KEVIN MAHOGANY Big Band (Lightyear) If the majesty of Kevin Mahogany has somehow eluded you through the dozen years and 11 albums that have accumulated since his dynamic 1993 debut, Double Rainbow, the Kansas City-born baritone's richly polished Big Band (Lightyear/Mahogany) is an ideal introduction. For long-standing Mahogany connoisseurs, it's simply continued proof that he remains in an exalted class all his own. Mahogany's big, basso Joe Williams-ness is particularly well-suited to bold 'n' brassy orchestral backing, provided principally by the Frank Montooth Jazz Orchestra (on half of the album's 10 tracks) with single appearances by the likes of the Big City Swing Jazz Band and his hometown Kansas City Boulevard Big Band, sturdy enough to support his multishaded robustness. Standards are the order of the day here, with Mahogany serving up a bracing "Moonlight in Vermont," a swingin' "It Don't Mean a Thing" set to a light Afro-Cuban beat and a scintillating, suede-soft, samba treatment of "Three Little Words." Mahogany teams with the sizzling Veronica Martell for a sinfully dusky "It's Alright With Me" and shows off his tremendous balladeer skills on "Dear Ruby" and a muted, three-in-the-morning "One for My Baby" gently wrapped in velvety tenor sax work by guest soloist Peter Christlieb. Like Williams, Mahogany is a master of buttercream blues, as evidenced by a towering treatment of Harry "Sweets" Edison and Jon Hendricks' "Centerpiece" complete with a stunner of a scat chorus that suggests the technical wizardry of Mel Torme blended with the cunning intelligence of Cassandra Wilson. Finishing with stylish flourish, Mahogany joins forces with pianist James Williams' for an urbane "Don't Get Around Much Anymore" that echoes the scotch 'n' sable Nat "King" Cole version (from the Billy May-led big band tour de force Just One of Those Things) in its grand elegance. -Christopher Loudon Agency Jim Wadsworth Productions Steve Frumkin 330.405.9075 [email protected] Jim Wadsworth 216.721.5624 [email protected].

My name is Anthony Brown, and with Ken Kimery we are conducting the Smithsonian National Endowment for the Arts Oral History Program interview with Mr. Benny Golson, arranger, composer, elder statesman, tenor saxophonist. I should say probably the sterling example of integrity. How else can I preface my remarks about one of my heroes in this music, Benny Golson, in his house in Los Angeles? Good afternoon, Mr. Benny Golson. How are you today? Golson: Good afternoon. Brown: We’d like to start – this is the oral history interview that we will attempt to capture your life and music. As an oral history, we’re going to begin from the very beginning. So if you could start by telling us your first – your full name (given at birth), your birthplace, and birthdate. Golson: My full name is Benny Golson, Jr. Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The year is 1929. Brown: Did you want to give the exact date? Golson: January 25th. For additional information contact the Archives Center at 202.633.3270 or [email protected] 2 Brown: That date has been – I’ve seen several different references. Even the Grove Dictionary of Jazz had a disclaimer saying, we originally published it as January 26th.

Kevin Mahogany's Kansas City Revue Featuring the Music of Big Joe Turner
Kevin Mahogany Biography Mahogany’s arrival in the early 90’s on the jazz scene created an unprecedented stir and resurgence of vocal jazz. Noted writer Whitney Balliett said, “New female jazz singers seem to appear regularly, but for a long time the space behind Joe Williams, Mel Tormé, and Ray Charles has been empty…there is little (Mahogany) cannot do. He has absorbed Billy Eckstine, Williams, Charles, Al Hibbler, Betty Carter, and Leo Watson. He can sing the blues and he can sing ballads. He can scat. He can sing Monk and Gillespie and John Lewis and Miles Davis, and he can sing soul songs and novelty songs. And he is a startling gospel singer who shouts, hums, bends notes in two, growls, and locks every syllable to five or six notes." Born in 1958 in Kansas City, Missouri, Mahogany grew up listening to the richly diverse musical sounds of his hometown, where jazz and blues had reigned supreme in the early 1900s. He studied clarinet and piano in his formative years and was tutored at the Charlie Parker Foundation. Working regularly in the Eddie Baker New Breed Orchestra in Kansas City, Mahogany was an accomplished baritone saxophonist by the age of 12 and was teaching clarinet by the time he was 14. Mahogany developed a keen interest in vocals while studying music at Baker University, where he established a jazz choir and also led two groups focusing on R&B and classic soul. He graduated with a BFA in Music, English, and Drama in 1981. Mahogany recorded three well-received albums with Enja, the independent German label, before signing with Warner Brothers in 1995.
