RICHARD BARNES BLACKBIRDSOCIETY ORCHESTRA REVIEW

By Bill Hoffman

TSJS veteran and cornetist Danny Tobias returns atthe helm of his own quintet for the first time sinceMarch, 2016. A much sought-after musicianidentified by his lyrical phrasing and fat, relaxedtone, Tobias can frequently be heard performingwith the Midiri Brothers, Jerry Rife's RhythmKings, Stan Rubin, Jon-Erik Kellso, VinceGiordano's Nighthawks, Ed Wise and his NewOrleans Jazz Band, and other leading traditionaljazz and swing groups.

The April concert by Richard Barnes' BlackbirdSociety Orchestra could be succinctly summed upby two 1920s song titles. One was played at theconcert, and it's very likely the orchestra has theother one in its book but didn't play it this time.The titles are "I'm in the Seventh Heaven," theDeSylva, Brown and Robinson (not Henderson onthis one) tune that was played, and "I'm MoreThan Satisfied," a composition by Raymond Klagesand Fats Waller. Bix Beiderbecke is on recordingsof both tunes, with Paul Whiteman and theChicago Loopers, respectively.

The BSO first played for Tri-State in March of lastyear at Wallingford to an SRO crowd. Therefore,in order to allow more members to hear them, webooked them at our larger venue in Haddonfield,and, satisfyingly, quite a few Pennsylvaniamembers crossed the river to attend-many moreon a percentage basis than we usually get.

The 21-piece band contained four reedmen(including baritone and soprano saxes, which wedon't often see), three trumpets, four trombones,four violins, and drums, piano, tuba, and specialguest Vince Giordano, leader of the Nighthawks inNew York, holding forth on bass sax and stringbass. There was even a small accordion. LeaderRichard Barnes was on guitar and vocals.

Every October for the past eight years, Richard hasled an annual tribute to South Philadelphia nativesEddie Lang (guitar) and Joe Venuti (violin); thisyear's observance will be at the Kimmel Center onSunday, October 21 (no conflict with our Octoberconcert!). Lang and Venuti's music is part of the

Buddy Rich at 100Reprinted from “swingandbeyond.com”

Bernard “Buddy” Rich, perhaps the mosttechnically astonishing drummer in the history ofjazz, was born on September 30, 1917, in Brooklyn,New York. His parents were vaudeville performers,and almost from infancy Buddy was onstageperforming with them. His prodigious drummingtalent manifested itself when Buddy was onlyeighteen months old. This led to a very successfulvaudeville career for Rich, which lasted through hischildhood years.

The inimitable drum legend Buddy Rich doing what he did best

By 1937, he began hiscareer as a jazzdrummer, first withJoe Marsala, then in1938 with BunnyBerigan. Berigan’sswinging bandprovided Rich with anexcellent laboratory to

experiment with techniques of driving a big bandthat he later perfected.

Rich’s big break came when he joined Artie Shaw’sband at the beginning of 1939. With Shaw, hisstunning drumming technique was first put ondisplay before a national radio and movie audience.From Shaw he went, in late 1939, to TommyDorsey, who featured him as a soloist almost asmuch as Gene Krupa was featured in his own band.His tenure with Dorsey lasted until 1945, althoughhe did serve in the Marine Corps during World WarII. After World War II he led his own big bandswith modest success in the late 1940s. He workedfor many bandleaders in the 1950s and into the1960s, including Les Brown, Tommy Dorsey, andmost notably, Harry James. He also worked exten-sively with Norman Granz’s Jazz at thePhilharmonic, and on his own with small groups.In 1966, Rich formed a big band, which he led withconsiderable success, until his death. Rich washelped immeasurably in this endeavor by televisionpersonality Johnny Carson, who was an amateurdrummer, a personal friend, and an idolator. Richappeared on Carson’s Tonight Show dozens oftimes from the 1960s to the 1980s. In addition tohis virtuoso drumming, Rich would easily tradewitticisms with Carson. Rich also had an explosivetemper and the sidemen in his last bands took

orchestra's book, and several selections from itwere played. Lang's great-niece Bethann Massarowas in the audience.

The concert opened with the BSO's (and the LittleRascals' TV show) theme, followed without a breakby "Smile When the Raindrops Fall," a pleasantenough but not widely known ballad that several20s dance bands recorded. Next came Eddie Lang'sfirst tune recorded with Bing Crosby, "At Twilight."Richard did the vocal, as he did on all but four ofthe fully two dozen songs played. Some might haveobjected to the number of vocals, and while Richardis better remembered as a guitarist (and jazzscholar) than as a singer, his vocals were certainlyadequate, and I found nothing objectionable inthem. Many of the tunes played have very catchy, ifnot humorous, lyrics that warranted an airing. Theinstrumental numbers were "Clementine (fromNew Orleans)," "Dardanella," "Dinah" (an audiencerequest, fulfilled using a 1938 arrangement, eventhough the song dates from 1927), and Ellington's"East St. Louis Toodle-oo." Whiteman's recordingof "Dardanella" also had no vocal, so the BSOfaithfully adhered to the original.

