Thanks to all for your support in 2013. We had a very successful year with great concerts: the Cyrus Chestnut tribute to Dave Brubeck, violinist Christian Howes, legendary 5721 Jonestown Road vocalist Freddy Cole, the Kenton Alumni Big Band, drummer Clarence Penn’s Monk tribute, and Harrisburg PA 17112 dynamic pianist Anthony Wonsey; our best Jazz Camp ever with a great faculty and 70 students; TEL: 717-540-1010 membership in CPFJ reached 600 - a level not seen for over 15 years; WEB: We have been awarded a generous grant from the Dauphin County Commissioners that will enable www.friendsofjazz.org us to present a concert on September 5th at Fort Hunter Park as part of the Dauphin County Jazz EMAIL: & Wine Festival. The Festival’s regular schedule is on September 6th & 7th and our added [email protected] evening will bring mainstream jazz to the event (which has been predominantly “smooth” jazz) and will serve as the first concert in our annual Fall Concert Series. For those of you who haven’t Steve Rudolph attended the Festival previously, there is a very large tent that protects the audience and stage area Executive Director from the elements and the concerts go on rain or shine. Sponsor, Corporate, and Life Members of CPFJ will get free tickets to the entire weekend and there will be wine tasting and food available Sheila Ross for purchase during our concert. There are many details to be worked out yet but we are grateful Office Manager the Commissioners for their support of CPFJ. CPFJ Board of Directors: Our thanks to the Music Committee and chairman Tim Warfield, Jr. for arranging the great lineup of artists for the Spring Concert Series. We are again grateful to the Shearer Family Fund and Scott Shearer for underwriting the Series - without their help we would be unable to present these Dr. William Anderson artists in Central PA. Please attend these events and remember that we maintain the highest (Membership) musical standards - we are sure that you will be amazed and inspired by the musicians we present Troy Ballard even if you haven’t previously heard of them. Jazz musicians have always struggled with attaining (Marketing) notoriety, but it has become even harder for them to find an audience in this day and age. In Gerald Bennet earlier times, jazz musicians were featured in major TV shows, movies and on the many radio (President stations nationwide that hosted jazz programming. Currently there are no commercial jazz radio Grants Chair) stations left in the U.S. - they’ve all been acquired by large corporations (Clear Channel and Eugene Borza others) that are beholden to their stock holders. Even if the jazz stations were making profits prior (Youth Committee) to their purchase, the profits weren’t large enough for the corporations. These stations have been Ben Goldsborough changed to CNN, hip-hop, talk radio, country and western or other more “popular” programming. (Youth Committee Chair) Even major colleges have sold their signals to commercial interests and jazz programming has Dr. Paul Haidet perished - WDUQ (Duquesne Univ.) in Pittsburgh was one of the recent 24-hour-a-day jazz (Newsletter) programmers to disappear from the airwaves as colleges exchange their radio channels for multi- Keith Mohler million dollar deals. You have probably noticed that no jazz artists have received their Grammy (Marketing) awards on television for over twenty years Jazz, Latin and classical Grammy’s are given at a Tonya Mowery separate ceremonies in order for the more commercially popular forms of music to have more time (Sectretary) for exposure in the TV program. If you want to learn about jazz and the artists that are keeping Keith Thomas the flames burning, you must make an effort and search for information. Several magazines (Jazz (1st Vice President Inside, Downbeat, JazzTimes and others) still publish and there are many online sites that have Concessions) great information about new recordings and the current artists. Our concerts feature the best Amy Walizer available players on the international scene and we hope you will help these deserving players gain (Treasurer) the attention they need in order to continue developing their music and maintaining their Tim Warfield careers....so, get out of your chair and go out often to support live jazz!

Good afternoon, Bill, accompanied by his wife, Nancy. This interview is conducted by Anthony Brown with Ken Kimery. Bill, if we could start with you stating your full name, your birth date, and where you were born. Holman: My full name is Willis Leonard Holman. I was born in Olive, California, May 21st, 1927. Brown: Where exactly is Olive, California? Holman: Strange you should ask [laughs]. Now it‟s a part of Orange, California. You may not know where Orange is either. Orange is near Santa Ana, which is the county seat of Orange County, California. I don‟t know if Olive was a part of Orange at the time, or whether Orange has just grown up around it, or what. But it‟s located in the city of Orange, although I think it‟s a separate municipality. Anyway, it was a really small town. I always say there was a couple of orange-packing houses and a railroad spur. Probably more than that, but not a whole lot.

  • Discography Updates (Updated May, 2021)
    Discography Updates (Updated May, 2021) I’ve been amassing corrections and additions since the August, 2012 publication of Pepper Adams’ Joy Road. Its 2013 paperback edition gave me a chance to overhaul the Index. For reasons I explain below, it’s vastly superior to the index in the hardcover version. But those are static changes, fixed in the manuscript. Discographers know that their databases are instantly obsolete upon publication. New commercial recordings continue to get released or reissued. Audience recordings are continually discovered. Errors are unmasked, and missing information slowly but surely gets supplanted by new data. That’s why discographies in book form are now a rarity. With the steady stream of updates that are needed to keep a discography current, the internet is the ideal medium. When Joy Road goes out of print, in fact, my entire book with updates will be posted right here. At that time, many of these changes will be combined with their corresponding entries. Until then, to give you the fullest sense of each session, please consult the original entry as well as information here. Please send any additions, corrections or comments to http://gc-pepperadamsblog.blogspot.com/, despite the content of the current blog post. Addition: OLIVER SHEARER 470900 September 1947, unissued demo recording, United Sound Studios, Detroit: Willie Wells tp; Pepper Adams cl; Tommy Flanagan p; Oliver Shearer vib, voc*; Charles Burrell b; Patt Popp voc.^ a Shearer Madness (Ow!) b Medley: Stairway to the Stars A Hundred Years from Today*^ Correction: 490900A Fall 1949 The recording was made in late 1949 because it was reviewed in the December 17, 1949 issue of Billboard.
