By 1917, the couple had drugs and health problems and he never achieved great moved to 4500 Central Avenue. fame outside of the jazz world. The discovery of the birth certificates in Cleveland's Bureau of Vital Statistics proved that Tadd and Caesar Dameron' s fam iIy were brothers, both the sons of Isaiah and Ruth Peake. Dameron was born in Cleveland in 1917, but, like While Tadd never talked about it during his lifetime, many aspects of his life, there was a great deal of his widow and biographer MacDonald believed that Ruth confusion surrounding details of his birth and family. and Isaiah Peake split up sometime after Tadd was born MacDonald was completing his biography of and she married a man named Adolphus Dameron. He Dameron when he suddenly heard a rumor from a was a chef and had a restaurant in Cleveland called normally reliable source that Tadd and his brother, Dameron's Hut. With or without a formal adoption, Caesar, were not really brothers. The source told Ruth's sons, Caesar and Tadd, apparently took her new MacDonald that Tadd had been adopted. This was a husband's surname. fairly important bit of information for a writer who was Tadd's widow gave MacDonald a copy of a letter about to publish a biography.

Dameron also later claimed he had taught Webster how to breathe when he was playing the trumpet. Dameron's early life Caesar Dameron, three years older than Tadd, was Oberlin College? apparently the person who got Tadd interested in jazz. At one point in his youth, Dameron later told friends Tadd later said he spent a great deal of time listening to that he had originally hoped to become a doctor. There his older brother's records. In the 1952 interview, Tadd were published accounts that he went to Oberlin College as said, "I was listening to Fletcher Henderson, Duke a pre-med student but dropped out after seeing a man with Ellington and the Casa Lorna band that was playing his arm severed. According to the story, Dameron said, unique arrangements at the time." "There is enough ugliness in the world; I'm interested in Tadd attended old Central High School on East 55th beauty."

After his death, Dameron's widow all told me he first heard Tadd play piano in the 1930s but admitted the story was apoctyphal.

Little's untimely death, and still yet extensive recording career,1 presents yet another example of early passing among innovative and influential trumpeters. Like Clifford Brown before him, Theodore “Fats” Navarro before him, Little's death left a gap the in jazz world as both a sophisticated technician and an inspiring composer. However, unlike his predecessors Little is hardly – if ever – mentioned in jazz texts and classrooms. His influence is all but non-existent except to those who have researched his work. More than likely he is the victim of too early a death: Brown passed away at twenty-five and Navarro, twenty-six. Bob Cranshaw, who is present on Little's first recording,2 remarks, “Nobody got a chance to really experience [him]...very few remember him because nobody got a chance to really hear him or see him.”3 Given this, and his later work with more avant-garde and dissonant harmonic/melodic structure as a writing partner with Eric Dolphy, it is no wonder that his remembered career has followed more the path of James P.

Guitar, often times, in the history of jazz has been regulated to the role of the rhythm section, if the guitar is involved at all. While the scope of the guitar throughout the history of jazz is not the subject matter of this thesis, the aim is to present, or bring to light Jimmy Raney, a jazz guitarist who I believe, while not the first, may have been among the first to pioneer and challenge these conventions. I have researched Jimmy Raney’s background, and interviewed two people who knew Jimmy Raney: his son, Jon Raney, and record producer Don Schlitten. These two individuals provide a beneficial contrast as one knew Jimmy Raney quite personally, and the other knew Jimmy Raney from a business perspective, creating a greater frame of reference when attempting to piece together Jimmy Raney.

This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.
