Podcasts about Count Basie

Tonight's Jazz Feature is a style known as "Mainstream Jazz". It really represents a concept where young and older musicians share a common ground. Some players are adaptable and some are not . This session called "The Jo Jones Special" represents some of the old and some of the new. It was recorded in August of 1955 with the leader Jonathan "Jo" Jones on drums. A master drummer was Jo. He assembled a fine group here with Emmett Berry on trumpet, Bennie Green on trombone and Eli "Lucky" Thompson on tenor saxophone on the front line. On piano is Nat Pierce, Basie stalwarts Freddie Green on guitar and Walter Page on bass work hand in glove with Jo Jones. An honored guest on the first and last tune of this album is Count Basie himself replacing Nat Pierce. Enjoy this fine music tonight on "The Jo Jones Special".

Todo fue bien hasta el 9 de septiembre de 1941. Lunceford, que se dirigía de Pittsburgh a Columbus (Ohio), donde tenía que cumplir un compromiso, estrelló su nuevo avión en el campo de emergencias Cherry Ford, cerca de Winchester, en el condado de Adams (Ohio). El piloto, que todavía no tenía experiencia, se había salido de la ruta y se había quedado sin gasolina. Con José Manuel Corrales.

Milt Larkin y Jimmie Lunceford “lucharon” en batallas de banda al menos dos veces, en Houston en 1936 y en Chicago, cuatro años después. "Por muy buenos que fueran”, dijo Gerald Wilson sobre la banda de Milt Larkin, “no habrían podido vencer a la banda de Jimmie Lunceford en ese momento. ¡De ninguna manera! ¡De ninguna manera! Es una cuestión de opinión, pero simplemente no es posible. Éramos una banda inteligente y también teníamos grandes arreglos. Así que no había manera de que pudieran superar a la banda de Jimmie Lunceford”. Con José Manuel Corrales.

L'histoire du jazz est peuplée de big-bands légendaires. Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Glenn Miller et Buddy Rich pour n'en citer qu'une poignée. Or, il y en a un dont on parle un peu moins et qui pourtant fut d'une importance considérable : et pour cause, c'était l'un des pionniers. Dès le début des années 20, il fit la transition entre les orchestres de jazz et de dixieland venus de la Nouvelle-Orléans, et les big-bands de l'ère du swing. Comment ? En organisant les différentes sections de l'orchestre, et en leur écrivant des arrangements sur mesure. A sa tête ? Fletcher Henderson, l'alchimiste du jazz ! Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

"Aparte de Duke Ellington, la sección de trombones de Lunceford es la más perfecta que he escuchado. Trummy Young es la gran estrella aquí. Su forma de tocar es increíblemente contundente. Es un trombonista al que tengo en muy alta estima". Hugues Panassié, crítico francés. Con José Manuel Corrales.

Our guest today is writer  Ralph Dartford who works for the National Literacy Trust and is the poetry editor of literary journal Northern Gravy.   Ralph kindly made the journey from Bradford to the Lockwood residence in Sheffield, and we settled down in my living room with mugs of tea and a plate of biscuits, surrounded by books and looked down upon by at least three pictures of Larkin. Ralph also co-organises the fantastic Louder Than Words festival that takes place in Manchester every autumn, and is a celebration of writing about music. They gather together amazing writers, broadcasters and musicians to discuss, explore and debate all things music and music industry related.  I hope we will continue to see Ralph at more PLS events.Larkin poems mentioned:The Whitsun Weddings, Dockery and Son, Mr Bleaney, For Sidney Bechet, High Windows, Cut Grass, To The Sea, MCMXIV, Here, BroadcastAll What Jazz: A Record Diary 1961-1971 (1985) by Philip LarkinThe Oxford Book of Twentieth Century English Verse - ed.  Philip Larkin (1973) I am happy to see Mr. Larkin's taste in poetry and my own are in agreement ...

