    Murder in Montmartre: the Leon Crutcher Affair by Anthony Baldwin with Original Artwork by Peter Poplaski

    Murder in Montmartre: The Leon Crutcher Affair by Anthony Baldwin with original artwork by Peter Poplaski opening the place on 2nd September 1925 in a blaze of publicity. The group photo was taken at Le Pavillon’s first-anniversary outdoor gala the following season. The hiring of musicians and entertainers was handled by Max-Roger-Louis Lolivrel, one of the project’s directors and former owner of Rector’s Club at 45 Rue des Acacias in Paris, where Syd and Harry Roy’s Crichton Lyricals had cut their Continental teeth in 1923-24. Dance acts and choreography at Le Pavillon were organized by veteran hoofer Harry Pilcer, formerly dance director at Rector’s. Max Lolivrel was even pushy enough to hang Rector’s trademark signboard of two drunken dogs above Le Pavillon’s garden stage. Rector’s itself had been closed since the spring of 1925, when Max had filed for bankruptcy in the Paris courts. However, nobody seemed to care. These were heady days. Leon Allen Crutcher (b. Trenton Falls, NJ, 10 Dec 1902) and drummer George Hill Evans (b. Wilmington, NC, 8 July 1896) had been regulars at Rector’s in Paris since their arrival from New York in 1924. Leon had no particular family background n September 2nd, 1926, almost exactly ninety years in music: his father was a New York postman and his mother ago, a society photographer in the French city of an apartment-house janitress. With his good looks and Biarritz took the remarkable action shot of the Palm OBeach Six reproduced on this edition’s cover page.

  • 01 Combelle Jazz Story

    01 Combelle Jazz Story

    Combelle, Jazz Story extraits d’un texte de Pierre Lafargue La dynastie des Combelle a affirmé de bonne heure ses prérogatives sur le développement du jazz en France: - François, le père, saxophoniste alto, - Alix, le fils, saxophoniste ténor - et Philippe, le petit-fils, batteur toujours en exercice. Il est d’ailleurs curieux de constater qu’Alix Combelle démarra dans la musique tout gamin, en jouant de la batterie -dont il avait étudié la technique avec un musicien de la Garde Républicaine, Delfosse, confrère de François - avant de se consacrer au saxophone. Au contraire, son fils Philippe débuta dans l’orchestre paternel aux saxophones (ténor et baryton) et n’adopta qu’ultérieurement la batterie, qu’il travailla sous la tutelle de Félix Passerone, timbalier de l’Opéra. François Combelle (ci-dessus chez Selmer), disparu en 1953, était l’un des plus éminents solistes de la célèbre Musique de la Garde Républicaine, dont il assuma même la direction lors de l’enregistrement de plusieurs disques chez Pathé vers la fin des années vingt. À titre indicatif, mentionnons Mon Paris (one-step) et Savez-Vous (fox-trot) chez Pathé (ref. saphir 6889). Le saxophoniste des Mitchell’s Jazz Kings étant tombé malade, c’est François Combelle qui est chargé de le remplacer au pied levé dans cet orchestre vedette du “Casino de Paris” (Cf. “Le Jazz en France” Vol. I - Pathé 1727251). En dépit de son manque d’expérience du jazz, il est jugé seul capable d’exécuter certaines interprétations ardues. Ce seront les premiers contacts de la famille Combelle avec la “musique populaire des nègres d’Amérique’’, comme on l’écrivait dans les catalogues de disques de l’époque.

    FEAR OF THE “UNCIVILISED”: DUTCH RESPONSES TO AMERICAN ENTERTAINMENT MUSIC, 1920-1945 Kees Wouters During the First World War, the Dutch were still unfamiliar with the word “jazz,” but this changed in 1919 when at various dance schools “Jes,” “Jas,” or “Yasz” (initially there existed confusion over the correct spelling) was introduced as a new American dance. In 1920, the English orchestra The London Five played in The Hague and during that same year the Amsterdam dance instructor James Meyer founded the first Dutch professional jazz ensemble, the James Meyer’s Jazzband, under direction of the pianist Leo de la Fuente. The year before, Meyer had traveled to England to seek inspiration in the modern ballrooms.1 Through his orchestra, and especially through the BBC radio programs broadcast from the Savoy hotel in London, the English ballroom dances became popular in the Netherlands. Starting in 1919, the first American dance records became available. Both the English ballroom dances and the American ragtimes were a great success. A postwar dance craze erupted with great intensity. The reveling public was in an e1ectrified mood. Fed up with the Wiener Damenkapelle, the salon orchestras, and the melodies of Johann Strauss and Franz Léhar, the public demanded “jazz” music. Instead of “Tango Tea” at Pschorr in Rotterdam, people wanted to dance. One fashionable dance after the other was introduced: the Shimmy, the Charleston, the Black Bottom. Pschorr was rebuilt into a dance Mecca and a six foot replica of the Statue of Liberty, under the banner “We1come to New York,” formed part of the décor.2 String sections were expanded with a drum equipped with a horn and an enamel pan, which was enough to qualify for a jazz band in those days.
