  • 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.

  • Gerry Mulligan Discography
    GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.

The lessons we can learn from his work and his life have been deemed immeasurable. As the Philadelphia Clef Club Of Jazz and Performing Arts prepares to celebrate his having been part of our family, we thought the following might give Lee some new talking points as a sage at this age. Lee Morgan Lesson 1 : WHY LIMIT YOURSELF ??? “Originally interested in the vibraphone, he soon showed a growing enthusiasm for the trumpet. Morgan also knew how to play the alto saxophone ”. Lee Morgan Lesson 2 ::: DON’T JUST HANG AROUND OTHER MUSICIANS; MAKE IT YOUR BUSINESS TO TOURTOUR,, RECORD, INSPIRE & MATURE WITH THEM. “His primary stylistic influence was Clifford Brown , who gave the teenager a few lessons before he joined the Dizzy Gillespie Big Band at 18, He began recording for Blue Note Records in 1956, Lee also recorded for a variety of labels, including Blue Note, Vee-Jay, Roulette, Jazzland and Trip eventually recording 25 albums as a leader for the company with more than 250 musicians ”, A SERIOUSLY SMALL SAMPLING of this list includes: Hank Mobley John Coltrane Art Blakey Benny Golson Wayne Shorter Bobby Timmons Jymie Merritt Billy Hart Grachan Moncur III Freddie Hubbard Wynton Kelly Paul Chambers Grant Green Herbie Hancock Reggie Workman Billy Higgins John Gilmore Stanley Turrentine Jackie McLean Ron Carter Joe Henderson McCoy Tyner Lonnie Liston-Smith Elvin Jones Jack Wilson Reuben Wilson Larry Young Clifford Jordan Andrew Hill Billy Harper Bennie Maupin Marold Mabern Mickey Rokey Freddie Waits Oscar Peterson Lee Morgan Lesson 333: NO MATTMATTERER HOW GREAT THE INFLUENCEINFLUENCE,, DON’T LET THEM INFLUENCE YOU WITH DANGEROUS, SSTUPIDTUPID HABITS LIKE DRUGSDRUGS.DRUGS ..