Of the 21 musicians on stage, several turned inmultiple noteworthy solos: Joe Venuti's violinparts; Rob Ford on cornet, with very good re-creations of Bix's solos; Joe Smith on clarinet andalto; and, of course, Vince Giordano on bass sax.But the main feature of the afternoon was theensemble work, as it was with Whiteman, whoseband was approximately the same size andinstrumentation as the BSO. In this aspect, theBSO excelled. Another notable offering was"Rhythm King," a tune recorded by Bix and HisGang and by the Coon-Sanders Nighthawks, whichfeatured only seven pieces.

The programmed finale was the epic "Happy Feet"from the 1930 film specifically built around theWhiteman band, The King of Jazz (which hasrecently been released on DVD, and, I'm told,immeasurably enhanced quality-wise). Thisrendition more closely replicated Whiteman'sversion than of any of his tunes that were playedduring the concert. It brought a call for an encore:"You're the Cream in My Coffee."

And with the audience being "more than satisfied,"it's a safe bet that the Blackbird Society Orchestrawill be back at Tri-State in the next year or so.

delight in surreptitiously recording his rages toband members within the confines of the band bus.Buddy Rich died on April 2, 1987, in Los Angeles,California.

Berigan’s tenor sax star Georgie Auld related howRich got into the Berigan band:

“Y’know I met Buddy when I was 14 and he was 16, whichmeans we knew each other for 54 years. I got him in BunnyBerigan’s band and I got him in Artie Shaw’s band. He and Iboth lived in Brooklyn. Bunny was looking for a drummer,he was upgrading the band at the time, and I said ‘there’s abuddy of mine that’s a genius behind the drums but he can’tread a note of music.’ Bunny said ‘well, that’s no good.’ Inthose days we played theaters and we usually had 5 acts ofvaudeville. He said, ‘What’s gonna happen when we play atheater and we get a dance act or something and he can’tread music?’ I said, ‘He’ll do more without reading than any30 drummers you get that can read.’ Then Bunny said, ‘Allright let him sit in for a tune.’ The exact same thing happenedwith Artie Shaw.”

Rich joined the Berigan band at Manhattan Beachin New York City in early July 1938. DickWharton, Berigan’s guitarist then, remembered thegig, and Rich’s impact on the Berigan band: “Man-hattan Beach was an amusement park with anopen-air bandstand next to Coney Island. JohnnyBlowers had just left and Georgie Auld was Bunny’scontact for enticing the young Buddy Rich awayfrom Joe Marsala and persuading him it was agreat opportunity for him. Buddy was loud fromthe very start and Bunny would have to insist onhis cutting down the volume. But Bunnyapparently liked the rhythmic ‘figures’ Rich playedand had Buddy’s ‘licks’ worked into some of thearrangements.” The Berigan band, with their newdrummer, played at Manhattan Beach for oneweek, closing there on July 11. Buddy Rich began toslowly settle in.

After the Manhattan Beach stand, they played one-nighters west to Michigan, including one at theQueen’s Ball for the National Cherry Festival atTraverse City, Michigan on July 13. They openedon Friday July 15, at the Fox Theater in Detroit, fora one-week engagement. Here is the Detroit FreePress review of the show that the Berigan band wasa part of:

“Berigan blows into the Fox with his trumpet and band tokeep the jitterbugs happy and it’s a lively package of talentthat Berigan has with him in the stage show. Bunny’s band isplenty smooth and keeping up the festivities are the FrazeeSisters, song stars of Billy Rose’s Casa Manana, returning bypopular demand, three sophisticated ladies whose

knockabout antics get plenty of laughs. Sharpe andArmstrong do a very clever satire on ballroom dancing, andRuth Gaylor and Dick Wharton sing several popular lyrics. Itis sixty minutes of lively stage fare to accompany the movie,We’re Going to Be Rich, starring Gracie Fields, VictorMcLaglen and Brian Donlevy.”

It was apparent to those inside the world of swingin the fall of 1938 that Artie Shaw’s band, aftermore than two years of only marginal success, wasnow headed for much greater popularity. Shawfinally had enough cash-flow each week tostrengthen his band. The most drastic changehowever, was the replacement of tenor saxophonistRonnie Perry with Georgie Auld. Auld could holdhis own with any of the better young (he was 19when Artie hired him) tenor players then, and was acrack section player as well. While all of this wasgoing on, the drummer in Shaw’s band, theexcellent Cliff Leeman, encountered a majorproblem. (He later explained this problem as beingthe world’s worst case of the piles.) His afflictiongot so bad that he simply could not sit on hisdrummer’s stool without agonizing pain.

