YES! Thanks, King Ubu. Sorry, I haven't had a chance to post until now but I really appreciate this!

Yes, a very handy reference listing of one of the key jazz labels.

So it took 21 LP's to release all this in one collection? (cf. the Japanese Keynote box)

Somehow I had figured there was more music, though I probably underestimated the number of alternates.

[king ubu]

I don't know if this really is all - I got a PDF somewhere (too large to upload) for 15 CDs with all of the music except for the Carter alternates marked with two asterisks (**). I typed up all of this info some time ago, glad to share it here.

Of course it's missing release info, so it's more of a sessionography, I assume... and I hope there aren't too many typos in there!

If you know of additional alternates or discs that contained more than the box (as is the case with the Carter CD), let me know and I'll change the first post!

Seems to me like Mosaic was going to release a complete Keynote box, but got caught up legal issues, right? Too bad they didn't!

Thanks for posting this king ubu. One correction tho. Edmund Hall, Charlie Shavers and Vernon Brown were also on this date.

Thanks Harold - corrected!

[jazztrain]

King Ubu:

A few more corrections or additions to your listing for one of my favorite labels:

(1) First, the billing for the January 31, 1944 date should be "Coleman Hawkins Quintet Featuring Teddy Wilson" (not "Coleman Hawkins Quintet").

(2) Next, the following listing is wrong with respect to recording date and personnel:

Cozy Cole All Stars

Roy Eldridge (tp), Coleman Hawklns (ts), Teddy Wilson (p), Billy Taylor (b), Cozy Cole (d)

New York, January 31, 1944

JUST ONE MORE CHANCE (5:04) (*)

JUST ONE MORE CHANCE (4:51)

THRU' FOR THE NIGHT (4:46) (*)

THRU' FOR THE NIGHT (4:42)

Those sides were recorded by the Cozy Cole All Stars at the same February 22, 1944 date at which "Blue Moon" and "Father Cooperates" were recorded.

(3) For the Kansas City Seven date from March 22, 1944, it's Freddie Green (not Freddy Green) on guitar.

Dickie Wells and Buck Clayton are not present on "Lester Leaps In."

(4) For the Rex Stewart's Big Eight session from June 5, 1944, add the annotations that Carney plays bass clarinet on "The Little Goose" and on "Swamp Mist" and that Tab Smith plays clarinet on "Swamp Mist." Note also that this session was originally issued on HRS.

(5) A real minor one here: On the August 1, 1944 Billy Taylor's Big Eight session, Brick Fleagle should be "(g, arr)" instead of "(g, an)"

(6) On the October 17, 1944 Coleman Hawkins Quintet session, remove the asterisk (*) after "Under A Blanket of Blue." That side was issued on Keynote.

(7) On the December 12, 1944 session by George Wettling's New Yorkers, Jack Teagarden sings on "Home" and on "You Brought A New Kind of Love."

(8) The January 10, 1945 session by Chubby Jackson And His Orchestra appears to be missing. OK, it's there but out of sequence. On that session, the pianist in Ralph Burns, not Ralph Phillips.

(9) On the February 2, 1945 session by Cozy Cole And His Orchestra, an asterisk (*) should be added after "Lover Come Back To Me" since it was previously unissued.

(10) The April 5, 1945 session by Bill Harris And His Septet is out of sequence. The second title recorded is "Characteristically, B.H." (the listing is missing the periods).

(11) A few minor things with the August 17, 1945 session by the J.C. Heard Quintet: (a) missing question mark (?) after "Why Do I Love You" and (b) missing periods in "Groovin' With J.C."

(12) On the October 19, 1945 session by Irving Fazola's Dixielanders, it's "Clarinet Marmalade" (not "Marmelade").

(13) The Chubby Jackson's Rhythm session from November 29, 1945 is out of sequence.

(14) On the first (December 5, 1945) session by Bud Freeman's All Star Orchestra, Peanuts Hucko also plays clarinet on "You Took Advantage Of Me."

