Don't panic, just a short break of maybe a few weeks to sort some stuff regarding the Boogiewoody mansion plus other matters. I thought it would be fair to announce my temporary absence in advance this time as I can imagine the constant disappointment of R&B and Jazz starved fans dropping by to find neither fresh music nor newly uncovered arcane info posted on the blog.<br />
<br />
There's a queue of "new" records to be processed (ebay auctions, yay!) plus Marv has been sending material but at the moment I'm just not in a position to do any blog work so it's "au revoir" but certainly not "adieu" from Be Bop Wino.<br />
<br />
In the meantime I recommend that boogsters get a regular ration of blues 'n' rhythm from Matt The Cat's excellent "Juke In The Back" podcast. He's currently on week 5 of a King Records retrospective, so get yourself over to:<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Back to the 1940s Savoy sessions with another double helping of a treat that's hard to beat. Muscular tenor sax jazz workouts from some of the greatest players around at the time and definitely no over the top honkin' and squealin' on show here as things stay on the right side of tasteful. Heck, even Illinois Jacquet is in restrained mood on his session. In fact this 2LP set came as some relief to me after I'd overindulged in a honk honk honk fest by listening to a Hal Singer collection followed by an Apollo compilation of various R&B sax men, all of which left me rather exhausted and half deaf. This stuff is rather easier on the discerning ear.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Side 4 is the odd one out as it contains a 1954 session recorded by Coleman Hawkins in Chicago, but everything else is from that time and place with which I have a fascination - New York in the 1940s. Some of these tracks have appeared on the blog before as I have occasionally dipped into this set for tracks to post on a homemade comp (John Hardee) and some reconstructions of 1950s Savoy EPs (Ike Quebec and Illinois Jacquet) but these are all new rips for your delectation, and boy was it hard work getting rid of the clicks and pops hence the delay in posting. There is still some surface noise in evidence on a couple of tracks but I'm pretty pleased with the way it all turned out.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The session details are on the LP cover and there is an essay by jazz critic Leonard Feather to fill in the background. As usual I have provided the details of the original release of the tracks. Note that one Ben Webster side is an alternate take of a track originally released under Cozy Cole's name. Two of the John Hardee tracks were originally credited to pianist / organist Billy Taylor and four of Illinois Jacquet's tracks were from a session credited to trumpet player Emmett Berry, although all four of the Berry tracks were eventually released under Jacquet's name.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
We continue our look at early Savoy sides and the NYC club scene with another 2LP set from the "Savoy Sessions" series, this time devoted to a major figure of jazz tenor sax - Don Byas. As with the recently posted "<a href="https://bebopwinorip.blogspot.com/2020/05/the-changing-face-of-harlem-savoy.html" target="_blank">The Changing Face Of Harlem</a>" collection there are outstanding sleevenotes by Dan Morgenstern which provide an outline of the early career of Don Byas and an in depth commentary on the tracks on this double LP set.<br />
<br />
Carlos Wesley Byas came from Muskogee, Oklahoma. His musical career followed a path which will be familiar to readers of this blog - local bands in Oklahoma, bigger outfits in the Midwest, then a jump to California where he settled in LA for a while. In 1937 he arrived in New York, had spells with the Don Redman, Lucky Millinder and Andy Kirk bands and in early 1941 he took over the seat vacated by Lester Young in the Count Basie band, although it should be noted that it wasn't a direct substitution as Paul Bascomb (future R&B hero) had briefly occupied the position. Some of Don's work with Basie can be heard on the previous post of "<a href="https://bebopwinorip.blogspot.com/2020/05/count-basie-and-his-orchestra-one.html" target="_blank">Count Basie and his Orchestra - One o'Clock Jump</a>."<br />
<br />
Don left the Basie Orchestra in November 1943 and began the most interesting club-based part of his career, working with small groups on 52nd Street (especially with Coleman Hawkins and Dizzy Gillespie) and jamming at the Harlem clubs of Minton's and Munroe's.<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
You can find a critical account of the recordings of Don Byas, particularly with Basie and then in small group settings between 1944 and 1946 on the excellent <a href="http://www.jazzarcheology.com/" target="_blank">Jazz Archeology website</a>. The document is here: <a href="http://www.jazzarcheology.com/artists/don_byas_part_1.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.jazzarcheology.com/artists/don_byas_part_1.pdf</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This document provides marvellous detail of Don's recording activity both under his own name and as part of groups led by other musicians. The list includes not only official recordings for release on a multiplicity of labels, but also radio broadcasts and "unofficial" recordings by enthusiasts, all of which gives insight into the working life of a top class musician in 1940s New York.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The July 28th 1944 session featured on Side 1 of this collection was Don's first recording session under his own name. The August 1946 session on Side 4 of this collection turned out to be Don's second last recording date in the USA. The following month he recorded 4 sides for Gotham shortly before departing on a European tour with Don Redman. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Thereafter Europe became the permanent home of Don Byas, a decision which may have caused his importance to be subsequently underestimated by Stateside jazz fans. Whether playing small group swing or alongside boppers, Don was a formidable but tasteful soloist as you can hear on this fine collection.</div>

