At least those of us who aren’t given to have Tad Hendrickson a serious mean streak. But sometimes we need to. Who am I speaking I about? Music directors. CONTRIBUTING EDITORS I’ll admit that there are lots of reasons to say no to a promoter – foremost Keith Zimmerman of which is if the record is lousy. But there’s an even better reason to say no: Kent Zimmerman if you have no intention of ever playing the record. CONTRIBUTING WRITER/ PHOTOGRAPHER I’ll admit my reasons for bringing this up are entirely self serving. The Tom Mallison scenario goes like this: PHOTOGRAPHY 1) Promoter calls lots of radio stations, some of whom tell said promoter Barry Solof that, why yes! we’re going to add the CD. 2) Radio station doesn’t play the CD and therefore it doesn’t get spins Founding Publisher: Tony Gasparre monitored by Mediaguide or doesn’t get reported. 3) Promoter calls JazzWeek editor complaining that we or Mediaguide ADVERTISING: Devon Murphy must be screwing up because stations say they are playing it and we don’t have Call (866) 453-6401 ext. 3 or spins, or ... email: [email protected] 4) Station swears to said promoter that they played it or reported it and we or Mediaguide must be screwing up.

He’s proved me wrong three times since then and I expect he will again this year.

    ii VICTORY AND SORROW: THE MUSIC & LIFE OF BOOKER LITTLE by DYLAN LAGAMMA A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Program in Jazz History & Research written under the direction of Henry Martin and approved by _________________________ _________________________ Newark, New Jersey October 2017 i ©2017 Dylan LaGamma ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION VICTORY AND SORROW: THE MUSICAL LIFE OF BOOKER LITTLE BY DYLAN LAGAMMA Dissertation Director: Henry Martin Booker Little, a masterful trumpeter and composer, passed away in 1961 at the age of twenty-three. 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.

  • Arthur Blythe Quintet
    Arthur Blythe Quintet Thanks to woessner for sharing the Arthur Blythe Quintet (New York) and Ran Blake show at Dime. woessner noted in 2013: On June the 3, 2013, [jazz saxophonist] Arthur Blythe went into the USC Keck Center to have a large benign tumor removed from his right Kidney. The operation was serious, as Arthur spent one week after the procedure in an induced coma in their ICU unit. His health has been a challenge for him for several years now. The Parkinson’s (Arthur has been living with Parkinson’s for eight years) has developed more rapidly and at this time he is in a rehabilitation center in Lancaster, CA. His goal is to be back home (?) within the next 30 days. The recent operation he underwent diminished his ability to walk and swallow foods. He is fighting hard each day to gain his strength back.