(15) The second session by Bud Freeman's All Star Orchestra is from December 10, 1945 (not December 5). The personnel is inaccurate in many respects. I suggest the following as a replacement:

Bud Freeman’s All Star Orchestra

Charlie Shavers (tp), Vernon Brown (tb), Edmond Hall (cl), Bud Freeman (ts), Gene Schroeder (p), Bob Casey (-1) or John Simmons (-2) (b), Dave Tough (d)

New York, December 5, 1945

BLUE ROOM (2:57) (-1), Vernon Brown out

TIME ON MY HANDS (3:08) (-2)

I FOUND A NEW BABY (2:54) (-1)

ROYAL GARDEN BLUES (2:43) (-2)

MIDNITE AT EDDIE CONDON’S (2:52) (-2)

INSIDE ON THE SOUTHSIDE (2:43) (-1)

(16) For the Ted Nash Quintet session on January 25, 1946, you're missing Marie Bryant (vocal) on "A Pocket Full Of Dreams" and "On The Sunny Side Of The Street."

(17) For the February 16, 1946 session by The Keynotes, the correct title of third tune is "Airiness A La Nat"

(18) For the Mannie Klein All Stars session on February 22, 1946, the third tune is "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen"

(19) For the Juan Tizol And His Orchestra session from April 7, 1946, Willie Smith is the vocalist on "You Can't Have Your Cake And Eat It."

(20) The Bernie Leighton Quintet session from April 29, 1946 is out of sequence. It should be moved to immediately follow the Marie Bryant session from the same date. It's the same group without Marie Bryant.

(21) For the Bennie Leighton Quartet session on August 9, 1945, add a question mark (?) after "Have You Met Miss Jones"

(22) The discography from the Keynote box indicates that for the George Barnes sextet sessions, the first four tunes are from September 20, 1946 and the last four from September 23. The correct title of the fifth tune is "Quiet, Two Gibsons At Work"

(23) Dave Lambert And Buddy Stewart With Red Rodney's Be-Boppers: Last tune is Gussie "G" (quotes missing)

(24) On the Gene Sedric Orchestra session (note billing) from December 11, 1946, Sedric and Slick Jones also have vocals of a sort on T-I-L-L-I-E.

Many of the lattter sessions are listed out of sequence.

[king ubu]

Thanks a lot, Jazztrain, much appreciated! I'll clean it all up, but it will need some time... if someone else feels like it, step ahead!

As I said, my source was a PDF of what to me looked like fairly regular CD (jewel case) inlays, with no pics though... they may have been done by someone who like me was just compiling the info (though that someone obviously also had all of that music...), probably to go along with a self-made CDR-transfer of the LP box... I didn't re-group the sessions, just copy/pasted what I got.

[Jaffa]

I have Keynote 665:

Bill Darnell (vcl) acc. by Babe Russin (ts) Tommy Todd (p) Al Hendrickson (g) Jud De Naut (b) Jackie Mills

(d), March 8, 1946.

KWC10-5 Let's Fall in Love

KWC11-3 Walkin' My Baby Back Home

Was this really part of the Japanese LP-Box set ?

Either way it's missing here.

[jazztrain]

Jaffa:

It's not on the Japanese LP box set.

The discography from the box set lists the session, indicates a recording date of c. 1946, shows that the pairing was issued on Keynote K665, and indicates that the personnel includes Bill Darnell (vo), Babe Russin (ts), and others unknown.

The discography also notes the following:

"Note: Session privately produced by Bill Darnell and subsequently sold to Keynote. Details not known. Even Harry Lim said he never heard K665. These masters never found, nor 78s, therefore not included in this collection."

What is your source of the date of the session?

Can you tell aurally if its from the same March 8, 1946 Babe Russin Quintet session?

Any comments on the music?

The discography from the Japanese box sets includes references to a few other sessions that may be worth noting for completeness:

>>>

HORACE HENDERSON ORCHESTRA: Buck Clayton (t), Eddie Bert (tb), Aaron Sachs, Hank D'Amico (cl), Horace Henderson (p), Hy White (g), Billy Taylor (b), Specs Powell (d). New York, March 16, 1945.

HL86 'Deed I Do Jamboree 908

HL87 Make Love To Me Jamboree 909

HL88 Bunch of Rhythm Jamboree 910

HL89 Smack's Blues Jamboree 910

Note: Session originally produced by Harry Lim for Keynote issue but somehow these masters were sold to Jamboree, therefore not included in this collection.

>>>

My recollection is that one or two of these sides show up in rather poor sound on a Swingtime LP.

Here's another session worth noting:

TEDDY BUNN'S TEDDY BEARS: Peanuts Holland (t), Herbie Haymer (ts), Arnold Ross (t), Charlie Drayton (b), Rollie Culver (d). Los Angeles, May 29, 1946.

