Chambers performed as a sideman with some of the greatest names in jazz including Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Cannonball Adderley, Sonny Rollins, Wes Montgomery, Joe Henderson, Bill Evans, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Hank Mobley, Lee Morgan, Gil Evans and Freddie Hubbard. He recorded a half dozen LPs under his own name including his own compositions but is probably best remembered for his contribution to the greatest jazz recording of all time; Miles Davis Kind Of Blue. Mr. P.C.: The Life and Music of Paul Chambers tells the story of this quiet giant of jazz; his early experiences in Detroit, his early rise to jazz celebrity, his time at the top, his ultimate struggle against the tides of change enveloping the music that he loved and the circumstances surrounding his tragic death, aged 33, in 1969. Using material from other literary sources and interviews with family members, friends and colleagues with the jazz fraternity, this book represents the first time that much of this influential musicians story has been told. The book includes a comprehensive discography detailing all of his recordings both as a sideman and bandleader. If you approach this book as a biography you might be disappointed. Think of it as an annotated discography that serves as a biographical sketch positioned between beginning (the early years) and ending (post mortem appraisal) essays.The bulk of the book is devoted almost exclusively to Paul Chambers recorded output with a smattering of the events of his life and observations from fellow musicians. Just flipping through you will see paragraph after paragraph beginning with a song title. Rob Palmer is jazz bass player first and foremost, not a biographer. As such, his observations on the recordings are on the whole balanced and insightful. He is not, thankfully, writing one of those superficial star bios and he does not shy from recordings that are not up to the high musical standard Chambers was capable of.From Palmers research we learn that Paul was quiet (unnervingly so to some), humble, extraordinarily talented young man who was susceptible to addiction (or perhaps: susceptible to the pervasive drug culture of his time and place). He suffered most of his life, and terribly in his later years, from medical problems that he effectively masked from even those close to him. His early days, family, high-school, are described in the opening chapter pretty much by rote. The final chapter is a very nicely written, critical appreciation of his lifes work and legacy, with observations from his peers. It would stand very well on its own.But I find that so much of the book is given to the chronicling and analysis of the recordings that one has to go fishing to learn much about the man himself or the mundane facts of his life that we would normally expect in a biography: what he enjoyed or disliked, home life, how he prepared for a gig, how he composed and the hallmarks of his compositional style, what he thought of other musicians, music or other events in the world around him. There certainly is some of this in the book but it is slipped in among the notations and discussion of this or that particular recording or gig. To be fair, some of these things may be unknown or uncertain because Paul was reserved as he was and Palmer, to his credit, does not engage in speculation or armchair psychology and he does not dish out gossip. Then again, if one thing you enjoy is reading a well considererd review of some of your favorite recordings, you will find a wealth here.The book is organized around the recordings, not around the events in Paul Chambers life. Rob Palmer researched his subject thoroughly. His style is that of a researcher, not a story teller. This book fills a much needed gap; Paul Chambers deserves the respect he has always had from his peers and his good works should be more widely appreciated because of Palmers book. The book will also provide a reliable source for research into the history of the music.

  • The Modality of Miles Davis and John Coltrane14
    CURRENT A HEAD ■ 371 MILES DAVIS so what JOHN COLTRANE giant steps JOHN COLTRANE acknowledgement MILES DAVIS e.s.p. THE MODALITY OF MILES DAVIS AND JOHN COLTRANE14 ■ THE SORCERER: MILES DAVIS (1926–1991) We have encountered Miles Davis in earlier chapters, and will again in later ones. No one looms larger in the postwar era, in part because no one had a greater capacity for change. Davis was no chameleon, adapting himself to the latest trends. His innovations, signaling what he called “new directions,” changed the ground rules of jazz at least fi ve times in the years of his greatest impact, 1949–69. ■ In 1949–50, Davis’s “birth of the cool” sessions (see Chapter 12) helped to focus the attentions of a young generation of musicians looking beyond bebop, and launched the cool jazz movement. ■ In 1954, his recording of “Walkin’” acted as an antidote to cool jazz’s increasing deli- cacy and reliance on classical music, and provided an impetus for the development of hard bop. ■ From 1957 to 1960, Davis’s three major collaborations with Gil Evans enlarged the scope of jazz composition, big-band music, and recording projects, projecting a deep, meditative mood that was new in jazz. At twenty-three, Miles Davis had served a rigorous apprenticeship with Charlie Parker and was now (1949) about to launch the cool jazz © HERMAN LEONARD PHOTOGRAPHY LLC/CTS IMAGES.COM movement with his nonet. wwnorton.com/studyspace 371 7455_e14_p370-401.indd 371 11/24/08 3:35:58 PM 372 ■ CHAPTER 14 THE MODALITY OF MILES DAVIS AND JOHN COLTRANE ■ In 1959, Kind of Blue, the culmination of Davis’s experiments with modal improvisation, transformed jazz performance, replacing bebop’s harmonic complexity with a style that favored melody and nuance.

  • An Interview with the Authors, Joshua Berrett and Louis G. Bourgois III -- and the Eminent J.J
    An Interview With The Authors, Joshua Berrett And Louis G. Bourgois III -- And The Eminent J.J. Johnson November 1999 By Victor L. Schermer http://www.allaboutjazz.com/iviews/jjjohnson.htm AAJ: Congratulations to Josh and Louis on your new book- and to J.J. for now having a scholarly reference devoted to your outstanding contributions to music. Just for the fun of it, which three recordings and/or scores would you take to the proverbial desert island, if they were to be your only sources of music there? J.J. Johnson: Hindemith's Mathis der Maler, Ravel's Daphnis and Chloe. Any of the Miles Davis Quintet recordings that include Coltrane, Paul Chambers, Philly Joe, and Red Garland. In my opinion, contemporary jazz music does not get any better, or any more quintessential than that Quintet's live appearances or the recorded legacy that they left for us to enjoy. Louis Bourgois: The scores I'd take would be: Aaron Copland, Third Symphony (CD: St. Louis Symphony Orchestra, Leonard Slatkin conductor: Angel CDM7643042);. Leonard Bernstein, Chichester Psalms (CD: Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, Robert Shaw, conductor; TelArc Digital CD80181). And a Compact Disc: Miles Davis Kind of Blue (Columbia CK40579). I would sneak a few more ;-), including Hindemith, Mathis der Maler, which J.J. mentioned. Joshua Berrett: My tastes here are very similar to J.J's: a mix of classical music and jazz. I would single out Brahms' Symphony No. 2, Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, and Miles Davis' sessions with Coltrane and company. THE BOOK AND ITS AUTHORS AAJ: Josh and Louis, tell us a bit about your musical background.

New-Ma (Lee Morgan) 8:13 Recorded on September 29, 1957 Lee Morgan, not yet twenty years old at this writing, is here represented for the fifth time as the leader of a Blue Note recording session. His fantastically rapid growth (technically and musically) as witness previous efforts, along with this one, places him beyond the "upcoming" or "potential" status into the ranks of those whose potential has been realized. Lee stands, right now, as one of the top trumpet players in modern jazz. As the title states, Lee is a "Cooker." He plays hot. His style, relating to the Gillespie- Navarro-Brown school, is strong and vital. There is enthusiasm in his music. A kind of "happy to be playing" feeling that is immediately communicated to the listener. Lee's later three Blue Note offerings have been set within the sparkling context of tunes written, mostly, by the provocative Benny Golson. Herein he reverts back to the format of his first recording, playing in a less "strict" atmosphere and just plain wailing throughout. "A Night In Tunisia" (Dizzy's tune which has been lee's showcase vehicle since he joined the Gillespie organization) leads off the set.
