His family are Methodist and Catholic.

In about 1920 or 1921, PJ told Joe Oliver he was thinking of taking up trombone; Oliver advised him to take clarinet instead, as PJ was a good whistler and should have an instrument more maneuver- able than the tromboneo Having decided on clarinet, PJ was surprised by his mother, wlio secretly bought him a trombone (August, 1920 or 1921) - PJ found but later that William Robertson, his first teacher, and a trombonist, had bought the horn for PJ's mother (Robertson was from Chicago) . PJ studied with Robertson for about six months; when he had had the horn for about nine months, he was good enough to be invited to play in the band at [Quinn's?] Chapel, where he remained four or five months, playing in the church band.

    REENGAGING BLUES NARRATIVES: ALAN LOMAX, JELLY ROLL MORTON AND W.C. HANDY By Vic Hobson A dissertation submitted to the School of Music, In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, University of East Anglia (March 2008) Copyright 2008 All rights reserved © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived therefrom, may be published without the author’s prior, written consent. i Acknowledgments This for me has been a voyage of discovery and I count myself fortunate to have enjoyed the process. This has been due, in no small part, to the support, help and encouragement that I have received along the way. People who, in the early days of my research, had been only names on the covers of books are now real; all have been helpful, most have been enthusiastic and some I now count as friends. The School of Music at the University of East Anglia is a small school in a rapidly expanding university which was led for many years by David Chadd who sadly died before the completion of this work. Fortunately the foundations he laid are secure and I have benefited from the knowledge and experience of all of the staff of the school, in particular my supervisor Jonathan Impett. Among Jonathan’s contributions, above and beyond the normal duties of a PhD supervisor is to have shown faith in a thesis that initially must have seemed rather unlikely.

  • Mss 520 the William Russell Photographic Collection 1899-1992 Ca
    Mss 520 The William Russell Photographic Collection 1899-1992 Ca. 6200 items Scope and Content Note: The William Russell Photographic Collection spans almost a century of jazz history, from Buddy Bolden’s band to the George Lewis Trio to the New Orleans Ragtime Orchestra. It is also a valuable resource in other areas of New Orleans cultural history. It includes photographs, both ones Russell took and those taken by others. Russell was interested in a complete documentation of jazz and the world it grew out of. He collected early photographs of some of the first performers of what became jazz, such as Emile Lacoume’s Spasm Band, and took photographs (or asked others to do so) of performers he met between 1939 and his death in 1992. These photographs show the musicians performing at Preservation Hall or in concert, marching in parades or jazz funerals, and at home with family and pets. He was also interested in jazz landmarks, and kept lists of places he wanted to photograph, the dance halls, nightclubs and other venues where jazz was first performed, the homes of early jazz musicians such as Buddy Bolden, and other places associated with the musicians, such as the site of New Orleans University, an African-American school which Bunk Johnson claimed as his alma mater. He took his own photographs of these places, and lent the lists to visiting jazz fans, who gave him copies of the photographs they took. Many of these locations, particularly those in Storyville, have since been torn down or altered. After Economy Hall was badly damaged in hurricane Betsy and San Jacinto Hall in a fire, Russell went back and photographed the ruins.
