time the label was activated with the CD format. That was in 1986. That was the time -Mi chael Brecker was signed and made his first albums as a leader. Brecker, Henry Butler and Mike Metheny were the first three artists signed. Ricky Schultz, head of the jazz division, then chose 12 seminal recordings to be reissued. We met with limited success – there were no alternative takes on those early CDs. The packaging wasn’t great and a lot of times the text was small and hard to read. But Ricky was a pioneer at that time. He worked through these minor quibbles to Backstage at Fat Tuesday’s, 1987, for the debut of the Michael Brecker Band to offer the consumer music that had been in celebrate Michael Brecker’s first solo album for the re-launch of Impulse! Records. the archives for a long time and hadn’t seen Michael is joined by Tower jazz buyer Brian Bacchus, fellow horn man Bill Evans the light of day. At that company, that was and Don Lucoff, who at the time was national public relations director for MCA Jazz. really groundbreaking. We were the first division to send CD pro- mos and allotment out the door to radio. Do you think the CD format is going to be around much longer? I don’t think it will happen quickly. It’s hard to say – maybe in the next five to 10 years the shift will occur. It could be the last tactile format. From here on out, it’s electronic distribution. I think the dual disc format is an interesting format to extend what consum- ers are already familiar with. They know CDs and they know DVDs. The dual disc format is a value-added format that is really a very nice touch of marketing. What is your primary objective in working with an artist or label? My major goal has always been to cross them over in a way that doesn’t compromise their message. If Joe Lovano appears in the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times or the New Yorke, it’s not a surprise. There is a natural progres- sion in the arc of his media curve in so far as his career has evolved and devel- oped over the course of 15 years. He’s not a one and done artist. One and done? continued ... jazzweek.com • Aug. 17, 2005 JazzWeek 12 Q&A: Don Lucoff (continued)

There were a number of artists that came and went quickly in the ’90s. They had a very strong media presence, but it wasn’t sustained. Why do you think that is? It’s a combination of different things. Media has a way wanting to be there first and discovering an artist. Once an artist is discovered and written about (if the story is meaningful enough), the tendency is to move on. The human-interest story may be strong enough, but it doesn’t always change as fast as the artistry of the musician. Joe Lovano is relevant and continues to be relevant because he reinvents himself as a musician. If you look at his Blue Note discography over the last 15 years, there are very few instances of repeating himself. There have been a few trio and quartet albums that have been similar, but he continues to push the envelope with a wide array of sidemen and contexts. What comes to mind as far as a major coup in jazz publicity? The job Verve did with Joe Henderson was the most amazing feat of publicity and marketing that I’ve ever seen. I didn’t even work that record. I admire what Verve did in the ’90s, creating concept albums that didn’t compromise the artistry of the musician. It was brilliant. Here was an artist selling 5,000 records and all of the sudden he makes these tribute albums to Strayhorn and Miles and he gets Grammy Awards. Wynton Marsalis was brilliant too, but it’s apples and oranges. Wynton began a whole movement of young lions. The thing with Joe Henderson was that major and independent labels felt comfort- able signing elder statesman. These guys were written about more often because of the success of Joe Henderson, and I can say that because I’ve handled a lot of elder statesmen. What do you look for when a client approaches you? There certainly has to be a fit. Yes. I turn away just as much business as I take on. I’m fortunate enough to be Don Lucoff and Abbey Lincoln in front of in a position where I can do that. So I can be focused and be true to the client the now defunct New York club Condon’s that hired me. I make sure that we agree on what the expectations are. If an for the launch of her album, The World is Falling Down, in 1992. unknown artist puts out his own record and comes to me and says: my goal is to be on the David Letterman Show. I know that it isn’t going to work. I’m not interested in working with the Terrell Owens of jazz. How did you get hooked up with the IAJE? IAJE was a real breakthrough for me. It opened doors to the industry in ways that I had really not experienced before. Not just industry, but also the not-for- profit world. It thoroughly grounded me and connected me to jazz advocacy and the industry. This is my 10th year of working with them. Bill McFarland and I decided after JazzTimes went out of the jazz conference business that it was a major opportunity for us to add an industry track to the conference. Not only did JazzTimes get out, but Gavin was showing less interest in jazz at their

conference as well. Before that time, there was only one industry catchall panel at IAJE that didn’t have any specific focus. So Bill asked me to design some panels, and I sought some advice from people in the industry who were important. I did a lot of consensus building and it went from one to six, then six to a dozen. In ’98 when the conference came to New York for the first time, we were up to 23 panels. We’ve brought in media sponsors – every year we have radio station, this year it’s WBGO and next too. We’ve brought JazzWeek into the mix. This is the second year and we’ve pretty much turned over the whole radio side of the conference over to JazzWeek. Before we picked the panels and the sponsoring radio station did one, but we felt that they were always missing the mark. The panels weren’t really addressing the needs of the radio station personnel. JazzWeek has become more of a facilitator and we’ve gotten a lot of good feedback from the JPL and Syracuse. You actually got your start in radio didn’t you? Yeah. My roots are very deep in radio. I went to San Diego State where I ma- jored in business and minored in com- munication. I was at KCR for three years Lucoff is joined by his wife Maria Clemencia Echeverria and Gonzalo Rubalcaba on and then I moved over to KSDS, which the occasion of the pianist signing to Blue Note Records in 1990. was a 24-hour-a-day commercial jazz station. I took some radio production classes at City College, and then moved back to L.A. after college and took a job at KCRW, where I was on air with a jazz show. Radio is the medium of the imagination. It has a tremendous impact on the careers of artists both in terms of sales and image. Both local shows and syndicated ones. I think Listen Here, the Mark Ruffin and Neil Tesser show, is great. The continued great work of Jim Wilke, and what Bob Parlocha is doing is great: There’s a lot of cause for optimism in radio. One final question. What’s up with Terrell Owens? [Laughs] Terrell Owens feels that he’s misunderstood, and he just wants a fair shake contractually, and doesn’t get along with certain members of the team. He called out Donovan McNabb on ESPN yesterday. I don’t know how he’s going to repair this. There’s no argument that he’s the best in the business and gives 110% on the field, but that’s not the whole story when playing football.

Tierney Sings Live – With Gusto

Tierney Sutton

I’m With The Band (Telarc)

o hear Tierney Sutton sing a song is to hear someone who loves to sing. More than simply tossing the words out there, she throws her- Tself into a song with gusto, stretching phrases, creating unexpected textures and displaying an impeccable sense of time. Then there’s her scat- ting, which highlights the breakneck “Surrey With The Fringe On Top” and “East Of The Sun (And West Of The Moon).” As the title suggests, Sutton is proud of her band, and the musicianship in her singing is per- fectly complimented by a trio (the two bassists who appear here switch off) that gets plenty of leeway from the leader – particularly strong are the duos when she goes head to head with pianist Christian Jacob or drummer Ray Brinker. Recorded live over two days at NYC’s Birdland, the recording is studio q u a l it y and it’s a l m o s t a shock when the Pablo Aguilar applause Tierney Sutton c o m e s . With all 16 tracks in the three- to five-minute range, the music is tight and concise while still expansive enough to swing. Another fine album from a singer who seems to get better and better with each record. – Tad Hendrickson Contact: Neal Sapper, New World ’N’ Jazz Phone: (415) 453-1558 Email: [email protected] Add Date: Aug. 22 Release Date: Aug. 23
