Murder in Montmartre: the Leon Crutcher Affair by Anthony Baldwin with Original Artwork by Peter Poplaski
Murder in Montmartre: The Leon Crutcher Affair by Anthony Baldwin with original artwork by Peter Poplaski opening the place on 2nd September 1925 in a blaze of publicity. The group photo was taken at Le Pavillon’s first-anniversary outdoor gala the following season. The hiring of musicians and entertainers was handled by Max-Roger-Louis Lolivrel, one of the project’s directors and former owner of Rector’s Club at 45 Rue des Acacias in Paris, where Syd and Harry Roy’s Crichton Lyricals had cut their Continental teeth in 1923-24. Dance acts and choreography at Le Pavillon were organized by veteran hoofer Harry Pilcer, formerly dance director at Rector’s. Max Lolivrel was even pushy enough to hang Rector’s trademark signboard of two drunken dogs above Le Pavillon’s garden stage. Rector’s itself had been closed since the spring of 1925, when Max had filed for bankruptcy in the Paris courts. However, nobody seemed to care. These were heady days. Leon Allen Crutcher (b. Trenton Falls, NJ, 10 Dec 1902) and drummer George Hill Evans (b. Wilmington, NC, 8 July 1896) had been regulars at Rector’s in Paris since their arrival from New York in 1924. Leon had no particular family background n September 2nd, 1926, almost exactly ninety years in music: his father was a New York postman and his mother ago, a society photographer in the French city of an apartment-house janitress. With his good looks and Biarritz took the remarkable action shot of the Palm OBeach Six reproduced on this edition’s cover page. -

Frank “Big Boy” Goudie on the West Coast Vol
Frank “Big Boy” Goudie on the West Coast Vol. 1: Big Boy’s Blues, 1958-62 A Big Life It is a mistake of jazz history that Frank “Big Boy” Goudie (1899-1964) has been almost completely overlooked until recently. This collection and related web pages aim to help correct that oversight, examining his last and most personal chapter in San Francisco, CA 1956-64. Tall and handsome, Goudie was a cultured gentleman with advanced musical skills fluent in French and Portuguese. He had played jazz, swing, dance, latin and ethnic music on three continents. Almost 6’ 5” and at least 250 pounds, he was massive and broad. Powerfully built he remained strong and fit into his sixties. Over the previous half century Frank Goudie’s career had paralleled the history of jazz itself: origins in Louisiana, migration to Europe, transition to Swing, integration with Latin music, Goudie’s professional photo image, Paris 1939. and the New Orleans revival. Traveling the world this master musician lived four distinct musical lives: New Orleans and the Southwest 1918-24: A journeyman jazz cornet player by about 1920, Goudie moved to Texas with his family and went on the road traveling the Southwestern states and northeastern Mexico. Paris and Europe 1924-56: Frank arrived in Paris about the same time as Josephine Baker, becoming very popular. Focusing on alto saxophone and later tenor, he easily made the transition to swing. For almost three decades “Big Boy” recorded, worked, played and jammed with the jazz elite of Europe except during WW II. South America 1939-45: Stuck on the Southern continent during the war, Goudie played dance music, big band, samba-swing and jazz when he could. -

ARSC Journal, Spring 1993 71 Sound Recording Reviews · Leading a Major American Orchestra, Deciding Instead to Concentrate on a New Career As a Concert Pianist
SOUND RECORDING REVIEWS Sergei Rachmaninoff-The Complete Recordings. Sergei Rachmaninoff, pianist and conductor, with the Philadelphia Orchestra, Leopold Stokowski and Eugene Ormandy, conductors. Recorded 1919-1942. RCA Victor Gold Seal 61265-2 (10 CDs, ADD). Forty years after his death, Sergei Rachmaninoff remains one of the most significant musicians of the twentieth century. As a composer, Rachmaninoff has been maligned severely over the years, indeed, even during his own lifetime, as an outmoded holdover from a bygone romantic tradition. Yet being outmoded is not sufficient justification for dismissing a composer's work, and Rachmaninoff certainly was not the first composer to be considered dated in his own lifetime. It is worth remembering that J. S. Bach also was considered "old-fashioned" near the end of his life. Rachmaninoff was certainly Bach's equal as a composer (he has much company) but he easily ranks with a large number of second-string, not second-rate, composers whose works occupy a significant place in the repertoire, including Respighi, Holst, and Scriabin. Rachmaninoff's Preludes and Etudes-Tableux are hardly a re-hashing of the solo piano writing of Chopin, Schumann, and Liszt. They are strikingly original works whose musical challenges are as significant as the more obvious technical demands. Of all the romantic pianist-composers, Rachmaninoff produced the most extensive output of music for piano and orchestra. Unlike Chopin, whose orchestral writing in his Concerti is quite inept, Rachmaninoff was a highly skillful orchestrator. This is not only evident in his Second Symphony, The Isle ofthe Dead, and The Bells, but also in his operas, which remain virtually unknown in the western hemisphere. -
