ON THE FRONT RAGE :AMERICAN HOT WAX: A recently acquired label oddity. Belongs to a series of 15 78rpm records for
Juke Baxes use. "A Train" on this "VYNAL" pressing is not the original 78, but one with an audience. The0 reverse side "8" has 'The Five Saints" performing "In The Still Of The Night". (Lawrence)
We hope soon to be able to identify this "A Train" origination, and maybe Jerry Valbum will be ableto supply further clarification as to the label, which would be of interest for inclusion in his DIRECT¬ORY: The work on this is going on in fUll and will cover in detail with cross-indexing and discographyall of Duke's performances of Ellington on record as outlined originally in his Directory. (DEMS)
VICTOR PROGRAM TRANSCRIPTION (J) J L-6Q0Q2: I recently acquired this extremely rare Japanese issue.| (1932). It is estimated that approximately 5 copies have survived, the whereabout of two of them (in¬
cluding this copy) is known. The Japanese were more considerate than their North-American counterparts.The Canadian/US issues were single-sided. This release combines Ellington (L-16007) with Wayne King(L-16000). (Valbum)
"CHRISTMAS JUBILEE" (ctd. from front page):Oh, Little Town Of Bethlehem/Santa Claus Is Coming To Tcwn/M.Blank & Sportsmen: Jingle Bells/K.Starr withB.Butterfield 5: December /Les Brown & hisBand of Renown: I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm.
Jerry Valbum is, of course, among the contributors to this albun release. Audio restoration is, notsurprisingly. Jack Towers- and may we point cut that the sound is excellent.
(a) = Vocal by the Delta Rhythm Boys; (b) = Vocal by Lena Home; (c) = Vocal by Bing Crosby.We have learned that the label name is equivalent to the prefix of the albun ruitoer. (Aasland)
THE DUKE ELLINGTON CHRONICLEIGO ITINERARY QUERIES
1. -Storyville 80 p53 "Jazz: A History of theNew York Scene" by Samuel Charters & LenKunstadt statedthat the band went into the CottonClub the first week in July (1927). Since thisprecedes the famous 4 Dec 27 opening did thisoccur and if so what were the dates?
2. -Was there a Cameo-Pathe recording sessionin Oct 27? If so, the date?
3. -A 2 week engagement at the Palace Theatrein New York NY beginning 07 Jun 30 has notbeen verified.
4. -There is a question whether the band was inChicago !L or Buffalo NY the week beginning 22May 31.
5. -There is an unverified report that the bandplayed for a Harvard-Dartmouth Ball at theCopley Plaza Hotel in Boston NY in Nov 31.
6. -There is an unverified report that the bandplayed for 4 dances in the Chicago IL area 28thru 31 Jul 32.7. -There is an unverified report that duringthe latter part of May 1934, on the way toChicago for 4 weeks at the Century of ProgressWorlds Fair, the band had gigs in Seattle WA,Tacoma WA, Ogden UT, Salt Lake City UT andDenver CO.8. -When did the Duke Ellington Orchestraclose their 1943 stay at the HurricaneRestaurant? The New Yorker Magazine 25 Sep43 stated that the session would close Friday 24Sep 63. Jerry Valburn, in his excellentpresentation at the Duke Ellington Conferencein Ottawa last May, gave the closing date asThursday 23 Sep 43. Since the Orchestraopened at the Hurricane on a Thursday 01 April43 it would seem logical that they would closeon a Wednesday. Also Variety 25 Aug 43 p37scheduled the band for a concert at thePhiladelphia Academy of Music in PhiladelphiaPA in 23 Aug 43. (Ewing)
All members being in the position to help are sincerely urged to do so. The bock project has developedin a very satisfying way, since we started asking far help in earlier bulletins. Quite sane help has beendelivered and extended contacts established with foreign countries, including Japan, just to name one. Athome in the States the Smithscnian files is another inpartant source. We feel the project to be in a fin¬ishing state near to publication. Take again a good lock cn the queries above to see for possible assist¬ance. You may send the result to DEMS to be forwarded, but better, of course, is to use the followingadress:

90/1-5, right column "Help Wanted": I have now identi¬fied the 2 DE tracks on Cicala/Jazz Live: "Violet Blue"
(BLJ-8016) is from Capitol Transcriptions, 9Jun47, and NOTfrom 1946 as stated on sleeve; "Tea For Two*' (BLJ-8040) isfrom "Meadowbrook", Cedar Grove, NJ , 10Jun51, and thus thesame as on Swing Treasury ST-109 (see DEMS83/3-5).
But I still need xerox copies of labels of FDC-1018 andFDC-1021, and exact contents of Elec KV-301 and 302. (Moulÿ)
Xeroxes of Ariston 12029 and 12031 have been mailed toyou, being the closest one can come to FDC-1018 and -1021.

