By first grade, he was listening daily to recordings of groups such as the Four Freshmen, The Hi-La's, Woody Herman, Buddy Rich , Bud Shank, Frank Rosalina, Howard Roberts, the Sauter-Finegan Orchestra, the Candoli brothers, Gerry l\:'lulligan and Paul Desmond. He memorized the layers of each tune, from the melody to the bass line to the accompaniment parts and horn parts. It became evident at an early age that George was gifted in musical ability and he knew that was what he wanted to do with his life. George has enjoyed a rewarding career in music education for 24 years. He teaches Music Theory and Composition and Audio Technology at Cuesta College in San Luis Obispo CA.

BILL HOLMAN NEA Jazz Master (2010) Interviewee: Bill Holman (May 21, 1927 - ) Interviewer: Anthony Brown with recording engineer Ken Kimery Date: February 18-19, 2010 Repository: Archives Center, National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution Description: Transcript, 84 pp. Brown: Today is Thursday, February 18th, 2010, and this is the Smithsonian Institution National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Masters Oral History Program interview with Bill Holman in his house in Los Angeles, California. Good afternoon, Bill, accompanied by his wife, Nancy. This interview is conducted by Anthony Brown with Ken Kimery. Bill, if we could start with you stating your full name, your birth date, and where you were born. Holman: My full name is Willis Leonard Holman. I was born in Olive, California, May 21st, 1927. Brown: Where exactly is Olive, California? Holman: Strange you should ask [laughs]. Now it‟s a part of Orange, California. You may not know where Orange is either. Orange is near Santa Ana, which is the county seat of Orange County, California. I don‟t know if Olive was a part of Orange at the time, or whether Orange has just grown up around it, or what. But it‟s located in the city of Orange, although I think it‟s a separate municipality. Anyway, it was a really small town. I always say there was a couple of orange-packing houses and a railroad spur. Probably more than that, but not a whole lot.
  • Discography Updates (Updated May, 2021)

    Discography Updates (Updated May, 2021)

    Discography Updates (Updated May, 2021) I’ve been amassing corrections and additions since the August, 2012 publication of Pepper Adams’ Joy Road. Its 2013 paperback edition gave me a chance to overhaul the Index. For reasons I explain below, it’s vastly superior to the index in the hardcover version. But those are static changes, fixed in the manuscript. Discographers know that their databases are instantly obsolete upon publication. New commercial recordings continue to get released or reissued. Audience recordings are continually discovered. Errors are unmasked, and missing information slowly but surely gets supplanted by new data. That’s why discographies in book form are now a rarity. With the steady stream of updates that are needed to keep a discography current, the internet is the ideal medium. When Joy Road goes out of print, in fact, my entire book with updates will be posted right here. At that time, many of these changes will be combined with their corresponding entries. Until then, to give you the fullest sense of each session, please consult the original entry as well as information here. Please send any additions, corrections or comments to http://gc-pepperadamsblog.blogspot.com/, despite the content of the current blog post.

  • PAS/Yamaha Terry Gibbs Vibraphone Scholarship

    PAS/Yamaha Terry Gibbs Vibraphone Scholarship

    PAS/Yamaha Terry Gibbs Vibraphone Scholarship Legendary vibraphonist Terry Gibbs began his career at the age of 12 after winning the Major Bowes Amateur Hour Contest and subsequently began touring professionally. He performed for many years as a drummer and percussionist until his affinity for bebop motivated him to return to the vibes and subsequently become recognized as one of the best ever to grace the genre of bop. After World War II, Gibbs toured with Buddy Rich, Woody Herman, Louie Bellson, Benny Goodman and formed his own band for the Mel Torme television show. Gibbs led his own bands in the 50’s and in 1957 formed the critically acclaimed big band “The Dream Band”. Throughout his career he has enjoyed world acclaim playing with jazz luminaries, Buddy DeFranco, Charlie Parker, Dizzie Gillespie, Horace Silver, Max Roach, Art Blakey, Elvin Jones and Tito Puente. Terry Gibbs is a Percussive Arts Society Hall of Fame member with 65 albums to his credit, winner of three major jazz polls and creator of over 300 compositions. This scholarship is in honor of the indelible mark Gibbs has left on the world of vibes. One $1,000 scholarship will be awarded. Eligibility: The scholarship is open to any full time student registered in an accredited college or university school of music during the 2011–2012 academic year. Applicant must be a current member of the Percussive Arts Society. Application Materials: All applicants must submit a completed application, a letter of recommendation verifying age and school attendance, and a DVD*. Criteria: • The selection(s) within the DVD should represent live jazz vibraphone performance and not be edited • The applicant must be visible throughout the submitted performance(s) • The ability of the applicant to perform on additional percussion or other instruments is not a consideration for this scholarship.
