Jean-Pierre Bertrand public to Axel Zwingenberger, a young Blues and Boogie Woogie pianist from Germany Hisfavourite pianists are Albert Ammons, Pete Johnson and jimmy yancey. http://www.boogiewoogie.com/TEST/ARTIST/BERTRAND/jpbmaster.htm
Extractions: Jean-Pierre BERTRAND was born August 22, 1955 in Saint Germain en Laye (FRANCE). His parents are music-lovers with a pronounced taste for classical music and opera. Student of the Academy of Music in the class of classical piano from the age of 7 to 14, he won the first award at a music contest in 1968. It was not enough however to make him forget the intense emotion he felt once after listening to a Memphis Slim record in a music store. After studying Chopin, Mozart and Bach, he moved on to learn jazz piano. Truly fascinated by the rhythm and the atmosphere of Boogie Woogie tunes, he began to explore the works of all the piano players for several years including artists like Sammy Price, Lloyd Glenn, Montana Taylor, Jay McShann, Pete Johnson, Albert Ammons, Jimmy Yancey... among many others. In 1977 he met Jean-Paul Amouroux, one of the greatest French Boogie Woogie piano players, who strengthened his convictions. He committed himself to work hard, with method, listening and listening again to the Boogie Woogie masters, to learn by ear the ingredients of their styles and to make them his own. From this time, his single purpose was to play in public. He began with small gigs in piano bars at week ends... He sometimes replaced one missing pianist.

Thelonious Monk - The London Collection: Volume One link with the past, with that enormously powerful and important pianistcomposer,Jelly into doing a James P Johnson piece, or possibly jimmy yancey's At The http://www.achilles.net/~howardm/london_1.shtml
Extractions: recorded on November 15, 1971 in London. "Thelonious Monk works so exclusively with the basic materials of jazz that, in the best moments, his playing almost becomes a working definition of that music. Monk's pianistic strength lies not in complex executive feats but in a sensitive, vividly incisive deployment of those basics; time, accent, meter, space". Max Harrison's quotation comes from his essay on Monk in 'Jazz on Record' (Hanover Books), one of the most perceptive pieces of criticism written about this unique pianist-composer. Any record of Monk is worthy of the closest study but the six-hour session which took place in the Chappell Studios in London in November 1971 produced some of the most stimulating music Thelonious has ever played. This session produced the last commercial records ever made by Monk. Illness plagued Monk in his later years and when pianist Henri Renaud went to New York at the end of 1977 in order to produce an album of the remaining bebop piano players (Duke Jordan, Sadik Hakim etc.) he learned that Thelonious had been lying, semi-paralysed, at home for some time. The music papers seemed not to have reported this distressing fact but being ignored by the news media was unfortunately, nothing new as far as Thelonious Sphere Monk was concerned.

Extractions: Thelonious Monk - "Solo Monk" CBS SBPG 62549 - Notes by Martin Williams. Dinah; I Surrender, Dear; Sweet and Lovely; North of the Sunset; Ruby, My Dear; I'm Confessin' that I Love You; I Hadn't Anyone Till You; Everything Happens To Me; Monk's Point; I Should Care; Ask Me Now; These Foolish Things; Introspection; (CD bonus track) Here's Thelonious Monk, once considered the most far out of jazzmen, opening this solo recital with a version of Dinah . And his left hand strides with an oom-pa beat that might have come directly from the 1920s. Monk's light-hearted spoof is a burlesque of the past, perhaps, but it never ridicules or degrades this era. But it is funny, and if you have any doubts about the humorous intent of this Dinah , listen to Monk's jingling ending. At the same time, the performance bristles with Monkian melodic ideas and Monkian rhythmic delays, which means that it is always intrinsically musical. On the other hand, there is I Should Care, a starkly original succession of piano sounds. Groups of notes sing out sustained, others are abruptly dampened. Left-hand figures trip by lightly and briefly even while previous right-hand notes are still ringing out. I Should Care is the work of a man whose pianistic technique and control are as striking and musically effective, it seems to me, as those of any pianist in any music.

