On This Day

July 7th in Jazz History…

  • Count Basie recorded the classic "One O'clock Jump" along with "Smarty", "John's Idea" and "Listen My Children and You Shall Hear" for Decca Records in 1937.
  • Twenty years later, the Basie's band performed their historic Newport concert in Freebody Park, Rhode Island in 1957.
  • The year prior, in 1956, also at the Newport Jazz Festival, Duke Ellington and His Orchestra gave a legendary performance that has become a true piece of Jazz history. Those in attendance will never forget Paul Gonsalves performing 27 choruses of epic tenor saxophone on the 15 minute version of "Diminuendo and Crescendo in Blue".
  • Also on this day, Benny Goodman's Orchestra recorded the Mary Lou Williams composition and arrangement "Roll 'em" back in 1937 for Bluebird Records.
  • And, bebop lost a great one on this day back in 1950. Trumpeter Fats Navarro died in New York City at the age of 26.
