When was this recorded?
@MatthewDLDavidson 26 күн бұрын
Excellent question! I'm sorry that my answer is less than excellent. DISCOGS states that the company released records between 1904 and 1916 (www.discogs.com/label/507657-Standard-Disc-Record?page=1 ), as does the following website: 78rpm.club/record-labels/standard-disc-record/ . Wikipedia says they stopped producing records in 1918: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Talking_Machine_Company The following website forum.talkingmachine.info/viewtopic.php?t=26262 states that Standard was pressed by Columbia, but that they never created the machines capable of playing the records. However, page 122 of the following online discography: adp-assets.library.ucsb.edu/UCSB_ragtime.pdf states that it was probably recorded by Prince's band and was released in May, 1910, which is probably the most accurate information we're going to get!

I had no idea Fletcher Henderson ever recorded for Grey Gull! The song was co-written by Alberta Hunter and pianist Lovie Austin in 1921, and covered by Bessie Smith as her first record in 1923. In her late 1970's/early 1980's comeback Alberta Hunter would tell people (correctly) that she'd written the first song Bessie Smith had ever recorded - and they wouldn't believe her!
@MatthewDLDavidson Ай бұрын
Thanks for your kind words and enthusiastic response! It might be that Henderson recorded for a different label who then sold the license for this record to the owners of Grey Gull, but I’d have to do some research. Either way I agree it’s a nice recording! 😊

I’ve listened to this video four times in a row. It’s that rewarding to hear a record I know and enjoy in clear sound so I can hear all the parts and each musician’s distinct tone. I know this band gets more attention in jazz histories after that guy from New Orleans joined it, but I love the dicty swagger of these early Henderson records. Thanks again.
@MatthewDLDavidson Ай бұрын
@@ajSammut123 I enjoy these early Fletcher Henderson recordings too. For me, it’s interesting to hear similar “stock” arrangements that other bands also used, but with much “hotter” playing and solos. I also like to hear well-known popular tunes with the “swagger” you mention. It’s also interesting to hear how Henderson’s “sound” developed over time. He was a very clever musician who seemed keenly aware of everything that was going on around him. How tragic that in his life he wound up just being a “mere arranger” for people like Benny Goodman. Thanks as always for listening and writing interesting feedback to this indispensable American music.
@thendrjazz Ай бұрын
@@MatthewDLDavidson As Jeffry Magee points out in his in his interesting book, "The Uncrowned King of Swing, Fletcher Henderson and Big Band Jazz" Henderson and the other arrangers he used in his band such as Don Redman and Benny Carter pretty much established the role of the arranger in big band jazz. So when Benny Goodman hires Henderson, he knows he's getting a top flight arranger.

It's interesting to hear this now well-known tune through the "lens" of this style. The syncopated recasting of the chorus is like an arranged Dixieland lead trumpet, and the clarinet in the mix gives it that piping "orchestrated Dixieland" sound. The tumbling, low-register clarinet obbligatos behind the vocals are always a nice touch; they're like a hot counterpoint. The "hotel band tenor" adds even more variety. There's just enough rhythm without disturbing the melody too much before hot solos. One bandleader described how improvisation is an ingredient but not the main course with these bands, so you get to enjoy a hot trumpet plus that gorgeous, well-executed reed section break. This recording encapsulates many of the sounds that I love about these twenties dance bands. They mine so much color and contrast out of a relatively small (by contemporary standards) "big band" in just three or so minutes. The record sounds beautiful. Thanks for sharing all this great music.
@MatthewDLDavidson 2 ай бұрын
Thanks for your kind words. I agree that it is a little odd to hear this tune played before it became as famous as it is today. I think this is the 7th or so recording of it in 1928. It helped Adelaide Hall’s career. And yes, the 1920s dance bands were often 11 or so players so they slowly developed into a “big band” style of the 1930s. Thanks for your great observations and for listening!

Actual personnel is the following one: Joseph Samuels (cl) dir: Jules Levy Jr. (tp), Eph(riam) Hannaford (tb), Larry Briers (p), Harry Reser (bjo), unknown (bb) & Joe Green or George Hamilton Green (d). Have in mind that Harry Gluck's very first sides were ACTUALLY with Tommy de Rose's New Orleans Jazz Band for the Plaza group (and he's not on the Ladd's Black Aces sessions from January 26 of 1924 to March 21 of 1924, which are by a small group drawn from Lanin's own orchestra that also recorded for Pathé on March 11 of 1924 [as LANIN'S JAZZ BAND], the Plaza group on February 14 of 1924, March 13 of 1924 and April 3 of 1924 [as THE SIX BLACK DIAMONDS] and Cameo on March 25 of 1924 (rejected takes of "Waitin' Around" and "Somebody Stole My Gal") and April 11 of 1925 (takes E of "Waitin' Around" and "Somebody Stole My Gal" plus "It Had To Be You" and "In The Evening". In these sessions, the actual personnel comprised Mike Mosiello, Miff Mole, Larry Abbott, Harry Perella, Tony "Toots" Colucci & Sam Wishnuff) on 1924 according to his own testimony in the article "From New Orleans Jazz Band To TV's 'Toast Of The Town' - Pioneer Harry Gluck" from the number 11 of Record Research magazine: dn790007.ca.archive.org/0/items/RecordResearch11/RR%202_5.pdf Thanks for sharing this transfer!

Great question. Based on the recording quality and the date (1924) I'm guessing so. While there's no absolute date, generally speaking more recordings than not became "electrically recorded" from around 1925 on. Some labels not so much. There was an old joke about the Paramount label - how when it advertised its new "electric" process, what was meant is that someone switched on an electric light in the studio.

Rust's America Dance Bands has Samuels leading well over 100 sessions starting in Jan. 1919 to Sept. 1925 with Levy, Briers and others. They added Hannaford in June 1920 and Glantz on and off from Nov. 1922