We step back a couple of years from the previous post of early Savoy sides which were mainly recorded in 1944. This time we're having a look at the Count Basie recordings for Columbia / Okeh in 1941-1942. For a selection of 1930s Basie recordings for Decca, see this post -<br />
<br />
<a href="https://bebopwinorip.blogspot.com/2019/01/count-basie-and-his-orchestra-swingin.html">https://bebopwinorip.blogspot.com/2019/01/count-basie-and-his-orchestra-swingin.html</a><br />
<br />
By the time of the recordings on this 2LP set, the Basie band could no longer boast the twin tenor sax threat of Herschel Evans and Lester Young, but their replacements, Buddy Tate and Don Byas, grace the set with numerous excellent solos. The gatefold cover on this set not only has recording and release details, but also lists the solos on each track, so you can follow who exactly is playing what.<br />
<br />
Like most of the big swing bands of the time, whether in a dance hall or a theatre, the Basie band would play a set which called for some romantic (or soppy) balladeering which perhaps hasn't worn well with age. Alto sax man Earl Warren warbles in the style of the day on numbers like "Fancy Meeting You" and "I Struck A Match In The Dark" while by way of contrast Jimmy Rushing's timeless blues shouting on numbers such as "Going To Chicago Blues" and "Take Me Back, Baby" has worn much better.<br />
<br />
Albert McCarthy's book "Big Band Jazz" has an amusing story about "I Struck A Match In The Dark" which was something of a hit for the band and was a big set piece in their live performances. The lights would be turned down, Earl Warren would step forward to the microphone, sing the opening line, and strike a match. One time at the Apollo, drummer Jo Jones, fed up with the whole farago, soaked the matches in water and the audience in the darkened theatre was treated to the frantic sound of match after match being struck in vain.<br />
<br />
A noted feature of this collection is the guest appearance by Paul Robeson on the two part tribute to heavyweight champ Joe Louis, "King Joe." His operatic style is an unusual addition to big band swing.<br />
<br />
The big bands were the "nurseries" for a generation of musicians who would go on to feature in small group jazz, bebop, and rhythm and blues through the late 1940s and 1950s. In the Basie group we have Buddy Tate, Don Byas, Tab Smith, Earl Warren and Jimmy Rushing, all of whom would remain substantial names after big band swing ceased to be the most popular style of music. Don Byas in particular was an important participant in the New York club scene from 1943 to 1946 and went on to record some excellent small group sides for the Savoy label. That could be our next post!<br />

<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Founded by local entrepreneur Herman Lubinsky in Newark, New Jersey, in 1942, Savoy Records went on to become one of the USA's most important labels in jazz and R&B. The label didn't really take off until mid 1944 when it started recording musicians from the vibrant club scene in NYC, both from Harlem and 52nd Street. Savoy was one of a number of small labels in the New York area which picked up on the changes taking place in jazz at that time with other examples being Keynote, Blue Note, Beacon, Manor and National.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This two LP set compiles sides mostly recorded in 1944 with the exception of some Herbie Fields sides from May 1945. The dominant style is small group swing with only the faintest hint of the be bop to come with Charlie Parker's appearance on a couple of the Tiny Grimes tracks.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The full line ups on these tracks can be found in the session details on the back cover of this set and fans of R&B or to be more precise, the area where jazz and R&B intersect will be familiar with quite a few of the names including Tiny Grimes, Earl Bostic, Ike Quebec, Ben Webster, Slam Stewart, Hot Lips Page, Don Byas, Jack "The Bear" Parker, heck just read it for yourselves.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Dan Morgenstern's terrific notes both set the scene and provide a running commentary on the tracks and are a model for what such an essay should be. He calls the music here "Harlem jump" which sums it up admirably. These tracks are contemporaneous with the rise to immense popularity of Louis Jordan's brand of jump blues and while they differ slightly from Jordan's style they encapsulate the music scene which would soon give rise to be bop, dynamic small group swing based jazz, and eventually to rhythm and blues.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
I've been fascinated for many years by the Savoy Record label, ever since I acquired the cassette "Jumpin' at The Savoy" from the New Musical Express back in the early 1980s. Indeed that cassette was the first music I posted on Be Bop Wino back in <a href="https://bebopwinorip.blogspot.com/2007/09/stompin-at-savoy.html" target="_blank">September 2007</a>. Follow the trail - there's a working Megaupload link on the post!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Over the years Savoy has featured on numerous posts on the blog, with the most recent example perhaps being a cross-blog collaboration on posting the complete "Savoy Roots Of Rock'n Roll" series. I have a few sets from the "Savoy Sessions" series which concentrates on the jazz side of the label, so you can expect more of these to appear on the blog along with other material from the New York scene of the 1940s.</div>

