The Savory Collection 1935–1940 is a compilation album with recordings a. a. by Count Basie , Coleman Hawkins , John Kirby , Lester Young , Lionel Hampton , Fats Waller and Teddy Wilson , which were made between 1935 and 1940. The sound engineer William Savory used professional equipment to record jazz concerts and radio broadcasts for private purposes between 1935 and 1941. After the Savory collection was discovered in his estate, it was acquired by the National Jazz Museum in Harlem in 2010. Released in 2016, initially in individual editions, a six-CD compilation was released by Mosaic Records in 2018 .

background

The material for the compilation comes from the personal collection of part-time sound engineer William Alcott Savory (1916–2004), who transcribed radio broadcasts in New York as his main job. In his spare time he visited the jazz clubs of New York and other cities such as Boston, Asbury Park and Chicago to record performances by well-known swing musicians. He also made radio recordings from the Café Society , Famous Door, Panther Room, Onyx Club and Savoy Ballroom jazz clubs , as well as recordings of radio programs from WNEW, CBS and NBC with jazz stars of the time. The 108-title collection (in the present edition) remained hidden from the public for over seventy years. So includes The Savory Collection

After Savory died in 2004, his son Eugene Desavouret discovered the shellac and aluminum records in his father's estate - a total of 975 records. Savory's recordings were handed over to the National Jazz Museum in Harlem in 2010 and then cataloged by Scott Wenzel of Mosaic Records together with jazz historian Loren Schoenberg , director and archivist of the National Jazz Museum , and restored by Doug Pomeroy.

reception

The music press reacted positively to the release of the Savory Collection ; George W. Harris called them (referring to the detective novel of the same name by Dashiell Hammett ) as the " Maltese hawk of jazz". Even if you have heard most of the pieces countless times, there is “a freshness, energy and enthusiasm that could never be reproduced.” The recordings here captured the mood of swing at the moment it was created and perfected became, sparkling with energy, as it could only happen in the years of origin, before schemes and formulas finally occurred.

Giovanni Russonello wrote enthusiastically in The New York Times that the Savory Collection was something like "the holy grail of the swing era, perhaps the most entertaining single collection jazz fans have ever seen." When listening to the Savory Collection , one could imagine how the the era of radio stopped feeling seduced. Russonello particularly highlighted the long live version of Coleman Hawkins' classic "Body and Soul" from the Fiesta Danceteria in Manhattan, the overwhelming drumming Chick Webbs and the two full CDs with the Count Basies Orchestra in its early phase, including the successful performance on the Carnival of Swing Festival in 1938.

In the opinion of co-producer Loren Schoenberg, finding the Savory collection can be compared with discovering a previously unknown play by Shakespeare or an unknown novel by Mark Twain . It is something like a musical time capsule that you will hardly ever find again. You will never hear sounds you have experienced before in a remarkable sound quality.

Collin Fleming wrote in JazzTimes about The Savory Collection Vol. 3 - Honeysuckle Rose: Fats Waller and Friends : "There is something wonderfully gross and crude in this third episode of the Savory Collection"; The core of this collection is "a huge jam session" with Pee Wee Russell (clarinet), Bud Freeman (tenor saxophone), Jack Teagarden (trombone and vocals) and Fats Waller on piano, distributing his jive vocals, as well as trumpeter Charlie Teagarden , guitarist Eddie Condon , bassist Artie Shapiro and drummer Zutty Singleton . This is "definitely a Swing Dream Team". One of the highlights of this jam session only among musicians is the author Waller's fluid game in "Honeysuckle Rose".

According to Collin Fleming, the ten titles of John Kirby's sextet are particularly relevant. “While one usually thinks of Kirby's music as something massively spiritual with classic flourishes”, these were not included in the collection. The author highlights Kirby's bluesy version of Honeysuckle Rose , with Leo Watson's vocals and his coloratura in the chord changes. Other highlights include Albert Ammons ' “Boogie Woogie Stomp”, Chick Webb's version of George Gershwin's “Liza” from 1939 from the Café Society with Roy Eldridge on trumpet, which contains drum solos like never again in Webb's career and is among the best percussive moments in counted in the history of jazz .

On Down Beat, John McDonough, in his review of The Savory Collection Volume 3 , explained how jazz has always felt uncomfortable in a closed society of acceptance. Always mindful of its cultural autonomy, a group of musicians turned to “true jazz” in the late 1930s, when swing was at the height of its popularity, at the time Basie, Goodman, Ellington, Lester Young and Charlie Christian were at the peak of their careers and making too many commercial concessions in the eyes of jazz purists. When the first re-releases of early jazz appeared, rebels around Eddie Condon as their lawyer and publicist discovered Dixieland as a kind of retro-avant-garde, away from the jazz-pop mainstream. The jam sessions by Fats Waller, Eddie Condon, Albert Ammons and others at the Savory Collection demonstrated the abilities of these bands with their impulsiveness and spontaneity.

So be as the title of "Boogie Woogie" "with his shuffling bass and simple riffs , 1939 just as retro as the ragtime ; an archaic contrast to the nuanced modernity of Teddy Wilson and Art Tatum . "One of the pioneers of this style, Albert Ammons , can be heard with" Boogie Woogie Stomp "," basically a piano piece that was ultimately the basis of Tommy Dorsey's " Boogie Woogie ”from 1937 and immortalized during the war with“ Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy ”who became the Andrews Sisters . Here it is, rediscovered but in its original pub atmosphere. "

The author also pays special attention to the sessions organized by Eddie Condon, with Jack and Charlie Teagarden, Pee Wee Russell, Bud Freeman and guest star Fats Waller. They captured relaxed ensemble play and carefree solos, which the purists of the swing era would have believed the big bands could not deliver. Along with Waller, Russell and the slippery elegance of Jack Teagarden, they are all in combative form; the blazing energy and substance belied the formulaic stereotypes of Dixieland. As an example, McDonough cites the short “China Boy” with clarinetist Edmond Hall.

In contrast, the two recordings of the Benny Carter Orchestra reflected the more contemporary standards of the swing era, as did the sizzling solos of Roy Eldridge with the CBS house band of the Saturday Night Swing Club show.

On the threshold of the future (of jazz) are, in McDonough's opinion, the ten tingling pieces by the John Kirby Sextet from his CBS show. While the Condon branch of the jazz world prefers the freedom of devotion in a small ensemble, this group prefers tightly knitted miniatures with the discipline of a big band.

The soul of the Kirby sound had its center in Charlie Shavers, whose stuffed trumpet imposed a surgical, mostly delicate precision on the mechanism of the complicated music. Shavers also wrote the majority of the repertoire, which includes standards such as "Undecided" and "Pastel Blue" (Thelonious Monk used the latter in his composition "Blue Monk"). Shavers and the pianist Billy Kyle had a stimulating freshness as heard in the swinging numbers "Rehearsin 'for a Nervous Breakdown" and "Front and Center". The substantial arrangements should be part of every jazz study program, sums up McDonough.

At the end of 2018, the Savory Collection received the Prix ​​de la Meilleure Réédition from the French Académie du Jazz . In the NPR Jazz Critics Poll , the album came fourth in the Rare Avis category , ahead of Charles Mingus ' Jazz in Detroit / Strata Concert Gallery / 46 Selden .
