#TimeTravelAuthors 06/11 #Harmony
#TimeTravelingGhost Part 12Once inside, we were surrounded by partygoers in costumes that would have put modern cosplayers to shame: tigers in rich yellow and black outfits, a peacock woman with a full peacock’s tail, pirates flashing gold teeth, and costumes that would get you canceled today. The whole thing moved in a Folies Bergère harmony of silk and chaos.
“We are fashionably late,” my mystery date said. Her Hungarian accent made it hard to understand her. My French was already weak; add a dash of Eastern Europe and full comprehension was dicey.
The woman continued, “But we are in time for Sidney Bechet’s sweet harmonies. Shall we sit and have a cocktail or dance?”
“Sit. I don’t seem hip to any of that jive rug cutting,” I said, immediately unsure if I’d used that right.
Indeed, the dancers dansaient comme des diables, cutting loose with spins, flips, Charleston shakes, and Black Bottom hip grinds.“Dancing is for the young, is it not? There was nothing like this when I grew up,” the Countess said. (For want of another name, I shall call her that.)
“Has Bechet shot that woman yet?” I asked.
“Oh, will he shoot someone? Divine. I must try to be there. No one tells you how dull life is if you live too long.”
A server in a risqué sequined dress arrived, and we promptly had Champagne cocktails, along with a tin of black Russian cigarettes for the Countess. She removed her mask, but I only got a hint of her appearance. The veil, appropriate for her costume, was fine black lace studded with red droplet stones; blood and shadow in perfect harmony. I could just make out her face, pale, almost as pale as the mask.
“Order what you like. I meet so few ghosts, and believe me, you are more intriguing than most. Dreadfully dull, always bent on revenge or hanging on to what they had in life. They should have worried about that when they were alive.”
She waved for two more cocktails and continued, “Mademoiselle Baker is best appreciated after a few cocktails.”

I don't frequent #RecordStores very often anymore but I was in #Martinez today & happened to notice a small record store there.
I browsed thru their 3 small bins of jazz LPs & found the 1984 #MosaicRecords release of the #PortOfHarlemJazzmen which includes the 1st recordings ever produced & released on an album by (the to be named) #BlueNote records founded by Alfred Lion in 1939.
The sound quality on the album isn't great because it's mastered from the acetates used to cut the original 78's during 2 sessions in 1939. If you're into listening to "vintage" jazz music, that's par for the course but the poor sound quality does not detract from listening to #SidneyBechet play a soulful version of #Summertime on the B-side of the LP.
I could have bought a copy off of #Discogs but part of the fun of collecting LPs is going #BinDiving & I consider this a great #LP find!
However, I am now thinking about buying the a Japanese re-issue of the original album for comparison.

Spent the last roughly 3 hours listening to the 6 #LP #MosaicRecords set of "The Complete Blue Note Recordings of Sidney Bechet" recorded between 1939 & 1953.
I'm not really a #Dixieland or #TraditionalJazz"fan but the time flew by as I changed/flipped the LPs every 15 mins or so listening to this amazing 70-85 yr old music.
Sidney Bechet played jazz #clarinet long before #BennyGoodman came on the scene &, while it's undocumented, I dare say that what #Goodman learned about how to play the jazz clarinet, he learned from #SidneyBechet.

JazzWax : Backgrounder: 'Sidney Bechet/Martial Solal,' 1957
Marc Myers : "What makes this album special is the early jazz sound of Bechet's soprano saxophone juxtaposed with the spirited modernism of Solal's piano. At points, Bechet swings with such graceful purity while the Solal trio runs bop."

Mama told me there'd be days like this: here's a fan video from yesterday's busk in #trinitybellwoodspark #toronto
Perfect weather, such a lovely audience (would love to take them home with us!) and even the bylaw officers were amicable¹!
#buskerslife #earlyjazz #fanvid #SidneyBechet #clarinet #banjo #buildingabetterOntario
¹ it is apparently illegal to busk in parks. Playing music is fine, unamplified, but cases must be closed. Now if a stranger OPENS it a bit and slyly pops in some cash…

Wild Cat Blues, recorded 100 years ago today, 30 July 1923
Clarence Williams Blue Five - Sidney Bechet's name wasn't on the original 78 issue, but he dominates the recording on soprano sax. He was immediately recognized by fellow musicians back in his home town of New Orleans, where the record sold well.

JAZZ-FUNK/FUSION. #DanielBechet – Songs to My Father (1979). Jazz-funk/fusion album by French percussionist Daniel Bechet, son of #SidneyBechet.
Listen to this cosmic nugget, with bass clarinet, flute, Rhodes, chorused bass, and a wonderfully time-specific synth string ensemble.

Some of us have been fighting for it's preservation for over 30 years - I think there may be a few folks still around who were fighting decades earlier. It was added to the US National Register of Historic Places in 2002.
In July 2005 the back third of the building was demolished.
