  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  Brought to you through the good offices of Rae Ann Berry, another brief trip to San Diego (November 27, 2009) to visit with the Yerba Buena Stompers. Make yourself to home.  Coffee?  Campari?  Seltzer?  A great deal of music strikes me as pleasant and competent, but I need to hear it only once.  “That’s ...

• LISTEN TO GEORGE WETTLING!

  
  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  The history of jazz is full of musicians, both reliable and inventive, who don’t become stars.  Drummer George Wettling is one of the most neglected, although he had a recording career that lasted more than thirty years, finding him alongside Louis Armstrong, Jack Teagarden, Eddie Condon, Bud Freeman, Milt Hinton, ...

• JIM GOODWIN, HOT MAN

  
  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  The much-loved jazzman Jim Goodwin died this year just shy of his sixty-fifth birthday.  I’ve written elsewhere on this blog about his talents, but what struck me when I first heard him on record was his surpassing heat, a pushing intensity that drove the musicians around him.  Red Allen had it, as did Roy ...

• THAT’S LIKE IT OUGHT TO BE

  
  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  My title comes from a Jelly Roll Morton record from his great Victor period — but it’s a close approximation of the phrase that came into my mind when I watched and heard this great small band from the recent San Diego Dixieland Jazz Festival, with these November 27, 2009 video clips coming to us through the ...

• SOMETHING FOR LESTER

  
  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  Lester Young was born in 1909 and died before he reached fifty, so when we celebrate his hundredth birthday, it is with the wonder that he existed at all — and the sadness that his feelings were often “bruised,” to use his evocative word. Just recently (Nov. 27, 2009) the drummer and swing master Hal Smith ...

  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  John Gill — hot guitarist, banjoist, trombonist, singer — has a deep love and understanding of Bing Crosby, as you can hear on his Stomp Off CD, LEARN TO CROON, where he and a wonderful New York band (his “Sentimental Serenaders”) pay heartfelt tribute to Bing. I’m delighted that SFRaeAnn captured John and ...

• A LITTLE JAM! (Nov. 29, 2009)

  
  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  I remember that once an interviewer, trying to find out whether Ruby Braff was playing a cornet or a trumpet, asked him, “What is that?” pointing at his horn.  Ruby, characteristically, responded at top speed, but in italics: “ That?  That is a musical instrument.”   Ruby would have approved of the ...

  NYTimes | Iraq’s first stab at opening its oil industry to foreign investment ended in disappointment at an auction in June in which most companies declined to bid. But last month many of those same companies — including Exxon Mobil and Occidental Petroleum, the first American companies to reach production ...

  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  Last Sunday at The Ear Inn, November 22, 2009, the compact, eloquent quartet — The Ear Regulars or the Earregulars, depending on what region you come from — performed two lovely Ralph Rainger ballads, PLEASE and WITH EVERY BREATH I TAKE.   (In case you are new to this scene, The Ear Inn is at 326 Spring Street ...

• CHRIS DAWSON: STRIDE FOR CHRISTMAS!

  
  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  Yesterday I received my copy of pianist Chris Dawson’s first solo CD, STRIDIN’ THROUGH CHRISTMAS, and it’s a wow.  But perhaps you’d like to read some expert testimony: Let’s get my personal prejudices out of the way.  To me, “Christmas music” tends either to be religious or fairly limited pop ...

  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  Jon-Erik Kellso already has a deep repertoire of songs, as listeners know.  I was especially delighted when he decided to add Ralph Rainger’s PLEASE to his list, which he did last Sunday night (November 22, 2009) at the Ear Inn.  The EarRegulars were an especially compatible quartet: Jon-Erik on trumpet, Matt ...

  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  Leroy “Sam” Parkins, clarinetist, raconteur, and enthusiastic friend of this blog, died in Israel on November 18, 2009: he was 83.  Sam loved beautiful photographs, so I offer this sunset, taken from a window on the Upper West Side, in his memory. I am an unabashed jazz matchmaker: I tried to get Whitney ...

• OH, “PLEASE”!

  
  Jazz Lives — Authority: 132
  In honor of Ralph Rainger, Leo Robin, Bing Crosby, Adam Keller, John Gill, and Jon-Erik Kellso – here is the sheet music for PLEASE.  It’s my dream to hear world-class jazz musicians, deep in Swing Romanticism, make this song their own.  Unfortunately, the folio doesn’t have the lyrics — but perhaps ...
