  • “In the Mood”--Glenn Miller and His Orchestra (1939) Added to the National Registry: 2004 Essay by Dennis M
    “In the Mood”--Glenn Miller and His Orchestra (1939) Added to the National Registry: 2004 Essay by Dennis M. Spragg (guest post)* “The Anthem of the Swing Era” On August 1, 1939, Glenn Miller and his Orchestra recorded the Joe Garland composition “In the Mood” for RCA Bluebird records. It became a top-selling record that would be permanently associated with Miller and which has become the easily recognized “anthem of the swing era.” “In the Mood” appears to have been inspired by several earlier works from which the tune was developed. Once composed, it remained a “work in progress” until recorded by Miller. The first indication of a composition with elements resembling what would become “In the Mood” was “Clarinet Getaway,” recorded by the Jimmy O’Bryant Washboard Wonders in 1925 for Paramount records. It is matrix number P-2148 and was issued as Paramount 12287. It was paired with a tune titled “Back Alley Rub.” The recording was made by a four-piece band with Arkansas native O’Bryant playing clarinet and accompanied by a piano, cornet and washboard player. Following O’Bryant, similar themes were evident in the Wingy Manone recording of “Tar Paper Stomp.” Manone’s recording is considered the genesis of “In the Mood” by most jazz historians. The recording is by Barbeque Joe and his Hot Dogs, the name under which Manone recorded at the time. Manone recorded “Tar Paper Stomp” on August 28, 1930, for the Champion label (which was acquired by Decca in 1935). Reissues credit the record to Wingy Manone and his Orchestra.

  • Glenn Miller's
    n Dec. 15, 1944, it had been raining in Eng- land for three days. The regular military shuttle Oflights to France were canceled. Maj. Glenn Miller waited impatiently, eager Glenn Miller’s to get to Paris to make arrangements for a Christmas performance by his Army Air Forces band. Air Force Odyssey When the opportunity arose to hitch a ride across the English Channel on a small single-engine airplane, he leapt at it. The aircraft was a UC-64 Noorduyn Norseman, the military version of a Canadian bush plane. Miller did not fully understand the risk he was tak- ing, nor did he know that the pilot was exceeding his clearance, which was for local flying only. The airplane took off into the fog from a field north of London at 1:55 p.m. and disappeared into history. For a while, there was hope that it might have landed somewhere, but it did not turn up. Eighth Air Force officially declared the aircraft missing and made a public announcement on Christmas Eve. Glenn Miller was at the peak of his fame. He had been the most popular bandleader in America before he joined the Army in 1942. In 1940 alone, his records sold almost three million copies and he had 31 hits in the Top 10 that year. His AAF band, formed in 1943, was an all-star team. Miller had his pick of top musicians who had been drafted into the armed forces. He was able to pull in several former members of his own band and others who had played with Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey, and Artie Shaw.

  • Glenn Miller 1941 “Keep ‘Em Flying” America’S Number One Band
    GLENN MILLER 1941 “KEEP ‘EM FLYING” AMERICA’S NUMBER ONE BAND Dedicated to the Glenn Miller Birthplace Society June 2021 Prepared by: Dennis M. Spragg Glenn Miller Archives Glenn Miller and his Orchestra, Cafe Rouge, January 1941 A Pivotal Year 1941 was a pivotal year in the history of the United States and for America’s number one bandleader, Glenn Miller. As of January 1, all ASCAP-licensed music (most popular music) was off the air. Glenn broadcast with a replacement BMI-licensed theme, “Slumber Song.” On January 17, the band recorded the classic “Song of the Volga Boatmen,” Bill Finegan’s traditional music response to Jerry Gray’s treatment of “Anvil Chorus.” If not for the broadcasting industry vs. ASCAP dispute, these two all-time Miller hits might never have been written or performed. Further changes arrived to shake up the successful Miller musical organization. A gossip columnist ran a story about Marion Hutton’s pregnancy, which pushed her to stop performing sooner than anticipated. By January 1941, Marion was only appearing on Glenn’s “Chesterfield Moonlight Serenade” broadcasts and not at the Café Rouge. Miller had to replace her. A young “dimpled darling” named Dorothy Claire from LaPorte, Indiana was singing for bandleader Bobby Byrne. Dorothy was under contract for three years with Byrne. So when Bobby learned that Glenn Miller intended to hire Ms. Claire, he promptly sued Miller for $25,000. However, Claire joined the Miller band on January 8. Glenn offered her a salary of $250 per week, a significant raise from the $75 per week she earned with Byrne.

