Though Bascom had been playing guitar himself since he was young, seeing Montgomery opened his eyes to a completely new way of playing guitar and a completely new approach to music. Since that time, Bascom has been an avid listener, collector, and practitioner of jazz. He is currently performing as the Eric Bascom Trio with Ed Brainerd and Genevieve Rose. The Eric Bascom Collection of Jazz Recordings consists of hundreds of jazz 78 rpm records from the 1940s and 1950s, including a number of 78 books with beautifully illustrated covers. In addition to the records are player piano rolls, several of which were punched by Fats Waller, and a portable Walters Conley Phonola 78 record player.

  • Jimmy Raney Thesis: Blurring the Barlines By: Zachary Streeter
    Jimmy Raney Thesis: Blurring the Barlines By: Zachary Streeter A Thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Jazz History and Research Graduate Program in Arts written under the direction of Dr. Lewis Porter and Dr. Henry Martin And approved by Newark, New Jersey May 2016 ©2016 Zachary Streeter ALL RIGHT RESERVED ABSTRACT Jimmy Raney Thesis: Blurring the Barlines By: Zach Streeter Thesis Director: Dr. Lewis Porter Despite the institutionalization of jazz music, and the large output of academic activity surrounding the music’s history, one is hard pressed to discover any information on the late jazz guitarist Jimmy Raney or the legacy Jimmy Raney left on the instrument. Guitar, often times, in the history of jazz has been regulated to the role of the rhythm section, if the guitar is involved at all. While the scope of the guitar throughout the history of jazz is not the subject matter of this thesis, the aim is to present, or bring to light Jimmy Raney, a jazz guitarist who I believe, while not the first, may have been among the first to pioneer and challenge these conventions. I have researched Jimmy Raney’s background, and interviewed two people who knew Jimmy Raney: his son, Jon Raney, and record producer Don Schlitten. These two individuals provide a beneficial contrast as one knew Jimmy Raney quite personally, and the other knew Jimmy Raney from a business perspective, creating a greater frame of reference when attempting to piece together Jimmy Raney.

  • Johnny Hodges: an Analysis and Study of His Improvisational Style Through Selected Transcriptions
    HILL, AARON D., D.M.A. Johnny Hodges: An Analysis and Study of His Improvisational Style Through Selected Transcriptions. (2021) Directed by Dr. Steven Stusek. 82 pp This document investigates the improvisational style of Johnny Hodges based on improvised solos selected from a broad swath of his recording career. Hodges is widely considered one of the foundational voices of the alto saxophone, and yet there are no comprehensive studies of his style. This study includes the analysis of four solos recorded between 1928 and 1962 which have been divided into the categories of blues, swing, and ballads, and his harmonic, rhythmic, and affective tendencies will be discussed. Hodges’ harmonic approach regularly balanced diatonicism with the accentuation of locally significant non-diatonic tones, and his improvisations frequently relied on ornamentation of the melody. He demonstrated considerable rhythmic fluidity in terms of swing, polyrhythmic, and double time feel. The most individually identifiable quality of his style was his frequent and often exaggerated use of affectations, such as scoops, sighs, and glissandi. The resulting body of research highlights the identifiable characteristics of Hodges’ style, and it provides both musical and historical contributions to the scholarship.

  • Dear Friends, in Keeping with the Nostalgic Themes with Which We
    Dear friends, In keeping with the nostalgic themes with which we normally open these Activity Pages, I thought I’d tell you a story about young love – its excitement, its promise, and its almost inevitable woes. It’s a true story, one from my own past. And it begins at Roller City, a roller skating rink located, in those distant days, on Alameda Avenue just west of Federal Boulevard in Denver, Colorado. It was a balmy Friday night when I first spied my Cinderella – a lovely, lithe thing with a cute smile, pink ribbons in her blonde hair, and very “girly” bons bons of matching color hanging on the front of her white roller skates. It might have been love at first sight but certainly by the time we skated hand in hand under the multi-colored lights in a romantic “couples skate,” I was a goner. Indeed, I fell more madly in love than I had at any other time in my whole life. I was 10 years old. I drop in that fact because it proved to be the relevant point in the impending tragedy of unrequited love. For you see, it turned out there was an unbridgeable gap in our ages. I was just getting ready to go into the 4th grade whereas I learned she was going into the 5th grade! Yipes! I had fallen for an older woman! How could I break it to her? And how would I deal with the rejection I knew must follow? I was in a terrible jam and so…and I’m not proud of it…I made up a lie.

