Moderate wear and dust-soiled to wrappers small loss mid-spine briefly affecting text textblock a bit browned and foxed else Very Good bright and sound. Evidently unrecorded Japanese guide to popular jazz music the first half almost entirely in Japanese the latter half bilingual primarily in Japanese and English. Includes the music for classics by Jerome Kern like "Ol' Man River" and "Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man"; Romberg and Hammerstein's "Lover Come Back To Me"; Moises Simons' Cuban rumba foxtrot "The Peanut Vendor"; instantly recognizable classics like "Blue Moon" and "La Cucaracha"; and songs by Mabel Wayne and Irving Berlin. The compilation also includes songs in Spanish French and German accompanied by its Japanese translation. A fascinating and beautiful little guide documenting the rise in popularity of Jazz music in Japan and Tokyo in particular issued between the devastating earthquake of 1923 and the beginning of World War II. The import of Jazz to Japan was first heralded with the rise in trans-Pacific luxury liners. A Japanese version of "My Blue Heaven" reproduced here became available as early as the 1920s and the popular 1929 Japanese film "Tokyo March" employed Jazz in its soundtrack. The genre was popular enough that Columbia and Victor records formed subsidiary companies in Japan. The popularity of jazz in Japan continues to this day touted by one of the country's most prominent public and literary figures Haruki Murakami who first opened his Jazz club right out of college after falling in love with the genre at an Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers show in Kobe in 1964.

Photograph of Bradford's Orchestra an African American Pittsburgh Ensemble Directed by Walter Felix Bradford which Broadcast on KDKA in the Early Years of Radio

1922réf. BK0009Pittsburgh: Sissman Studio 1922. Photograph measuring approximately 8 x 10 inches. Studio portrait of nine African American musicians posed with saxophones brass instruments violin banjo drums and other instruments with a rug prominently lettered "Bradford's Orchestra" at their feet. Photographer identified as Sissman Studio of Pittsburgh. Some wear and toning particularly at edges and corners; generally well preserved. An early photograph of Bradford's Orchestra an African American ensemble active in Pittsburgh under the direction of Walter Felix Bradford during the early 1920s. Nine musicians pose with an unusually extensive display of their instruments while the orchestra's name is incorporated prominently into the composition on a rug at their feet. The photograph was made by Sissman Studio a Pittsburgh photographic firm later located on Centre Avenue in the city's Hill District. Contemporary sources document Bradford's Orchestra performing over Pittsburgh's pioneering radio station KDKA during this period. A December 1922 program announced an 8:30 evening "Concert by Bradford's Orchestra under the direction of Walter Felix Bradford" with a varied program ranging from Mendelssohn and Verdi to popular marches and light orchestral music.1 The group is also listed as performing on KDKA in the Utica Observer-Dispatch in December 1922.2 The present photograph appears to be an otherwise unrecorded studio portrait of the same Pittsburgh organization. Bradford belonged to a substantial but poorly documented community of African American bandleaders and musicians working in Pittsburgh during the early twentieth century. Later accounts of musical life in the Hill District place him alongside such local ensembles as the Harlem Troubadours Gerty Long and Her Night Hawks and Walt Rainey's High Schoolers.3 These local orchestras formed an important part of the musical culture from which Pittsburgh would subsequently produce an extraordinary generation of nationally prominent Black musicians. 1 "Monday December 11 1922" Radio Broadcasting News 2 no. 28 December 9 1922 6. 2 "To-day's Radio Program" The Utica Observer-Dispatch December 11 1922 5. 3 Hugo A.

Lewis directed and played for the house bands of the Congress Hotel Multnomah Hotel McElroy’s Spanish Ballroom orchestra leader at the Coronado Beach Hotel in California Portland Night Club Garden Dancing Palace in Spokane WA and the famed Bungalow Club in Seaside OR.

