    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. Wearing an official RAAF beret in the style of Thelonious Monk or Dizzy Gillespie, however, was. Thelonious Monk wearing his beret the way Dave (Bebop) wore his… PHOTO CREDIT WILLIAM P GOTTLIEB _________________________________________________________ *Ian Muldoon has been a jazz enthusiast since, as a child, he heard his aunt play Fats Waller and Duke Ellington on the household piano. At around ten years of age he was given a windup record player and a modest supply of steel needles, on which he played his record collection, consisting of two 78s, one featuring Dizzy Gillespie and the other Fats Waller.

  • ROCK'n'roll's 1ST DECADE Week
    ROCK'N'ROLL’S 1ST DECADE Week One: The Roots of Rock Recommended Listening: The Delmore Brothers, Freight Train Boogie (Ace, 1993). Country-boogie songs from 1946-51 by this brother duo, whose more uptempo material was not only some of the finest country music of the era, but an important building block of rockabilly and early rock & roll. Fats Domino, The Early Imperial Singles 1950-1952 (Ace, 1996 & 1997). Thorough collections of the first few years or so of singles by the most important early New Orleans rock'n'roll star, whose singles of the early 1950s weren't all that different from the pop hits he had after rock took off. The Drifters, Let the Boogie-Woogie Roll: Greatest Hits 1953-1958 (Atlantic, 1988). Perhaps the most consistent, and certainly one of the most important, of the doo wop groups that had their first success prior to 1955. This has their mid-1950s R&B hits, some of them featuring lead singer Clyde McPhatter. The Drifters who had numerous early soul hits in the late 1950s and early 1960s had entirely different personnel, and were linked to this version of the group only by the trademark name. Bill Haley & His Comets, Rock the Joint! The Original Essex Recordings 1951-1954 (Rollercoaster, 1992). Bill Haley & His Comets were the first white band to fuse rhythm and blues with country music into something recognizable as rock'n'roll, and were doing so for four years before "Rock Around the Clock" became the first huge rock hit. This has those early recordings, including one from 1952 ("Rock the Joint") quite similar to "Rock Around the Clock," and his first single to become a Top Twenty pop hit, 1953's "Crazy, Man, Crazy." John Lee Hooker, The Legendary Modern Recordings 1948- 1954 (Flair/Virgin, 1993).

  • Bill Haley Declared As the Battle Raged Over the Lyrics of |Those Newfangledrhythm-And-Blues- Based Pop Hits
    | ‘We steer clear o fanything suggestive, ’ ‘ Bill Haley declared as the battle raged over the lyrics of |those newfangled rhythm-and-blues- based pop hits. Haley’s version of ' ‘Shake, R a ttle and R o ll’ ‘ was one o f the tunes in question, since it happened to be sweeping the nation. Of course, most of the good stuff from the lyrics o f Big Joe Turner’s original rendition had been removed or changed - lines like ' ‘Well, you wear low dresses/The sun comes shining through/I can’t believe my eyes/That all this belongs to you. ’ ’ As Haley explained, ‘ ‘We take a lot o f care with lyrics because we don’t want to offend anybody. The m usic is the m ain thing. ’ ’ He was right about the music: it was the way he played the tune that made ‘ ‘Shake, Rattle and Roll’ ’ a landmark success. Haley was BOBBY “ BLUE” BLAND trying to streamline the beat, to make it easy for an audience to dance, clap and sing along. In songs he composed himself, like “Crazy, Man, Crazy, ’ ’ Haley deliberately used simple BOBBY BARIN phrases o f teen slang to g et his message across better. Haley had hit the road at age nineteen with a country and western combo called the Downhomers. He then became musical director o f the Saddlemen, performing on the air with them in a regular gig at a Chester, Pennsylvania, radio station. He tried to bring d ifferen t sounds into the Saddlem en’s m usic, attempting to blend, in his words, ‘ ‘country and western, Dixieland and the old-style rhythm and blues.
