Topic: General Forum Topics / David Sanborn

I have to admit I haven’t listened to a lot of David Sanborn, but I went and looked him up to remind me. Yes…smooth jazz… well nothing essentially wrong with that, but not ‘jazz’ (to my mind) in the strictest sense of the word. I used to listen to a lot of Grover Washington but also not really ‘jazz’ but then what is? I like the idea that jazz can be whatever it damn well chooses to be. And there’s a place for everything in this big wide world.

Yes, but consider the happy eyes and the bright smile of the congero or timbalero when he plays his drums not to mention the basic tumbao of the bass and the hummingbird who visited for the first time today. Drama, Vibration, Life.

Topic: Reviews & Recommendations / Getz-Brookmeyer reissue (finally)

I assume we are talking about Stan Getz at the Shrine, one of my all-time favorites. As a teen, my drum teacher Art Mardigan, had just come off the road with Woody’s band (by way of Lexington, KY, if that isn’t too cryptic). He played on the live half of the record and in my mind, was the more swinging drummer. The other was the minimalist Frank Isola, also from Detroit, who played on the studio cuts. Getz and Brookmeyer are great on the record, especially on “I’ll Remember April,” which has a cascading head unlike any other arrangement I have heard. I still go back to this recording periodically and have directed all of my friends and particularly jazz students, to this record. It is not necessarily the best thing either Getz or Brookmeyer have done, but it is a magical album.

Great list! On further review, unequivocally, it should be Tom Harrell for president and Keith Jarrett for UN Ambassador. Sometimes it takes a while to figure out exactly who goes where.

( Don’t know where to put this )

...Everything has a swing to it. While waiting for something to come to me to type, my thumbs tapped the basic rhythm of the tune BRASIL on the side of the space bar of this aforementioned dusty keyboard (everything is dusty here). Everything has a swing to it. My 43 years have seen many musical styles. What a great life it has been so far. Everything has a swing to it. Now my teeth are chattering together to BRASIL. How lucky I am to be sensitive to rhythm. How lucky I am to have made it 43 years. Every sound and person and leaf and galaxy and ant and cobweb has a swing to it.

Topic: Reviews & Recommendations / The Lovely Marilyn Scott!

Hi all-
I’m a huge jazz fan, and tend to be more so during the summer; something about summertime and jazz I guess.

Last night I got my copy of Marilyn Scott’s new cd “Every Time We Say Goodbye”. She does arrangements of the classic standards like, “Autumn In New York” and “The Way to San Jose” that are of impeccable musicianship. To me, the emotional depth that carries through her voice sets her apart from most vocalists. It’s my favorite jazz cd right now, and I highly recommend it.

I have recently begun listening to Jazz; I found that it relaxes me when I am stressed out. I have been listening to a lot of David Sanborn, I love how he has an understanding of music and how music should be played, and he is truly talented. My friend at umgd told me that He has a new album Here and Gone coming out August 12th. I am excited for that to come out! You can listen to some of his new stuff on his myspace page.

Topic: Jazz On The Radio / "A Night At Nick's" on Riverwalk Jazz Tomorrow

For the week beginning Thursday, June 26, public radio’s Riverwalk Jazz series will revisit the legendary jazz nightclub, Nick’s In Greenwich Village.

For almost three decades, Nick’s Steakhouse was revered as “the place” in Greenwich Village to hear classic, hot, improvised jazz. Music stands and orchestrations were banned from the stage.

Muggsy Spanier led his group there, as did Bud Freeman and Eddie Condon. Booked for a one-nighter, Benny Carter stayed for five weeks. Fats Waller would drop by to play ‘for fun,’ and so did Jack Teagarden.

Jazz pianist Johnny Varro worked at the club off and on, for more than a decade, in bands led by Phil Napoleon and Pee Wee Erwin. Varro gives a flavor of what it was like, “It was a great place. It had atmosphere. They had moose heads all over the walls. From the kitchen they’d bring out these sizzling steaks and poured brandy on the platter and the sweet smell would permeate the place.”

Nick’s Steakhouse in Greenwich Village had the ‘cream of the crop’ on the bandstand. And in the audience—the best ‘brains and brawn’ New York café society had to offer. Icons of high culture and low rubbed shoulders with students and army privates for a chance to experience cornetist Bobby Hackett with Pee Wee Russell on clarinet, the powerful sound of trumpeter Wild Bill Davison, or the swinging sophistication of Bud Freeman and his Summa Cum Laude Orchestra. Playing intermission piano, you might’ve heard stride piano man Cliff Jackson, Hank Duncan or boogie woogie master Meade Lux Lewis.

Crammed together in the smoky room, novelist John Steinbeck and baseball legend Joe DiMaggio crowded around tables next to celebrity bank-robber Willie Sutton and the hottest name in television—The Honeymooners’ Jackie Gleason.

Hopping off the subway at Sheridan Square, you crossed the street and walked straight into Nick’s front door on the corner of 10th and 7th Avenue. The pie-shaped club, lovingly created by Nick Rongetti, had a stained glass window with the letter “N” in blue and gold. Tuxedoed waiters delivered steaks to the tables, but If you did your listening at the bar, beer was only 20 cents.

Between 1937, when the club first opened its doors, until the last set with bandleader Sol Yaged in 1962, a trip to New York wasn’t complete for many fans without a visit to Nick’s. Once hooked on the informal, freewheeling style of jazz played at the club, it often became a life-long passion.

In November 1962, banjoist and entrepreneur Joel Schiavone bought Nick’s and re-opened it as Your Father’s Mustache. Your Father’s Mustache closed in 1971 and the venue went through several more reincarnations until the building was demolished in 1989.

We invited Riverwalk Jazz listeners to share their memories of Nick’s in the Village, and the phones began to ring off the hook. We heard from one man who had gotten engaged at the bar, one who was an Olympic athlete, and several who were musicians who had played at Nick’s. These listeners, and others, contribute their stories to this week’s Riverwalk Jazz broadcast as The Jim Cullum Jazz Band celebrates Nick Rongetti’s club with clarinetist Kenny Davern, pianist Dick Hyman and others.

The response to our request for stories was so great that we decided to share those that we couldn’t fit into the show into a special web presentation here

The atmosphere of Nick’s in the Village, and the exhilarating music made there, lives on, in the fond memories of fans. Tune in to Riverwalk Jazz to hear all about it, or stream the show 24/7 from our website at http://www.riverwalkjazz.org
