Our Essential Collection this time out finds us greeting one of the greatest cornettists of the 20th Century, perhaps not as universally well known as Bix Beiderbecke but arguably as great a musician.
Muggsy Spanier was born to French and Irish parents in Chicago in 1901 and following his career we can almost trace the history of jazz itself, from New Orleans to Chicago to the West Coast via Dixieland to Big Band Swing and Be Bop to small band units. It was in Chicago that Muggsy heard all the early jazz greats from the legendary Dixieland Jazz Band itself to the New Orleans Rhythm Kings and the mighty King Oliver’s Creole Jazz Band, soon to be joined by a young trumpet player called Louis Armstrong! It was in fact Oliver’s cornet that appealed to the young Muggsy and he duly took up the instrument he was to go on to make his own. Our superbly re-mastered double CD contains tracks from throughout his career starting as far back as 1924 with the Bucktown Five. We follow him into the Ted Lewis Band where he was the featured hot soloist and then jump ahead to 1936 where we find Muggsy with the Ben Pollack Orchestra. By 1939 Muggsy Spanier’s Ragtime Band was in full cry until the mid 1940’s when musical fashion’s changed and he found himself joining the Bob Crosby Orchestra. The 1940’s continued to see Muggsy switching bands from Crosby to Milt Gabler’s Commodore label band and back to Ted Lewis where the one consistent was the swinging sound of his cornet featuring alongside legends such as Miff Mole and Pee Wee Russell. In the 1950’s he again formed his own band and went on the road playing good jazz standards and popular songs with the inevitable changing line ups. By 1957 Muggsy had moved to the San Francisco area settling down with his wife where he found steady work with the locally based Earl Hines band. He led a relatively quiet life until his death in 1967.
Muggsy Spanier
Active Decades: '20s, '30s, '40s, '50s and '60s
Born: Nov 09, 1906 in Chicago, IL
Died: Feb 12, 1967 in Sausalito, CA
Genre: Jazz
Muggsy Spanier was a predictable but forceful cornetist who rarely strayed far from the melody. Perfectly at home in Dixieland ensembles, Spanier was also an emotional soloist (equally influenced by King Oliver and Louis Armstrong) who was an expert at using the plunger mute. He started on cornet when he was 13, played with Elmer Schoebel's band in 1921, and first recorded in 1924. Spanier was a fixture in Chicago throughout the decade (appearing on several important early records) before joining Ted Lewis in 1929. Although Lewis was essentially a corny showman, Spanier's solos gave his band some validity during the next seven years. After a stint with Ben Pollack's orchestra (1936-1938), Spanier became seriously ill and was hospitalized for three months. After he recovered, the cornetist formed his famous eight-piece "Ragtime Band" and recorded 16 Dixieland performances for Bluebird (later dubbed The Great Sixteen) that virtually defined the music of the Dixieland revival movement. But because his group actually preceded the revival by a couple years, it soon had to break up due to lack of work. Muggsy joined Bob Crosby for a time, had his own short-lived big band, freelanced with Dixieland bands in New York, and starting in 1950 he gradually relocated to the West Coast. During 1957-1959 Spanier worked with Earl Hines' band and he continued playing up until his retirement in 1964, touring Europe in 1960 and always retaining his popularity in the Dixieland world.
