Aggiungi al carrelloTrade Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. 1976 Republication of 1940 Edition. 41 Pages. This is a 1976 Re-Publication of the 1940 Edition with a New Preface and Updated Biographical Notes. New Mexico and particularly Santa Fe, have long been focal points of interest in American history. The Indians, the Spaniards, Kearny, Fremont, Garrard, Billy the Kid, Kit Carson, Sister of Charity Blandina, Bishop Lamy, Bill Williams, Bartlett, Emory, and hundreds of other early travelers and inhabitants, provided the warp and woof of an exceptionally rich tapestry. New Mexico was admitted in the Union in 1912 and the 1920 census lists the total number of inhabitants at 360,350. The same year, the population of New York State was 10,385,227. The new museum flourished and was the anchor of one of the most prolific and exciting manifestations of art in America. This book of 1940 was the best proof of the usefulness of the venture. It was the brainchild of Dr. Edgar L. Hewett, then director of the Museum of New Mexico. It has been out of print for years and when we look at it now, we have somewhat the same feeling of loving interest that we might have for our graduation year book. …

The back-up trombonists include Urbie Green and Jimmy Cleveland, bass trombonists Bart Varsalone and Tom Mitchell, with Hank Jones piano, Milt Hinton bass, and Osie Johnson drums. J.J Johnson and Kai Winding here introduce the trombonium, an upright valve trombone, as the octet offers Dizzy Gillespie's "Night in Tunisia," "The Continental," "You're My Thrill," and Rodgers & Hammerstein's "Surrey With the Fringe On Top," others. (Although small photo to bottom of rear panel surely indicates J.J. Johnson was of the African-American persuasion -- as we suspect Jimmy Cleveland was, as well -- Arnold Roth's art to front panel for some reason shows eight white guys. No one at Columbia could have picked up the phone and said "Yo, Arnie, looks great, but we need a few little adjustments, here"?) Reduced from $12. Cover art by Arnold Roth (illustratore). …

In 1931 four young musicians who worked for Burrus Mills began playing an early morning radio show on a small radio station located in the Texas Hotel in Fort Worth. W. Lee O'Daniel, general manager of the flour mill, began announcing the program and originating it from the mil itself. The original Doughboys included Bob Wills, fiddle, and Milton Brown, vocals. From the early 1930s to the early 1950s, the Doughboys played a 15-minute program at 12:30 noon, five days a week, over a network of stations that covered Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana and New Mexico. In 1936, the Doughboys traveled to Hollywood to appear with Gene Autry in his first musical cowboy movies for Republic Pictures, "Oh, Susannah" and "The Big Show." Cuts here include "A Fool Such As I," "Tennessee Waggoner," "San Antonio Rose," "When It's Round-Up Time in Heaven," and a Texas medley including "Red River Valley" and "Yellow Rose of Texas."

Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm "stereo" (?) vinyl disc, a compilation on the Pickwick label, Pickwick SPC-3256, near-mint vinyl in a near-mint jacket, featuring "Rock the Joint," "Rock Around the Clock," "See You Later Alligator," Charles Calhoun's "Shake, Rattle & Roll" and "Flip Flop and Fly" (on which Calhoun shared songwriting credit with Lou Willie Turner), etc. Let us briefly consider the significance of Bill Haley and His Comets (or, as here, "the Comets.") Their early publicity and jacket notes showed no reticence about the fact that the band originally dubbed "Bill Haley and the Saddlemen" (1949-1952) introduced the new sound of "rock" (from Louis Jordan, Big Joe Turner, et al.) to their repertoire not out of any organic musical evolution, but simply because they found it got them more airplay than their original barn-dance playlist -- starting with their 1951 cover of Ike Turner's "Rocket 88," which then led to their 1952 release of "Rock the Joint." Switching to the Decca label, they had follow-up hits with Big Joe Turner's "Shake Rattle and Roll," and of course with "Rock Around the Clock," which was re-released to take advantage of the opening of the 1955 film "Blackboard Jungle." But this was not primarily a studio band, and Haley (1925-1981) -- once considered America's top cowboy yodeler -- long retained numbers like "Dance With the Dolly With the Hole in Her Stocking" in their stage show, surely confirming rock historian Nick Tosches' insistence that rock was NOT merely black music being played by white performers (though the Comets, like Elvis, certainly did cover their share of hits from the "Race Records" chart) but rather retained strong element of Western Swing. Lawrence Welk reported that when he first took his act to New York, the local promoter told him to drop his goofy onstage horseplay -- the bass player climbing up on his instrument and riding it like a pony, etc. But Welk found he got only a cool reception till he restored the stage antics, at which point his popularity boomed. Similarly, Haley's Comets -- especially acrobatic sax player Joey Ambrose and Marshall Lyle literally riding his string bass -- created a stage show that stayed popular in Europe long after America turned to the likes of Elvis Presley and Little Richard. Poorly researched jacket notes here by Robert Angus, editor, "Modern Hi Fi," begin with the claim that Haley wrote "Rock Around the Clock" -- actually properly credited on disc label here to M.C. Freedman-J. De Knight -- featured in the film Blackboard Jungle "that used Haley's recording as its theme." (The Richard Brooks film -- Glenn Ford, Sidney Poitier, Vic Morrow -- was in fact based on the novel of the same name by Evan Hunter -- also known as Ed McBain -- who'd quit teaching in disgust after two months at a vocational high school in the Bronx.) Said jacket notes spiral down from there, insisting rock and roll songs contain "coded messages . . . secret from the adult world." Whoa, dude! Reduced from $14.…