This year marks the 100th anniversary of Alain Locke's classic essay "The New Negro" and the literary anthology featuring the work of Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, Countee Cullen and other significant black writers of the day.The rising artistic scene would soon be known as the Harlem Renaissance, one of the most important cultural movements in American history. And it would be centered within America's largest black neighborhood -- Harlem, the "great black city," as described by Wallace Thurman, with a rising population and growing political and cultural influence.During the 1920s, Harlem became even more. Along "Swing Street" and Lenox Avenue, nightclubs and speakeasies gave birth to American music and fostered great musical talents like Count Basie, Billie Holiday and Duke Ellington. Ballrooms like the Savoy and the Alhambra helped turn Harlem into a destination for adventure and romance.What were these two worlds like -- the literary salons and the nightclubs? How removed were these spheres from the everyday lives of regular Harlem residents? How did the neighborhood develop both an energetic and raucous music scene and a diverse number of churches -- many (like the Abyssinian Baptist Church) still around today?Visit the website for more details and more podcastsGet tickets to our March 31 City Vineyard event Bowery Boys HISTORY LIVE! hereAnd join us for our Gilded Age Weekend in New York, May 29-June 1, 2025.

A principios de 1940, un joven llamado Malcolm Little se instala en Boston procedente de las llanuras del Medio Oeste estadounidense. Aquel joven se convertiría con el paso del tiempo en uno de los grandes líderes por los derechos civiles de los afrodescendientes en su país, en Malcolm X.Pero antes se ganó la vida como limpiabotas en los salones de baile de la capital del Estado de Massachusetts. En ellos, el joven conoció a alguno de los grandes músicos de jazz del momento, de Dizzie Gillespie o Count Basie a Lionel Hampton, creando un vínculo que estrechó más tarde en los grandes clubs de Nueva York como el Apollo o el Cotton Club, donde se ha convertido ya en su camello de marihuana de confianza.El podcast Malcolm Jazz es el contenido musical extra que Documentos RNE suma al documental sonoro sobre el líder negro con motivo del centenario de su nacimiento emitido el pasado viernes 17 de enero: Malcolm X, maldito negro. Ahora, en este contenido exclusivo para RNE Audio, el guionista de dicho programa, Alfredo Laín, recibe al director del programa Sólo Jazz de Radio Clásica, Luis Martín, para mantener una conversación donde se habla de swing, segregación racial, drogas y creatividad, y se escucha a Billie Holliday, Glenn Miller o Cab Calloway, entre muchos otros. El objetivo: profundizar en la relación entre Malcolm X, el jazz y sus figuras más destacadas en las décadas de los años 40 y 50, pues como el propio Malcolm dejó escrito: "La música, hermano, es nuestra. Somos nosotros. Y como nosotros, siempre está aquí, rodeándonos, como las infinitas partículas que componen la vida. No se pueden ver, sólo se pueden sentir. La música, como el alma que nunca muere, impregna eternamente la atmósfera con su presencia".Documentos RNE se emite los viernes, de 23 a 24 horas, por Radio Nacional.Escuchar audio

This Saturday on Vintage Classic Radio, our "Saturday Matinee" celebrates the holiday season with a lineup of festive episodes. We kick off with the "Our Miss Brooks" episode titled “Exchanging Christmas Gifts,” where the ever-entertaining Miss Brooks, played by Eve Arden, navigates the complexities of gift exchanges among colleagues. The cast also features Gale Gordon as the blustery Principal Osgood Conklin, and Richard Crenna as the endearing student Walter Denton. Following that, we lighten the mood with a "New Year's Skit" by Bob Hope. In this episode, Bob Hope delivers his trademark quick-witted humor in a series of comic sketches and monologues that reflect on the passing year and the one to come, featuring guest appearances by his regular ensemble including Les Brown and his Band of Renown. The festivities continue with an episode from "The Great Gildersleeve" titled "New Year's Costume Ball." Harold Peary stars as the lovable Throckmorton P. Gildersleeve, wrestling with the hilarious mishaps of organizing a costume ball to ring in the new year. The episode also features Walter Tetley as his nephew Leroy and Lillian Randolph as their housekeeper, Birdie. The laughter carries on with the "Jack Benny Show," where Jack Benny and his cast, including Mary Livingstone, Phil Harris, and Rochester, engage in a whimsical adventure in "A New Year's Fantasy." This episode takes listeners on a humorous journey through time with Benny's vaudevillian antics. The grand finale features the legendary Count Basie Orchestra in CBS's "The Anniversary Dancing Party" New Year's special. Broadcast originally on December 31, 1967, this special brings the vibrant sounds of Count Basie and his orchestra to life, filling the airwaves with energetic jazz that's perfect for welcoming the new year. Together, these episodes create a delightful blend of comedy, drama, and music, encapsulating the spirit and excitement of the holiday season just before New Year's Eve.

