Carter, Gillespie Inc.

Seems unlikely they incorporated for this release. :-)

Part of the very enjoyable Pablo re-release series from Analogue Productions, this has two greats from different eras—Benny Carter (alto) and Dizzy Gillespie (trumpet)—playing with Tommy Flanagan (piano), Joe Pass (guitar), Al McKibbon (bass), and Micky Roker (drums).

A mix of styles and tempos from this sextet, and a nice listen.

Interlude

Night In Tunisia

Continental Label Records 1944

• Night in Tunisia is a musical composition written by Dizzy Gillespie in 1942 while he was playing with the Earl Hines Band

Night in Tunisia is a Jazz standard

It is also known as "Interlude", under which title it was recorded (with lyrics) by Sarah Vaughan and Anita O'Day.
Gillespie himself called the tune Night in Tunisia

Although the song is sometimes titled "A Night in Tunisia", the proper title is Night in Tunisia

• The complex bass line in the "A section" is notable for avoiding the standard walking bass pattern of straight quarter notes, and the use of oscillating half-step-up/half-step-down chord changes gives the song a unique, mysterious feeling

• Like many of Gillespie's tunes, it features a short written introduction and a brief interlude that occurs between solo sections — in this case, a twelve-bar sequence leading into a four-bar break for the next soloist.

• Sarah Vaughan and Her All-Stars

• Dizzy Gillespie (trumpet)

• Aaron Sachs (clarinet)

• Georgie Auld (tenor Sax)

• Jack Lesberg (Double Bass)

• Chuck Wayne (guitar)

• Piano/Producer: Leonard Feather (piano)

• Morey Feld (drums)

• Recorded in New York City December 31 1944 (Continental Label Records)

Interlude

Lyrics

I lived in a dream for a moment
We'd loved in a midnight solitude
But I never knew at the moment
Love was just an interlude

I thrill as your arms would enfold me
A kiss of surrender says the mood
Then heaven fell down when you told me
Love's a passing interlude

The magic was unsurpassed
Too good to last
The magic my heart once knew
Is dressed in blue

The shadow of night all around me
I walk in a moonlight solitude
When I thought romance really found me
Love was just an interlude

The shadow of night all around me
I walk in a moonlight solitude
When I thought romance really found me
Love was just an interlude

#Video - Why a Grammy Winner Says You Can’t Understand Jazz Without Cuba
https://peertube.world/w/3sepoddXTodz5pPfwDAGZg

[from the #news collective #bellyofthebeast]

Arturo O’Farrill is a #Grammy-winning pianist, composer and one of the most influential voices in #AfroCubanJazz. But for him, #Cuba is more than just an inspiration — it’s home, history and identity.

In #Havana, during the 41st International #Jazz Plaza Festival, Arturo told us why #jazz cannot be understood without Cuba, why #AfroCuban roots remain central to the music’s evolution, and why #cultural exchange persists despite the #US’s decades-long economic war on Cuba.

Arturo has been returning to Cuba year after year for over two decades, honoring his heritage, and using #music as a bridge between Cuban and US citizens - despite the personal cost of taking political positions.

“This is Cuba,” he says. “I come here to learn how to live.”

#DizzyGillespie was an early champion of #LatinMusic, often to the disdain of some of his fellow musicians. Fair to say Dizzy was on to something, eh? #Music #Jazz #AfroCuban #History https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5tRGMHfKrE

Oscar Peterson & Dizzy Gillespie, 1975 on Pablo

Pablo records, with a logo and name inspired by Picasso, was started by Norman Granz (who also produced this record) in the early seventies. There’s a ton of great Pablo jazz records—I generally pick them up whenever I see them.

Recorded in 1974 in London, this release brings together two greats but it is not a “legacy” album – their playing is still super vibrant here. (Gillespie won a Best Jazz Performance Grammy for this recording).

Dokumentarfilmperle – „Soundtrack für einen Staatsstreich“ (2024)

Es beginnt mit einer Jazznummer. Kein Vorspann, kein erklärender Off-Kommentar. Stattdessen: Trommeln, Bläser, flackernde Schwarzweißbilder – und plötzlich sind wir mittendrin im Jahr 1960. In Kongo. Afrika im Kalten Krieg. In einem Netz aus kolonialer Gier, geopolitischer Intrige und kultureller Täuschung. Ein fantastisch gemachter und unbedingt sehenswerter Dokumentarfilm! (ARTE)

"I Got Rhythm" is a piece composed by #GeorgeGershwin with lyrics by #IraGershwin and published in 1930, which became a #jazzStandard. Its #chordProgression, known as the "#rhythmChanges", is the foundation for many other popular jazz tunes such as #CharlieParker's and #DizzyGillespie's #bebop standard "Anthropology (Thrivin' on a Riff)".