This unusually well-preserved archive of a Roaring 20’s Jazz Orchestra musician and Band Leader in the Pacific Northwest reveals the exuberance and business success of this largely forgotten artist through his successful years before foundering during the Great Depression. Both scrapbooks open with clippings thank you and recommendation letters as well as dance broadsides and photographs during 1926 at the height of Lyle Lewis’s orchestra appreciation. Testimonials include B.J. Saad who owned the Garden Dancing Palace and stated “I have taken the Garden which is second to no other ballroom west of Chicago. That is why I have secured Lyle Lewis recognized as one of the best orchestra leaders on the Coast.” C.W. Craig of Lipman Wolfe & Co. department store extolls that Jazz music dance held at the Multnomah Hotel March 16 1926 that “I don’t think we have ever enjoyed better or more up to date dance music than that furnished by your splendid aggregation.” Broadsides and notices advertise the Lewis Jazz Orchestra playing the Grand Ball Room at the Masonic Temple Congress Hotel leading McElroy’s Oregonians at the McElroy’s Spanish Ballroom the Dessert Hotel Oasis near Spokane parties for Studebaker and more. One of the mounted letters includes a rather sad severance letter signed by Cole McElroy explaining the circumstances of Lyle Lewis’s leaving stating “I realise that you were a victim of circumstances. On account of the fact that you had a fine band organized. . . certain music masters of the theatre jobs saw fit to take your men away from you thereby breaking up your fine band and forcing me to make a deal for another organization.” McElroy 1888-1947 was known as “Pop” McElroy was a popular band leader who during the years before World War I and after played the Palm Gardens often and had great success in his McElroy Spanish Ballroom which opened in 1926 and then opened another Seattle McElroy Ballroom in 1928. Several TLS on letterheads include those for KXL Radio station KGW Radio Station and the KOIN Studio Director for The Portland News which played three nights a week on air for over six months. The many photographs capture the Lyle Lewis band joking around with their instruments on the road fully arrayed on stage in the Radio Station posing at various venues stages and even one as late as 1939 conducting the Lyle E. Lewis Dance Orchestra. The band included Cluet Mansfield formerly with Henry Halsted band William Webber on drums Eddie Scroggins & Frank Champion as sax players G. Berardinelli on Bass and also played dances at the Irvington Club Multnomah Athletic Club and for a while with the historic Congress Hotel in Portland which had been the City’s first reinforced concrete building erected during the Progressive Era and by 1924 expanded to 119 rooms with vibrant Jazz ballroom. The daily diaries for 1929 and 1930 show that Lewis regularly played at the Cotillion Hall now the Crystal Ballroom initially at $ 7.00 per night in 1929 and then steadily dropping to less than half by 1933. He writes about traveling for a gig in San Francisco with Mansfield in 1929 leaving Tuesday and arriving Wednesday Sept. 18 1929 driving 40 mph and getting 19 miles to the gallon with a drive made in 19 hours and 15 minutes. He played extensively at the Bungalow Club in Seaside OR which had opened originally June 19 1920 and for more than 25 years was the destination for the biggest names in the Big Band Jazz era including Lyle E. Lewis Cole McElroy Duke Ellington Bob Crosby Glenn Miller and tragically became connected with the death of Jimmie Lunceford who died from a heart attack just before playing his last set at the Bungalow after playing McElroy’s Ballroom in Portland 2 nights before. Lewis 1890-1948 was a popular Portland Oregon based jazz band & orchestra leader who managed to lie about his age and enlist at 15 in the Oregon National Guard Co. G 3rd Battalion served for three years and in May 1910 married Genevieve Franklin while working as salesman and musician before World War I Following the War he quickly became a successful band leader including successful stints with the Cole McElroy Spanish Ballroom Congress Hotel Multnomah Hotel Bungalow Garden Ballroom as well as the Coronado Hotel in California. As indicated by the daily diaries he maintained a fairly close relationship with his daughter Genevieve “Martha” but became largely estranged from his wife Genevieve living in separate rooming houses or hotels. Still in her position as a sales manager she managed to convince Meier & Frank to hire him as their house band for store functions and the restaurant while during the Great Depression he mostly worked for the US Forest Service mapping division while his show business largely disappeared. By 1943 he became the commercial agent for ACME Fast Freight where he worked as commercial agent until his death. This cataloguer could find no surviving recorded discography record for Lyle E. Lewis and his assorted incarnations although there are a few recordings for the Cole McElroy Band from 1926-1928 which most likely would have included him as band leader and musician. Lyle E.

ART BLAKEY AND THE JAZZ MESSENGERS - SALOU, Michel (photo).Biblio.com

Group of six original carbon prints of the band in concert Paris 1962.

1962réf. 172605Paris: Michel Salou 1962. The band's expanded voicings added orchestral sonority to rhythmic power An evocative sequence: one focusing on Blakey at the kit a particularly luminous shot another showing the front men playing percussion two of Freddie Hubbard soloing one of Curtis Fuller and another of Cedar Walton. Blakey 1919-1920 was a master percussionist and the Jazz Messengers which he led for over 30 years was "the most famous academy in jazz" Cook & Morton. The lineup here is Blakey drums Wayne Shorter tenor sax Freddie Hubbard trumpet Curtis Fuller trombone Cedar Walton piano and Jymie Merritt bass. When Lee Morgan left the band Blakey brought in Hubbard and Fuller with Cedar Walton coming in for Bobby Timmons. The new agglomeration formed perhaps "the most adventurous of Messenger lineups. The band's expanded voicings added orchestral sonority to rhythmic power". The photographer Michel Salou worked as a music executive producing albums by among others Sun Ra Live in Paris at the "Gibus" 1973 the Mal Waldron Trio Ursula 1978 and the French pianists George Arvanitas and Rene Urtreger. He also appears in the annals of the Art Ensemble of Chicago as their "first booking agent. who helped them secure concert dates across France and elsewhere in Europe" Steinbeck p. 130. His excellent work as a lensman appears to have gone virtually unnoticed except that the National Portrait Gallery holds a single print of Ray Charles in performance. Six original carbon print photographs 240 x 180 mm printed on heavy stock paper inscribed on versos in blue ballpoint: "clichés Michel Salou". In excellent condition.