Extractions: Wall Street Journal Article (reprinted without permission from their website) P.O. Box Highland Park IL Bards Who Keep A Tradition Alive By NAT HENTOFF Many of the most enduring jazz recordings were produced by enthusiasts who started their own labels to share their pleasures and discoveries. Among them: Alfred Lion and Frank Wolff (Blue Note), Milt Gabler (Commodore), Bill Russell (American Music) and Norman Granz (various labels). Less known is Steven Dolins , whose The Sirens is devoted to blues and boogie-woogie. Mr. Dolins , who teaches computer science at Bradley University in Peoria, Ill., started The Sirens in 1976 when still a teenager. Although the rent parties where boogie-woogie and other classic blues flourished were in decline in Chicago by then, Mr. Dolins gathered five keepers of this heritage Willie Mabon Sunnyland Slim, Jimmy Walker, Blind John Davis and Erwin Helfer in "Heavy Timbre." The set has been reissued with bonus tracks, and like all of the label's recordings it exemplifies what Bob Dylan told me about the blues 40 years ago: "What made the real blues singers so great is that they were able to state all the problems they had; but at the same time, they were standing outside of them, and could look at them. And in that way they had them beat." On "Heavy Timbre," Blind John Davis who worked with "Sonny Boy" Williamson, Tampa Red and other legends sings his own "A Little Every Day," a slow, deep meditation that begins with "Every day I have the blues." Beneath his haunting words, the life force of the pulsing piano presages another day. On the same set
The Boogie Woogie Beat: Rompin' Stompin' Rhythm Riverwalk guest pianist Dick Hyman (left) joins the Jim Cullum Jazz Band on boogiewoogie classics by Jelly Roll Morton, Cow Cow Davenport, jimmy yancey, Meade http://www.riverwalk.org/proglist/showpromo/boogiewoogiebeat.htm
Extractions: Above: Cow Cow Davenport. Photo: Red Hot Jazz Archive This week, Riverwalk celebrates the rompin', stompin' rhythms of the boogie woogie beat and pays tribute to the early masters of the style: piano players with "a left hand like God." They had names like "Stavin' Chain," "Kid Stormy Weather," "Porkchops," "Skinny-Head Pete," "Papa Lord God," "Slamfoot Brown," and "The Toothpick." There were several "Pine Tops." They were one-man bands, and they all played a similar style of blues piano with a heavy left hand and a walking bass. Cow Cow Davenport is often credited with coining the term "boogie woogie." By the time Davenport came on the scene, the style had been around for more than 30 years, but no one ever called it "boogie woogie." This unmistakable "rolling bass" style of piano playing had a different name in every part of the country: "overhand," "the fives," "fast Texas piano," "hop scop," the "dirty dozens," the "sixteens," or the "rocks." The inventors of the boogie woogie beat coaxed music out of honky tonk pianos: old uprights mildewed from perpetual humidity and the occasional Saturday night beer bath. They were the stars of barrelhouse joints in the backwoods of east Texas and Louisiana. They played in shacks with dirt floors that sold Royal Crown cola, homemade booze and good times every night of the week. Barrels of chock beer and moonshine whiskey lined the walls and gave these dives (and the piano style they spawned) their name: "barrelhouse."

Mama Yancey Artist Biography - Theiceberg guitar. She married pianist jimmy yancey in 1919 and over the nexttwo decades frequently sang with him at informal parties. yancey http://www.theiceberg.com/artist/26069/mama_yancey/
Extractions: PrimeTicket.net b. Estella Harris, 1 January 1896, Cairo, Illinois, USA, d. 19 April 1986, Chicago, Illinois, USA. Raised in Chicago, the young Estella took an early interest in music by singing in church and learning to play the guitar. She married pianist Jimmy Yancey in 1919 and over the next two decades frequently sang with him at informal parties. Yancey first recorded with her husband for Session in December 1943; "Make Me A Pallet On The Floor" became her virtual signature tune thereafter. They recorded a long session for Atlantic Records in July 1951, just two months before Jimmy Yancey's death. Mama Yancey more or less retired from music after that but was persuaded to make the occasional appearance and recording session. South Side Blues and, to a lesser extent, Mama Yancey Sings, were the last occasions when her bellowing church-based singing style was heard at its best. Her last album, Maybe I'll Cry, was recorded when she was 87 years old, three years before her death.

Extractions: John Steiner is best-known as the man who bought, operated, and later sold Paramount Records, the Wisconsin-based record company that issued more "race" records than any other company in the 1921-1932 period. More than 1,150 couplings of great jazz by Jelly Roll Morton, King Oliver, Clarence Williams, Mugsy Spanier and Frank Teschemaker, Fletcher Henderson, Johnny Dodds, Jimmy Blythe, plus blues that included all the recordings of Ma Rainey, Ida Cox, Skip James, Papa Charlie Jackson, and Charlie Spand as well as the earliest recordings of Charley Patton, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Alberta Hunter, Tampa Red, Big Bill Broonzy plus hundreds of others. There was a sizable catalog of black religious, country and pop music of that era, too. The John Steiner story goes back the twenties to a young jazz fan from Milwaukee (born July 21, 1908) working toward his Ph.D in Chemistry at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. By 1935 he was involved with Helen Oakley (Down Beat reporter and Okeh record producer) and Harry Lim (later of Keynote Records) in the formation of the country's first jazz support organization, The Hot Club of Chicago (named after the French org.). The first HCC concert presented Benny Goodman (then in his historic stand at the Congress Hotel) in a trio format with the band's drummer, Gene Krupa and a local pianist named Teddy Wilson. The idea , a jump-start in jazz history, birthed the band-within-a-band concept which helped Herman, Crosby, Dorsey, Shaw, etc. keep combo jazz alive in the big band era. HCC concerts continued into the 40's.
