  • Straight No Chaser
    Ch 3 : Straight no chaser Si Round Midnight est le plus populaire des standards monkiens, un des plus utilisés en jam-session, est sans doute Straight no chaser. Le fait qu’il s’agisse d’un blues en 12 mesures (souvent en Bb) n’est sans doute pas étranger à cette popularité. Et pourtant, pour bien jouer Straight no chaser, il faut une certaine concentration : en effet, non seulement, Monk y fait usage de pas mal de chromatismes, mais la manière dont la phrase qui sous-tend la composition est placée par rapport au temps et à la mesure est pour le moins singulière. A l’écoute, tout semble couler de source, mais quand il s’agit de mettre ça en place, c’est une toute autre histoire. Le titre du morceau est déjà du Monk : quand il commandait un whisky, Monk insistait pour qu’on le lui serve Straight no chaser, càd sec, sans accompagnement aidant à le faire descendre. On commence par la première version gravée par Monk, en 1951 pour Blue Note, avec le trio renforcé de Sahib Shihab et Milt Jackson : c’est Art Blakey qui ouvre les hostilités : écoutez la citation par Monk d’un autre de ses standards : Thelonious Monk Quintet : Straight no chaser Sahib Shihab (as) Milt Jackson (vbes) Thelonious Monk (pn) Al Mc Kibbon (cb) Art Blakey (dms) rec NY 23 juillet 1951 A côté des 1001 versions live enregistrées par Monk, on notera celle, asseez singulière, qu’il enregistrée en 1957 pour l’album avec Gerry Mulligan. Le tempo est plus lent qu’à l’accoutumée.

  • The Recordings
    Appendix: The Recordings These are the URLs of the original locations where I found the recordings used in this book. Those without a URL came from a cassette tape, LP or CD in my personal collection, or from now-defunct YouTube or Grooveshark web pages. I had many of the other recordings in my collection already, but searched for online sources to allow the reader to hear what I heard when writing the book. Naturally, these posted “videos” will disappear over time, although most of them then re- appear six months or a year later with a new URL. If you can’t find an alternate location, send me an e-mail and let me know. In the meantime, I have provided low-level mp3 files of the tracks that are not available or that I have modified in pitch or speed in private listening vaults where they can be heard. This way, the entire book can be verified by listening to the same re- cordings and works that I heard. For locations of these private sound vaults, please e-mail me and I will send you the links. They are not to be shared or downloaded, and the selections therein are only identified by their numbers from the complete list given below. Chapter I: 0001.

  • Prestige Label Discography
    Discography of the Prestige Labels Robert S. Weinstock started the New Jazz label in 1949 in New York City. The Prestige label was started shortly afterwards. Originaly the labels were located at 446 West 50th Street, in 1950 the company was moved to 782 Eighth Avenue. Prestige made a couple more moves in New York City but by 1958 it was located at its more familiar address of 203 South Washington Avenue in Bergenfield, New Jersey. Prestige recorded jazz, folk and rhythm and blues. The New Jazz label issued jazz and was used for a few 10 inch album releases in 1954 and then again for as series of 12 inch albums starting in 1958 and continuing until 1964. The artists on New Jazz were interchangeable with those on the Prestige label and after 1964 the New Jazz label name was dropped. Early on, Weinstock used various New York City recording studios including Nola and Beltone, but he soon started using the Rudy van Gelder studio in Hackensack New Jersey almost exclusively. Rudy van Gelder moved his studio to Englewood Cliffs New Jersey in 1959, which was close to the Prestige office in Bergenfield. Producers for the label, in addition to Weinstock, were Chris Albertson, Ozzie Cadena, Esmond Edwards, Ira Gitler, Cal Lampley Bob Porter and Don Schlitten. Rudy van Gelder engineered most of the Prestige recordings of the 1950’s and 60’s. The line-up of jazz artists on Prestige was impressive, including Gene Ammons, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Eric Dolphy, Booker Ervin, Art Farmer, Red Garland, Wardell Gray, Richard “Groove” Holmes, Milt Jackson and the Modern Jazz Quartet, “Brother” Jack McDuff, Jackie McLean, Thelonious Monk, Don Patterson, Sonny Rollins, Shirley Scott, Sonny Stitt and Mal Waldron.

