  • BOB SEDERGREEN: the INTERVIEW by Adrian Jackson*
    BOB SEDERGREEN: THE INTERVIEW by Adrian Jackson* _______________________________________________________ [This interview appeared in the December 1981 edition of Jazz Magazine] ver the last decade, I have had the pleasure of hearing pianist Bob Sedergreen play on many occasions: with vibist Alan Lee, with a succession of bands led O by Brian Brown, as the focal point of the Ted Vining Trio, with Onaje, as the wild card in Peter Gaudion’s Blues Express, providing fairly heroic support to visiting stars Jimmy Witherspoon, Phil Woods, Richie Cole and Milt Jackson, even solo. I have always enjoyed and admired his playing for its unflagging swing and qualities of joy, resourcefulness and commitment, and his determination to take chances at all times in search of inspiration, which he seems to find more frequently than most. He has long impressed me as a jazz musician who often plays ‘above himself’ because he has the courage to do just that. Bob Sedergreen: the sum total of his music is pure Sedergreen… In the last few years, he has continued to increase the scope and depth of his playing, and his confidence in it, to the point where he is obviously one of the best musicians in Australia. We have too few others who can so consistently be so exciting, original, inventive, surprising and enjoyable. __________________________________________________________ *In 1981 when this was published, Adrian Jackson was a freelance writer, who had been jazz critic with the Melbourne Age since 1978. 1 I won’t try to describe his playing. As with any really good jazz artist, his playing is a reflection of his listening and playing experiences, and his own personality.

    TED VINING: IN THE JAZZ WILDERNESS by Neville Meyers* _________________________________________________________ [This article appeared in the Spring 1983 edition of Jazz Magazine.] Ted Vining in 1974: striving to create an environment for change… PHOTO COURTESY AUSTRALIAN JAZZ MUSEUM alent, and high-powered creative drive, can be self-alienating qualities. Blessed — or cursed — with them, the artist stands apart, adopts a critical stance, and T inevitably comes into conflict with his or her artistic environment. The conflict may out of sheer frustration cost you an ear (Van Gogh), thrust upon the artist a self- protective cloak of stark eccentricity (Monk), or in much less dramatic fashion — in the case of Ted Vining —manifest itself in striving to create an environment for change. The desire for change — allied with a deep commitment to strenuously push jazz forward as an evolving art form — are obviously deeply embedded in the Ted Vining personality. But change, the drummer will tell you, is not what the Brisbane jazz scene — in Vining's terms, the jazz wilderness — is all about. Says Vining: "Brisbane is a jazz wilderness because many people feel lost here. The lost feeling comes from ___________________________________________________ *In 1983 when this was written, Neville Meyers was a librarian, jazz collector, part-time jazz programmer/announcer on Brisbane's 4MBS-FM, and veteran habitué of jazz clubs in Australia and the United States. 1 critically looking at the musical environment, noticing a lack of professionalism, and seeing in many of its musicians on stage, lack of reason for being there."