l3Nov48 Carnegie Hall Concert: What is the sequence oftitles? Were all titles used for AFRS "Jubilee"
programs? Can you confirm spelling of "Fantasm" and "Sym¬phonic Or Bust"? (Moul£)
To the best of our knowledge the sequence is as follows:National Anthem/3 Cent Stomp/Lady Of Lavender Mist/SuddenlyIt Jumped/Reminiscing In Tempo/She Wouldn't Be Mooved/Para-dise/"Symphomaniac": a) Symphonic Or Bust, b) How You Sound/Tootin' Through The Roof/My Friend/CLC/Don't Blame Me/Tat¬tooed Bride/Manhattan Murals/Lush Life/Hy'a Sue/Fantazm/YouOughta/Humoresque/Brown Betty/How High The Moon/Cotton Tail/Don't Be So Mean To Baby/Lover Come Back To Me/Trees/ IT'6Monday Ev'ry Day/Medley/Limehouse Blues/ Just A-Settin' AndA-Rockin'/B1ue Skies/Things Ain't What They Used To Be.14 selections were used for Jubilee 314, 317, 320 and 342.5 - Just Jazz 48.
12 - - not used for either of these AFRS tran¬scriptions.
We believe the spelling "Fantazm" to be the correct one.But two days later at Ithaka, in the concert it was judgingto the spelling on the Cornell Rhythm Club LP (see picturein DEMS89/1-9) it should be "Fantazin", which we believe tobe a misunderstanding between "in" and "m". For "SymphonicOr Bust" we believe the correct spelling to be as listedabove. (Aasland)

17Nov48, Ithaca, Cornell University: Is thequence in DESOR correct?
seems so, but we are not quite convinced.
\)
5May51, NYC "Birdland" (on Alto AL-710 (LP)):Prom which broadcast? Are the titles on the Alto LP in
sequence? (Moul<£)For Alto LP: see DEMS87/4-5 (picture of sleeve). Titles
are in sequence. Note that "VIP's Boogie" plus "Jam WithSam" are here under the title "Threesome". The be openedwith "A Train" (not on LP) and there was another "A Train"(not on LP) preceding "Sittin' And Rockin'" (title as onsleeve - see DEMS87/4-5). Also note that "Cheek To Cheek"is not by Ellington but Basie. The program closed withstill another "A Train" (not on LP). It's a pity that thespoken parts, very joyous, are taken out on the LP. Con¬cerning the date, we are very suspicious. We know Duke tohave played Birdland 21-30Jun51, and we believe this be tobelong somewhere during this period in June. (Aasland)
90/2-3 & 90/3-2, Bandstand BDCD-1509 (CD), also issuedon BDLP-1509 (LP). This is an Italian issue. The LP is
shorter by 2 tracks, "Satin Doll" and "Dim. & Cres. In Blue"being omitted. Anyway, another useless CD as everything wasissued before. (Moul£)
DEMS90/1-5 90/2-6 90/3-2, Magic AWE-19 & "AlhambraTheatre", Paris, 29oct58:
During ray research for my planned "Duke In France", thefollowing was found out from contemporay newspapers and mag¬azines:
Paris, Palais de Chaillot: Concerts at 6.30 PM and9.30 PM.
Paris, L'Alhambra-Maurice Chevalier: Concerts 6.30and 9.30.
Radio station Europe 1: A half hour be, beginningat 8.00 PM, with selections from 28oct58 Palaisde Chaillot performance(S).
Paris, Salle Pleyel: Concert at 9.15 PM.RTF-TV 10.05-10.35 PM from concert. (Mould)
20Nov58: Also see under "NEW RELEASES" in this issue.TheÿLP Magic AWE-19 was mentioned under "NEW RELEASES" in
DEMS86/1-1+2.I can not confirm a 30' be on 29oct58 with recordings ma¬
de on 28oct58. (Hoefsmit)We know of a telecast of 7 consequtive selections (live?)
and also a be with the same 7 consequtive selections plus 3more ones and 8 titles from the Medley. The latter ones areare not consequtive, and therefore belived to be from a beconsisted of pre-recorded material. (Hoefsmit/Aasland)
AB for 20Nov58 you may also see under "NEW RELEASES" inthis issue.
As for 29oct58 you may also look for Magic AWE-19 (LP) asmentioned under "NEW RELEASES" in DEMS86/2-1+2. (DEMS)

