Along with his brother Tommy, the talented young musicians joined Paul Whiteman’s Orchestra and at the same time they were recording many records under the billing “The Dorsey Brothers Orchestra”. Their band continued through the early thirties until a dispute over a tempo of a song separated the brothers for decades. Jimmy found himself an instant leader of the band that became the birth of the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra.

Bolig The advent of this online discography is a continuation of record descriptions that were compiled by me and published in book form by Allan Sutton, the publisher and owner of Mainspring Press. When undertaking our work, Allan and I were aware of the work started by Ted Fa- gan and Bill Moran, in which they intended to account for every recording made by the Victor Talking Machine Company. We decided to take on what we believed was a more practical approach, one that best met the needs of record collectors. Simply stat- ed, Fagan and Moran were describing recordings that were not necessarily published; I believed record collectors were interested in records that were actually available. We decided to account for records found in Victor catalogs, ones that were purchased and found in homes after 1901 as 78rpm discs, many of which have become highly sought- after collector’s items.

  • Chapter Outline
    CHAPTER SIX: “IN THE MOOD”: THE SWING ERA, 1935–1945 Chapter Outline I. Swing Music and American Culture A. The Swing Era: 1935–45 1. Beginning in 1935, a new style of jazz-inspired music called “swing” transformed American popular music. 2. Initially developed in the late 1920s by black dance bands in New York, Chicago, and Kansas City 3. The word “swing” (like “jazz,” “blues,” and “rock ’n’ roll”) derives from African American English. a) First used as a verb for the fluid, rocking rhythmic momentum created by well-played music, the term was used by extension to refer to an emotional state characterized by a sense of freedom, vitality, and enjoyment. b) References to “swing” and “swinging” are common in the titles and lyrics of jazz records made during the 1920s and early 1930s. c) Around 1935, the music industry began to use “swing” as a proper noun—the name of a defined musical genre. 4. Between 1935 and 1945, hundreds of large dance orchestras directed by celebrity bandleaders dominated the national hit parade: 1 CHAPTER SIX: “IN THE MOOD”: THE SWING ERA, 1935–1945 a) Benny Goodman b) Tommy Dorsey c) Duke Ellington d) Count Basie e) Glenn Miller 5. These big bands appeared nightly on radio, their performances transmitted coast to coast from hotels and ballrooms in the big cities. 6. Their music was featured on jukeboxes. 7. Many of the bands crisscrossed the country in buses, playing for dances and concerts at local dance halls, theaters, and colleges. 8. The big bands were essentially a big-city phenomenon, a symbol of sophistication and modernity.

  • 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.
