Seven Photographs of Jazz Musicians

1960CAT206New York et al. 1960. Five 8 x 10 and two 5 x 7 inch gelatin silver prints with Bradley’s estate marks to versos. Excellent. Jack Bradley was a Cape Cod native who after graduating from the Massachusetts Maritime Academy fell in love with Jazz after seeing Louis Armstrong perform at the Boston Armory in 1956. In 1958 he moved to New York from Cape Cod and began dating Jeann Failows a member of Louis Armstrong’s inner circle. Through Failows Bradley gained access to Armstrong eventually becoming very close friends with the trumpeter and his inner circle. Bradley already had amassed a large collection of jazz material much related to Armstrong and he augmented his own collection by photographing Armstrong and his Jazz circle for the next decade. The bulk of Bradley’s collection now resides at the Louis Armstrong House Museum in Queens. This collection is of seven photographs of jazz musicians from Bradley’s estate showing a wonderful window into the tail end of the Classic Jazz era. Photographs as follows: Willie Cook. 5 x 7 inches. A portrait of Cook seated. Excellent condition. Count Basie and Duke Ellington. 5 x 7 inches. The two jazz greats are seated at their respective pianos during rehearsal. Excellent condition. Duke Ellington’s Empty Bandstand. 8 x 10 inches. The horns chairs and sheet music are laid out. Very good condition with some toning to margins and a faint scratch at outer edge of image. Duke Ellington Conducting his Band. 8 x 10 inches. Excellent condition.

[Music – Early Jazz – Ragtime] Pinkard, MaceoBiblio.com

The Blue Melody. Society’s Latest Syncopated Walk. As First Played by Sophie Tucker’s Five Kings of Syncopation

1917List3667Omaha Nebraska: Maceo Pinkard Music Publisher 1917. Folio sheet music 11 x 14 inches 3 pp. plus cover. Light edge wear and small creases; a couple tiny tears to margins very good with strong color and excellent internal condition. An early jazz-era composition by the important African American songwriter Maceo Pinkard 1897â€“1962 issued from his short-lived Omaha publishing venture during the first years of the national â€œjass bandâ€ craze. The cover advertises the piece as a â€œ1917 â€˜Jass Bandâ€™ Craze!â€ and features a photograph of Sophie Tuckerâ€™s Five Kings of Syncopation the ensemble associated with the immensely popular vaudeville star Sophie Tucker during the years immediately preceding American entry into the First World War. Pinkard born in Blue Springs Nebraska emerged as one of the most important Black popular songwriters of the early twentieth century. As a teenager he worked in Nebraska theaters and dance orchestras before forming a publishing firm in Omaha while still barely twenty years old. His early Midwestern publicationsâ€”including pieces such as â€œThe Blue Melodyâ€â€”show him operating within the ragtime and syncopated dance music tradition that was evolving into early jazz. Within a few years Pinkard relocated to Chicago and New York where he became a major Tin Pan Alley figure later composing standards such as â€œSweet Georgia Brownâ€ 1925. The piece is respectfully dedicated to â€œSophie Tuckerâ€™s 5 Kings of Syncopationâ€ reflecting Tuckerâ€™s role as one of the most influential vaudeville singers of the 1910s. The interior advertisement reproduces a sample chorus of Pinkardâ€™s hit â€œIâ€™m a Real Kind Mamaâ€ another early jazz-age success associated with Tuckerâ€™s repertoire.

[Music – Jazz – Sheet Music] Williams, Clarence; Smith, Chris; Troy, Henry; Leff, Sydney [illustrator]Biblio.com

Cakewalking Babies from Home. Sheet Music

1924List3678New York City: Clarence Williams 1924. Folio measuring 12 x 9 inches 5 pp. With an attractive period style illustration by Sydney Leff with his printed signature in the lower right corner. Fine condition. A very scarce surviving example of the sheet music for "Cakewalking Babies from Home" a cornerstone early jazz-blues composition issued through Clarence Williamsâ€™s publishing enterprise at the moment when New Orleansâ€“derived ensemble practice was reshaping American popular music. Written by Williams with Chris Smith and Henry Troy the piece bridges late ragtime syncopation and emerging small-group jazz textures. Though widely disseminated through performance and recording it appears to have circulated only sparingly as domestic sheet music. The song achieved lasting fame through the celebrated 1924 New York recording sessions by the Clarence Williams Blue Five Okeh 8256 featuring Eva Taylor vocal Louis Armstrong cornet Sidney Bechet soprano saxophone Clarence Williams piano and Buddy Christian banjo; a landmark early small-ensemble performance often cited for its dynamic Armstrongâ€“Bechet interplay and its role in defining early jazz ensemble language.12 Circulating widely among classic blues singers vaudeville performers and musicians within Williamsâ€™s publishing network and the TOBA circuit the composition reflects the porous boundary between theatrical blues dance music and emerging jazz repertory in mid-1920s Harlem and Chicago. As noted in Smithsonian jazz educational materials â€œthe roots of jazz are heard clearlyâ€¦ in â€˜Cake Walking Babies from Homeâ€™â€.3 Despite its well-documented performance and recording history institutional holdings of the sheet music itself appear extremely limited. We locate a single copy at the Stanley King Jazz Collection at Oberlin with none presently recorded in OCLC. 1 Brian Rust Jazz records 1897â€“1942 Arlington House Publishers 1978. 2 Tom Lord Jazz Discography Lord Music Reference Inc. 1992. 3 â€œAct 3.