Hace 20 años que el percusionista estadounidense de origen puertorriqueño Ray Barretto publicó, al frente de su sexteto de jazz latino, el disco 'Time was time is' con piezas como 'Drume negrita', 'Mags', 'One for Ray' o 'Syracuse', una canción de Bernard Dimey y Henri Salvador que escuchamos en la voz del propio Henri junto a 'Count Basie' -adaptación al francés de 'Lil Darlin'- y 'Une chanson douce'. Michael Franks con 'I love Lucy' -con la guitarra de Toninho Horta- y 'Antonio's song', canción de 1977 inspirada por Antonio Carlos Jobim, que retomó 40 años después el guitarrista y cantante John Pizzarelli en 'Sinatra & Jobim @ 50' un disco grabado con el nieto de Jobim, Daniel, piano y voz, para recordar el disco que habían firmado 50 años antes Francis Albert Sinatra y Antonio Carlos Jobim.Escuchar audio

Maggie spoke with Quincy Jones in early December 2008 about his book, The Complete Quincy Jones My Journey & Passions. We discussed some of his favorite musical collaborations including Frank Sinatra and Miles Davis and discuss the idea of mentorship and why it's so important to "pass it on" Quincy Delight Jones Jr. March 14, 1933 – November 3, 2024 was an American record producer, songwriter, composer, arranger, and film and television producer.. Over the course of his seven-decade career, he received many accolades including 28 Grammy Awards, a Primetime Emmy Award, and a Tony Award as well as nominations for seven Academy Awards and four Golden Globe Awards.About the book: Everything you love about American popular culture is Quincy Jones. As an artist and impresario Quincy Jones has been the creative catalyst for over 60 years of American cultural phenomena orchestrating the sounds of Frank Sinatra, setting the ambiance for Steven Spielberg, cultivating the talent of Michael Jackson, and introducing to the world Oprah Winfrey and Will Smith - to name a few. The Complete Quincy Jones examines the diverse virtuosity of Quincy Jones, celebrating his prolific contribution to American art and culture. Comprised of personal interviews and recollections with Jones, this collection peers behind the veil of celebrity, with extraordinary access to his creative inspirations and labors. Through private notebooks, correspondence, and photographs Jones offers unprecedented introspection into the depths of his creativity and the histories of his ventures. From the volumes of his memorabilia, Jones emerges as a contemplative and dynamic maestro, thriving on intuition and ceaselessly pursuing the soul of his art.Quincy Jones is an American record producer, conductor, arranger, film composer, television producer, and trumpeter.

Legendary music producer Quincy Jones, known for working with such icons as Count Basie, Frank Sinatra, and Michael Jackson, died this week at the age of 91. New York Times art and culture critic Wesley Morris joins us to discuss Jones' legacy and take listener calls.

In this heartfelt episode of Hollywood Live, Tanya Hart honors the legendary Quincy Jones, a powerhouse in the entertainment industry and a steadfast champion of civil rights for over seven decades. Born in Chicago, Quincy's career began in the 1950s as a jazz arranger and conductor, quickly expanding to include pop music and film scores. He produced hits for artists like Leslie Gore and collaborated with jazz greats like Frank Sinatra and Count Basie. In 1968, Quincy became the first African American nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song, achieving two nominations in the same year with his work in Banning and In Cold Blood. Quincy's influence reached new heights with his production of Michael Jackson's iconic albums Off the Wall, Thriller, and Bad.

