* TALKING AND DRUM SOLOS (1946)
* COUNTRY BRASS BANDS OF THE SOUTH (1954)
Warren "Baby" Dodds (drums)
Johnny Dodds (clarinet)
Includes liner notes by Kevin Whitehead.
One of the most important pieces of vinyl ever waxed, TALKING AND DRUM SOLOS is the first recorded album of drum solos- by one of the great pioneers of jazz percussion: Warren "Baby" Dodds.
A mainstay of the early Chicago jazz scene alongside his brother, clarinetist Johnny Dodds- and inspiration to countless jazz trapmen (including Han Bennink- who has cited TALKING as his favorite record), this endlessly inventive original was born in the Big Easy in 1898. Dodds made his mark in the mid-30s, peaking as the featured artist at a 1946 Carnegie Hall Pops Concert.
The cornerstone of our remastered UMS reissue is Dodds' rare1946 Folkways Records 10", featuring him playing and (true to the title) talking about drumming styles of of the early jazz era, as recorded by the legendary Mose Asch. Also assembled here for your infotainment & contextual purposes are twenty bonus tracks from Folkways Records' COUNTRY BRASS BANDS OF THE SOUTH, VOLUME ONE collection, recorded by Frederic Ramsey Jr. Ramsey, a Guggenheim Fellow who edited the TALKING session, also recorded many strange & wonderful brass bands from Alabama, Louisiana & Mississippi, circa 1954. These recordings clearly demostrate the creative & adventurous sounds that these early brass bands were capable of back in the day.
Capping it all off are deeply illuminating liner notes by well-regarded writer Kevin Whitehead, frequent contributor to THE WIRE, Chicago Reader, and author of NEW DUTCH SWING. Under license from Smithsonian Folkways.
Baby Dodds
Active Decades: '20s, '30s, '40s and '50s
Born: Dec 24, 1898 in New Orleans, LA
Died: Feb 14, 1959 in Chicago, IL
Genre: Jazz
Styles: New Orleans Jazz
Arguably the first important jazz drummer, Baby Dodds was one of the earliest to vary his patterns during a performance; a strong example of his adventurous style can be heard on a trio performance (with Jelly Roll Morton and Baby's brother Johnny) of "Wolverine Blues" in 1927. A major influence on Gene Krupa, Dodds worked in New Orleans with Willie Hightower, Bunk Johnson, Oscar Celestin, and others and played with Fate Marable's riverboat band in 1918. He joined King Oliver in San Francisco in 1922 and settled in Chicago the following year. In addition to recording with Oliver's classic Creole Jazz Band, Dodds was an important part of sessions led by Jelly Roll Morton and Louis Armstrong's Hot Seven. He remained in Chicago for decades, performing and recording regularly with his brother, Johnny Dodds, until the clarinetist's death in 1940. During the traditional jazz revival, Baby played with Jimmie Noone, Sidney Bechet, Bunk Johnson, and Art Hodes, appeared on the This Is Jazz radio broadcasts of 1947, and visited Europe with Mezz Mezzrow the following year. During 1945-1946, he recorded the first unaccompanied drum solos. Despite ill health in the 1950s, Baby Dodds kept playing until two years before his death; his memoirs are well worth reading.