Being a helpful person, Georgie Auld thenapproached Shaw, and suggested that Buddy Rich,the drummer in the Berigan band, might be a goodfit for the drummer’s role in the Shaw band. Shawwas not too receptive, because Buddy was loud, wasassertive (some would say cocky), and he couldn’tread drum music. As Shaw became increasinglyconcerned with the non-progress he was having infinding a drummer, he finally told Auld to ask Richto come by the Blue Room and sit in for a set.Rich’s effect on the Shaw band was immediate andelectric. Yes, he was loud; yes, he was aggressive.But he also propelled the Shaw band with acontrolled exuberance that they had neverexperienced before. Shaw agreed to hire Rich assoon as he (Rich) could complete his two-weeknotice with Berigan. Shaw often stated that whenhe discussed with Rich the problem of him notbeing able to read drum music when they firstmet,Rich told him that he couldn’t, and didn’t needto. He said he needed only to listen to the bandplay its current repertoire once or twice, and he’dthen know what to play. This is exactly what he did,and there was never any problem with him notknowing what to play with the Shaw band.

Many years later, Artie Shaw reflected on theimpact Georgie Auld and Buddy Rich had on his

band: “I hired Georgie Auld and Buddy Rich atabout the same time. They were totally opposite towhat the band was. They came in and did theirthing…and that added a spice to the whole band.They changed the band overnight, not that theyknew it.”

In November of 1939, Artie Shaw was leading thetop swing band in the country. He was also havinga slow, steady meltdown. For myriad reasons,Shaw felt besieged. He repeatedly threatened toleave his band, despite his enormous popular andmusical success with it. Most of his sidemenshrugged all of this off, and continued to make finemusic with Artie. Then, suddenly, it happened: inmid-November, Shaw left his band in the middle ofa highly successful, high-profile engagement at theCafe’ Rouge of Hotel Pennsylvania in Manhattan.Shaw’s drummer, Buddy Rich, had been under asiege of his own in the fall of 1939. Tommy Dorsey,and his personal manager Bobby Burns, werebesieging Rich with phone calls and telegramsimploring him to join Tommy’s band. After Shawdeparted, Rich was flown to Chicago at Dorsey’sexpense. There the TD band was in the middle of along engagement at the Palmer House. Tommyrolled out the red carpet for Rich, ensconcing himin a suite and paying all of his expenses. Richdeigned to listen to the TD band for one evening.After one set, he pronounced the band “square,”and returned to Manhattan.

Dorsey being Dorsey told Burns, “now we’ve gothim!” Burns, perplexed, asked Tommy what hemeant: Rich had returned to New York withoutjoining the TD band. “I’ll talk with him tomorrowon the phone, and he’ll be my drummer, you’ll see.”The next day Tommy did call Rich on the phone.He told him he would redesign his band, and buildit around Buddy’s drumming. Now, Rich wasbecoming interested. “I’ll have Sy Oliver createterrific showcases for your drumming!” Tommypromised. Rich being Rich then said: “How muchbread are we talking about Tommy?” After briefnegotiations, a generous salary was agreed upon.Dorsey immediately had his attorney in New Yorkpersonally deliver a contract for Rich to sign atBuddy’s parents’ home in Brooklyn (Buddy at age22 was still living with them). Buddy signed, and anew chapter in swing history began.

As 1939 wound down and 1940 began, the idealisticpicture Dorsey had painted for Rich slowly began tofill in. Tommy began gradually reshaping hisband’s musical identity along more swing/jazzoriented lines. Rich always had a couple of featuresin each show. More jazz was being featured. Richwas content. Then Tommy Dorsey hired FrankSinatra in January of 1940. TD knew immediatelythat he would have to balance his band’s jazz andswing presentations with dreamy ballads sung bySinatra. Audiences were demanding it. (Tommywas one of the first to notice Sinatra’s inexplicablepower over the young women in his audience.)Sinatra’s gains were Rich’s losses. Buddy boiled.Still, TD did continue to present Rich’s drummingto a far greater degree than any other bandleaderever had featured a drummer. One of the firstshowcases for Rich’s drumming that Tommy had SyOliver create was “Quiet Please.”

To close the circle on the Buddy Rich – TommyDorsey story, there was a TV special on which Richappeared in early 1987, which included him playingsome selections that he played in his days as TD’sstar drummer, including “Hawaiian War Chant.”The band he appeared with was the Tommy Dorseyband directed by Buddy Morrow. The trumpetsoloist was Daryl “Flea” Campbell, who like Richand Morrow, had been a member of Tommy’s swingera band. Rich at age 69 was still playingbrilliantly. What no one knew then was that withina short time, a life-threatening brain tumor wouldbe discovered, Rich would undergo complicatedsurgery, and sadly would perish shortly thereafteron April 2, 1987.