Charlie Parker, The Mercury & Clef 10-inch LP Collection

This 2021 box collects / reproduces the 10″ LPs put out in the early 1950s:

• Charlie Parker With Strings (1950)
• Charlie Parker With Strings #2 (1954)
• Bird and Diz (1952)
• Charlie Parker Plays South of the Border (1952)
• Charlie Parker (1954)

I don’t normally collect 10″ records, but got a good deal on this box, which is very well made, reproducing original covers and labels, and with an included book. Neither of the two “Charlie Parker With Strings” LPs actually has the #2 on it which can get confusing – the one with the two birds on it is the second. Most of these reproduce their Mercury labels except for the one just titled Charlie Parker which was only on Clef.

Artwork on all these covers by David Stone Martin. Players with Charlie Parker include Bernie Leighton, Buddy Rich, Ray Brown, Mitch Miller, Max Roach, Al Haig, Percy Heath, Thelonius Monk, Curly Russell, and Dizzy Gillespie (among others). Norman Granz wrote most (all?) the sleeve notes and supervised the recordings.

Still available in the Verve Store (and elsewhere I’m sure) it is well worth picking up.

“I was twenty when I joined Benny Goodman‘s band. Benny was forty-two at the time. But after we played about four bars, we were the same age, you know? That’s what jazz does to you. It has nothing to do with race, creed, or age; when two people play together, that’s all that counts.” - Terry Gibbs

Read the first of our two part interview with Terry Gibbs. This conversation was captured four days after Mr. Gibbs’ 100th birthday. In part one, we cover the Dream Band, learning from Fred Albright, working with Benny Goodman and Charlie Parker, providing music for Regis Philbin and Steve Allen, and more. Dream Band’s ‘Vol. 7: The Lost Tapes, 1959’ is out now on Whaling City Sound

R.I.P. Roy Haynes (1925-2024)

I was very sad to hear of the death yesterday (12th November) at the age of 99 of legendary jazz drummer Roy Haynes, one of the last survivors of the bebop era of the 1940s. Roy Haynes had a career that was not only exceptionally long but also exceptionally prolific: just look at the discography on his Wikipedia page! If I can add a personal note, he features on the first ever Charlie Parker LP I bought when I was about 15 and which I still have. I bought it on impulse, not really knowing who Charlie Parker was, was this record that turned me onto his music and I’ve never turned off.

No information is provided on Youtube, but the sleeve note reveals that the track was recorded from a radio broadcast live from Birdland in New York City on March 31st 1951 using a primitive disc recording machine by an amateur recording buff called Boris Rose. The sound quality isn’t great, but he deserves much greater recognition for capturing this and so many other classic performances and preserving them for posterity.

The personnels consist of Charlie Parker (alto saxophone), Dizzy Gillespie (trumpet), Bud Powell (piano), Tommy Potter (bass) and Roy Haynes (drums).

Here’s what the sleevenote (written by Gary Giddens) says about this track:

“Anthropology is an “I Got Rhythm” variation which originally appeared, in a slightly different form, as “Thriving on a Riff” on Parker’s first session as leader. The tempo is insanely fast; the performance is stunning. Bird has plenty of ideas in his first chorus, but he builds the second and third around a succession of quotations: “Tenderly”, “High Society”, “Temptation.” Gillespie’s second chorus is especially fine – only Fats Navarro had comparable control among the trumpeters who worked with Bird. His blazing high notes tend to set his lyrical phrases in bold relief. Bud, the ultimate bop pianist (and much more), jumps in for two note-gobbling choruses: no quotes, though, it’s all Powell. The four bar exchanges that follow demonstrate Haynes’s precision.

It’s a very exciting track not least because of the contributions of Roy Haynes, not only in the chase sequence mentioned in that quote but throughout the track where he demonstrates tremendous energy and imagination as well as control at such a high tempo.

Rest in peace, Roy Haynes (1925-2024), one of the greatest of all jazz drummers.

This morning's #workout #music is some #AfroCubanJazz from Shabaka & The Ancestors. These guys are well-known #UK #jazz stars and their #AfroCaribbean influences remind me of #DizzyGillespie despite the lack of trumpet. I have heard them here and there, but this is the first deep dive I have taken. Lots of interesting things going on musically and I can see why they are popular, but I must say the emotional tone in this particular set is pretty neutral. Doesn't have the punch of similar projects (e.g., Matana Roberts' Coin Coin, or Art Ensemble of Chicago's We Are On The Edge) to my ear.

Dizzy Gillespie’s Big 4

Here’s a gem from the Acoustic Sound Pablo series - a late-period (1973) LP from Dizzy that’s beautifully played by everyone, and sounds great to boot.

Some serious, fast work from Gillespie and Pass on Be Bop (Dizzy’s Fingers), too. I’d say more “Dizzy & Joe’s Fingers”.