Here's another contribution from Marv -the first ever LP released by Ember (a co-label of Herald) in December 1957, and not surprisingly it's a collection of their best selling vocal group of the time, The Five Satins, whose "I'll Remember (In The Still Of The Night)" was not only a big R&B hit but also a pop hit in the late summer / early autumn of 1956. A year later the group had another major R&B / pop hit with "To The Aisle."</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The LP contains both sides of the first five singles by The Five Satins on Ember plus four additional sides to give what was then a whopping 14 tracks. Plenty of bang for your buck! Some of the tracks have a very professional production while others have what may be called a rather more primitive sound. I prefer the el primitivo approach!</div>

12 Hits! Battle of the Bands! Chuck Higgins versus Roy Milton! Released in 1956, this 12 tracker is an irresistible collection for fans of West Coast Honk and West Coast Jump. Brought to you by regular contributor Marv, these waxings encapsulate the two generations of Los Angeles R&B: the jump blues of the 1940s and the R&B / rock and roll of the 1950s.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Roy Milton, of course had been enjoying hit record success since 1946 when his "Milton's Boogie" and "R.M. Blues" soared towards the top of what was then called the Race Music charts. These discs were released on Art Rupe's Juke Box label which soon became Specialty. Roy had a total of 19 R&B chart hits for the label, his last "biggie" being "Night And Day" in 1952.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Roy's last session for Specialty was in October 1953, although that label still issued his material into 1955. His next recording session was for Dootone when he laid down the tracks on this LP in April or early May 1955. By then Roy's jazz, swing and boogie based form of R&B was decidedly old fashioned but the tracks here are all good, with "(You Got Me) Reelin' And Rockin'" and "Baby I'm Gone" rocking along nicely.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Cash Box, 21st May 1955</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If Roy's spectacular record sales were long gone by 1955, Chuck Higgins was still hanging in there as regards West Coast teen appeal in the same year when he recorded a session for Dootone. His big success had come early in his recording career in 1952 with "Pachuco Hop" / "Motorhead Baby" on Combo which was a strong seller on The Coast. For the next few years he label hopped around LA diskeries with sessions for John Dolphin, Aladdin and Specialty.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Unlike Roy Milton, Chuck's popularity remained entirely local to the LA area. However, the good will he had built up among LA's Mexican R&B followers with "Pachuco Hop" was thrown away with the release on Dootone of the spectacularly badly named "Wet Back Hop." Ouch.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Setting aside that dreadful faux pas, the Higgins sides here are good strong mid '50s R&B with great guitar work by Jimmy Nolen who manages to sound like T-Bone Walker on "Don't You Know I Love You" and like Chuck Berry on "Looking For My Baby."</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Well, it's pretty obvious where they got the idea for the cover from! This CD could be regarded as a greatly expanded version of the LP on this blog post. But not quite, as it doesn't have "Oh Yeah" by Chuck Higgins. Every other track on the LP is present on this 28 tracker which features more Roy Milton and Chuck Higgins, Mickey Champion (backed by Roy Milton), Lorenzo Holden, Ernie Freeman, Helen Humes, Claude McLin and Joe Houston. A must buy.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
"Oh Yeah" is on this one. I've sung the praises of this one many times before. 30 sides mainly from Combo but with a smattering of Dootone sides. Features Joe Houston, Chuck Higgins, Roy Milton, Jack McVea, Lorenzo Holden, Louise Beatty and other cool West Coast cats. Be there or be square. Capiche?</div>

