jazzweek.com • November 20, 2006 JazzWeek 8 Industry Q&A Part II: Joe Fields, HighNote Records et al.

s promised, the second part of this Joe Fields inter- view is a stroll down memory lane. Here we learn Ahow bossa nova became a radio craze, what it was like to work for folks with names like Creed, Juggy, and Bogart (Neil Bogart epitomized the rise and fall of ‘70s record label decadence for many). Being the class guy he is, Joe is good to everyone. He also weighs in on the impor- tance of radio then as well as now. – Tad Hendrickson

Where does radio come into the equation for you? Radio is very important to me. I was a promotion man; I did sales and all the rest; I did singles and all of that – I picked the singles, and sold them and worked the bloody things. When did you get into radio? That’s a different story. I was working for Lee Hartstone and London Records at the time, which was an offshoot of Decca, which was a major label in England at the time. They picked up all these smaller labels in England and were able to distribute them in America. I heard there was a job at London and I went in and applied and they hired me. Then he showed me my office and I know why he hired me: It was so small it was even too small for me. [Laughs] I had good time doing it, I worked An- thony Newley … When was this? Oh God. I’m good with the story but when we get to dates… it was around the time that Roy Orbison was in his heyday at Monument [mid-‘60s]. I would pick out those singles, get them re-mastered and sell them, in effect, to the 20 or so distributors over the phone and then do Joe Fields accepts the 2005 Duke Dubois Humani- the promotion over the phone.
