part 1 1944 - 1957


Nearly 6500 clicks now!


At the very beginning you can find a short biography written by Walter Bruyninckx.

Tenor sax. Born in New York City, March 2, 1921 and died in Culver City, California, November 3, 1986. Mostly self-taught, he was already playing at Clark Monroe's Uptown House in Harlem eight months after buying his first instrument. Joined Cootie Williams' band 42-43, Lucky Millinder, Andy Kirk, Louis Armstrong for short periods. Formed his own combo, playing mostly at Minton's 45-52. Joined Count Basie in May 52 but left one year later. Again own group with changing rhythm sections until February 55. Took Shirley Scott in his trio and they stayed together for a long time, with the exception of short periods when Lockjaw joined Count Basie's band, mostly when they toured abroad. Out of the active music scene from June 63 to October 64, when Lockjaw was working as a booking agent. He then joined again Count Basie until 1973, this time not only as a soloist but also as road manager. In the late 70's he was mostly performing as leader. Eddie belongs to the swing / mainstream school and there is definitely very little influence of modern hard bop or post bop in his playing. He stays very close to the earlier blues and swing forms and expresses himself in a funky and rocking style without however using the more simple phrasings of the honking rhythm and blues saxes. Eddie always keeps a distinctive way of expression although his phrases can be fiery and wailing. Eddie is at his best in small groups which give him the possibility to stretch out in extended solo work. He tackles his solos with a lot of maturity, improvising along the melodic line of the theme. Together with Buddy Tate, he was the most versatile player of what was left of the mainstream school of players of which Hawkins, Byas, Webster, Quebec, Berry and other tenor greats have been the founders.


Discography
Some notes at the very beginning. It contains all known (to me) recordings. This means not only 78 rpm, 45 rpm, 33 rpm, Videos, DVD's,  but also until now known live-recordings of one the greatest tenor players in the history of jazz.

Architecture (issued in three parts)

1. leader, personell, recording date, location, matrix-numbers, title, running time, all issues
2. Notes (if any)
3. Issues again with title (in very few cases unknown to me)
4. covers with issue numbers

Dr. Michael Frohne / Lauchringen

P.S. There are no recordings with Louis Armstrong listed in Hans Westerberg’s very exact discography on records, films, radio and television.


Now let us start at the very beginning of 1944 when "Lockjaw" was recorded the first time - not sittin' in as a newcomer with some no-name local beginners - but with a fantastic All Stars group of which all musicians are still known and praised in 2019  .....
