2.10.23 Lunchtime drawing: I’ve been listening to a lot of jazz recently, especially recordings by Rudy van Gelder who had a studio in New Jersey just over the GW Bridge, so here’s a super quick sketch of the Village Vanguard in it’s environment on 7th Ave. A while back I made a painting of its neon sign.

1001: The Original Dixieland Jazz Band

Apparently the first recorded jazz that became popular. This album is a series of recordings made through the years 1917-1921 and that couldn't be a truer reflection of the sound. This album is time travel at it's finest. You get a real sense of how it must have felt in that time to hear this music for the first time through one of these recordings.

I have appreciation for this in the grand scope of jazz history, but after two songs I wanted to poke my finger through my eye to my brain and swish it around a little so that I could feel a different kind of pain. My personal tastes reflect a very small window for listening to this specific album and this specific sound.

noteworthy tracks: Livery Stable Blues, Tiger Rag, Bow Wow Blues (My Mama Treats Me Like A Dog)

"Given that its notability rides on the presence of these two titans, both are in short supply. You don’t hear a lot from either Baker or Davis, who seems to be unsure of how to fit together, circling one another like two prize fighters looking for their jabs." i do my best Downbeat 1962 impersonation on my review of Chet Baker's Live In Bologna, 1962 featuring Miles Davis.

In celebration of #BlackHistoryMonth, #BlackMusic and the 60th Anniversary of Amiri Baraka's revolutionary book "Blues People," the @apollotheater presents "The Blues and Its People" Saturday, February 18!Tickets and info:

Reposted from @apollotheater “Where the music goes, that’s where the people go. The music reflects the people.” – #AmiriBaraka

From field hollers to gospel to the blues and jazz, the evolution of the Black experience in America can be traced through the evolution of Black music.

Amiri Baraka explored these parallels in his book “Blues People”. In honor of the work’s 60th anniversary, we’re thrilled to present an immersive evening of original music featuring composer/trumpeter #RussellGunn @russellgunn and his Royal Krunk Jazz Orkestra, vocalist #JazzmeiaHorn @artistryofjazzhorn, drummer #WeedieBraimah @weediebraimah, poet #jessicaCaremoore @jessicacaremoor, and more in a 24-piece ensemble!

Celebrate the expanse of Black creativity at “The Blues and Its People” for one night only on The Apollo stage. bit.ly/Apollo_BluesPeople

Sounds Of Blackness

[jazzmusicbox]

In 1950, pianist Hazel Scott hosted her own network show, The Hazel Scott Show. For 45 minutes every week, she played piano and interacted with her audience. It was the first TV show ever to be hosted by an African American, and it received outstanding ratings. Later that year, right-wing journal Red Channels put out a list of actors, musicians and others in entertainment industry suspected of being Communist sympathisers. The list included Leonard Bernstein, Orson Welles and Hazel Scott. She volunteered to testify before the House Un-American Activities and strongly criticised the blacklisting process. A week later, her talk show was cancelled and she moved to Paris. Here, she is performing "Takin' A Chance" in 1943. #jazz #jazzmusicbox #hazelscott #piano #jazzpiano #jazzarchives #jazzhistory #jazzvideo #jazzstandard #show #live #chance #leonardbernstein #orsonwelles #blacklivesmatter #music #musicvideo #legend #jazzlover #instagram #instamood #saturday #instagood #instamoment #paris #talkshow #performance #takinachance https://www.instagram.com/p/CUP09dQsSwW/?utm_medium=tumblr

NEW ORLEANS FATHERS OF JAZZ

A rare and original WWI New Orleans invitation card for the Grand Ball given by the Original Pullman Pleasure Club at the G0-Operative Hall.   Now look at the Music Band for the event !!  

The Famous Pettit & Duson Jazz Band , no other than  Buddie Petit and Frankie Duson ! If you are a Jazz collector you should recognize this names . The band in the picture is the Eagle Band .

The Eagle Band was a very important band in the history of Jazz. When Buddy Bolden went insane in 1907, Frankie Duson took over Buddy Bolden’s Band and renamed it the Eagle Band after the Eagle Saloon at Perdido and South Rampart Street in the Storyville district of New Orleans.

Band Picture:  The Eagle Band 1916. Left to Right: Big Eye Nelson, Chinee Foster, Frankie Dusen, Buddy Petit, Lorenzo Staulz, Dandy Lewis.

In 1917 Dusen, Buddy Petit and Wade Whaley went to Los Angeles to join Jelly Roll Morton at Baron Long’s night club in Watts. When they arrived Morton ridiculed them so much for their down home clothes and ways, that Dusen and Petit soon returned to New Orleans, angry and swearing to kill Morton if he ever returned to the city.

Wadley stayed on and went on to play with Kid Ory. Ironically, Morton’s verse about Dusen in his 1939 recording of Buddy Bolden’s Blues has given Dusen a touch of immortality, but it doesn’t paint a very flattering picture of him. The lyrics are as follows:

Thought I heard Frankie Dusen shout Gal give me the money or I’m gonna beat it out I mean the money like I explain you, I’m gonna beat it out Cause I heard Frankie Dusen say

Dusen started another band when he returned to the city. In 1918 he played with the band on the riverboat S.S. Capitol. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s he played occasionally with Louis Dumaine’s Orchestra and he received money from the WPA during the Depression. Dusen never recorded and he died in poverty sometime around 1940.

Item No. E4983-65

of 2022. LOTS of jazz, LOTS of classical, old favourites and new releases. Continuing to try and hear as much of the best music ever recorded, towards the goal of being the best music journalist, critic, musicologist and music historian i can be. Worth noting, a big chunk of these are the albums i reviewed in 2022, as evidence of "why music journalism/criticism matters", as i listen to the albums i review over and over and over again. Happy New Years to you all! See anything you like on this list? What were some albums you particularly dug in 2022? And any special requests for albums i should write about in 2023? . . . . . #charts #top100 #2022music #jazz #jazzhistory #musichistory #musicology #classicalmusic #indie #indierock #hauntology #hauntologist #cooljazz #westcoastjazz #benwebster #broadcast #blackoxorkestar #davidbowie #divinesymmetry #low #charlieparker #johncoltrane #johnfahey #bebop #ambientmusic #cranes #jsimpson #albumreviews #musicjournalism #musiccriticism https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm41hqKvw43/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