Nick Heyward was one of our favourite cover stars when we were at Smash Hits in the ‘80s, the days when hardcore Haircut One Hundred fans turned out in Fair Isle sweaters and Sou'Westers. He now lives mostly in Florida, he's made nine solo albums – one magnificently titled Open Sesame Seed - and he's toured again with his old band after ten years' painful separation. Touring the UK in October, he couldn't be more upbeat about the road ahead – “I can do anything!” – and looks back here at the first shows he saw and played himself. Which involves … … seeing Count Basie, Ray Charles and Oscar Peterson on the same bill when he was 12. … “if you stop playing music you're like the boxer that gave up the fight”. … pop dress codes, knock-off pop merchandise and trips to Shellys Shoes. … growing up in Beckenham where Bowie was “the lighthouse beam that made being a pop star possible”. … old schoolfriends and Haircut One Hundred members Les and Graham and how “we got our friendship back”. … why seeing XTC was “like plugging into electricity”. … Buzzcocks and Boomtown Rats at the Croydon Greyhound.   … how he was saved by management. … singing Love Plus One in Salisbury Cathedral. … and the lingering thrill of his first reviews (by Graham K Smith and Adrian Thrills). Nick's tour dates here:https://nickheyward.com/Find out more about how to help us to keep the conversation going: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Support Breaking Walls at https://www.patreon.com/thewallbreakers Jubilee first took to the air on October 9th, 1942 transcribed by the Special Services Division of the War Department, then by the Armed Forces Radio Service. It featured Jazz and Swing bands and filled an important gap in the musical history of radio, gearing itself towards African American men stationed overseas. Jubilee luminaries included Fletcher Henderson, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Lena Horne, Ethel Waters, and Ella Fitzgerald. Most of the shows were recorded before live audiences in Los Angeles. This particular episode featured bandleaders known for their New York flavor, like Claude Hopkins. Songstress Ida James was emcee.

Episode 14 of Fragile Juggernaut is the first of our trio of regional episodes. It dials into New York City, the seat of the country's largest manufacturing base, but one composed of a vast constellation of small and diverse shops; and also host to the nation's largest port, transport system, white collar and cultural complex, and more. With the eminent historian Joshua Freeman, Gabe and Ben talk about worker organizing outside the CIO cast–public transit workers, teachers, laundry workers and domestics–as well as what made New York City, a non-fordist city in the age of Ford, so exemplary compared to other parts of the country. The episode features James Baldwin and Truman Capote; Irish dance halls and cruising on the piers; burial societies, Tammany Hall, and clandestine organizations; the origins of bodegas and how the mob got rackets into organized labor; the trade union origins of “Strange Fruit”; Ella Baker and Esther Cooper Jackson; the IRA and Broadway musicals; how transit workers built their union campaigning against big squeegees; the hybrid combinations of craft and industrial unionism; and the limits to workplace organization in a city defined by tremendous ethnic, religious, and neighborhood segmentation. Featured music: “I Ain't Got Nobody” by Count Basie; “It's Better With A Union Man” by Pins and Needles Orchestra; “Strange Fruit” by Billie Holiday; “The Boys of the Lough” by Michael Coleman; “Talking Sailor” by Woody Guthrie; “One Big Union for Two” by the Pins and Needles Orchestra; “New York Town” by Woody Guthrie.Archival audio credits: Esther Cooper Jackson discusses domestic work research; Mike Quill debates Rep. Fred Hartley on ABC news; longshoreman and sailor Stan Weir describes conservatizing effects of the racket on the docks.

The first globally famous American musicians weren't part of the 50s rock wave that included Elvis Pressly or Chuck Berry. They were three 3 jazzmen who orchestrated the chords that throb at the soul of twentieth-century America: Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie.While their music is well-known, their background stories aren't. Duke Ellington was the grandson of slaves whose composing, piano playing, and band leading transcended category. Louis Daniel Armstrong was born in a New Orleans slum so tough it was called The Battlefield and, at age seven, got his first musical instrument, a ten-cent tin horn that drew buyers to his rag-peddling wagon and set him on the road to elevating jazz into a pulsating force for spontaneity and freedom. William James Basie was son of a coachman and laundress who dreamed of escaping every time the traveling carnival swept into town, and who finally engineered his getaway with help from Fats Waller.To explore their stories is today's guest, Larry Tye, author of “The Jazz Men: How Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie Transformed America.