Many thanks to Marv for sending in this Dooto LP. I'm gone man, solid gone.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
This LP was originally posted back in 2008 but the post remained "unre-upped" after the first takedown of the blog so here it is with all new complete artwork and a little bit of additional incomplete information on the first release of the tracks.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The notes on the back cover are very comprehensive and are a must read on the background of Panama Francis. Anyway here's what I wrote on the original post _</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This Krazy Kat LP (KK 813) from 1987 collects tracks recorded by
drummer Panama Francis and a small band for Gotham Records over two
sessions in 1949. Panama Francis had played in the bands of Roy
Eldridge, Lucky Millinder and Cab Calloway. A small unit of the Lucky
Millinder group recorded for Queen (King subsidiary) under the name of
Panama Francis and his Miamians while Millinder was under contract to
Decca (other Millinder sessions were recorded for Queen by a group led
by Bullmoose Jackson). Panama led his own group for a short time before
joining the Willie Bryant band and then moving on to the Cab Calloway
outfit.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
It was while he was with Calloway that he
recorded his first session for Gotham in 1948, leading a small group of
musicians from the Calloway band under the name of the Panama Francis
All-Stars. In the 1949 New York City sessions featured here, Panama led a
different group of musicians which probably had Danny Turner on
soprano, alto and baritone saxes, George Kelly on tenor sax, Doc Bagby
on piano and Herb Gordy on bass.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
The music is that
mixture of jazz and early R&B which is the very stuff of the
bebopwino blog. Only six of these sides were ever released, on 3 Gotham
singles. The final track, “Scrambled Eggs”, is a real oddity. It is a
take of “Jitterbug Jump” with loads of added echo and dubbed on sax and
organ. To my ears it sounds ghastly, while the original undubbed track
is a fine piece of sax-led proto-R&B.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Panama
Francis, of course, went on to become one of the top session musicians
in New York, playing on many R&B and Rock’n’Roll hit recordings.</div>

As promised - more Julia Lee. This 1980s Charly collection includes 3 tracks which were hitherto unreleased - a cover of Louis Jordan's "Knock Me A Kiss" and 2 rather more salacious tracks, "Can't Get Enough Of That Stuff" and "All This Beef And Big Ripe Tomatoes".</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The latter two tracks are good listens but perhaps the jukebox operators were heeding the warning that accompanied the Billboard review of "My Man Stands Out" / "Don't Come Too Soon" (see below) and Capitol decided to hold back on the double entendre stuff.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In a way it's a shame that Julia came to be associated almost exclusively with such material as she was a fine performer not only in the classic Kansas City blues vein, but could also put ballads and pop material across. See her performance of "Trouble In Mind" for proof of her blues credentials.<br />
<br />
Anyway, that's all I've got of Julia on vinyl, so download and enjoy before we move on to fresh fields.</div>

Many thanks to Marv for sending in this reconstituted 1955 Julia Lee Capitol LP. "Party Time" was first issued as a 10 inch LP (Capitol H228) in 1950. The 1980s brought a Pathe Marconi reissue of "Party Time" plus two more compilations of Julia's Capitol sides on Charly: "Tonight's The Night" and "Of Lions And Lambs" so no R&B revival party was complete without a few "naughty" tracks by Miss Lee and of course the hipper pubs would signal last orders with "Last Call For Alcohol."</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It was quite the comeback for Julia Lee, but unfortunately she was not around to enjoy it, having died of a heart attack in Kansas City in 1958. Her career was remarkably long lived, starting during the roaring days of KC jazz. Her first recordings were made as pianist / vocalist with her brother George Lee's band back in the late 1920s. Stardom came late to Julia, when she hit the R&B charts with a series of suggestive songs in the late 1940s on the Capitol label.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Her first big success was in 1947 with "(Opportunity Knocks But Once) Snatch And Grab It" which was followed by "King Size Papa" in early 1948. What was noteworthy was that due to the salacious content of these discs, success was achieved without the support of radio play, but was rather due to jukebox plays and word of mouth. Of course to the pure all things are pure and the classic format of Miss Lee's discs included a brief intro which would set the song in a pefectly innocent context so that whatever followed was all in the mind of the listener.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There'll be more Julia Lee in the next post but in the meantime welcome to the world of king size papas and men who stand out! Thanks to Marv!</div>