  • A Night in Tunisia (From Album “Legends Masterpieces)
    ANALISI DELLE FORME COMPOSITIVE di alcuni notissimi brani jazz di Avv. Valentina Grande 1) Sonny Rollins - St.Thomas (Original) (from album “The Prestige Years”) 2) Dizzy Gillespie feat. Charlie Parker - A Night In Tunisia (from album “Legends Masterpieces) 3) Miles Davis – Godchild (from album “Birth of the cool”) 1) Sonny Rollins - St.Thomas (Original) 1956 (from album “Saxophone Colossus”/“The Prestige Years”) St. Thomas è un brano strumentale scritto dal tenorsassofonista jazz Sonny Rollins, nel periodo dell’hard bop, nell’anno 1956, anno in cui ai musicisti del periodo fu data la possibilità di estendere la durata delle registrazioni oltre i fatidici tre minuti concessi dai supporti 78 giri, grazie all’innovazione giunta con l’introduzione del long playing in vinile a 33 giri. Nel leggendario studio di Rudy Van Gelder, niente altro che il salotto della sua abitazione ad Hackensack, New Jersey, il 22 giugno di quell’anno il produttore Bob Weinstock, creatore dell’etichetta discografica Prestige, organizzò una seduta di registrazione per il sassofonista Sonny Rollins e il suo quartetto. Il frutto del lavoro di quella giornata confluì nell’album “Saxophone Colossus”, opera che nei decenni a venire avrebbe cambiato la vita di molti sassofonisti più o meno in erba. L’eccezionale quartetto convocato per l’occasione era completato da Tommy Flanagan al pianoforte, Doug Watkins al contrabbasso e Max Roach alla batteria. Tra i brani registrati in quell’occasione, il più noto è sicuramente St. Thomas, passato alla storia come uno dei primi “calypso” registrati nell’ambito del jazz. La forma del brano, di sedici misure, è una sorta di AABC in miniatura, con sezioni di quattro misure.

  • Gerry Mulligan Discography
    GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.

  • Sangoma Everett & Lionel Martin – Revisiting Afrique of Count
    Sangoma Everett & Lionel Martin – Revisiting Afrique of Count Basie & Oliver Nelson Pascal Anquetil Crédit photo : Bertrand Gaudillère / Item La métamorphose d’un big band en duo « Ce duo, c’est l’histoire d’une rencontre du troisième type » écrit avec pertinence Jacques Denis dans son texte de pochette. Cinquante ans après son enregistrement par le grand orchestre de Count Basie, Lionel Martin et Sangoma Everett se sont lancé le défi de revisiter en tandem Afrique. Ce superbe album, trop méconnu, produit en 1970 par Bob Thiele, est basé sur un répertoire original écrit spécialement par Oliver Nelson. Bien que de génération et origine différentes, Lionel Martin, saxophoniste volcanique au gros son charnu, au vibrato enfiévré et aux phrases grasses et épaisses, incandescentes comme de la lave, et Sangoma Everett, batteur souple et élégant qui connaît sur le bout de ses baguettes toutes les subtilités des rythmes du monde, ont tenté et réussi avec ce disque une mission impossible : faire sonner leur duo comme un big band et transformer leur joute joyeuse en une conversation interactive, captivante de bout en bout. Ce que Lionel Martin, initiateur du projet, aime d’abord dans l’album de Basie, « c’est au fond une certaine simplicité, un rapport à la ligne de basse très simple et répétitive avec des thèmes très puissants. » Résultat : la réussite principale des deux amis est d’avoir su transmuer le swing “basique” en groove grondant et entrainant ; à savoir une certaine manière organique de faire pulser la musique en un roulis polyrythmique irrésistible. Cela crève les oreilles : les deux complices tout au long de leur dialogue vif et chaud s’entendent bien et savent s’écouter pour élaborer ensemble une architecture sonore singulière et enfanter librement une musique entêtante, fertilisée à l’humus du blues et aiguillonnée par l’appel du gospel.
