the tune "jump awhile" from the cozy cole session june 14, 1944 is also issued as "jam session at savoy" and "jump street" on some re-issues. foots thomas was also present on the following small-group vocal recordings:(according to the w.bruyninckx vocal discography): una mae carlisle: new york, october 20, 1944 una mae carlisle, voc,p, doc cheatham,tp, trummy young,tb, walter thomas,ts, + others the rest of my life----------------beacon 7174, harlequin hq2002 i speak so much about you------beacon 7173, harlequin hq2002 he´s the best little yank to me--beacon 7173, harlequin hq2002 there are also recordings with don redman (1943) for v-disc and ear bostic (1945) for allegro but this are larger ensembles and so they are not listed here. keep boppin´ marcel

walter "foots" thomas: one of my favourite swing ensembles, especially the sessions for joe davis with hawkins and webster! here´s another one: not exactly mid 40´s: but bruyninckx gives this one, too: new york, 1947 hilton jefferson-as donald sitterly-as anthony "buddy" saffer-as walter thomas-ts l´ana hyams-ts j... barshark-bar everett barksdale-g bill pemberton-b + others londonderry air--------------------------mary howard records 126 just like that-----------------------------mary howard records 126 i don´t know nothing about this session. keep boppin´ marcel

bouncin´ with bartok, the incomplete works of richard twardzik by jack chambers. (but only a few pages per day when i go to bed and that´s normaly so late that i can read only a little bit before my eyes close automatically.... so it will take a long time to finish this very interesting book) keep boppin´ marcel

Hep 3-CD set does not contains broadcasts. These are studio recordings, mostly for RCA Victor. hep 3-cd set h a s three broadcasts with artie shaw: 25.september 1944: lady be good and artie´s blues from jubilee show #98 and from 15 march 1945 with his gramercy five: i was doing all right and you took advantage of me from bing crosby´s kraft music hall (with the wonderful dodo marmarosa on piano - great music!!!) the rest is his rca victor and a privat session from 13/14. november 1945 issued on musicraft that concluded to an end for shaw as recording artist for rca victor because the record company claimed he had been recording for a another label in violation of his exclusive contract. shaw refuted this, claiming the sides had been cut at his own expense. a great cd-set as always on the hep label. keep boppin´ marcel

that must be the track "bass-ically speaking". a studio recording with billy taylor at the piano from the same period. or do you mean the unissued tracks with the cbc all-stars? recommendable is the book "cool blues, charlie parker in canada 1953" by mark miller (nightwood editions, london, ontario 1989). very intersting! keep boppin´ marcel

finally, here is a soundie with the very young buddy stewart together with claude thornhill from 1942: count me in. enjoy: http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=reENOGiCrG4 keep boppin´ marcel

Exactly!! (On both counts! ) This character that Durium (who I hope does NOT have these reservations towards Slim & Slam and Slim & Bam etc.) quotes fails to realize one MAJOR aspect: Those 78 rpms were NOT intended to be listened to in one single series of 16 LP tracks or, what's worse under these circumstances, 24 CD tracks one after another. They were self-contained miniatures to be "consumed" and taken in one pair (A and B-sides) at a time. The same holds true for a LOT of early (pre-war) blues records, for example, that might otherwise sound fairly repetitive on first listening too if you just looked at the superficial structure and instrumentation of the songs and listened to a huge bunch of them in one uninterrupted row. It seems, though, that today's CD and Mp3 completist listening habits prevent the listeners more and more from grasping the essence of the music of some 60 or 70 years ago - at least as long as they don't really open up their ears and minds and listen to the music individually and on its own terms. Remember this was a LONG time before all those LP-size "concept" albums came along. Besides, a point could be made for a lot of hard bop (on LP) tunes sounding like all alike blowing to all those who don't take the time to get into the finer points of the music. Not to mention other more modern jazz or rock styles and their musical output ... That aside, Slim & Slam rule (and Slim with post-Slam Bam too )! And as for the music being all alike, that character quoted by Durium who said that clearly hasn't done his homework. If he had listened e.g. to the live recordings of basically the same repertoire by Slim & Bam released on the Hep label he'd see how that music was worked with and elaborated on when the musicians stretched out on stage. well written!! keep boppin´ marcel

sorry, it seems that the link doesn´t work, so here it is: keep boppin´ marcel

only a little correction to number 7) of your list. it´s not buddy steward scatting "cherokee" but dave lambert alone. there is also a fine early bebop session on the keynote label by dave lambert and buddy stewart with red rodney´s be-boppers from november 1946: "a cent and a half", "perdido", "charge account" and "gussie "g."" with various alternative takes. i try to find a photo of buddy steward on the net but with no result. so here is a link to a famouse one that was taken at the birdland benefit for buddy steward who was killed at age 27 in an automobile accident. he was a fine singer!! http://www.birdlives.co.uk/component/optio.../key,102/hit,1/ keep boppin´ marcel
