1960rif. 9446New York: Weston Associates 1960. Staplebound. Very good. Quarto unpaginated 24pp. illustrated. Very good in the publisher's stapled wraps with a thin area of dust-soiling to the top of the front wrap and some gentle creasing to the spine. Staples gently rusted but sound. A fantastically designed concert program for the 1960 Newport Jazz Festival Concert Tour. Within are profiles of Anita O'Day Thelonious Monk George Shearing and others. We could find very little material written about this concert tour though Newport Jazz Festival producer George Wein is known to have organized some tours involving some of the major performers at the storied festivals during the late 1950s and early 1960s. The actual Newport festival in 1960 was one of the most memorable - there were several riots mostly involving frustrated would-be concertgoers who were unable to secure tickets and fought with police in the small ritzy town of Newport. OCLC records no holdings of this program nor any other from a Newport Jazz Festival Concert Tour. A rare and significant piece of jazz history. Weston Associates unknown

1924rif. List3678New York City: Clarence Williams 1924. Folio measuring 12 x 9 inches 5 pp. With an attractive period style illustration by Sydney Leff with his printed signature in the lower right corner. Fine condition. A very scarce surviving example of the sheet music for "Cakewalking Babies from Home" a cornerstone early jazz-blues composition issued through Clarence Williams’s publishing enterprise at the moment when New Orleans–derived ensemble practice was reshaping American popular music. Written by Williams with Chris Smith and Henry Troy the piece bridges late ragtime syncopation and emerging small-group jazz textures. Though widely disseminated through performance and recording it appears to have circulated only sparingly as domestic sheet music. The song achieved lasting fame through the celebrated 1924 New York recording sessions by the Clarence Williams Blue Five Okeh 8256 featuring Eva Taylor vocal Louis Armstrong cornet Sidney Bechet soprano saxophone Clarence Williams piano and Buddy Christian banjo; a landmark early small-ensemble performance often cited for its dynamic Armstrong–Bechet interplay and its role in defining early jazz ensemble language.12 Circulating widely among classic blues singers vaudeville performers and musicians within Williams’s publishing network and the TOBA circuit the composition reflects the porous boundary between theatrical blues dance music and emerging jazz repertory in mid-1920s Harlem and Chicago. As noted in Smithsonian jazz educational materials “the roots of jazz are heard clearly… in ‘Cake Walking Babies from Home’”.3 Despite its well-documented performance and recording history institutional holdings of the sheet music itself appear extremely limited.

1925rif. List3672New York City: Henry Waterson Inc 1925. Folio illustrated wraps. 5 pp. Fine condition. A striking Jazz Age sheet music issue and likely first edition for “Dinah” the widely popular song composed by Harry Akst with lyrics by Sam M. Lewis and Joe Young here promoted as a “Featured Song Success” from The New Plantation Society’s Rendezvous of N.Y. a Harlem revue-style theatrical production. The revue was advertised as an all-Black production reopening the Plantation Cabaret at 50th Street and Broadway featuring prominent performers including blues singer Ethel Waters alongside Will Vodery’s Parisian Orchestra Josephine Baker Bessie Allison Leonard Harper Jimmy Ferguson and the Plantation beauty chorus.1 “Dinah” would go on to become one of the most enduring standards of the decade. Multiple versions were published in 1925 this one in June and though we are not able to establish definitive priority we guess that this is the first edition. Very scarce with three copies found institutionally at the Francis G. Spencer collection at Baylor University BYU and the British Library reference collection. 1 “Ethel Waters Is Featured In New Plantation Revue” The New York Age June 20 1925 6.

1917rif. List3667Omaha Nebraska: Maceo Pinkard Music Publisher 1917. Folio sheet music 11 x 14 inches 3 pp. plus cover. Light edge wear and small creases; a couple tiny tears to margins very good with strong color and excellent internal condition. An early jazz-era composition by the important African American songwriter Maceo Pinkard 1897–1962 issued from his short-lived Omaha publishing venture during the first years of the national “jass band” craze. The cover advertises the piece as a “1917 ‘Jass Band’ Craze!” and features a photograph of Sophie Tucker’s Five Kings of Syncopation the ensemble associated with the immensely popular vaudeville star Sophie Tucker during the years immediately preceding American entry into the First World War. Pinkard born in Blue Springs Nebraska emerged as one of the most important Black popular songwriters of the early twentieth century. As a teenager he worked in Nebraska theaters and dance orchestras before forming a publishing firm in Omaha while still barely twenty years old. His early Midwestern publications—including pieces such as “The Blue Melody”—show him operating within the ragtime and syncopated dance music tradition that was evolving into early jazz. Within a few years Pinkard relocated to Chicago and New York where he became a major Tin Pan Alley figure later composing standards such as “Sweet Georgia Brown” 1925. The piece is respectfully dedicated to “Sophie Tucker’s 5 Kings of Syncopation” reflecting Tucker’s role as one of the most influential vaudeville singers of the 1910s. The interior advertisement reproduces a sample chorus of Pinkard’s hit “I’m a Real Kind Mama” another early jazz-age success associated with Tucker’s repertoire.

1948rif. BK0120Atlanta Georgia: Atlanta Music Club 1948. Illustrated program 18 pp. 10 ¾ x 8 ½ inches stapled in illustrated blue wrappers. Near fine condition. A program for Paul Whiteman's all-Gershwin concert at Atlanta's Municipal Auditorium on November 6 1948 built around Whiteman's close place in the history of Gershwin's concert music. Whiteman had commissioned Rhapsody in Blue and conducted its celebrated first performance at Aeolian Hall in 1924 with Gershwin himself at the piano. More than two decades later and eleven years after Gershwin's death Whiteman returned to the composer's work with this touring "musical tribute." The program ranges across Gershwin's popular and concert works opening with an instrumental medley of "Swanee" "Do It Again" "Of Thee I Sing" "Someone to Watch Over Me" and "Love Is Sweeping the Country." Vocalists Eugenie Baird and Russell McIntyre appeared alongside guitarist Mike Pingitore and saxophonist Al Gallodoro while pianist Jane Anderson performed a variation on "I've Got Rhythm" the first movement of the Concerto in F and as the finale Rhapsody in Blue. The booklet also contains a photographic portrait of Whiteman and several essays reviewing his career and his role in the development of American popular and concert music including "The Dean of Modern American Music" and "Tops' Moves to the Blue." .