Sunday unissued

I Wished On A Moon unissued

After You've Gone unissued

Note: Previous discographies often include this date as unissued. Keynote session but these masters were never found. According to Harry Lim this date was not his session, although it seems to fill the missing HL98, 99, 100 matrixes.

There's also a note regarding the Herbie Haymer's Orchestra session from March 30, 1946 that the missing master HL137, possibly from that date, was never found and that no further details are available.

Yikes, here's still another note. For the November 15, 1946 date by Bud Freeman and His Orchestra, there's a note that the session was produced by the founder of Keynote Records (Eric Bernay). The other masters from the date (KTS01,2,3,5&6) all feature unknown male folk singer. Masters KTS-1 & 4 are the two-part "Town Hall Blues."

I have Keynote 665:

Bill Darnell (vcl) acc. by Babe Russin (ts) Tommy Todd (p) Al Hendrickson (g) Jud De Naut (b) Jackie Mills

(d), March 8, 1946.

KWC10-5 Let's Fall in Love

KWC11-3 Walkin' My Baby Back Home

Was this really part of the Japanese LP-Box set ?

Either way it's missing here.

[jazztrain]

There's still one more item worth noting that is not on the Japanese LP box set. From the Coleman Hawkins Quartet session on February 17, 1944 there's an alternate take of Cattin' At The Keynote."

The alternate was included on "Jazz Potpourri Volume Three 20 Collector Items 1933-1947)" (Meritt 25). The insert notes to the LP provide the following information and credit the late Bob Hilbert as the source:

"This alternate take was discovered after the "complete" Keynote boxed set was issued in Japan. Copies of this take have been found on Keynote K612, the only visual difference being that the regular take has the matrix number as HL 15, with a "6" written over the 5. The alternate take, re-issued here for the first time, shows the correct matrix number, HL 16, in the wax. Of course, there are many audible differences in the performances, beginning with the introductory breaks between Wilson's brilliant piano and Hawkins' hot sax. Hawkins (sic) solo on this take is even more propulsive than on the common one. (Bob Hilbert)"

As a final note, the insert notes date the session as July 23, 1944. Other sources provide a recording date of February 22, 1944. The matrix numbers are consistent with the February date.

Jazztrain,

That's very interesting ! Thanks for you great info which is new to me because I don't have the Japanese Box-Set. Musically, Keynote K665 is very nice. Carefree singing, great band.

The info I have is from Bruynckx; under Russin he gives:

Under Bill Darnell the disco mentions:

entitled "The complete Keynote collection".

Once it's part of the box and then again it's not - that's what made me ask.

I'm listening to these sides as I type. I'll bet it's George Barnes.

[Chuck Nessa]

Irving Ashby would be my first guess.

A quick check of a discography shows sessions by Carter's big band, on either side of the Keynote date, with the following rhythm section: Sonny White (p) James Cannady (g) Thomas Moultrie (b) Percy Brice (d).

Edited February 16, 2008 by Chuck Nessa

[jazztrain]

It doesn't sound much like George Barnes at all to me. He was based in Chicago at the time, so it seems unlikely to be him.

Here's what Dan Morgenstern writes in the notes to the CD:

"One would like to know the identity of the well-featured guitarist; used by Lim for surrounding sessions were Dave Barbour and Irving Ashby, but this man sounds like neither. Barney Kessel has been suggested, but that doesn't ring a bell; another possibility is Ulysses Livingston, then with Carter."

Livingston is definitely a possibility. Interestingly, however, Morroe Berger's "Benny Carter, A Life in American Music" shows one James Cannady on guitar with Carter around that time, with Livingston present earlier (up to late 1943 and perhaps into part of 1944). Anyone have any idea what Cannady sounds like?

Irving Ashby would be my first guess.

I'll bet you it was Cannady. I've heard him on record once, and he sounded a lot like Charlie. I think he may have briefly replaced Christian in Goodman's band.

[jazztrain]

Any idea of where you heard Cannady? He doesn't show up in the index of Connor's BG discography, so it doesn't appear that he recorded with Goodman.

You're really giving my memory a workout. He may appear on the recordings Jerry Newman did of Roy Eldridge; the old Xanadu issue.

There's been some interest in the Keynote CD box again, I have this PDF with bare-bones CD covers on my HD, can't remember where I got it from:
