Jon Hendricks
Jon Hendricks By Leonard Feather ToJay the world is knocking at Jon Hendricks’ door. Less than two sears ago, it was the other way around. Possessed of a remark able talent, Jon paid heavy dues for many years, earning a bare living playing drums, writing unsuccessful songs, and singing when a gig was available. As anyone can tell you who has studied the records of Lambert- Hendricks-Ross (for most of which Jon supplies the words), he is not merely a lyricist but a poet and a philosopher. During the recent Jazz tor Moderns tour, I got to know Jon well and found in him an e tergizing, 200-volt A.C. personality, with strong and often infuriating views on every subject from Fascism and Communism to astrology and numerology. This automatically meant that the records for his first Blindfold Test, instead of being confined to vocals, had to cover as broad a range as possible. His comments were tape-recorded, as are all inter views for this feature, and he was given no information, either before or during the test, about the records played. of th«» ‘Yeah, Ming the Mercifull' 1, Mel Torme with the Mel-Tones. A Bunch of down, because I was stomping my feet What they want to mess with War the Bluet (Verve). Art Pepper, tenor sax; all the way. Four stars. Was it the dell’s tune like that for? I liked it better Jack Sheldon, trumpet. 15, Col. Dukes of Dixieland? the old way, so that spoiled this one for A potpourri of blues—yeah! I heard me.