In response to a re-up request, here's an (almost) all new presentation of the Jimmy Wright Saxophonograph LP "Let's Go Crazy Crazy Baby." I originally posted this back in November 2008 but both the Be Bop Wino blog and myself have come a long way since then, so this time round you get the complete artwork of the gatefold sleeve plus label shots. Back in 2008 I hadn't learned how to scan complete LP covers, so at long last here is the full monty.<br />
<br />
I've also researched the background of the original issue of these sides and come up with additional info which I don't think is quite complete, so if anyone can add more details via the comments section or the blog email I would be very grateful.<br />
<br />
Recently I've been digging the 1940s / 1950s West Coast scene as regards jazz, R&B and Rock 'n' Roll, so this re-up was an especially pleasurable task. The tale of white LA drummer Jimmy Wright, his cohort, guitarist Porkey Harris, and their integrated R&B groups is told in Ken Mills' fascinating sleevenotes based on interviews he conducted with Jimmy in the 1980s. Sadly Jimmy died after being involved in a truck crash in the early 1990s, just a few years after the issue of this LP in 1987.<br />
<br />
So, my rocking chums, download the package and listen while luxuriating in tales of car clubs, John Dolphin, Hunter Hancock and Huggy Boy and that marvellous Los Angeles R&B / rock'n'roll scene of the 1950s.</div>

This was probably the first Elmore James LP I bought, though I can't be sure after all this time. Issued in 1980, this was one of the earliest of the Charly R&B LPs. It contains a selection of tracks recorded by Elmore for Chicago label Chief in 1957 and for Bobby Robinson's NYC based Fire, Fury and Enjoy labels from 1959 to 1963. Many of the 1963 tracks weren't released until much later and sadly, posthumously, for Elmore died from a longstanding heart condition on May 24th 1963, three months after his final recording session in February of that year.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The compilation also contains the original August 1951 version of "Dust My Broom" which was his only recording for his first recording company, Trumpet of Jackson, Mississippi. In January 1952 Elmore started recording for the Bihari Brothers, despite the fact that he was still under contract to Trumpet. We've already featured collections of the Bihari brothers material on the blog (see bottom of post) much of which was originally released on the Meteor, Flair and Modern labels. The relationship with the Biharis lasted until January 1956 with a brief break for a Chess / Checker session in January 1953.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Recording for Chief started in April 1957 and there was then a two year break as Elmore went into retirement in Jackson following a heart attack. In late 1959 he was persuaded to return to Chicago by DJ Bill Hill and while playing live dates there he was spotted by NYC label owner Bobby Robinson who recorded him in the Windy City in November of that year. Elmore's next recording session was for Chess in April 1960 but thereafter all his remaining recordings were for Robinson, mostly in NYC with the exception of a 1961 session in New Orleans.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
The third and final Pathe Marconi collection of Dave Bartholomew's Imperial sides. There may be a couple of weaker tracks but there are some real finger poppers which demand attention, especially "The Ice Man" and "An Old Cow Hand From A Blues Band" which had me bopping round the room yesterday. "Texas Hop" is nothing like the Pee Wee Crayton classic but is nevertheless a fine instrumental outing for a lineup which includes Fats Domino.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There are informative sleeve notes by Jeff Hannusch and a discography by Kurt Mohr and Gilles Petard, so no need for me to add anything! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I found this little insert inside the sleeve (in fact two of them), and how I wish I had bought more of these releases back then -</div>

Second of the three Dave Bartholomew LPs issued by Pathe Marconi in the 1980s. The title track is an absolute classic, while the version of Noble Watts' "Hard Times(The Slop)" is a a cracker. Full notes by John Broven on the back cover along with a discography by Kurt Mohr. Happy listening, lockdown downloaders.</div>

During the 1980s Pathe Marconi issued 3 collections of Imperial sides by Dave Bartholomew. I think they have appeared on other blogs over the years, but heck, here come my rips and scans! Bartholomew was of course a pivotal figure in New Orleans R&B as trumpeter, bandleader, song writer, producer and arranger. His work on Fats Domino's hits (writing many, producing, leading the backing band) overshadows his own recordings, which is unfortunate to say the least.<br />
<br />
In addition to collaborating with Fats he worked with just about anybody who was anybody in New Orleans R&B, Smiley Lewis, Shirley And Lee, The Spiders, Tommy Ridgely, Chris Kenner, Lloyd Price among others. His band was another Who's Who of New Orleans R&B, boasting musicians such as Earl Palmer, Herb Hardesty, Lee Allen, Frank Fields and Charles "Hungry" Williams.<br />
<br />
Bartholomew spent most of his recording career with Imperial except for a brief period in the early 1950s when he left following a dispute with owner Lew Chudd. During this period he recorded "My Ding-A-Ling" which was of course later revived by Chuck Berry with worldwide success. An unreleased version recorded for Imperial when Bartholomew returned to the label is included here.<br />
<br />
Although none of the sides in this collection were chart breakers, there's plenty of good stuff including the classic "Who Drank My Beer While I Was In The Rear" and "Ain't Gonna Do It" which was recorded by Smiley Lewis in an absolutely storming version.<br />
<br />
The biographical sleeve notes by John Broven are a must read and full recording and discographic information is on the back cover.<br />

