  • The Lennie Tristano Trio
    immm ennie and Judy Tristano arrived in Freeport, Long Island, in the summer of 1946,' where they stayed with Chubby Jackson and his L mother before moving to New York City later that year. Freeport, Jackson's hometown, was populated by many vaudevillians, and Jack• son retained his interest in vaudeville throughout his career as a jazz musician. He described the circumstances of Tristano's arrival: "Freeport was the home of all vaudevillians. Many years ago, my mother was in vaudeville for forty-two years. ... I brought him [Tris• tano] out there and Mom played piano. There was a piano in her living room and naturally Lennie went to the piano before he went to the bathroom. And he impressed Mom very much." Jackson played an important role in Tristano's budding career in New York by making arrangements to assemble the members of a trio. They decided on the format of piano trio composed of piano, bass, and guitar, which had gained popularity with successful trios led by Clarence Profit, Art Tatum, and Nat Cole.2 The Lennie Tristano Trio Jackson, he recalls, contacted Arnold Fishkin, a bassist and his child• hood friend, and said about Tristano, "You have to hear this guy." The reason why Jackson himself did not play in the group, according to Fishkin, was that Jackson intended to keep Tristano's group sepa• rate from his own on a tour featuring the winners of the Esquire mag• azine jazz poll.' For the guitar, Jackson asked Billy Bauer, who was in New York, having left Herman in August 1946.
