    JUKEBOX JAZZ by Ian Muldoon* ____________________________________________________ n 1955 Bill Haley’s Rock Around the Clock was the first rock and roll record to become number one on the hit parade. It had made a stunning introduction in I the opening moments to a film called Blackboard Jungle. But at that time my favourite record was one by Lionel Hampton. I was not alone. Me and my three jazz loving friends couldn’t be bothered spending hard-earned cash on rock and roll records. Our quartet consisted of clarinet, drums, bass and vocal. Robert (nickname Orgy) was learning clarinet; Malcolm (Slim) was going to learn drums (which in due course he did under the guidance of Gordon LeCornu, a percussionist and drummer in the days when Sydney still had a thriving show scene); Dave (Bebop) loved the bass; and I was the vocalist a la Joe (Bebop) Lane. We were four of 120 RAAF apprentices undergoing three years boarding school training at Wagga Wagga RAAF Base from 1955-1957. Of course, we never performed together but we dreamt of doing so and luckily, dreaming was not contrary to RAAF regulations.

  • Saxophone Colossus”—Sonny Rollins (1956) Added to the National Registry: 2016 Essay by Hugh Wyatt (Guest Essay)*
    “Saxophone Colossus”—Sonny Rollins (1956) Added to the National Registry: 2016 Essay by Hugh Wyatt (guest essay)* Album cover Original album Rollins, c. 1956 The moniker “Saxophone Colossus” aptly describes the magnitude of the man and his music. Walter Theodore Rollins is better known worldwide as the jazz giant Sonny Rollins, but in addition to Saxophone Colossus, he has also been given other nicknames, most notably “Newk” because of his resemblance to baseball legend Don Newcombe. To use a cliché, Saxophone Colossus best describes Sonny because he is bigger than life. He is an African American of mammoth importance not only because he is the last major remaining jazz trailblazer, but also because he helped to inspire millions of fans and others to explore the religions and cultures of the East. A former heroin addict, the tenor saxophone icon proved that it was possible to kick the drug habit at a time in the 1950s when thousands of fellow musicians abused heroin and other narcotics. His success is testimony to his strength of character and powerful spirituality, the latter of which helped him overcome what musicians called “the stick” (heroin). Sonny may be the most popular jazz pioneer who is still alive after nearly seven decades of playing bebop, hard bop, and other styles of jazz with the likes of other stalwart trailblazers such as Thelonious Monk, Dizzy Gillespie, Bud Powell, Clifford Brown, Max Roach, and Miles Davis. He follows a tradition begun by Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, and Charlie Parker. Eight months after overcoming his habit at a drug rehabilitation facility called “the farm” in Lexington, Kentucky, Sonny made what the jazz cognoscenti rightly contend is his greatest recording ever—ironically entitled “Saxophone Colossus”—which was recorded on June 22, 1956.

  • Metaphorical Thoughts on the Birth of Bebop. by Renzo Carli* We Are in the Early Forties of Last Century. Let's Go Together To
    Metaphorical thoughts on the birth of bebop. by Renzo Carli* An environment. We are in the early forties of last century. Let’s go together to a nightclub on New York’s West 118th street, in the middle of Harlem: Minton’s Playhouse, housed in a room of the Hotel Cecil. The club takes its name from the owner, Henry Minton, an ex-saxophonist. In 1940, Minton handed over the running to Teddy Hill, a musician who had led a few orchestras in the past and was well liked by black jazzmen. Hill had a brilliant idea to make the place popular: have a small in-house group (Clarke on drums, Monk, as yet unknown, on the piano, Fenton on bass and Guy on trumpet); any of the numerous habitués who wanted to, could bring their instrument with them and play. It is a Monday night and already in the room, filled with cigarette smoke, a strange music can be heard, different from traditional jazz. We go inside: there are a few musicians, all black, involved in a very lively jam session; they are surrounded by a dense crowd of attentive listeners, all strictly black and mostly jazz players. There is a lot of smoke in the room; the musicians are playing in what seems a discordant way, with a very rapid succession of notes and chords that sound sharp but at the same time enthralling. We are at Minton’s on a Monday night, and we are there deliberately; it is the night off for the big New York swing orchestras that play dance music for the whites, and they can have a drink at Minton’s, listen to some extraordinary jam sessions, but also emerge from their passivity and throw themselves into the fray, improvising solos, developing the themes offered with daring new variations.

  • History of Jazz Tenor Saxophone Black Artists
    HISTORY OF JAZZ TENOR SAXOPHONE BLACK ARTISTS 1940 – 1944 SIMPLIFIED EDITION INTRODUCTION UPDATE SIMPLIFIED EDITION I have decided not to put on internet the ‘red’ Volume 3 in my Jazz Solography series on “The History of Jazz Tenor Saxophone – Black Artists 1940 – 1944”. Quite a lot of the main performers already have their own Jazz Archeology files. This volume will only have the remainders, and also auxiliary material like status reports, chronology, summing ups, statistics, etc. are removed, to appear later in another context. This will give better focus on the many good artists who nevertheless not belong to the most important ones. Jan Evensmo June 22, 2015 INTRODUCTION ORIGINAL EDITION What is there to say? That the period 1940 - 1944 is a most exciting one, presenting the tenorsax giants of the swing era in their prime, while at the same time introducing the young, talented modern innovators. That this is the last volume with no doubt about the contents, we know what is jazz and what is not. Later it will not be that easy! That the recording activities grow decade by decade, thus this volume is substantially thicker than the previous ones. Just wait until Vol. 4 appears ... That the existence of the numerous AFRS programs partly compensates for the unfortunate recording ban of 1943. That there must be a lot of material around not yet generally available and thus not listed in this book. Please help building up our jazz knowledge base, and share your treasures with the rest of us. That we should remember and be eternally grateful to the late Jerry Newman, whose recording activities at Minton's and Monroe's have given us valuable insight into the developments of modern jazz.

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.

  • Cab-Calloway
    “The Harlem Renaissance: Rebirth of African-American Arts” Westbury Arts Remembers Cab Calloway 1907 – 1994 Bandleader, songwriter, composer, singer, actor and author Photograph of Cab Calloway by Carl Van Vechten National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution, © Carl Van Vechten Trust Cab Calloway’s persona and performance style symbolized the spirit of night life in Harlem during its “Renaissance.” His stage act has been described “lively and energetic,” and “injecting his band's performances with a festive exuberance.” Calloway became one of the most popular entertainers of the 1930s and '40s, in no short measure due to his charm, energy, and his eccentric dancing. Born in Rochester, New York on Christmas Day in1907 and named Cabell “Cab” Calloway III, the second of Cabell and Eulalia Reed Calloway's six children. His father, Cab Senior, practiced law and sold real estate. Young Cab enjoyed singing in church, but he was expected to follow in his father's footsteps and study law. However, his older sister Blanche was appearing as a singer with a show called Plantation Days in Chicago, and after high school graduation, Calloway appealed to her for advice. She sent him a train ticket and helped him find a job as a singer, too. This was the start of what became a 67-year career in show business. By 1925 Calloway was working as a drummer with the Sunset Cafe band in Chicago. While performing at the Sunset Club, Calloway met Louis Armstrong, who became his mentor and taught him the art of scat singing (improvised jazz singing in which the voice is used in imitation of an instrument).
