Discography Compiled by Bob Weir
Notes I) The discography excludes Clayton's recordings with Count Basie and Billie Holiday during the period I937-43 (readers are referred to Chris Sheridan's Count Ba.sie: a Rio-discography (Westport, CT, and London, I986) and Jack Millar's Born to Sing: a Disrography ofBillie Holiday (Copenhagen, I979), for these details). Clayton maintains, however, that his first recordings were made in New York with Teddy Wilson and Billie Holiday (the date given by discographers as 25January I937) and not with Basie (given as 2I January 1937); he is sure that Basie's first date was about two weeks after that with Wdson and Holiday. Every other known recording by Clayton, including radio and television broadcasts, transcriptions, film soundtracks and "live" tapes, is listed. (At many sessions in the discography other items were recorded on which Clayton did not play; these are not listed.) 2) Only the first record issue is given. Microgroove issues (shown in italics) are 12" LPs unless otherwise indicated. 3) Where more than one take of a title has been issued, the takes are listed in the sequence of issue. 4) Where a vocalist is listed in the recording group title or at the head of the personnel details, he or she sings on every item in the session. Elsewhere those items with vocalists are indicated by initials immediately after the titles. 5) A question mark after a record company name indicates that the item was issued on a 78, but the record number is not known.
A large number of collectors, discographers, writers and record companies have assisted generously with information for the discography. I am grateful especially to Steve Voce (who originally suggested the project) and Chris Sheridan, who have helped me at every stage.