HEFNER, Hugh - JAZZBiblio.com

3 discs cut specially for Hugh Hefner: recordings by Duke Ellington and Artie Shaw.

1960réf. 149122Chicago: Hugh Hefner c. 1960s. Lay back and think of Ellington A trio of discs cut specially for Playboy founder Hugh Hefner comprising two recordings by Duke Ellington "Mood Indigo" and "Sophisticated Lady" and one by Artie Shaw "Begin the Beguine". Each label printed in pink: "Custom Pressed by Jukeboxes Unlimited for Hugh M. Hefner" and bearing Playboy's rabbit logo and typed identification. "Hugh Hefner's initial exposure to music and especially to jazz like that of most people was through vinyl recordings and he's always been a record collector" Farmer p. 71. He was also the owner of a magnificent 1946 Wurlitzer 1015 jukebox see his sale at Julien's Auctions 30 November 2018. That lot was offered with 24 "original" 78rpm recordings by a group of artists including Artie Shaw Frank Sinatra Lena Horne and Harry James. Whether these discs were specially cut as here we have not been able to ascertain. What is certain however is the Playboy kingpin's love of jazz. "In this invented lifestyle for the modern age Hef decided that jazz was the go-to soundtrack. Jazz was the hippest music around and had been for decades. Playboy championed jazz at a time when most music critics were looking in all the wrong places for a truly American art form. Even the most forward-thinking composers of the era the Aaron Coplands and their ilk were still just building upon the European tradition. Jazz was bursting at the seams of the staid and academic classical world ripe with musical development rivalling the greatest of the old European masters. In 1957 Playboy produced a two-record set of their Jazz All-Star series featuring performers from Pops to Frank Sinatra to Dave Brubeck. They produced a second edition in 1958 and a third in 1959. Hefner then held the first Playboy Jazz Festival at Chicago Stadium in 1959" Jeff Fitzgerald at allaboutjazz website 28 September 2017. As a coda the jazz-soaked "Playboy's Theme" written and performed by Cy Coleman was the signature tune of the regular late night TV show Playboy's Penthouse. 3 aluminium-cored one-sided 10 inch acetate discs each with original label both Ellington discs with additional drive-pin hole; original plain paper sleeves annotated in ink possibly in Hefner's hand. Sleeves rather brittle torn and chipped with some loss but just about intact; a few abrasions and finger marks to discs.

Personnages Principaux du Bar.

1937réf. 171091Paris: c. 1937. Jazz à la parisienne From the collection of Rolling Stones drummer and jazz aficionado Charlie Watts with his posthumous bookplate: a delightful and highly unusual illustrated "prospectus" of the requisites for running a successful bar in Paris in the late 1930s. First and foremost you'll need "un très bon pianiste nêgre" along with "2 barmaids" and of course "2 ou 3 nêgresses à laisser vagabonder dans le bar". There then follow three pages that offer pen portraits of various artists that you might like to include on the bill along with their contact details. These include "acteurs animant la soirée ou la nuit": character actor and singer Yves Deniaud 1901-1959 Neapolitan sinti jazz guitarist Henri Crolla 1920-1960 "a travaillé avec Djingo Rainart sic du Hot-club de France" "Trois Jeunes - chanteurs s'accompagnant à la guitare et à la flute" including another well-known actor Guy Decomble 1910-1964 and the photographer Pierre Jamet 1910-2000 a close friend of Robert Doisneau and Willy Ronis. The flamboyant impresario Henri Leduc winds up the volume described as a "personnage comique indispensable à l'atmosphere d'un bar". After the Liberation Leduc a native of Montmartre set up Le Bar Vert on the rue Jacob "the first café-restaurant to play American music" Cowan & Steward p. 234. Our unidentified artist concludes by remarking "We can find for you absolutely everything that you could possibly need elephants - naked ladies - non naked ladies - a 'bus - &c. &c. - whales". Quarto. Five pages of original artwork in pencil crayon and pastel with accompanying text. Commercial sketchbook by L. Bourdillon original blue card wrappers.

