JUKEBOX JAZZ by Ian Muldoon* ______
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. -

Jacques Butler “Jack”
1 The TRUMPET of JACQUES BUTLER “JACK” Solographer: Jan Evensmo Last update: July 7, 2019 2 Born: April 29, 1909 Died: 2003 Introduction: There is no doubt: Jacques Butler was well known in the Norwegian jazz community, because he was visiting Oslo in 1940 and recorded one 78 rpm. together with our own best jazz performers. So, we grew up with him! History: Raised in Washington, D.C., studied dentistry at Howard University, began playing trumpet at the age of 17. Moved to New York City, worked with Cliff Jackson in the late 1920s, with Horace Henderson (1930-1). Led own band (in New York and on tour) 1934-35, worked with Willie Bryant, then to Europe. Joined Willie Lewis band (late 1936), worked mainly with Willie Lewis until 1939, then toured Scandinavia from June 1939. Was in Norway at the commencement of World War II, returned to the U.S.A. in April 1940. Led own band, worked with Mezz Mezzrow (spring 1943), with Art Hodes (summer 1943- 44), with Bingie Madison (1945), with bassist Cass Carr (summer 1947). Worked in Toronto, Canada (1948). Returned to Europe in late 1950, led own band on various tours, then played long residency at ‘La Cigale’, Paris, from 1953 until returning to the U.S.A. in 1968. Still plays regularly in New York (at the time of writing). Appeared in the film ‘Paris Blues’ (1961). (ref. John Chilton). 3 JACK BUTLER SOLOGRAPHY SAMMY LEWIS & HIS BAMVILLE SYNCOPATORS NYC.

Ernest Elliott
THE RECORDINGS OF ERNEST ELLIOTT An Annotated Tentative Name - Discography ELLIOTT, ‘Sticky’ Ernest: Born Booneville, Missouri, February 1893. Worked with Hank Duncan´s Band in Detroit (1919), moved to New York, worked with Johnny Dunn (1921), etc. Various recordings in the 1920s, including two sessions with Bessie Smith. With Cliff Jackson´s Trio at the Cabin Club, Astoria, New York (1940), with Sammy Stewart´s Band at Joyce´s Manor, New York (1944), in Willie ‘The Lion’ Smith´s Band (1947). Has retired from music, but continues to live in New York.” (J. Chilton, Who´s Who of Jazz) STYLISTICS Ernest Elliott seems to be a relict out of archaic jazz times. But he did not spend these early years in New Orleans or touring the South, but he became known playing in Detroit, changing over to New York in the very early 1920s. Thus, his stylistic background is completely different from all those New Orleans players, and has to be estimated in a different way. Bushell in his book “Jazz from the Beginning” says about him: “Those guys had a style of clarinet playing that´s been forgotten. Ernest Elliott had it, Jimmy O´Bryant had it, and Johnny Dodds had it.” TONE Elliott owns a strong, rather sharp, tone on the clarinet. There are instances where I feel tempted to hear Bechet-like qualities in his playing, probably mainly because of the tone. This quality might have caused Clarence Williams to use Elliott when Bechet was not available? He does not hit his notes head-on, but he approaches them with a fast upward slur or smear, and even finishes them mostly with a little downward slur/smear, making his notes to sound sour. -

Jazz It Up, with Music Technology!
Jazz It Up, with Music Technology! 10 Tom Atkinson Central Missouri State University As the song goes , “Don’t know much about His -to-ry, don’t know much about Tech-no-lo-gy!” But what we do know is that music technology now plays a crucial role in most schools. Fully integrating this technology requires much greater awareness. From Mozart to Madonna, technology has forever changed the field of music. Although accessing music through the Web and through digital storage devices has been remarkably significant, perhaps to an even greater extent, music synthesizers and editing software have dramatically changed the very nature of music. Technology provides powerful aids to composing, notating, editing, and performing music that even elementary school students can learn to use. Cakewalk Sonar (Image 1) represents affordable state-of-the-art digital recording software that compares to expensive studio facilities. There's a lot of flexibility built into Sonar to achieve a variety of musical forms including recording audio, creating MIDI files, looping and sequencing, and adding effects. Any style of music can be created using Sonar's MIDI and audio systems and there are also DX instruments and automated effects. Band-in-a-Box (Image 2), described as an intelligent accompaniment software, is a powerful and creative music composition tool for exploring and developing musical ideas with near-instantaneous feedback. It contains features to display notation, enter lyrics, create melodies, add harmonization, and program a variety of musical styles. The Soloist generates professional quality solos over any chord progression. The Melodist creates songs from scratch with chords, melodies, intros, solos, and even a title.
