Our Price: $5.99

 

The era represented by this album sits in between the Charleston era and the early thirties. The Rhythm Boys had moved from the Whiteman band to Gus Arnheim. The Hit of The Week label in 1930 was selling single sided cardboard records at 15 cents a piece - at news stands and also in 1930, the budget labels from Columbia - Harmony, Diva etc. had produced their last acoustical recording. Drummer Bernie Cummins, born in 1900 had started his first band in 1919, employing Randy Brooks, Tommy Dorsey and had managed the wolverines - Bix Beiderbecke's band. Cummins played the Biltmore Hotel and the Hotel New Yorker in New York City, the Trianon, Aragon, Blackstone and the Edgewater Beach Hotel and Palmer House in Chicago, and appeared in Dallas, Kansas City, New Orleans, Denver, San Francisco and Saint Paul, until Cummins retired in 1959. Of note, Leo Reisman, who ostensibly didn't like jazz, had Ellington trumpeter Bubber Miley in recording sessions about 1930. I am aware of two takes of Body and Soul with different arrangements, both of which were issued. I will include both of them in my Reisman anthology. Tom Gerunovitch was recording by 1928, changing his name to Gerun by 1929. From the 1931 until 1959, Gerun would be part owner of the Bal Tabarin Night Club in San Francisco ( Now known as Bimbo's 365). Born in 1900, he would have been only 18, a violinist fronting his own band. In Cincinnati, Henry Thies Hotel Sinton Orchestra had a modern sound , very smooth and sophisticated, featuring a very young Jane Froman on two sides. Previously, Thies was at the Detroit Ritz Hotel. Canadian Merle Johnston formed the Ceco Couriers including musicians Leo McConville-Mannie Klein-t/ Arnold Brilhart-cl/ Tommy Dorsey-tb/Merle Johnston-ts/Pete Pumiglio-sax/ Vic Berton-d. His smaller sax quartet featured Larry Abbott-Buddy Saffer-as/ Merle Johnston-ts/ Bobby Burns-bar . All these recordings are from the personal collection of Mickey Clark
