Bright Tunes Music V. Harrisongs Music
420 F.Supp. 177 United States District Court, S. D. New York. BRIGHT TUNES MUSIC CORP., Plaintiff, v. HARRISONGS MUSIC, LTD., et al., Defendants. No. 7 1 Civ. 602. | Aug. 31, 1976. | As Amended Sept. 1, 1976. OPINION AND ORDER OWEN, District Judge. This is an action in which it is claimed that a successful song, My Sweet Lord, listing George Harrison as the composer, is plagiarized from an earlier successful song, He’s So Fine, composed by Ronald Mack, recorded by a singing group called the “Chiffons,” the copyright of which is owned by plaintiff, Bright Tunes Music Corp. He’s So Fine, recorded in 1962, is a catchy tune consisting essentially of four repetitions of a very short basic musical phrase, “sol-mi-re,” (hereinafter motif A),1 altered as necessary to fit the words, followed by four repetitions of another short basic musical phrase, “sol-la-do-la-do,” (hereinafter motif B).2 While neither motif is novel, the four repetitions of A, followed by four repetitions of B, is a highly unique pattern.3 In addition, in the second use of the motif B series, there is a grace note inserted making the phrase go “sol-la-do-la-re-do.”4 My Sweet Lord, recorded first in 1970, also uses the same motif A (modified to suit the words) four times, followed by motif B, repeated three times, not four. In place of He’s So Fine’s fourth repetition of motif B, My Sweet Lord has a transitional passage of musical attractiveness of the same approximate length, with the identical grace note in the identical second repetition.5 The harmonies of both songs are identical.6 *179 George Harrison, a former member of The Beatles, was aware of He’s So Fine. -
The Once and Future King? Ravi Coltrane Quartet in Flux Savoy Jazz SVY 17444 (2005)
The Once and Future King? Ravi Coltrane Quartet In Flux Savoy Jazz SVY 17444 (2005) Last year the editors of Jazz Times yielded to temptation and ran the eye-catching headline “COLTRANE RETURNS!” to cover the new release by keyboardist Alice Coltrane. Several thousand readers groaned. So it usually goes with the heirs and scions of the jazz world: A marketing dream becomes a musical disappointment. As befits a quintessentially democratic art, jazz “dynasties” are few and of relatively modest distinction (no offense meant to, for example, Mtume James Heath, Ellis Marsalis or Von Freeman). The birth-children of Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis and Charlie Parker steered away from musical pursuits. A decade ago if asked to point to a jazz family with a truly influential parent and child we might have started and ended with Dewey and Joshua Redman (and even that may be a stretch). John Coltrane’s living example was not what influenced his son to take up jazz: John died when Ravi was wearing diapers. Nor was the son’ s embrace of the father’s chosen tools, the tenor and soprano saxophone, pre-ordained; the younger Coltrane did not succumb to the horns’ siren songs until he was in his late teens. Ravi Coltrane consciously chose, as a young adult, to walk the path which his father blazed for so many. While he certainly benefitted as a young artist from the goodwill which his family brought with such early employers as Jack DeJohnette, Pharoah Sanders and particularly Elvin Jones, Mr. Coltrane made the most of the opportunities presented to him. -

Although freely improvised, the music of Pocket Aces is consciously compositional, given to bouts of form, groove, and crafty melodies. Distillation of ideas with a premium on space and tone provides a strong coherence as the trio navigates the familiar and unfamiliar. HOFBAUER/ROSENTHANL QUARTET, HUMAN RESOURCES (CNM033) - RELEASE DATE NOV. 9 THE HOFBAUER/ROSENTHAL QUARTET, unites four imaginative improvisors from Boston’s eclectic jazz scene. There’s a non-hierarchal notion of the ensemble in this project, an ideal of equality and a selfless determination built into every musical inclination, as they unabashedly swing at the intersection between the clarity and control of bop and the brash freedom of the avant-garde. ERIC HOFBAUER QUARTET, PREHISTORIC JAZZ VOL. 4: REMINISCING IN TEMPO - OUT NOW. Reimagining of the rarely heard 1935 long form Duke Ellington composition. "It's a musical jungle gym for the guitar fan, a close listening to Hofbauer's note choices and abstract connections to the song's structure is absolutely required listening." - Paul Acquaro, Free Jazz Blog.