  • Primary Sources: an Examination of Ira Gitler's
    PRIMARY SOURCES: AN EXAMINATION OF IRA GITLER’S SWING TO BOP AND ORAL HISTORY’S ROLE IN THE STORY OF BEBOP By CHRISTOPHER DENNISON A thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers University, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements of Master of Arts M.A. Program in Jazz History and Research Written under the direction of Dr. Lewis Porter And approved by ___________________________ _____________________________ Newark, New Jersey May, 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Primary Sources: An Examination of Ira Gitler’s Swing to Bop and Oral History’s Role in the Story of Bebop By CHRISTOPHER DENNISON Thesis director: Dr. Lewis Porter This study is a close reading of the influential Swing to Bop: An Oral History of the Transition of Jazz in the 1940s by Ira Gitler. The first section addresses the large role oral history plays in the dominant bebop narrative, the reasons the history of bebop has been constructed this way, and the issues that arise from allowing oral history to play such a large role in writing bebop’s history. The following chapters address specific instances from Gitler’s oral history and from the relevant recordings from this transitionary period of jazz, with musical transcription and analysis that elucidate the often vague words of the significant musicians. The aim of this study is to illustratethe smoothness of the transition from swing to bebop and to encourage a sense of skepticism in jazz historians’ consumption of oral history. ii Acknowledgments The biggest thanks go to Dr. Lewis Porter and Dr.

  • Jazz-Pianister I 50'Erne
    Jazz-pianister i 50’erne, side 1 Monk, Thelonious (Sphere) (b Rocky Mount, NC, 10 Oct 1917; d Englewood, NJ, 17 Feb 1982). American jazz pianist and composer. Although he remained long misunderstood and little known, both his playing and his compositions had a formative influence on modern jazz. 1. Life. When Monk was four his family moved to New York. In the early 1940s he became house pianist at Minton’s Playhouse in Harlem, where he helped to formulate the emerging bop style. In 1944 he recorded with the Coleman Hawkins Quartet, and in the same year his collaboration with Cootie Williams and lyricist Bernie Hanighen, the well-known tune ’Round Midnight (also known as Round about Midnight), was recorded by Williams (Hit). By this time Monk was playing at the Spotlite on 52nd Street with Dizzy Gillespie’s orchestra. Between 1947 and 1952 he made recordings for Blue Note: Evidence, Criss Cross and a bizarre arrangement of Carolina Moon (1952, BN) are regarded as the first characteristic works of his output, along with the recordings he made as a sideman for Charlie Parker in 1950, which included Bloomdido and My Melancholy Baby (both 1950, Mer./Clef). [not available online] In 1952 Monk acquired a contract from Prestige Records, with which he remained associated for three years. Although this was perhaps the leanest period in his career in terms of live performances, in October 1954 he recorded an album with Sonny Rollins and, in a memorable session with the Miles Davis All Stars on Christmas Eve, he gave perhaps his finest solo performance on Bags’ Groove (1954, Prst.).

  • Iii E. the Jazz Component: the Fantasy Collection
    III E. THE JAZZ COMPONENT: THE FANTASY COLLECTION III E1. The LPs For many serious researchers into the changes and developments in jazz during the late 1940s and the early 1950s it is the LP albums which are part of the collection that will be of major interest. In particular Bill Belmont, as he assembled the Fantasy collection for the Archives, was able to locate a selection of the earliest 10” Prestige LPs which had been almost forgotten in the Fantasy warehouse. It should be emphasised, however, that these are not the original Prestige releases, which now sell for thousands of dollars on the collector’s market. To satisfy a small core of serious jazz enthusiasts, most of them in Japan, Fantasy manufactured facsimiles of many of the most important LPs in their catalog. Although the new albums are imprinted with an inconspicuous notice “Manufactured from master owned by Fantasy, Inc.” they are in every other respect identical with the originals. They are an invaluable time capsule of this crucial period of jazz’s development - and in their often primitive albums covers and minimal presentation they suggest the marginal nature of jazz as this period began. Also, in their LP format the modern listener has an insight into the programming concepts that led to the presentation of the material on the LP’s two sides. THE PRESTIGE 10”ALBUMS These have been reproduced with the original one color covers and - in the beginning - simply catalog listings on the back of the cover. The album notes, generally by Ira Gitler, begin after the first few examples.

  • Blue Note Label Discography Was Compiled Using Our Record Collections, Schwann Catalogs from 1949 to 1982, a Phono-Log from 1963
    Discography Of The Blue Note Label Blue Note was started in New York City in 1938 by Alfred W. Lion. Blue Note recorded jazz only. The following history of the Blue Note record label is from the Blue Note Website (bluenote.com). “In 1925, 16-year old Alfred Lion noticed a concert poster for Sam Wooding's orchestra near his favorite ice-skating arena in his native Berlin, Germany. He'd heard many of his mother's jazz records and began to take an interest in the music, but that night his life was changed. The impact of what he heard live touched a deep passion within him. His thirst for the music temporarily brought him to New York in 1928 where he worked on the docks and slept in Central Park to get closer to the music. On December 23, 1938, Lion attended the celebrated Spirituals to Swing concert at Carnegie Hall. The power, soul and beauty with which boogie woogie piano masters Albert Ammons and Meade Lux Lewis rocked the stage gripped him. Exactly two weeks later, on January 6 at 2 in the afternoon, he brought them into a New York studio to make some recordings. They took turns at the one piano, recording four solos each before relinquishing the bench to the other man. The long session ended with two stunning duets. Blue Note Records was finally a reality.
