  • 1959 Jazz: a Historical Study and Analysis of Jazz and Its Artists and Recordings in 1959
    GELB, GREGG, DMA. 1959 Jazz: A Historical Study and Analysis of Jazz and Its Artists and Recordings in 1959. (2008) Directed by Dr. John Salmon. 69 pp. Towards the end of the 1950s, about halfway through its nearly 100-year history, jazz evolution and innovation increased at a faster pace than ever before. By 1959, it was evident that two major innovative styles and many sub-styles of the major previous styles had recently emerged. Additionally, all earlier practices were in use, making a total of at least ten actively played styles in 1959. It would no longer be possible to denote a jazz era by saying one style dominated, such as it had during the 1930s’ Swing Era. This convergence of styles is fascinating, but, considering that many of the recordings of that year represent some of the best work of many of the most famous jazz artists of all time, it makes 1959 even more significant. There has been a marked decrease in the jazz industry and in stylistic evolution since 1959, which emphasizes 1959’s importance in jazz history. Many jazz listeners, including myself up until recently, have always thought the modal style, from the famous 1959 Miles Davis recording, Kind of Blue, dominated the late 1950s. However, a few of the other great and stylistically diverse recordings from 1959 were John Coltrane’s Giant Steps, Ornette Coleman’s The Shape of Jazz To Come, and Dave Brubeck’s Time Out, which included the very well- known jazz standard Take Five. My research has found many more 1959 recordings of equally unique artistic achievement.

  • 3 Sounds, Bill Dowdy, Un Nativo Como EL Del Estado De Michigan
    THE THREE SOUNDS Texto: Mario Benso Aunque considerados por un sector de la crítica como una banda de segunda fila por su jazz de caracter directo, swingueante y decididamente mainstream, los Three Sounds fueron uno de los grupos mas populares del sello Blue Note durante las decadas de los 50 y 60 y su pianista y principal inspirador, Gene Harris, un solista reconocido por su talento y vision personal, fuertemente enraizada en la tradicio n del blues o la mu sica religiosa afroamericana. Harris, que aprendio a tocar el piano siendo el piano e intentaba compaginar su dedicacio n a la mu sica con la aficio n por el boxeo, conto ya en alguno de sus primeros grupos con el futuro batería del los 3 Sounds, Bill Dowdy, un nativo como el del Estado de Michigan. Harris y Dowdy concluyeron sus estudios en 1951 y se incorporaron al ejercito con diferentes destinos, por lo que al licenciarse cada uno prosiguio sus carreras musicales por separado. Sin embargo, en 1956 volvieron a coincidir durante un tiempo en Indiana y decidieron crear un nuevo grupo llamado los Four Sounds, con el an3 adido de un saxo tenor y del contrabajista Andrew Simpkins, originario de Richmond. No acabando de encontrar un saxofonista que acabara de asentarse en la formacio n, Harris, Dowdy y Simpkins decidieron pasar a convertirse en un trío, bajo la denominacio n definitiva de The Three Sounds. Comenzaron a hacer bolos, fundamentalmente por el area de Ohio, sirviendo ademas de soporte rítmico para solistas como Lester Young o Sonny Stitt cuando fuera necesario.

    © Ray Avery /CTSIMAGES the three sounds groovin’ hard In May of 2010, when Resonance Records first embarked upon the adventure of unearthing and presenting historical jazz recordings to the world, George Klabin and I began looking into various archives for tapes to release. One day, George came to me with a list of tapes he’d come across; tapes in the possession of Jim Wilke, who years earlier had been the host of a syndicated Seattle-based radio program called Jazz After Hours. Over the course of Jim’s storied career, he’s been a staunch advocate for jazz and its greatest protagonists. Indeed, over the years, Jim has succeeded in presenting a veri- table Who’s Who of ’50s and ’60s jazz greats to the public. From February 1962 through August 1968, Jim hosted the weekly radio program, Jazz from the Penthouse, on Seattle’s KING-FM. As a well-known radio personal- ity in the Northwest, Jim developed a working relationship with Seattle’s legend- ary jazz club, the Penthouse, and consequently was able to air live performances by a wide array of artists while they performed at the club. These performances were broadcast direct to the public right as they happened. The shows not only went on the air live, Jim taped them, employing professional recording techniques and equipment. Over the years, Jim amassed an impressive collection of high-quality tapes; tapes that form a unique archive of the extraordinary music heard over the course of more than half a decade at the Penthouse by virtually all of the amazing music legends that played there.

  • Blue Note Label Discography Was Compiled Using Our Record Collections, Schwann Catalogs from 1949 to 1982, a Phono-Log from 1963
    Discography Of The Blue Note Label Blue Note was started in New York City in 1938 by Alfred W. Lion. Blue Note recorded jazz only. The following history of the Blue Note record label is from the Blue Note Website (bluenote.com). “In 1925, 16-year old Alfred Lion noticed a concert poster for Sam Wooding's orchestra near his favorite ice-skating arena in his native Berlin, Germany. He'd heard many of his mother's jazz records and began to take an interest in the music, but that night his life was changed. The impact of what he heard live touched a deep passion within him. His thirst for the music temporarily brought him to New York in 1928 where he worked on the docks and slept in Central Park to get closer to the music. On December 23, 1938, Lion attended the celebrated Spirituals to Swing concert at Carnegie Hall. The power, soul and beauty with which boogie woogie piano masters Albert Ammons and Meade Lux Lewis rocked the stage gripped him. Exactly two weeks later, on January 6 at 2 in the afternoon, he brought them into a New York studio to make some recordings. They took turns at the one piano, recording four solos each before relinquishing the bench to the other man. The long session ended with two stunning duets. Blue Note Records was finally a reality. The label's first brochure in May of 1939 carried a statement of purpose that Lion rarely strayed from throughout the many styles and years during which he built one of the greatest jazz record companies in the world.