Radio station "Europe 1" archives:I can tell you from a phone call I had with somebody at
that radio station, that they are non-existent(!). Quite un¬believable. Only Mr. Frank Tenot, once a famous jazz broad¬caster on that station, and now head of it, can help us. Itis the same Europe 1 station that on 24Dec60 organized aChristmas Eve Service at the Palais de la Defense, at whicha number of French artists participated, and the same Dukementions in MIMM, page 143, and where he played "Come Sun¬day". The whole thing must have been recorded by "Europe 1".But what became of the tape? Here is another mystery 1 hopeto be able to shed some light on, someday. (Moul£)
Some comments: I know of a non-live broadcast from one ofthe complete 28oct58 concerts (or composed from both con¬certs same day). I also know that what is issued on MagicAWE-19 (LP) is taken from a broadcast by "Europe 1" from oneof the concerts, or from both, as performed 29oct58(see DEMS90/3-2). Two titles, "Together" and "Jeep's Blues"(nc) wererecently broadcast by Radio Denmark (see DEMS90/3-3, DR-42).These selections are from 29oct58. not as from "Nov(?)58" asmarked in DEMS90/3-3 (please notify). Consequently thisleads me to belive that there ought to be further 29oct58material to be found in the archives of Radio Denmark.
(Hoefsmit)
90/2-6 6 7, "Field Enterprises" Duke recording date:What Hoefsmit writes about the recording date of the 3
tracks confirms, what Jerry Valburn once told me: They wererecorded on 18Jul66 at the session, which produced the FAN¬TASY LP "The Pianist". "The Blues Is Waiting"(«The Shepherd)is probably one of the two takes issued on the FANTASY al¬bum, but "Tingling Is A Happiness" and "Dancers ..." must betwo titles from the session not used for the LP issue.
(Moule)"The Shepherd" on Field Enterprises differ from the two
takes used for Fantasy. (Aasland)On the Fantasy LP cover "The Shepherd" takes are marked 1
and 2, but on the CD labels the takes are numbered 2 and 3.(Hoefsmit)
We know of two takes for "Tingling ...", and three takesfor "Dancers In Love". (DEMS)
Club des Amateurs du Disque CAD 2051(F) (10"LP):Is there an album title for this LP? Could someone
please send me a xerox of sleeve and labels. (Moulÿ)
90/1-2, Echojazz(E) EJCD-04 (CD):This CD contains 3 additional tracks, from a "Basin
Street East", NYC, CBS 40' broadcast (also tra'nscribed byAFRS, parts used for their "Basin Street Jazz" No.15 - thispiece of info from Sjef Hoefsmit). The CD "bonus" tracks:
14Apr56 Caravan / Soph.Lady / Stompin' At The Savoy.This is new material earlier commercially not issued.
(Moul6)This be is usually listed aB closing with "Things Ain'tbut, (not usually known) has two more selections followingthe Station Break, namely "Saturday Night at the BasinStreet" and the full be comes to a close with "The Mooche".

DISCUSSIONS - ... (ctd.)J "My Old Flame" (1934): Can anyone confirm that the un-
edited version of this title with a Hay West vocal waswas first Issued on Caliban 6036 ? (and later copied onSandy Hook S.H.2098). (MouU)
Both versions are edited. Both are missing some bars,which are present on the other version.
For Caliban 6036 see DEMS84/4-6. For Sandy Hook we haveno info presently. (Hoef smit /Aasland )
\1 Columbia CL-919, "What Is Jazz?": Is "Take The A Train"as included at the start of Side 1 from Newport 1936
(DEMS88/5-1 ) , or from studio, 10Aug52, as stated on sleeve?(Moul 4 )
"A Train" was NOT recorded on 10Aug52. The correct dateis 30Jun52! This version was at least used for Col. ML-4639,7-1274 (EP), CL-830 , CK-40836; Philips BBL-7008, B-07008L,B-429004. Can this be of any help to you? (Aasland)

DEMS90/2-8, Koch CD 321-943-D1:_ Delete "December Blue" as contained on this CD. Koch
has the usual 14 tracks 86 on Capitol(H) 5C 052851 (LP).(Moul e ). MASTER SOUND SYSTEM seems to be a private transcript-
V ion "label". It comes as 3 separate LPs in plain whitesleeves (not in a box). Bert Bradfield is probably at theorigin of these "issues" of a very limited kind. I wonderhow many copies were pressed. The "Monterey Jazz Festival"concert, 18Sep65, was also issued on three "Master SoundSystem" transcriptions LPs. Klaus Getting sent me the piec¬es of information, as he owns a copy of each of them. Haveother collectors copies too, please let us know. (Moul4)

