But that is no excuse. Long before I put myself in a position to be asked to write regularly about jazz—first, in 1968–69, for a magazine (Down Beat) and then, from 1977 to 1988, for a newspaper (the Chicago Trib- une)—I wanted to be put there, in part because of a notion I’d begun to have about the role that someone who writes about jazz necessarily occupies. Unlike the two other chief new arts—photography and mo- tion pictures—that arose or coalesced at some point during the nineteenth century, jazz does not have a primarily technological basis, though it would come to benefit greatly from technolog- ical means of dissemination (the phonograph record and radio). Instead, jazz’s primary “material” is the quintessentially histor- ical set of human circumstances under which it arose—the col- lision/interpenetration of particular peoples under particular conditions in a new and expanding nation that had a form of government based on particular principles. And perhaps it is that inaugural immersion in the flux of history that has made jazz’s further artistic development so immediate, visible, and in- tense—as though this art were compelled to give us a running account of its need to be made and the needs its making served. Of course, the same could be said of any other burst of novel artistic activity—say, painting and sculpture in fifteenth-century ix x PREFACE Florence. And the wonder is that in relation to jazz we are in effect a bunch of fifteenth-century Florentines. Unavoidably im- plicated in what the artists make, we can, if we are alert and self-aware, quiz ourselves as to what necessities their various makings might fulfill, in us and in themselves. It was that real- ization, that sense of at once grasping and being in the grip of this music’s perpetual intimate narrative, that made me eager to talk about it. I have called this collection Jazz in Search of Itself for two reasons. First, the frequent unity in jazz of performer and com- poser, and the typical jazz circumstance of composition/perfor- mance in the moment, seems to me to place the ongoing ex- pression of individual instrumental and vocal personality at or near the heart of the music. Second, there is the matter of the music’s own “self” or “selves,” the shapes its collective expres- sion has taken and will go on to take. In the first decade of jazz’s second century, it would seem that “search” and “self” are terms that fit. My thanks to colleagues, friends, and mentors Bob Chatain, Harriet Choice, the late Ross Feld, Bill Kirchner, John Litweiler, Terry Martin, Doug Mitchell, Dan Morgenstern, Chuck Nessa, and the late Martin Williams, and, of course, to the musicmak- ers. INTRODUCTION: ENACTMENT IN SOUND It seems clear that when Ernest Ansermet wrote “I couldn’t say if these artists make it a duty to be sincere” in his famous 1919 article about Will Marion Cook’s Southern Syncopated Orches- tra and its “extraordinary clarinet virtuoso,” Sidney Bechet, he meant that sincerity of some special sort was among the virtues he found there. This was shrewd, even prescient, as was the comparison Ansermet drew between those musicians, especially Bechet, and the “men of the seventeenth and eighteenth centu- ries” who cleared the way for Haydn and Mozart by making “expressive works [out] of dance airs.” That the creation of “dance airs” was the literal role, socially and economically, of much jazz upthrough the end of the Swing Era almost goes without saying. And yet this was not the only role the music had to play, as Ansermet’s emphasis on sincerity and expressiveness may suggest. Draw a line as early as the mid- 1920s, and in the large body of remarkable music that already exists a strikingly individual personality is at work in almost every case—Bechet, King Oliver, Jelly Roll Morton, Louis Arm- strong, Bix Beiderbecke, Johnny Dodds, Frank Teschemacher, Ma Rainey, Bessie Smith, James P. Johnson, Fats Waller, Earl Hines, et al. It could be argued that many of these musi- cians (certainly Armstrong and Smith) were inherently self- dramatizing, larger-than-life entertainers working in and for a marketplace that urged them to aggressively develop their skills 1 2 INTRODUCTION: ENACTMENT IN SOUND along individual lines. But the weight of biographical and re- corded evidence suggests that the dramatized selves these artists projected to the public were very much in tune with the selves they actually possessed, while other jazz artists who were not of a bold, demonstrative stripe (Beiderbecke, for one) also placed a definite personal stamp on their work and were, like their less reticent counterparts, valued for doing so. Valued by whom and in what ways, to what ends and to what effect? Valued by their colleagues, first and foremost. Al- lowing for considerable differences in role and temperament among the mid-1920s stalwarts mentioned above, there is a strong sense of a common project being worked upon, of tech- nical and expressive resources being vigorously explored and shared.

