Johnson Sextet — (Impro -Jazz DVD) Philly Joe Jones Dameronia —Look, (Uptown Records) Kenny Dorham —The Flamboyan, Queens, NY 1963 (Uptown Records) Much like the revered Jazz Icons DVD series we’ve covered in the past, the Impro-Jazz label has been mining the vaults for vintage footage of visiting American artists shot for European TV. Trumpeter Buck Clayton is best known as a soloist with Count Basie and as a sideman with Billie Holiday. But he was also of vital importance as an arranger and the organizer of many key small-band jam sessions, notably for Columbia Records during the 1950s. The first portion of Brussels 1961/London 1965 finds Clayton leading a company of fellow swing -era vets, Basie alumni, and blues singer Jimmy Witherspoon. For the London taping, the horn man is backed by Humphrey Littelton’s orchestra with trombonist Vic Dickenson. The appearance of shouter Big Joe Turner ups the essential-viewing factor. But as nicely as Clayton’s own bands could swing, few outfits swung harder than that of his former boss Count Basie. Although Stockholm 1968 stars a big band of mainly next still on board are long-time guitarist Freddie Green and Lester Young immediate replacement on tenor, Eddie “Lockjaw http://www.rollmagazine.com/aug10/articles/rollback.php 8/17/2010.

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”.

After several issues, he welcomed contributions from the staff, and Don Gold and I began. to contribute regularly. After Jack left, I inherited Crater's column and wrote it, with occasional contributions from Don and Jack Tynan, until I found that the well was running dry. Don and I wrote it some more and then Crater sort of passed from the scene, much like last year's favorite soloist.

STANLEY FRANK DANCE (K25-28) He Was Born on 15 September
STANLEY FRANK DANCE (K25-28) He was born on 15 September 1910 in Braintree, Essex. Records were apparently plentiful at Framlingham, so during his time there he was fortunate that the children of local record executives were also in attendance. This gave him the opportunity to hear almost anything that was at hand. By the time he left Framlingham, he and some friends were avid record collectors, going so far as to import titles from the United States that were unavailable in England. By the time of his death, he had been writing about jazz longer than anyone had. He had served as book editor of JazzTimes from 1980 until December 1998, and was still contributing book and record reviews to that publication. At the time of his death he was also still listed as a contributor to Jazz Journal International , where his column "Lightly And Politely" was a feature for many years. He also wrote for The New York Herald- Tribune, The Saturday Review Of Literature and Music Journal, among many other publications. He wrote a number of books : The Jazz Era (1961); The World of Duke Ellington (1970); The Night People with Dicky Wells (1971); The World of Swing (1974); The World of Earl Hines (1977); Duke Ellington in Person: An Intimate Memoir with Mercer Ellington (1978); The World of Count Basie (1980); and Those Swinging Years with Charlie Barnet (1984). When John Hammond began writing for The Gramophone in 1931 he turned everything upside down and Stanley began corresponding with Hammond and they met for the first time during Hammond's trip to England in 1935.

Lester Young
THE TRAGEDY AND TRIUMPH OF LESTER YOUNG By RON TABOR still at (or close to) the height of his creative powers, and much like Billie Holiday, Young suffered an extended period “I STAY BY MYSELF. SO HOW DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING of physical, psychological, and most believe, artistic decline, ABOUT ME?”1 which was visible to all but the most obtuse observers. Young’s death, in other words, can almost be described as protracted and public. To anyone more than a little familiar with the life of Lester Young, the great African American jazz tenor saxophonist, the What is usually accounted for as the cause of Young’s deterio- title of my essay must seem ironic. For Young’s life is more ration and ultimate demise was the time he spent in the US often described, when it is described at all, as a triumph fol- Army during the last year of World War II, when he was lowed by tragedy. This reflects the arc of his artistic career. In arrested for possession of marijuana and barbiturates and the late 1930s, Young burst upon the national jazz scene as a spent a term in the detention barracks. Nobody knows exactly star, even the star, of the fabulous Count Basie band. His new what went on there, but whatever it was, it had a profound sound and radical approach to improvisation, in the context impact on the saxophonist. According to most observers, of the innovations of the band itself, set the jazz world afire, Young emerged from the experience a changed—some say, paved the way for modern jazz, and influenced hundreds if disturbed—man.

Emmett Berry
1 The TRUMPET of EMMETT BERRY Solographer: Jan Evensmo Last updated: July 18, 2019 2 Born: Macon, Georgia, July 23, 1915 Died: June 22, 1993 Introduction: Emmett Berry was an excellent swing trumpeter but possibly suffered by being overshadowed by the charismatic Roy Eldridge with a related style. It was quite obvious that he should be a candidate for a solography on internet! Early history: Raised in Cleveland, Ohio; began ‘gigging’ with local bands, then joined J. Frank Terry’s Chicago Nightingales in Toledo, Ohio (1932), left Terry in Albany, New York, in 1933and ‘gigged’ mainly in that area during the following three years. Joined Fletcher Henderson in late 1936, and remained until Fletcher disbanded in June 1939. With Horace Henderson until October 1940, briefly with Earl Hines, then with Teddy Wilson’s sextet from May 1941 until July 1942, then joined Raymond Scott at C.B.S. With Lionel Hampton from spring of 1943, week with Teddy Wilson in August 1943, briefly with Don Redman and Benny Carter, then again rejomed Teddy Wilson c. November 1943. With John Kirby Sextet from summer 1944 until January 1945, Eddie Heywood, February until October 1945, then joined Count Basie. Left Basie in 1950. (ref. John Chilton). Message: I met Emmett Berry’s daughter Christina at the National Jazz Museum of Harlem a few years ago, seeking information about her father. I promised her a solography, it has taken some time, but here it is. Hopefully you are happy with this tribute to your father, Christina! 3 EMMETT BERRY SOLOGRAPHY FLETCHER HENDERSON & HIS ORCHESTRA NYC.