Miguel Zenón Quartet
Jimmy Katz Jimmy MIGUEL ZENÓN QUARTET Miguel Zenón Alto Sax Luis Perdomo Piano Hans Glawischnig Bass Henry Cole Drums PROGRAM There will be no intermission. Saturday, February 11 @ 7 PM and 9:30 PM Prince Theatre Part of the African Roots, American Voices series. 16/17 SEASON 5 PROGRAM NOTES Miguel Zenón’s new album, Típico, is above all a celebration of his longstanding quartet. His previous releases have augmented the core unit with additional instrumentalists as Zenón looked outward to explore various aspects of his Puerto Rican heritage. This new album feels more intimate. Its focus stays closer to home, with nods to Zenón’s own personal and professional life as it zeroes in on what makes his band unique. Zenón’s quartet has been developing a common language for more than a decade. Pianist Luis Perdomo and bassist Hans Glawischnig have been with Zenón since the turn of the millennium; drummer Henry Cole joined the band in 2005. Their language is thoroughly fluent in modern jazz, with instrumental prowess. The dialect of rhythmic and harmonic complexity they’ve created together through the years is distinctive. ABOUT THE ARTISTS Miguel Zenón (Alto Sax) Multiple Grammy® nominee and Guggenheim and MacArthur Fellow Miguel Zenón represents a select group of musicians who have masterfully balanced and blended the often contradictory poles of innovation and tradition. Widely considered as one of the most groundbreaking and influential saxophonists of his generation, he has also developed a unique voice as a composer and as a conceptualist, concentrating his efforts on perfecting a fine mix between Latin American folkloric music and jazz. -

Most Like Lee (Morgan) 6:46 Recorded on September 8, 1965 TV viewers of the 1965 World Series, if they weren't in the kitchen grabbing a beer between innings, most likely heard a finger-popping blues behind the automobile commercial. It was "The Sidewinder" by Lee Morgan. The use of jazz in TV commercials has both good and bad aspects. Here the music was being played faithfully to its fashion and, as such, was representative of Lee Morgan's new success. If the music from Morgan's albums subsequent to "The Sidewinder" has not been utilized by Mad Ave., it has been heard on the radio -- AM and FM -- and on many a home music system. These albums have enabled him to form his own group which has played in nightclubs of some of the eastern seaboard's larger cities. Lee, who had been with Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers from 1958 into 1961, rejoined Blakey in 1964 but 1966 found him on his own. In a June engagement at Slugs', tenor saxophonist Hank Mobley and drummer Billy Higgins were members of Morgan's group. Here, they are part of his recording group along with three others who are no strangers to their session-mates or Blue Note listeners: Jackie McLean, Herbie Hancock and Larry Ridley. -
Seven Lee Morgan Lessons Seven Lee Morgan Lessons
SEVEN LEE MORGAN LESSONS One of Philadelphia’s most talented offerings would have been 75 years old come July 10 th , 2013. The lessons we can learn from his work and his life have been deemed immeasurable. As the Philadelphia Clef Club Of Jazz and Performing Arts prepares to celebrate his having been part of our family, we thought the following might give Lee some new talking points as a sage at this age. Lee Morgan Lesson 1 : WHY LIMIT YOURSELF ??? “Originally interested in the vibraphone, he soon showed a growing enthusiasm for the trumpet. Morgan also knew how to play the alto saxophone ”. Lee Morgan Lesson 2 ::: DON’T JUST HANG AROUND OTHER MUSICIANS; MAKE IT YOUR BUSINESS TO TOURTOUR,, RECORD, INSPIRE & MATURE WITH THEM. “His primary stylistic influence was Clifford Brown , who gave the teenager a few lessons before he joined the Dizzy Gillespie Big Band at 18, He began recording for Blue Note Records in 1956, Lee also recorded for a variety of labels, including Blue Note, Vee-Jay, Roulette, Jazzland and Trip eventually recording 25 albums as a leader for the company with more than 250 musicians ”, A SERIOUSLY SMALL SAMPLING of this list includes: Hank Mobley John Coltrane Art Blakey Benny Golson Wayne Shorter Bobby Timmons Jymie Merritt Billy Hart Grachan Moncur III Freddie Hubbard Wynton Kelly Paul Chambers Grant Green Herbie Hancock Reggie Workman Billy Higgins John Gilmore Stanley Turrentine Jackie McLean Ron Carter Joe Henderson McCoy Tyner Lonnie Liston-Smith Elvin Jones Jack Wilson Reuben Wilson Larry Young Clifford Jordan Andrew Hill Billy Harper Bennie Maupin Marold Mabern Mickey Rokey Freddie Waits Oscar Peterson Lee Morgan Lesson 333: NO MATTMATTERER HOW GREAT THE INFLUENCEINFLUENCE,, DON’T LET THEM INFLUENCE YOU WITH DANGEROUS, SSTUPIDTUPID HABITS LIKE DRUGSDRUGS.DRUGS .. -