The 1956 LP consisted of tracks which had previously been released as singles, mostly in 1953 and 1954. As with the other early Earl Bostic 12 inch LPs, this one went through several re-releases. It was reissued as King 529 in 1958 with a new cover as shown below:<br />

Between March and June 1959 Earl Bostic re-recorded every LP which he had previously issued in the King 500 series, with the exception of his last release in the series, King 597 "Alto Magic In Hi-Fi: A Dance Party With Bostic."<br />

With the exception of "The Merry Widow Waltz", which was recorded during sessions for LPs in the King 600 series, the tracks for the stereo version of "Let's Dance With Earl Bostic" were recorded towards the end of the re-recording sessions in June 1959. The final such session was held on June 15th when nine tracks were recorded for the stereo version of "Invitation To Dance With Bostic" (King 547).</div>

And with this post we come to the end of the Bostic King LP marathon. I'm all Bosticked out. There will be a look at Earl's pre-King work in the near future but in the meantime let's tune in to some other R&B artists. There's a loada stuff in the pipeline to keep you lockdowners a-movin' and a groovin'. Keep on truckin' everyone!</div>

1980s reissue on the Sing label of the stereo version of Earl Bostic's "Dance Time" album (King 525) which was issued in July / August 1959. The stereo version was recorded in March / April 1959 as follows:<br />

The recording details listed towards the bottom of the back cover of this Sing reissue are for the original mono version of the LP, King 395-525 which was released in 1956. It was the 4th Bostic 12 inch LP to be released and like its predecessors it consisted of singles dating back to 1951, although 4 more recently recorded sides from April 1956 were included.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
All this and much more on the Earl Bostic King LP saga is revealed on the original post of this album from 2017:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Head on over to see the original covers used on the mono version plus musings on the re-recording of Earl's King 500 series LPs. You can also read of my horrified realisation that I'd been giving wrong information on previous Bostic posts.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
For this post I have re-recorded and re-ripped my LP as the 2017 mp3s were rather indistinct. The sound quality on the new mp3s is audibly better, as is the clarity of the numerous clicks and crackles on this second hand (purchased in Love Music, Glasgow) slab of vinyl.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The post also includes a folder of 1950s artwork from the King issue of this collection.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
One more Bostic platter to go, and it's a new one which has not been posted previously. I'm just about all Bosticked out, but I know that there are some of you out there who just can't get enough! BTW "Where Or When" from this album is my latest ear worm. Can't get it out of my head. Until the next Bostic post, my R&B chums!</div>

This is a 1980s reissue of King LP 571 which was originally issued in April 1958. Unlike earlier Bostic LPs which were compilations of old singles, the tracks for this album were especially recorded in Los Angeles on December 18th and 18th, 1957. This set the pattern for future Bostic LPs with tracks being recorded over one or two days for themed albums.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
Personnel on this LP:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Earl Bostic (alto sax); Wallace Snow (vibraphone); Ernest Crawford
(piano); Tony Rizzi (guitar); Hilmer J. "Tiny" Timbrell (bass); Earl
Palmer (drums).</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
A stereo version was recorded in Cincinnati on April 6th and 7th, 1959, by different personnel. The stereo release had the same cover as the original mono release, except for a large yellow and black "stereo" label underneath "Bostic Rocks."</div>

That post included a link to Lonesome Lefty's Scratchy Attic where a copy of the stereo version of this LP had been posted. That was the last post on the Scratchy Attic, unfortunately. The link was working in 2017, but I'm not so sure if it's still working. I tried it last night but kept running in to ads and finally gave up when potential malware came into view. The more adventurous among you may wish to attempt to navigate this hazardous maze, but I wouldn't recommend it.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The post on the Scratchy Attic is short but it does link in to comments by Lou Donaldson about Bostic on <a href="https://larryappelbaum.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Larry Appelbaum's blog.</a> Go to that blog, type in Earl Bostic in the searchbox, and you'll find a couple of posts where musicians comment on Bostic's formidable technical expertise on the alto sax.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
For this re-up I've added a folder of original King release artwork found on the web, so reconstructors of original LPs can get to work! A couple more Bostic platters in the pipeline, then on to pastures new.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
I've altered the downloads which featured on the first posting of these mono and stereo iterations of "Earl Bostic For You." For the mono version I've used the artwork from the first issue of this LP in February 1956 as King 395-503. The music files were ripped from my copy of the 1980s Sing issue of this collection. The download includes the Sing artwork which is almost a copy of the second issue of this collection in 1958 with a front cover which featured a picture of Earl on his lonesome holding his sax in the air. This cover was also used for the stereo issue which consisted of 1959 re-recordings of the tracks.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
For the stereo version I've managed to dig up improved artwork from the web, although the back cover is a "mash up" of two different versions. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The original post should be read for the recording details of the stereo version and also for the original release details of the singles which were used on the 1956 / 1958 mono LP. The recording details of these singles can be found on the back cover of the Sing issue. Original post from October 2017:</div>

