  • Savoy and Regent Label Discography
    Discography of the Savoy/Regent and Associated Labels Savoy was formed in Newark New Jersey in 1942 by Herman Lubinsky and Fred Mendelsohn. Lubinsky acquired Mendelsohn’s interest in June 1949. Mendelsohn continued as producer for years afterward. Savoy recorded jazz, R&B, blues, gospel and classical. The head of sales was Hy Siegel. Production was by Ralph Bass, Ozzie Cadena, Leroy Kirkland, Lee Magid, Fred Mendelsohn, Teddy Reig and Gus Statiras. The subsidiary Regent was extablished in 1948. Regent recorded the same types of music that Savoy did but later in its operation it became Savoy’s budget label. The Gospel label was formed in Newark NJ in 1958 and recorded and released gospel music. The Sharp label was formed in Newark NJ in 1959 and released R&B and gospel music. The Dee Gee label was started in Detroit Michigan in 1951 by Dizzy Gillespie and Divid Usher. Dee Gee recorded jazz, R&B, and popular music. The label was acquired by Savoy records in the late 1950’s and moved to Newark NJ. The Signal label was formed in 1956 by Jules Colomby, Harold Goldberg and Don Schlitten in New York City. The label recorded jazz and was acquired by Savoy in the late 1950’s. There were no releases on Signal after being bought by Savoy. The Savoy and associated label discography was compiled using our record collections, Schwann Catalogs from 1949 to 1982, a Phono-Log from 1963. Some album numbers and all unissued album information is from “The Savoy Label Discography” by Michel Ruppli.

After all this time anticipating her arrival true, Jodie Whittaker’s first series as the Doctor has been and gone, so we’re dedicating a lot of coverage this issue to it. We’ve got everything from reviews of the series by new president Victoria Walker, to predictions from society stalwart Ian Bayley, ratings from Francis Stojsavljevic, and even some poetry from Will Shaw. But we’re not just looking at Series Eleven. We’re looking back too, with debates on the merits of the Capaldi era, a spirited defence of The Time of the Doctor, and drifting back through the years, even a look at the Virgin New Adventures! Behind the scenes, there’s plenty of “change, my dear, and not a moment too soon!” We bid adieu to valued comrades like Peter, Francis and Alfred as new faces are welcomed onto the committee, with Victoria now helming the good ship WhoSoc, supported by new members Rory, Dahria and Ben, while familiar faces look on wistfully from the port bow. It’s also the Society’s Thirtieth Anniversary this year, which will be marked by a party in Mansfield College followed by a slap-up dinner; an event which promises to make even the most pampered Time Lord balk at its extravagance! On a personal note, it’s my last year before I graduate Oxford, at least for now, so when the next issue is out, I’ll be writing from an entirely new place.

    BAD 67 ALCHEMY 1 Martin Büsser gewidmet 1968 - 2010 2 WHAT A DIFFERENCE A NIGHT MAKES Ah, Serenade kommt tatsächlich von sereno. Weil sie unter heiterem Himmel stattfindet. Der 10. August 2010 ist so ein Abend, ideal, um ihn beim WÜRZ- BURGER HAFENSOMMER mit dem PORTICO QUARTET zu genießen. Vier le- ger gekleidete Jungmänner entern die schwimmende Bühne hinter dem Heiz- kraftwerk und beginnen, die genial verhuschten Federwölkchen über uns abzu- malen. Duncan Bellamy an den Drums, Milo Fitzpatrick am Kontrabass, Nick Mul- vey klöppelt auf etwas, das sich Hang Drums nennt und aussieht wie drei Wok- pfannen und Jack Wyllie bläst abwechselnd Tenor- und Sopranosaxophon. Sie präsentieren ihr Isla-Programm und wenige Takte genügen, um auf den voll be- setzten Treppenstufen zu begreifen, warum die Londoner für den Mercury Prize 2008 nominiert waren, auf Peter Gabriels Label Real World publizieren und eu- ropaweit als Darlings herumgereicht werden. Der melodische Sound des Hang, einer Percussion-Novität von Panart in Bern, verbreitet mit repetitiven, harmoni- schen Mustern aus nur einer Handvoll Tönen die Wärme und den hypnotischen Sog von Trinidad-Steel-Drums, erinnert stellenweise an Harfenarpeggios, mit bloßen Händen gespielt auch an eine Mbira. Das Quartett lässt in seinen Mustern Debussy und Nyman mit Tortoise vexieren. Fitzpatrick zupft warme Bassriffs. Bellamy tickelt, tüpfelt und wischt dazu funkelnde und federleichte Beats. Und schon ist jeweils der schönste Groove beieinander, etwa bei ‚Dawn Patrol‘ mit seinem simplen Pizzikatodrive, in den Wyllie hell und sanglich betörend einfädelt. Der Clou sind jedoch klangliche Accessoires, die er mit Delay- und Loop-Effekten unterlegt, einfach das Klacken der Klappenmechanik, lang gezogene oder kas- kadierende Dauertöne, das Fiepen einer Melodica.

  • CAP UCLA Presents Regina Carter's 'Southern Comfort' Plus Sam
    Press Release Friday, December 18th, 2015 Contact: Ashley Eckenweiler [email protected] CAP UCLA Presents Regina Carter’s ‘Southern Comfort’ plus Sam Amidon Feb. 26 at Royce Hall Center for the Art of Performance at UCLA is proud to present the rich stylings of jazz violinist Regina Carter, who will perform from her newest album Southern Comfort—a journey through the musical history of the South. Folk multi-instrumentalist Sam Amidon will bring the American past back to us with re-composed folk songs. Tickets ($29-$59) for Friday, February 26 at 8 p.m. are available now at cap.ucla.edu, via Ticketmaster and at the UCLA Central Ticket Office at 310.825.2101. This performance is supported in part by the Sally & William A. Rutter Endowment for the Performing Arts, the Ginny Mancini Endowment for Vocal Performance and the Roslyn Holt Swartz & Allan J. Swartz Endowment for the Performing Arts. Sam Amidon will also be participating in a special event for local public schools through the Design for Sharing arts education program. In this special performance for student audiences, Sam and his band will share re-imagined Appalachian folk favorites, incorporating elements of jazz, experimental and indie rock music. ABOUT REGINA CARTER Violinist Regina Carter is considered the foremost jazz violinist of her generation – a designation which doesn’t quite paint the picture. As a result of her curiosity, passion, and quest for beauty brought to every stop taken on her full musical journey, she was awarded a MacArthur Fellowship (a “genius grant”). Those are more apparent than ever on her latest album Southern Comfort (Sony Music Masterworks).
