  • I Remember When…. Madrona Black History—Al Larkins by Mark Fleury Quick! Which Seattle Jazz Musician's Name Is Attached To
    I Remember When…. Madrona Black History—Al Larkins By Mark Fleury Quick! Which Seattle jazz musician’s name is attached to a local civic landmark? Quincy Jones? Ray Charles? Ernestine Anderson? Diane Schuur? Kenny G? Good guesses--but all wrong. On a quiet spot in Madrona--at the corner of East Pike St. and 35th Avenue--lies a lovely green expanse of gentle slopes and curving paths landscaped with maple, pine, and fir trees. It’s named after Al Larkins, a Madrona jazz musician. Al played bass and tuba in many local groups, including the Rainy City Jazz Band, one of the city’s most popular and long-lived, jazz ensembles of the late 1940s. Larkins also was a civic leader--a social teacher at Franklin High School, choir director at Madrona Presbyterian Church, and PTA member at Madrona School. Al lived for many years on 30th Avenue and his daughter, Emilee attended Madrona School. Emilee and her husband John Capps still live in Madrona on ??? Avenue. In 1968, Al and his wife Ginny moved into a home on 37th Avenue that Ginny still calls home today. Born July 15, 1924, in Baltimore, Larkins came from a musical family. His older brother Ellis became Ella Fitzgerald’s piano accompanist. Al played tuba in the Baltimore Park and National Guard bands before graduating from Douglass High School. He then joined the Navy as a musician and was stationed at the Sand Point Naval Air Station. In 1943 he played in legendary Seattle band the Jive Bombers. A jump band in the style of Louis Jordan, the Bombers performed jive vocals and got the crowd up dancing.

  • Catalogue of Photographs of Performers at the Embassy Theatre
    Catalogue of Photographs of Performers and Shows in the Archives of the Embassy Theatre Foundation The archives of the Embassy Theatre Foundation hold more than 3000 artifacts, including more than 600 photographs of vaudevillians inscribed to Bud Berger (long-time stage man- ager at the Embassy Theatre, known as the Emboyd until 1952); more than 300 posters, playbills, programs, stools, and even guitars signed by the stars and casts of shows that have played at the Embassy Theatre over the past forty years, rang- ing from classic and current Broadway shows to acrobatic groups, choral ensembles, dance shows, ballet, stand-up comedians, rock bands, country singers, travel films, silent films, theatre organists, and so on; and hundreds of publicity photographs of performers, shows, and events at the theatre, primarily from the period following the establishment of the Embassy Theatre Foundation and its rescue of the theatre from the wrecking ball in 1975; and a nearly complete run of the journal of the American Theatre Organ Society. The archive is now almost fully catalogued and preserved in archival housing. Earlier excerpts from the catalogue (available on the Archives page of the Embassy Theatre’s web site) cover the photographs inscribed to Bud Berger and the posters, playbills, programs, stools, and so on from later shows at the Embassy. This is the third excerpt, covering the public- ity photographs of the last forty-five years and a few photographs of earlier events, Bud Berger, and other members of the stage crew. The publicity photographs are primarily of individ- ual performers, but a few shows are presented as well, including Ain’t Misbehavin’, Annie, Barnum, Bubbling Brown Sugar, Cabaret, California Suite, Cats, A Christ- mas Carol, Dancin’, Evita, Gypsy, I'm Getting My Act Together And Taking It On The Road, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Peter Pan, Same Time Next Year, Side by Side by Sondheim, and Ziegfeld: A Night at the Follies.