In the liner notes the matrix-number is given asUPAl-8539. We believe that this mx-no. refers tothe same title as recorded on lSep67, this timewith Duke accompanied by Harry Carney and AaronBell (DEMS88/1-1, right column). What we havehere is solo version.
Note: Fresh - never before issued in any form. Allother selections earlier issued on LP, but asfar as I can trace, not earlier on CD. (Hoef smit)
Vj89/3-4, Treasury Star Parade 231, 232, 233 transcript¬ions, contained in DETS-46:
I would like to know the origination, especially the locat¬ion (apparently a radio station studio). (Moulÿ)
So would I. We only know the sessions to have takenplace in New York, as stated in my "Wax Works - The Record¬ing Ban Period" (reference 43-60). Jerry Valbum once toldme the announcer is Jimmy Wallington, . which might serve tosome lead for future research efforts. (Aasland)

When originally recorded, the "M.C. Blue" was distorted atthe beginning of Ozzie Bailey's vocal. On the CD this hasbeen repaired using a couple of words taken from the secondrefrain.
Note: The recording of "Hawk Talks" above has for a longtime been considered to be from the Blue Note in Chicago inthe middle of 1953. (Hoefsmit)

(26)Continuing Ken Rattenbury 9 8 series
On 15 February 1973, during what was Duke El¬lington's penultimate European tour, he recorded anextended interview with British chat-shcw host Mi¬chael Parkinson before an invited audience at theBBC's television centre in London. The hour-longconversation, transmitted on 24 February 1973, wasa jqy, Ellington being on top form; liÿrt-heartedone moment, deeply serious the next, offering , over¬all, a fashinating glinpse into the day-to-dgy,year-by-year activities within his expansive musicalorbit. His composing, travelling, rrusicians pastand present, career highlights, and above all, hisregard for his chosen idiom, all came in for gener¬ous, lively comment — fashinating andriveting.Almost at the end of the program, this is whathappened:Michael Parkinson( to Duke Ellington): 'Could I fin¬ally ask you if you'd play for us ?'Duke Ellington: 'Play ... Me ?'M.P. : 'Yes. That piancplayer we saw on the tele¬vision ... the same one .. We'd love you to play.'( . . .applause, during which Duke walked over to thegrand piano. . . )D.E. : 'This is Billy Strayhom's LOTUS BLOSSOM...'And here is the first part (there will be five in

There were no MBSbroadcasts on Mondays, and this one was on a Monday.One of the things the be reveals, is that RN is stillwith the band (in "Wax Works" 45-76 left out by me),and both KD and JSrl take vocal parts during the be.

NEW RELEASES (ctd.):11 ) — 14 ) emanate from an "El lington-Cole-Vaughan", "Big Show"at the University of Michigan, 15Nov51. The beet possiblehas been done while processing the poor material. This "BigShow", as it was called, started out (?) at the Huston Au¬ditorium on 30oct51. then touring the country. Louis Bel Isonwas on during this period, and I think he is the drummer du-ing the whole actual portion above. Although Duke is unmis-takenly present, the orchestra backgrounds sound like anybig band backing a vocal artist. Among contributors to thisalbum we found, not surprisingly, Mr. Jerry Valburn.

all) of rry transcription of the ccrrplete performance, notated as played. Here, Duke Ellingtcn was carry¬ing cn a tradition he had initiated after Billy Streyhorn's untimely death in 1967, when Duke would dis¬miss his orchestra after their final number of a concert, then hold centre-stage with a solo renditionof LOIUS BLOSSOM. In this version, Ellington totally respects, minutely, Strayhom's original harmonisat¬ions (I can vouch for this, as I was fortunate, several years agp, in acquiring a photocopy of his orig¬inal manuscript of the piece) , but with his custernary brilliance of imagination and interpretation, El¬lington, throughout, introduces embellishments which are masterly and altogether delightful. New, to themusic:This opening 16-bar episode states the Strayhom theme with the minirron of decoration against a broken-chord continue in the left hand — gentle dynamics, crystal-clear piano tone, making superb use of thesustain pedal to enhance and develop the videly— voiced, attractive changes. This remains, to me, one ofEllington's finest, most sensitive performances, and it is interesting, i feel, to ccrrpare it with hiswell-known, well-loved version on ccrrmercial release. (Rattenbury )

When 2 concerts were to take place the same day,and also recorded, the first cne was usually usedby the technicians to balance the sound of theorchestra and, if in stereo, the stereo positions.Such recordings were almost never used, when afinal editing took place. However, for the reasonof musical qualities together with interestingstereo result, we have chosen to present the fol¬lowing from the first of two concerts at theParis Olynpia Theatre on 2 Feb 63. DENE has re¬stored the source material to reach best possibleresult in fidelity and balance.
