Ory's Creole Trombone - Turk Murphy/Climax JB 1979


Ory's Creole Trombone - Turk Murphy/Climax JB 1979

Climax Jazz Band in a TV performance in 1979 featuring trombonist Turk Murphy.
Climax Jazz Band with Bob Erwig cnt, Jim Buchmann clt, Geoff Holmes tbne, Jack Vincken bjo, Chris Daniels bass and Max Littlejohns drums

I started playing trumpet in Holland in 1951 and I became interested in jazz. 'Ory's Creole trombone' was a tune (first recorded in 1927 by Louis Armstrong's Hot Five with composer Kid Ory on trombone) which always intrigued me.
Trumpetplayer Bunk Johnson was also an early influence. In the mid fifties I came across a recording of Bunk with members of the west coast revival band of Lu Watters from San Francisco who recorded in 1944 Ory's Creole Trombone as well.
I still have the LP on the Good Time Jazz label (L-12024) in my collection.The trombonist was Turk Murphy.

Many years later after having moved to Canada I joined Toronto's Climax Jazz Band in 1971 and our band did well. When we were invited to play several TV shows hosted by famous vibraphone player Peter Appleyard it was of course, especially for me, a great honour to have, some 25 years after I heard him for the first time, Turk Murphy being a guest on one of Peter's shows with our band. To my amazement Turk suggested to try Ory's Creole Trombone. Fortunately we had the tune in our repertoire and even Peter, on the vibes, was familiar with the tune. We tried it once and what you see and hear is the first take with all the excitement of playing together for the first time and with the feeling that it works. Turk took the tempo somewhat faster then we were used to, but.... what a treat it was.
After it was all done we had lunch with Turk. It was a great day.Turk Murphy, a superb jazz trombonist and a wonderful person.

( I just got an email from the leader/trombonist of Peruna Jazzmen in Denmark:

Hej Bob
Ory´s Creole trombone with Turk Murphy
You write it was first recorded in 1926 with Armstrongs Hot Five.
I think you know, but forgot it was recorded, june 1922.
Spike´s Seven Pods Of Pebber / Ory´s Sunshine Orchestra.
All The Best
Arne Hojberg

I did not know and thank you for making me aware.Now I have to search and try to find a copy of that first recording which, i found out, even has Mutt Carey on cornet)

****************************************************************************



Edward "Kid" Ory (December 25, 1886 -- January 23, 1973) was a jazz trombonist and bandleader. He was born in Woodland Plantation near LaPlace, Louisiana.

Ory started playing music with home-made instruments in his childhood, and by his teens was leading a well regarded band in South-East Louisiana. He kept La Place as his base of operations due to family obligations until his 21st birthday, when he moved his band to New Orleans, Louisiana.

He had one of the best-known bands in New Orleans in the 1910s, hiring many of the greats, including cornetists Joe "King" Oliver, Mutt Carey, and Louis Armstrong; and clarinetists Johnny Dodds and Jimmie Noone.

In 1919 he moved to Los Angeles, one of a number of New Orleans musicians to do so at about that time, and he recorded there in 1922 with a band including Mutt Carey, clarinetist (also a pianist) Dink Johnson, and string bassist Ed Garland. (Garland and Carey were longtime associates who were still with Ory during his 1940s comeback.) In 1925, Ory moved to Chicago, where he was very active, working and recording with Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton, "King" Oliver, Johnny Dodds, and many others.

Oscar Klein (born January 5, 1930 in Graz, Austria; died December 12, 2006 in Baden-Württemberg) was an Austrian born jazz trumpeter who also played clarinet, harmonica, and swing guitar. His family fled the Nazis when he was young. He became known for "older jazz" like swing and Dixieland. He played with Lionel Hampton, Joe Zawinul, and others. In 1996 he was honored by then President Thomas Klestil.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_Klein

Fats Waller (born Thomas Wright Waller on May 21, 1904, died December 15, 1943) was an American jazz pianist, organist, composer and comedic entertainer.

A skilled pianist -- widely recognized as a master of stride piano -- Waller was one of the most popular performers of his era, finding critical and commercial success in his homeland and in Europe. Waller was also a prolific songwriter, with many songs he wrote or co-wrote still known to modern audiences, such as "Honeysuckle Rose", "Ain't Misbehavin'" and "Squeeze Me". Fellow pianist and composer Oscar Levant dubbed Waller "the black Horowitz" in a favorable comparison to Russian pianist Vladimir Horowitz[1] A prolific composer of novelty swing tunes in the 1920s and 30s, Waller sold many of his compositions for relatively small sums, and as they became hits, other songwriters had already claimed them as their own. Thus many standards are alternatively, controversially attributed to Waller.

Someday Sweetheart - Hodes Art 1968(Eddie Condon)


Someday Sweetheart Hodes Art 1968
With a piano introduction by session leader Art Hodes this groups jams through "Someday Sweetheart". We see and hear Smokey Stover on trumpet, Toni Parenti on clarinet and J.C. Higginbotham on trombone. Eddie Condon is this performance as well. They must have found a banjo for him. Usually he is not heard playing the 4 string guitar. He is fairly quiet on the banjo as well. Bassist Rails Wilson and I don't know the drummer.

ottimo l'assolo del trombettista Smokey Stover

Tyree Glenn : Jeepers Creepers


Jeepers Creepers Glenn Tyree 1958

Tyree Glenn, who had the unusual double of trombone and vibes, was an important asset at various times to both Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong. Glenn became a longtime member of the Cab Calloway Orchestra (1939-1946). Glenn visited Europe with Don Redman's big band (1946). During his association with Ellington (1947-1951), he was an effective wah-wah trombonist in the Tricky Sam Nanton tradition and Ellington's only vibraphonist, being well-featured on the "Liberian Suite." During the 1950s, Glenn worked in the studios, led his quartet at the Embers, and freelanced in swing and Dixieland settings. Other than some European dates in 1947, Glenn's only extensive opportunity to record was for Roulette (1957-1958 and 1961-1962). During 1965-1968, he toured the world with Louis Armstrong's All-Stars. After leaving Armstrong, Tyree Glenn led his own group during his last few years.

Rose Room-Albert Nicholas


***************************************
Rose Room Nicholas Albert 1958

Albert Nicholas at the Cannes Jazz Festival, France July 1958
Nicholas clarinet, Joe Turner piano, Arvell Shaw bass and J.C.Heard drums
Better known for his clarinet playing, but did also play saxophones, Albert Nicholas was born in New Orleans on May 27th, 1900, and died in Basle, Switzerland on September 3rd, 1973.
One of the mellowest of New Orleans clarinettists, he played with all the early stars in his home town, served for three years in the U.S. Navy, where his comrades included Zutty Singleton and Charles Bolden. Was back in New Orleans in 1923 and lead his own band which included Luis Russell and Barney Bigard. By early 1925 all three were working with King Oliver's Dixie Syncopaters, but Nicholas eventually left to go to the Far East with Jack Benny Carter's band. Rejoining Russell in 1928, he stayed with the band for ten years then left to work in New York City, part of the time there was spent playing in John Kirby's quartet, then with Louis Armstrong's big band (where he played tenor) and then in 1939 with Jelly Roll Morton.
By 1945 he was working with Art Hodes, Buck Johnson and later (1948) with Ralph Sutton's Trio at Jimmy Ryan's club.
He settled in France in 1953 and, like his childhood friend Sidney Bechet, maintained a solo career until his passing.
