Født i London. Far var BBC orkester violinist. Tubby var lidt af et vidunderbarn, spillede klaver som 10-årige og startede med tenor sax som 11-årig. Hans professionelle karriere begyndte da han var 16 år i Kenny Baker Sextet. Han spillede senere i big bands under Ambrose, Terry Brown, Tito Burns, Roy Fox, Vic Lewis og Jack Parnell. Startede egen octet i 1955. Fra 1957 til 1959 var han co-leder med Ronnie Scott af The Jazz Couriers qvintet. Bagefter, gendannede han sin egen qvartet og var på turnee i Tyskland med Kurt Edelhagen. Første besøg i America fandt sted i 1961, med koncerter i The Half Note og han indspillet “Tubbs in N.Y”. Tilbage til USA igen i 1962, indspillede “Return Visit”. Tilbage endnu en gang i 1964 med koncerter i The Half Note og Boston Jazz Workshop og sidste gang i 1965, hvor han spillede i The Manne Hole i Los Angeles I London, samlede Hayes et big band og fik arbejde i film, fjernsyn og radio, med egen TV-serie 1961-62 og 1963. Han overtog tenor pladsen for Paul Gonsalves med meget kort varsel i februar 1964 under Ellington's koncert i Royal Festival Hall. Hayes var med i flere film bla. All Night Long (1961) med Charles Mingus og Dave Brubeck, og Chaplin film A King in New York (1957), The Beauty Jungle (1964) and Dr. Terror's House of Horrors (1965). Fra midt i tresserne og videre var der mindre og mindre arbejde for jazz musikere og big bands på grund af rock and roll og senere Beatles. Hayes var også misbruger, med helbredsmæsige konsekvenser. Sene i 1960 fik han en hjerteoperation. Han begynde og spille igen i 1971 men var nødt til at have mere hospitals behandling senere samme år. Han gik på en kort turnee i Norge og Sverige i 1972. Han blev inlagt igen i maj 1973, og døde på et operationsbord på Hammersmith Hospital I 1973. Hans aske er begravet i Golders Green Crematorium.

    JAZZ WRITING? I am one of Mr. Turley's "few people" who follow The New Yorker and are jazz lovers, and I find in Whitney Bal- liett's writing some of the sharpest and best jazz criticism in the field. He has not been duped with "funk" in its pseudo-gospel hard-boppish world, or- with the banal playing and writing of some of the "cool school" Californians. He does believe, and rightly so, that a fine jazz performance erases the bound• aries of jazz "movements" or fads. He seems to be able to spot insincerity in any phalanx of jazz musicians. And he has yet to be blinded by the name of a "great"; his recent column on Bil- lie Holiday is the most clear-headed analysis I have seen, free of the fan- magazine hero-worship which seems to have been the order of the day in the trade. It is true that a great singer has passed away, but it does the late Miss Holiday's reputation no good not to ad• LETTERS mit that some of her later efforts were (dare I say it?) not up to her earlier work in quality. But I digress. In Mr. Balliett's case, his ability as a critic is added to his admitted "skill with words" (Turley). He is making a sincere effort to write rather than play jazz; to improvise with words,, rather than notes. A jazz fan, in order to "dig" a given solo, unwittingly knows a little about the equipment: the tune being improvised to, the chord struc• ture, the mechanics of the instrument, etc.

  • Varsity Jazz
    Varsity Jazz Jazz at Reading University 1951 - 1984 By Trevor Bannister 1 VARSITY JAZZ Jazz at Reading University 1951 represented an important year for Reading University and for Reading’s local jazz scene. The appearance of Humphrey Lyttelton’s Band at the University Rag Ball, held at the Town Hall on 28th February, marked the first time a true product of the Revivalist jazz movement had played in the town. That it should be the Lyttelton band, Britain’s pre-eminent group of the time, led by the ex-Etonian and Grenadier Guardsman, Humphrey Lyttelton, made the event doubly important. Barely three days later, on 3rd March, the University Rag Committee presented a second event at the Town Hall. The Jazz Jamboree featured the Magnolia Jazz Band led by another trumpeter fast making a name for himself, the colourful Mick Mulligan. It would be the first of his many visits to Reading. Denny Dyson provided the vocals and the Yew Tree Jazz Band were on hand for interval support. There is no further mention of jazz activity at the university in the pages of the Reading Standard until 1956, when the clarinettist Sid Phillips led his acclaimed touring and broadcasting band on stage at the Town Hall for the Rag Ball on 25th February, supported by Len Lacy and His Sweet Band. Considering the intense animosity between the respective followers of traditional and modern jazz, which sometimes reached venomous extremes, the Rag Committee took a brave decision in 1958 to book exponents of the opposing schools. The Rag Ball at the Olympia Ballroom on 20th February, saw Ken Colyer’s Jazz Band, which followed the zealous path of its leader in keeping rigidly to the disciplines of New Orleans jazz, sharing the stage with the much cooler and sophisticated sounds of a quartet led by Tommy Whittle, a tenor saxophonist noted for his work with the Ted Heath Orchestra.

  • 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.
