As a self-taught jazz and blues musician, Leon Redbone played by ear, sometimes changing the chords of established tunes, never rehearsing with a band, and not following set lists. Leon favored material from the Tin Pan Alley era, circa 1890 to 1910.
Leon Redbone (born Dickran Gobalian) died May 30, 2019 at the age of 69.

"Yes! We Have No Bananas" Turns 100
100 years ago today, Frank Silver and Irving Cohn published and copyrighted their novelty number “Yes! We Have No Bananas”. I don’t usually do entire posts on Tin Pan Alley songs but this anniversary seemed worth marking, as it was one of the most iconic and popular songs of the late vaudeville era, and was performed and recorded by Eddie Cantor, Al Jolson, Billy Murray, Billy Jones of the…

How many of you knew this song was about a female baseball fan? SATURDAY MATINEE MUSIC VIDEO “Take Me Out to The Ballgame” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRq8AWn3oGE …Most everyone knows the chorus to this song, usually led by a loud organ after the 7th inning at baseball games everywhere. However, many people don’t know the verses, which are about an obssessive female baseball fan named Katie Casey. She’d rather go to ballgames than go out on dates with her boyfriend. When I play this song in assisted living homes it never fails to get folks roused up!
More Fun Facts:
1. The song was copyrighted in 1908 and first recorded on cylinder, making it an early example of a (pre-shellac/vinyl) “hit record.” It was also the era when sheet music was the dominant way people played music at home, and sales skyrocketed.
2. It was composed by Tin Pan Alley songwriters Jack Norworth and Albert von Tilzer (later known for “Shine on Harvest Moon”)—both of whom had never been to a baseball game up to that point.
3. My favorite sample is The Marx Brothers 1935 film, A NIGHT AT THE OPERA, when the orchestra is tricked into playing it in the middle of Verdi’s Il Trovatore Overture.

229: Ella Fitzgerald // ...Sings the Cole Porter Song Book
Tumblr media
Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Cole Porter Song Book Ella Fitzgerald 1956, Verve
Cole Porter was the grandson of the richest man in Indiana, a homosexual of unimaginable power, the cleverest socialite since the death of Oscar Wilde. I’m not sure it’d be possible to write songs of such manner-born urbanity without his background, rhymes tumbling down grand staircase rhythms like a platinum slinky of immaculate design, asking the existential questions as only the fabulously wealthy would (“should I order cyanide / or order champagne?”). But Ella Fitzgerald, whose stable working class upbringing dissolved after her mother’s death into a teenaged existence barely above the streets, proved that anyone with sufficient ability (and, importantly, diction) could be these songs’ finest interpreter. The substantial liner notes to my ’76 reissue of Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Cole Porter Song Book don’t mention Porter’s sexuality; they also refer to the fact that a teenaged Fitzgerald looked so poor that numerous impresarios refused to even listen to her tryouts with such genteel vagueness that you get the impression she just had terrible fashion sense. But in truth that sort of mannered elision is the way both artists, each for their own reasons having to do with security and sensibility, would’ve wanted it. On the Porter Song Book, they are simply, archetypally Ella and Cole, elegance and wit personified.

Even more than 65 years on, it is hard to imagine a greater soundtrack to those special nights when we permit ourselves luxury. It’s in the songs themselves of course, splendid renditions of Porter’s finest (“Begin the Beguine,” “Night and Day,” “You Do Something to Me” and on and on), and in their generous apportioning at eight songs per side over two LPs. Whether you’re listening intently over a glass of wine at home, or if during a party you allow your ear to drift from the conversational hubbub to the glamorous strains that have been subtly guiding the energy of the room all night, there is something marvellous about the Porter Song Book’s inexhaustibility. There is always a song you’ve passed over two dozen times before that suddenly reveals its magic, a couplet that slides itself into your wallet of timeless bon mots (on this listen: “there's someone I'm trying so hard to forget / don't you want to forget someone too?”).
