Kevin Bresnahan Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 Cannonball Adderley - Jazz Workshop Revisited (Riverside). A decent sounding blue lable pressing for $4. Sounds OK. CD is probably better sounding but it cost a lot more than $4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 George Girard - Stompin' at the Famous Door (Vik) I've mentioned my love of George Girard's music here before, but I'll bet that a lot of folks don't know anything about him. He was a fiery New Orleans dixieland trumpeter whose short career was spent entirely in the Crescent City. He first recorded at the age of 19 with drummer Phil Zito's band for Columbia in 1949; Pete Fountain was also in the band. The next year, he and Fountain formed the Basin Street Six, an excellent little group, although they did occasionally venture into corny "novelty" territory. Girard made some very strong recordings in the 1950s, for Imperial, Vik, Southland, and Good Time Jazz, often with the great New Orleans clarinetist Harry Shields in the band. Girard's style was in the New Orleans trumpet tradition, but I also hear a strong Bunny Berigan influence. He had a big fat sound in the low register and flawless technique. Late in his short life he got a weekly CBS radio broadcast from the Famous Door, and he seemed to be on the verge of a breakthrough to a larger, national audience. But he became ill, and died of cancer at the age of 26. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 (edited) Haven't heard this LP is so long it's pitiful (been listening to cds of this instead for a few decades).

jeffcrom Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 George Girard and His New Orleans Five (Imperial 10") A really nice album from 1954 and 55. I can't find a picture online, and no discographer seems to know who is on this on, besides the brilliant, ill-fated trumpeter himself. Lord thinks it might be Raymond Burke on clarinet, but it ain't. It sounds like the great Harry Shields to me, and on one track Girard encourages "Brother Harold" before the reed solo. Another spin of this great little record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 Paul Gayten & Annie Laurie - Creole Gal (Route 66) As I was listening to this great New Orleans R & B, 1947-57, I realized, to my amazement, that I have played with one of the guys on some of the 1949 tracks here - the great Crescent City bassist Peter "Chuck" Badie.