We do not confine ourselves to the work of English students, nor are we at pains to be littered with the Illustrious Dead and Dying. Our claim has been one of uncompromising independence: therefore not a line in these pages has been written by any but degreeless students or young graduates. It has been our object to gather all and none but the not yet ripe fruits of art, science and philosophy in the university. We did not wish so much that our articles should be sober and guarded as that they should be stimulating and lively and take up a strong line. We were prepared in fact to give ourselves away. But we know that Cambridge is painfully well-balanced just now (a sign, perhaps of anxiety neurosis) and so we were prepared also to find, as the reader will find, rather too guarded and sensible a daring. Perhaps we will ripen into extravagance. Contributions for the second number should be send to W. Empson of Magdalene College. We five are acting on behalf of the contributors, who have entrusted us with this part of the work.

  • Jimmy Raney Thesis: Blurring the Barlines By: Zachary Streeter
    Jimmy Raney Thesis: Blurring the Barlines By: Zachary Streeter A Thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Jazz History and Research Graduate Program in Arts written under the direction of Dr. Lewis Porter and Dr. Henry Martin And approved by Newark, New Jersey May 2016 ©2016 Zachary Streeter ALL RIGHT RESERVED ABSTRACT Jimmy Raney Thesis: Blurring the Barlines By: Zach Streeter Thesis Director: Dr. Lewis Porter Despite the institutionalization of jazz music, and the large output of academic activity surrounding the music’s history, one is hard pressed to discover any information on the late jazz guitarist Jimmy Raney or the legacy Jimmy Raney left on the instrument. Guitar, often times, in the history of jazz has been regulated to the role of the rhythm section, if the guitar is involved at all. While the scope of the guitar throughout the history of jazz is not the subject matter of this thesis, the aim is to present, or bring to light Jimmy Raney, a jazz guitarist who I believe, while not the first, may have been among the first to pioneer and challenge these conventions. I have researched Jimmy Raney’s background, and interviewed two people who knew Jimmy Raney: his son, Jon Raney, and record producer Don Schlitten. These two individuals provide a beneficial contrast as one knew Jimmy Raney quite personally, and the other knew Jimmy Raney from a business perspective, creating a greater frame of reference when attempting to piece together Jimmy Raney.

THE ILLUSORY DISTINCTION BETWEEN EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY AND EQUALITY OF RESULT DAVID A. STRAUSS* I. INTRODUCTION "Our society should guarantee equality of opportunity, but not equality of result." One hears that refrain or its equivalent with increasing frequency. Usually it is part of a general attack on gov- ernment measures that redistribute wealth, or specifically on af- firmative action, that is, race- and gender-conscious efforts to im- prove the status of minorities and women. The idea appears to be that the government's role is to ensure that everyone starts off from the same point, not that everyone ends up in the same condi- tion. If people have equal opportunities, what they make of those opportunities is their responsibility. If they end up worse off, the government should not intervene to help them.1 In this Article, I challenge the usefulness of the distinction be- tween equality of opportunity and equality of result.

  • Temporal Disunity and Structural Unity in the Music of John Coltrane 1965-67
    Listening in Double Time: Temporal Disunity and Structural Unity in the Music of John Coltrane 1965-67 Marc Howard Medwin A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: David Garcia Allen Anderson Mark Katz Philip Vandermeer Stefan Litwin ©2008 Marc Howard Medwin ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT MARC MEDWIN: Listening in Double Time: Temporal Disunity and Structural Unity in the Music of John Coltrane 1965-67 (Under the direction of David F. Garcia). The music of John Coltrane’s last group—his 1965-67 quintet—has been misrepresented, ignored and reviled by critics, scholars and fans, primarily because it is a music built on a fundamental and very audible disunity that renders a new kind of structural unity. Many of those who study Coltrane’s music have thus far attempted to approach all elements in his last works comparatively, using harmonic and melodic models as is customary regarding more conventional jazz structures. This approach is incomplete and misleading, given the music’s conceptual underpinnings. The present study is meant to provide an analytical model with which listeners and scholars might come to terms with this music’s more radical elements. I use Coltrane’s own observations concerning his final music, Jonathan Kramer’s temporal perception theory, and Evan Parker’s perspectives on atomism and laminarity in mid 1960s British improvised music to analyze and contextualize the symbiotically related temporal disunity and resultant structural unity that typify Coltrane’s 1965-67 works.

    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.