ART BLAKEY AND THE JAZZ MESSENGERS - SALOU, Michel (photo).Biblio.com

Group of eight original carbon prints of the band in concert.

1960réf. 172596Paris: Michel Salou 1960. Superb images of the Messengers live in Paris An outstanding series of "in the moment" images showing one of the great Messengers lineups captured in Paris probably at the Olympia in 1960. The lineup comprises Blakey drums Wayne Shorter tenor sax Lee Morgan trumpet Bobby Timmons piano and Jymie Merrit bass. Blakey 1919-1920 was a master percussionist and the Jazz Messengers which he led for over 30 years was "the most famous academy in jazz" Cook & Morton. Wayne Shorter was relatively new to the band and his playing lent a "dark corrosive edge" to the front line while on ballads his tone became "softly beseeching". Lee Morgan "arguably the defining figure of hard bop" had been with Blakey since 1958. The photographer Michel Salou worked as a music executive producing albums by among others Sun Ra Live in Paris: At the "Gibus" 1973 the Mal Waldron Trio Ursula 1978 and the French pianists George Arvanitas and Rene Urtreger. He also appears in the annals of the Art Ensemble of Chicago as their "first booking agent. who helped them secure concert dates across France and elsewhere in Europe" Steinbeck p. 130.

NINON FLEURON JAZZ LADIES, TheBiblio.com

Album of mementos and ephemera.

1928réf. 173491Austria: 1928-33. Girljazzband" wows 1920s Austria A delightful Jazz Age scrapbook that doubles as liber amicorum and guest book assembled by the pianist and singer Anny Gloss recording in part her career with the Ninon Fleuron Jazz Ladies opening a window into the experiences of European women in jazz during the music's formative years. The first set of newspaper clippings record that in 1928 Gloss was teamed with the American "Jazz Queen" Elsie Teele at the "charming and elegant" Viennese bar the Bonbonnière with Teele billed as "the female Whiteman" - she gave the Austrian premier of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue in 1927. Much of the album is then devoted to Gloss's experiences at Hotel Radetzky in Hinterbrühl Lower Austria where she performed as part of the Ninon Fleuron Jazz Ladies. At the time the other members of the band were the eponymous Ninon Fleuron drums pseudonym of Rosa Sophie Radio 1899-1974 Mariska Gerö violin and Gretl Heller piano. One advert mentions them "Singing the Latest American Song-hits" while a newspaper clipping praises their "rendering of classical music". The album contains numerous messages sometimes addressed to her directly from friends audience members and well-wishers. While most of these are in German some are in English "Your music makes me feel 10 years younger". The Ninon Fleuron Jazz Ladies which had various personnel came to an abrupt end with Hitler's invasion of Austria in 1938. Gloss also performed under the name Anni Hölzl as demonstrated by the cast list for a 1931 performance of Der Kärntner Totentanz and the programme for a concert in which she had a soprano solo 1933. Octavo 241 x 190 mm ff. 60 final 20 ff. blank.

Kino-dzhaz Cinema Jazz.

1937réf. 124905Moscow: Upravlenie tsirkov V.K.I. Circus Administration 1937. Uncommon print run of just 8000 copies. An advertisement for the Soviet Little peoples' circus group the "Musical and Eccentric Group of Lilliputians" founded in late 1920s under direction of Mikhail Kachuriner 1896-1976 and continued until shortly after his death. The main accent was always on musical talent the performers having musical instruments specially made for them although the group did include performers of "normal" height. "Lilliputian Jazz"was probably the most popular of similar circus groups of the time their first programme "Cinema Jazz" was a parody of some the great stars of the silver screen; Mary Pickford Charlie Chaplin Douglas Fairbanks and the like. A striking example of the work of Mikhail Dlugach 1893-1988 prolific graphic designer and poster artist whose early career centred on the film industry joining Reklam Film the dvertising department of the Soviet film agency. A member of AKhRR The Association of the Artists of the Revolution and ORRP The Association of Revolutionary Poster Artists in the 30s he continued to work in film but diversified into agitprop and exhibition design. In 1940 he helped to design the exhibition pavilion at the All-Union Agricultural Exhibition in Moscow. During the Second World War Dlugach he was was evacuated to Ufa and worked for Okna TASS creating war propaganda. After the war he continued working as a poster designer in politics and the arts including circus promotions. In 1958 he was one of the team involved in the design and building of the Soviet pavilion at the International Exhibition in Brussels. An attractive and unusual piece much enhanced by the presence of the pictorial programme. Lithographically printed colour poster 905 x 580 mm; together with Kino-dzhaz.