  • DENNIS M. SPRAGG December 2017 Dedicated to the Glenn Miller
    PREPARED BY: DENNIS M. SPRAGG December 2017 Dedicated To The Glenn Miller Birthplace Society Clarinda, Iowa An Historic Collaboration Jerry Gray (Generoso Graziano) Discovering the Pearls Arranger Jerry Gray (Generoso Graziano) was born in Boston, Massachusetts July 3, 1915. He was a virtuoso violinist, arranger and ultimately a bandleader. By 1939, Gray was the chief arranger and musical collaborator for Artie Shaw, the clarinet superstar who lead the top dance band in the United States. During that very important year in musical history, Glenn Miller’s band was coming on fast as a competitor to Shaw and other leading bands led by. among others, Tommy Dorsey and Benny Goodman. During the summer and early fall of 1939, Artie Shaw became disenchanted with the music business and was the subject of a public controversy regarding his pointedly negative opinion of “jitterbugs”. Some of Shaw’s musicians and arranger Gray became concerned that their employer might soon disband to take a break and possibly reorganize in 1940. The talented drummer Buddy Rich accepted a job offer from Tommy Dorsey and effervescent saxophonist and vocalist Tony Pastor was rumored to be exploring the idea of forming his own band. Meanwhile, Glenn Miller was employing brilliant arranger Bill Finegan and free lancers including Jimmie Lunceford’s protégé Eddie Durham. Miller needed full-time arranging skill and this led the bandleader to seek out the possibly available and eminently qualified Jerry Gray, who was arguably the best arranger available. As it turned out, Artie Shaw walked off the bandstand at the Hotel Pennsylvania’s Café Rouge in November 1939.

  • Begin the Beguine”--Artie Shaw & His Orchestra (1938) Added to the National Registry: 2012 Essay By: Tom Nolan (Guest Post)*
    “Begin the Beguine”--Artie Shaw & His Orchestra (1938) Added to the National Registry: 2012 Essay by: Tom Nolan (guest post)* Artie Shaw One of the most popular American recordings of the twentieth century was never expected to be a hit. “Begin the Beguine”--the three-and-a-quarter-minute, 78-rpm disc that catapulted bandleader-clarinetist Artie Shaw (1910-2004) to international stardom in the autumn of 1938, and by the 1960s was estimated to have sold some six and a half million copies-- was released as the B-side to a swing-era update of Rudolf Friml’s old operetta favorite “Indian Love Call.” Shaw’s cheeky arrangement of Friml’s number, with a scat-tinged vocal by saxophonist Tony Pastor, had been prompting strong reactions during the band’s live performances. “’Indian Love Call’ was the one that got all the applause in the ballroom,” Shaw said; Artie was all but certain it would be a sensation on disc. But before waxing “Indian Love Call” on the afternoon of July 24th, 1938, Art had another number he wanted to record: a smooth, propulsive styling of an all-but-forgotten three-year-old song from the unsuccessful 1935 Cole Porter show “Jubilee.” That didn’t sound like a good idea to the folks at RCA, who said Shaw’s notion was “a complete waste of time.” The record-men only agreed to let him record “Begin the Beguine,” Artie wrote, “when I insisted that it would make a nice, quiet contrast to ‘Indian Love Call.’” Cole Porter was already one of Shaw’s favorite show-composers; in the course of Artie’s career, he’d record more tunes by Porter (19 total) than by any other songwriter.
