It was our answer to those incredibly bad courses in radio technique taught by the various colleges and electronics schools=--where, we woul d 'guess from the unfortun~ ate students we have me t p one is taught how to SELL one 9 s companY$ one 9 s self~ and (no doubt) what ' s left of one's mind . Anyway~ it was a superb book~ but we only got through the first page because we found our own knowledge of broadcasting history quite fuzzy, now when we write a history, we are no worse than any other historian: facts are really not too im= portant~ something to be pushed around a bi~ to hang opinions on . Still i with no facts at all i a history book can read sort of funnYt so we thought we'd drop the subject until we could fig­ ure' out who Marconi was. Sherwood Anderson always said that his old rejected writings were like deformed children: he didn't want to send them out in the world, but at the same time he loved them and didn 9 t want to do them in. Wegll go him one further: we'll expose them to public scorn. viz: (TO PAGE 10) KRAB PAGE 3 WEDNESDAY JUNE 30 5.30 JANET HEWS with the Childrenws Program 0 6.00 GRAHAM GREENE: BRIGHTON ROCK (con'tinued). 6 03 0 COUNT BASIE AND THE KANSAS CITY 7.

  • Jelly Roll Morton Interviews Conducted by Alan Lomax (1938) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Ronald D
    Jelly Roll Morton interviews conducted by Alan Lomax (1938) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Ronald D. Cohen (guest post)* Jelly Roll Morton Jelly Roll Morton (1885-1941), born Ferdinand Joseph Lamothe in New Orleans, had Creole parents. He began playing the piano at an early age in the New Orleans Storyville neighborhood during the birth pangs of jazz. For a decade, starting in 1907, he traveled the country as a vaudeville musician and singer; in 1915 his composition “The Jelly Roll Blues” became the first published jazz tune. From 1917 to 1923, he continued performing from his base in Los Angeles, then moved to Chicago where he met Walter and Lester Melrose, who had a music publishing company. Along with his sheet music, Morton began recording for Paramount Records in 1923 as well as for Gennett Records in Richmond, Indiana, and for the Autograph label. Backed by various session musicians, particularly the Red Hot Peppers, his most influential recordings came in 1926-30, first for Vocalion, then for RCA-Victor. With the onslaught of the Depression, Morton’s career languished, so he moved to New York, then Washington, D.C., in 1936. He now hosted show “The History of Jazz” on WOL and performed in a local club. Known in 1937 as the Music Box/Jungle Inn, there he met the young, creative, and energetic Alan Lomax. Born in Austin, Texas, the son of the folklorist John Lomax, Alan Lomax (1915-2002) had become assistant-in-charge of the Archive of American Folk Song at the Library of Congress (LC) in 1937.

    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.

At the end of the narrative, Northup, a talented violinist, includes a musical score: a setting of a song called "Roaring River" that, as he recounted earlier in the book, he heard enslaved people on the Red River plantation singing as they patted juba at a Christmas celebration (Fig.