<br />
<br />
The tracklist is the same as King 395-503. The difference between the mono and stereo versions is very noticeable with different arrangements being used for the re-recordings. I know which version I prefer, in fact I would say that 395-503 may well be my favourite Bostic album as he powers through a series of abrasive versions of standards which were recorded for singles between 1950 and 1954.<br />
<br />
Musicians on the mono version include John Coltrane, Stanley Turrentine, Tommy Turrentine, Benny Golson, Count Hastings and Blue Mitchell, all of whom made their mark in the jazz field.<br />
<br />
By way of contrast the stereo version was recorded over a short period in 1959 by the same group of musicians which makes for a certain "sameness" about the tracks. It's well worth your while to download and compare both versions.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So before you cats 'n' kittens out there in Be Bop Wino Land start howlin' that I've posted the same damned LP twice over, no I haven't. We have reached the point I have been dreading, i.e. revisiting and re-upping a selection of the seemingly infinite number of Earl Bostic LPs released by King in the 1950s. The apparent duplication in this post is caused by the decision of King to have Bostic re-record many of his LPs in stereo in a short intensive spell of studio activity in the spring of 1959. The resulting albums were released around 1959-1960 with identical titles to their predecessor mono LPs which had been released beween 1956 and 1958.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
However in this case there is a slight alteration to the title as by 1959 King had been issuing a slew of Bostic LPs which included the word "dance" in their titles, so there it is slapped across the front cover of the stereo version, just above the hot chick in her underwear who appears to be on the verge of being devoured by a flock of parrots or parakeets. At least she's having a cocktail while the ravenous birds gather above her.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In fact so overwhelming is King's attention to detail, you can take your choice from 3 different titles for this LP by looking at the front and back covers and the disc labels. The front cover also informs the buyer that the album is both monaural and in stereo, which must have been confusing. In fact it's in stereo. And also in fact this isn't the 1959 issue but a 1980s reissue.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But let us go back to 1956 when King issued its first R&B 12-inch LPs in February of that year. There had in fact been a series of R&B 10-inch LPs issued from 1953 onwards but King changed rather belatedly to the 12-inch format with the release of 4 LPs which were previewed in the 16th February issue of Billboard. Groovers could choose from the following platters -</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The Best Of Bostic (King 395-500)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Tiny Bradshaw (King 395-501) </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Moondust - The Bill Doggett Combo (King 395-502)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Earl Bostic For You (King 395-503)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Which now brings us to the difference between the 2 Bostic albums posted here. The track lists may be identical but the two LPs offer very different listening experiences. The 1956 LP is a compilation of previous Bostic singles recorded between 1950 and 1953 with a variety of musicians which for me makes for a more interesting listen than the March and June 1959 recordings of the stereo version which used an identical group of musicians.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The arrangements on the stereo LP are quite different from the original singles and LP, so Be Bop Winos, now is the chance to train your ear to tell the difference between the two sets of recordings. This may come in handy as various 1980s reissues often failed to differentiate, which led to some confusion on the part of Bostic fans and bloggers such as myself.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This October 2017 post of the 2 versions contains full recording and personnel details for both albums:</div>

I know that there are quite a few Bostic fanatics out there, so stand by for more alto sax shenanigans.</div>

A delayed continuation of the Earl Bostic re-ups. As you can see on previous posts there is a problem with images disappearing seemingly in a random fashion from posts going back into March. I've re-upped the images for "Sax "O" Woogie" and so far they have stayed in place. Uploading images for this post has been problematic as they quickly disappear from the image upload facility, so we'll see how this pans out.Here's hoping that the front cover which is another of those great Dave Gibson at Nozbig designs stays up, at least!</div>

