Physical disability is no bar to musicianship - indeed, in some instances such as the blind keyboard players George Shearing and Ray Charles, the enhanced hearing faculties have actually been an advantage. Losing limbs is more problematic, but not always insurmountable. Take losing an arm and playing trumpet: normally one arm gives support (and the hand can be used for muting effects, etc.), the other facilitates the hand which actually operates the valves. Playing with only one arm - inconvenient, but not impossible. Enter Joseph Manone.This compilation is of the 'happy' songs Wingy recorded at the height of his recording success with "Isle Of Capri". If not all the lyrics were actually happy in content, then Manone made sure that the overall effect was the desired one at the time of Depression - a lifting of spirits. Everything received the unique Manone treatment, even (unbelievably?) "On The Good Ship Lollipop", which owed nothing to that other lifter of spirits of the time, Miss Shirley Temple. There is little doubt that Louis Prima, also born in New Orleans but eleven years Wingy's junior, took a lead from him, and although unlike Manone, Prima forsook Dixieland-style jazz early in his career, his vocal styling continued to recall that of the older man.

Wingy Manone made these 24 good time small-band swing recordings for the Vocalion, Okeh, Banner, Perfect and Bluebird imprints between January 15, 1935 and July 7, 1936, cheerfully rasping the Tin Pan Alley lyrics, blowing his trumpet and egging the band on in the manner of Louis Armstrong or Fats Waller. The Waller connection is most evident in five titles that qualify as Waller covers and were certainly perceived as such in 1935 and 1936: "I Believe in Miracles," "Lulu's Back in Town," "West Wind," "I've Got My Fingers Crossed" and "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter." Perhaps the funniest and most endearing tune is "The Broken Record," a love song that periodically sticks on one riff in imitation of a skipping 78 rpm phonograph record. (Carla Bley did her own bizarre update of this idea in 1978 when she made her entire ten-piece modern jazz ensemble skip like a 33-and-a-1/3 rpm record on "Musique Mecanique, Pt. 3"). Manone's bands were often peppered with players as brilliant and energetic as he was. The strongest examples on this collection are trombonists George Brunies and Jack Teagarden and reedmen Bud Freeman, Joe Marsala and Eddie Miller. If this little taste leaves you hankering for more Manone, seek out his complete works as presented on the Classics Chronological Series.

Wingy Manone
Active Decades: '20s, '30s, '40s, '50s and '60s

Wingy Manone was an excellent Dixieland trumpeter whose jivey vocals were popular and somewhat reminiscent of his contemporary, Louis Prima. He had lost his right arm in a streetcar accident when he was ten, but Manone (who Joe Venuti once gave one cuff link for a Christmas present) never appeared to be handicapped in public (effectively using an artificial arm). He played trumpet in riverboats starting when he was 17, was with the Crescent City Jazzers (which later became the Arcadian Serenaders) in Alabama, and made his recording debut with the group in the mid-'20s. He worked in many territory bands throughout the era before recording as a leader in 1927 in New Orleans. By the following year, Manone was in Chicago and soon relocated to New York, touring with theater companies. His "Tar Paper Stomp" in 1930 used a riff that later became the basis for "In the Mood." In 1934, Manone began recording on a regular basis and after he had a hit with "The Isle of Capri" in 1935, he became a very popular attraction. Among his sidemen on his 1935-1941 recordings were Matty Matlock, Eddie Miller, Bud Freeman, Jack Teagarden, Joe Marsala, George Brunies, Brad Gowans, and Chu Berry. In 1940, Manone appeared in the Bing Crosby movie Rhythm on the River, he soon wrote his humorous memoirs -Trumpet on the Wing (1948), and he would later appear on many of Crosby's radio shows. Wingy Manone lived in Las Vegas from 1954 up until his death and he stayed active until near the end, although he only recorded one full album (for Storyville in 1966) after 1960.
