Los Angeles Times: Martha Tilton, 91; '40S Vocalist Know For
http://www.latimes.com/news/obituaries/la-me-tilton12dec12,0,2930884.story?coll=la-news-obituaries OBITUARIES Martha Tilton, 91; '40s vocalist know for 'And the Angels Sing' By Dennis McLellan Times Staff Writer December 12, 2006 Martha Tilton, a popular big-band vocalist best known for her recording of "And the Angels Sing" with the Benny Goodman orchestra in 1939, has died. She was 91. Known as "Liltin' Martha Tilton" during her 1940s heyday, Tilton died of natural causes Friday at her home in Brentwood, said her granddaughter Maura Smith. In the words of George T. Simon, author of the 1967 book "The Big Bands," Tilton was "a young, pretty and effervescent lass" when she was singing with the Jimmy Dorsey orchestra in the mid-1930s. Tilton didn't start recording, however, until she joined Benny Goodman in 1937. "To me, she was so unique because she didn't reinterpret the song that the composers gave her; she sang it straight, without her own styling or imprint on it," Chuck Cecil, longtime host of the Los Angeles-area radio show "The Swingin' Years," told The Times on Monday. "So many of them become song stylists and they sort of reinterpret the song," Cecil said, "but she sang it with clarity and with charm — and very successfully. I'd say one of the definitive records of the swing era was the song 'And the Angels Sing.' " During Tilton's time as vocalist with Goodman, the band made history when it performed the first-ever jazz concert at Carnegie Hall in 1938. -
The History of Women in Jazz in Britain
The history of jazz in Britain has been scrutinised in notable publications including Parsonage (2005) The Evolution of Jazz in Britain, 1880-1935 , McKay (2005) Circular Breathing: The Cultural Politics of Jazz in Britain , Simons (2006) Black British Swing and Moore (forthcoming 2007) Inside British Jazz . This body of literature provides a useful basis for specific consideration of the role of women in British jazz. This area is almost completely unresearched but notable exceptions to this trend include Jen Wilson’s work (in her dissertation entitled Syncopated Ladies: British Jazzwomen 1880-1995 and their Influence on Popular Culture ) and George McKay’s chapter ‘From “Male Music” to Feminist Improvising’ in Circular Breathing . Therefore, this chapter will provide a necessarily selective overview of British women in jazz, and offer some limited exploration of the critical issues raised. It is hoped that this will provide a stimulus for more detailed research in the future. Any consideration of this topic must necessarily foreground Ivy Benson 1, who played a fundamental role in encouraging and inspiring female jazz musicians in Britain through her various ‘all-girl’ bands. Benson was born in Yorkshire in 1913 and learned the piano from the age of five. She was something of a child prodigy, performing on Children’s Hour for the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) at the age of nine. She also appeared under the name of ‘Baby Benson’ at Working Men’s Clubs (private social clubs founded in the nineteenth century in industrial areas of Great Britain, particularly in the North, with the aim of providing recreation and education for working class men and their families). -

Bolig American Discography Project UC Santa Barbara Library © 2017 John R. Bolig. All rights reserved. ii The Victor Discography Series By John R. Bolig The advent of this online discography is a continuation of record descriptions that were compiled by me and published in book form by Allan Sutton, the publisher and owner of Mainspring Press. When undertaking our work, Allan and I were aware of the work started by Ted Fa- gan and Bill Moran, in which they intended to account for every recording made by the Victor Talking Machine Company. We decided to take on what we believed was a more practical approach, one that best met the needs of record collectors. Simply stat- ed, Fagan and Moran were describing recordings that were not necessarily published; I believed record collectors were interested in records that were actually available. We decided to account for records found in Victor catalogs, ones that were purchased and found in homes after 1901 as 78rpm discs, many of which have become highly sought- after collector’s items.

German-born clarinetist Susanne Ortner and American jazz pianist Tom Roberts met in Pittsburgh while performing in 2006 and formed the Ortner-Roberts Duo in 2007, melding the two supposedly unrelated musical and cultural influences of Harlem Stride Piano and Klezmer to form a whole new style they affectionately call "Yiddish/Creole Fusion." The Roberts have thoroughly immersed themselves in the music of the '20s, '30s, and '40s as well and painstakingly recreate the music of Benny Goodman, Jelly Roll Morton, Artie Shaw, and Sidney Bechet among others, evoking "the thicksweet air of New Orleans or the glamour of a shimmering dancehall... in Chicago or New York City."
