  • Benjamin Francis Webster “Ben” “Frog” “Brute”
    1 The TENORSAX of BENJAMIN FRANCIS WEBSTER “BEN” “FROG” “BRUTE” PART 1 (1931 – 1943) Solographer: Jan Evensmo Last update: April 13, 2018 2 Born: Kansas City, Missouri, March 27, 1909 Died: Amsterdam, Holland, Sept. 20, 1973 Introduction: Ben Webster was one of the all-time tenor saxophone greats with a long career of more than forty years. He was a favourite from the very first record with Duke Ellington from the early forties, and his music was always fascinating. I wrote his first solography in 1978 in Jazz Solography Series. Later his music appeared in the various ‘History of Jazz Tenor Saxophone’ volumes, including 1959. Later works will appear in due time on Jazz Archeology. He visited Norway several times, and I never forget when my friend Tor Haug served him fish for dinner! Early history: First studied violin, then piano. Attended Wilberforce College. Played piano in a silent-movie house in Amarillo, Texas. First professional work with Bretho Nelson's Band (out of Enid, Oklahoma), then, still on piano with Dutch Campbell's Band. Received early tuition on saxophone from Budd Johnson. Joined "family" band led by W.H. Young (Lester's father) in Campbell Kirkie, New Mexico, toured with the band for three months and began specialising on sax. With Gene Coy's Band on alto and tenor (early 1930), then on tenor with Jap Allen's Band (summer 1930). With Blanche Calloway from April 1931. Then joined Bennie Moten from Winter 1931-32 until early 1933 (including visit to New York). Then joined Willie Bryant's orchestra.

  • Krin Gabbard
    SAVING IT TWICE: Preserving jazz in documentaries, compilation films, and short subjects by Krin Gabbard Some of the best jazz artists were never filmed under the circumstances they themselves might have chosen. More often than not they were presented as grotesques and exotics. When we think of Cab Calloway wildly waving his arms and his hair, or of Fats Waller vigorously exercising his eyebrows and lips, we are recalling the creations of filmmakers for whom such antics made for compelling entertainment. Nevertheless, jazz enthusiasts should be grateful for any film of jazz musicians, if only because so little of it exists. Much can be learned from those bits of film that preserve the images of the artists along with their music. Our pleasure in these images can be greatly enhanced when we know where they come from and why there were made. 1. Documentaries The jazz documentary was born at the same time that the jazz biopic was in its death throes. In the 1950s, when jazz became known as an art music rather than as America's popular music, it began to seem a worthy subject for documentation on film. On the one hand, jazz became an art with a history worth preserving, especially with the new technologies and ideologies that helped make the documentary cinema a thriving art form in the 1950s. On the other hand, jazz had begun to encourage the same "ethnographic" impulses as other exotic phenomena such as the daily habits of eskimos in the Arctic Circle or the love lives of Polynesians on the island of Bora Bora.