</div><div style="text-align: left;">Kicking off the requested Earl Bostic season of re-ups. I'll start with a couple of comps before throwing myself into the fraught matter of all those 1950s LPs and the stereo re-recordings, plus there will be a look at Bostic's wild years - the sides he recorded for Gotham before he went on to King Records and hit the formula which brought chart success and a veritable avalanche of LPs.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">First off - this Oldie Blues collection has a great selection of early Bostic, mastered from 78s by the sound of it. Boptastic!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">For some more details on these tracks, see this post of the LP from 2016:</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Ah, another "Chess Masters" double LP set that's been put together by PRT with absolutely no care whatsoever. What's a blogger to make of this? No sleeve notes. The tracklist on the back cover reverses the track lists on the actual discs. Many of the song titles contain spelling mistakes and a couple of the titles are just wrong. Before I dig in just let me say that the actual music is dynamite Chicago blues straight from the top drawer, so the effort to dig out info is well worth it.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Firstly I've gone with the track lists as they are on the discs, so sides one and two on the back cover are now sides three and four, and vice versa. The track titles are more or less as they appear on this 2LP set. You'll find the titles as they appeared on the original singles in the chronological single releases section, along with R&B chart entries. The mp3s are tagged with the LP set titles. It should be noted that 2 of the titles on this set are very inaccurate. "I Just Want To Make Love To You" was originally "Just Make Love To Me" and "I Want You To Love Me" was originally "Mad Love."</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The recording dates are mostly from the booklet of the 2CD set "Muddy Waters The Anthology" - see under recommended purchases. The original single release details are mostly from 45worlds.com and the chart entry details are from Robert Gordon's biography of Muddy, "Can't Be Satisfied." Again see recommended purchases. Also consulted - The Cash Box, Bruyninckx, The Red Saunders Research Foundation, and YouTube.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There were a lot of clicks and pops on the vinyl but I've managed to eliminate most of it. There is some distortion on "Mannish Boy" which should have been spelt "Manish Boy."</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
From the files of Marv - this Chess LP was released in 1961 when interest in "folk blues" was at its height. "Folk blues" was the means by which many blues artists moved from the R&B market where interest in their style of music was declining, into a new market where their music was bought by a white, often middle class and college based customer base.<br />
<br />
An offshoot of the folk music scene, the fans of "folk blues" adopted a purist and intellectualised approach to the blues which demanded "authenticity" and treated the music as a serious art form. If you want to get a handle on this attitude read Studs Terkel's notes to this LP on the back cover. Appearances can be deceptive, for the tracks on this LP date from ten years prior to its release and consist of rhythm and blues sides recorded for the Premium label in Chicago in 1950 and 1951.<br />
<br />
In <a href="https://bebopwinorip.blogspot.com/2013/03/messin-around-with-blues-volume-1.html" target="_blank">a previous Memphis Slim post</a> I uploaded a collection of sides which had been bought by King from the Chicago label Miracle when that label closed in early 1950. Among the sides was Slim's biggest hit "Messin' Around With The Blues." Slim recorded a session for Peacock in Houston in early 1950 then returned to Chicago to record with Miracle's successor label Premium.<br />
<br />
The Premium label was short lived, folding in the summer of 1951. Many of their masters were bought by Chess and a couple of Slim's Premium singles were reissued on that label in January 1952. All of which brings us to this collection which was released in 1961 at a time when Slim had ceased to release material aimed at the R&B market and was instead recording LPs for labels such as Folkways, Verve and Bluesville which were aimed at the folk blues followers. Indeed he had already recorded in Europe where he would make his home and find many new fans.<br />
<br />
With this release Chess were definitely aiming at sales among the college crowd as is made obvious by Studs Terkel's sleeve notes. Funnily enough, there's no mention of Slim's band, The House Rockers. VeeJay had already pulled the same stunt in February 1961 by packaging rockin' R&B sides on an LP titled "Memphis Slim At The Gate Of Horn" which was named after a well known folk venue where Slim had made live appearances. Studs Terkel wrote the notes for that one too.<br />
<br />
Five years later, in December 1966, Chess released an LP titled "Memphis Slim - The Real Folk Blues" which contained many of the R&B sides already featured on Chess LP 1455. It was 1966 and folk was on the way out and R&B was in as far as the younger music fans were concerned but Slim had already garnered a large worldwide following which would keep his musical career thriving for decades, indeed long enough for your humble blogger to see him in Dundee in the mid 1980s and be pretty much blown away by his performance.<br />
