An important trombonist in the Dixieland/New Orleans jazz world since he played with Al Hirt in the 1950s, Bob Havens was part of the band on the Lawrence Welk Show for 22 years, usually being featured on the occasional dixieland numbers. However there is nothing corny about Havens' playing, which is inspired by Jack Teagarden and the more technically skilled New Orleans players. On Back Home In New Orleans, Havens and a top-notch septet perform tunes that mostly date from the 1920s though "Rosa Is Her Name" and "When The Bloom Is On The Sage" are of more recent vintage. Havens takes occasional vocals but it is his trombone playing that is of greatest interest. The uncredited arrangements for the group are also excellent, alternating solo space with arranged and jammed ensembles. Trumpeter Connie Jones (sometimes purposely hinting at Bix Beiderbecke) and the reeds of Tom Fischer and the relatively unknown Otis Bazoon are well featured. Such warhorses as "Old Man River," "Louisiana" and "Wolverine Blues" are played with some fresh ideas and subtle surprises. A fine outing. ~

Bob Havens
Active Decade: '60s
Born: May 03, 1930 in Quincy, IL
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Dixieland, New Orleans Jazz, Mainstream Jazz
A solid trombonist with strong technical skills and a warm sound, Bob Havens has primarily been heard in dixieland settings through the years. A natural musician who came from a musical family, Havens played violin and piano in addition to trombone as a child. He performed locally and came to fame for his work with George Girard (1956-57) and particularly Al Hirt (1957-60). Havens became a longtime member of the Lawrence Welk Orchestra in 1960, staying for over two decades and often participating in the Welk Show's dixieland segment. However that "day job" did not result in his jazz abilities being diluted. Havens has been a fixture at dixieland and mainstream jazz festivals since the 1960's and in the 1990's was still very much in his musical prime. Bob Havens recorded as a leader for Southland in 1960 and 1964.
