201728274<p>Jazz Age Riley II Charles A. Free as Gods: How the Jazz Age Reinvented Modernism. Lebanon: ForeEdge 2017. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine unclipped dust jacket. Among many art music and literature lovers particularly devotees of modernism the expatriate community in France during the Jazz Age represents a remarkable convergence of genius in one place and period-one of the most glorious in history. The outpouring of boundary-pushing novels paintings ballets music and design was so profuse that it belies the brevity of the era 1918–1929. Drawing on unpublished albums drawings paintings and manuscripts Charles A. Riley offers a fresh examination of both canonic and overlooked writers and artists and their works by revealing them in conversation with one another. </p> ForeEdge, hardcover

1960172596Paris: Michel Salou 1960. Superb images of the Messengers live in Paris An outstanding series of "in the moment" images showing one of the great Messengers lineups captured in Paris probably at the Olympia in 1960. The lineup comprises Blakey drums Wayne Shorter tenor sax Lee Morgan trumpet Bobby Timmons piano and Jymie Merrit bass. Blakey 1919-1920 was a master percussionist and the Jazz Messengers which he led for over 30 years was "the most famous academy in jazz" Cook & Morton. Wayne Shorter was relatively new to the band and his playing lent a "dark corrosive edge" to the front line while on ballads his tone became "softly beseeching". Lee Morgan "arguably the defining figure of hard bop" had been with Blakey since 1958. The photographer Michel Salou worked as a music executive producing albums by among others Sun Ra Live in Paris: At the "Gibus" 1973 the Mal Waldron Trio Ursula 1978 and the French pianists George Arvanitas and Rene Urtreger. He also appears in the annals of the Art Ensemble of Chicago as their "first booking agent. who helped them secure concert dates across France and elsewhere in Europe" Steinbeck p. 130. His excellent work as a lensman appears to have gone virtually unnoticed except that the National Portrait Gallery holds a single print of Ray Charles in performance. Eight original carbon print photographs 240 x 180 mm 6 landscape 2 portrait printed on heavy stock paper verso with Salou's identifying note in pencil. In excellent condition.

19501726311950-60s. Attractive collection of portraits of five jazz greats those of Paul Bley and John Lewis are vintage prints from the studio of Burt Goldblatt with wet stamps on verso. Goldblatt's New York Times obituary describes him as "a prolific designer of moody jazz LP album covers. In the early 1950s after the introduction of the LP the most progressive American cover designs were created for jazz albums and Mr. Goldblatt was among the pioneers in establishing the cool-jazz style. It encompassed black-and-white portraits and studio photographs inspired by film noir as well as gritty street scenes often abstractly overlaid with flat colours evoking a sense of urban night life". The study of Paul Bley shows him performing at the Newport Jazz Festival where Goldblatt was very much the house photographer publishing an illustrated history of the festival in 1977. Bley in the avant-garde of developments in the music "has produced vivid vital jazz couched in an advanced and challenging idiom" Cook & Morton. That of John Lewis - leader of the MJQ one of the most successful small groups in jazz - is an intimate close-up shot of him at the keyboard. Bill Evans is shown standing at the keyboard working through some changes with another musician perhaps drummer Kenny Clarke; the figure at Evans's elbow may be fellow-pianist Hank Jones. Similarly Tommy Flanagan sporting a flat cap and plaid shirt is going over material with drummer Roy Haynes. Flanagan is perhaps best known for his work accompanying Ella Fitzgerald and Tony Bennett emerging in the '70s and '80s as "a bebopper of gentlemanly distinction" Cook & Morton. The shot of Wynton Kelly is a delightful unguarded portrait showing him at the piano smiling and clearly in conversation sporting a hat with upturned brim and hip suit. Like Evans Kelly played on Miles Davis's timeless album Kind of Blue and is described by the All About Jazz website as "a superb accompanist loved by Miles Davis and Cannonball Adderley". Five original silver gelatin prints each 254 x 200 mm. Bley: identified on verso in black felt tip Burt Goldblatt wetstamp; Evans: identified on verso in pencil; Flanagan: identified on verso in pencil; Kelly: ghost of tape marks on verso; Lewis: identified on verso in blue ballpoint Burt Goldblatt wetstamp. Very slight blue ink smudging to the front of the image of Bley otherwise all in excellent condition. Richard Cook & Brian Morton The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings eighth ed. 2006. unknown
1962172605Paris: Michel Salou 1962. The band's expanded voicings added orchestral sonority to rhythmic power An evocative sequence: one focusing on Blakey at the kit a particularly luminous shot another showing the front men playing percussion two of Freddie Hubbard soloing one of Curtis Fuller and another of Cedar Walton. Blakey 1919-1920 was a master percussionist and the Jazz Messengers which he led for over 30 years was "the most famous academy in jazz" Cook & Morton. The lineup here is Blakey drums Wayne Shorter tenor sax Freddie Hubbard trumpet Curtis Fuller trombone Cedar Walton piano and Jymie Merritt bass. When Lee Morgan left the band Blakey brought in Hubbard and Fuller with Cedar Walton coming in for Bobby Timmons. The new agglomeration formed perhaps "the most adventurous of Messenger lineups. The band's expanded voicings added orchestral sonority to rhythmic power". The photographer Michel Salou worked as a music executive producing albums by among others Sun Ra Live in Paris at the "Gibus" 1973 the Mal Waldron Trio Ursula 1978 and the French pianists George Arvanitas and Rene Urtreger. He also appears in the annals of the Art Ensemble of Chicago as their "first booking agent. who helped them secure concert dates across France and elsewhere in Europe" Steinbeck p. 130. His excellent work as a lensman appears to have gone virtually unnoticed except that the National Portrait Gallery holds a single print of Ray Charles in performance. Six original carbon print photographs 240 x 180 mm printed on heavy stock paper inscribed on versos in blue ballpoint: "clichés Michel Salou". In excellent condition.
