The amount of records that have come out of the woodwork in the past three or four years has been phenomenal, says Shirley. Because, although a lot of records arent rare, when people do put Holy Grail items up for sale, collectors go absolutely mad for them. Because these records just dont turn up.

New Orleans, Louisiana, was one of the great jazz pioneers. Throughout his life he gave unstinting praise to some of the jazzmen who preceded, and inspired him, among them Buddy Bolden, first king of jazz cornet Porter King, leading pianist of the Gulf Coast and inspiration for King Porter Stomp Louis Chauvin, king of the St. Louis ragtime pianists and, above all, Tony Jackson, pianistic master of everything from Opera to the blues whom Jelly aptly described as the worlds greatest single handed entertainer. Jellys world was the world of honky tonk and sporting house. A great composer, he derived little profit from his numerous compositions a fate that he shared with most Negro composers from Scott Joplin on. A man of great personal charm and dignity, Jelly made friends slowly but once a friendship was established it had depth and permanence. When Jelly died in 1. None of his friends thought these worth replying to for Jellys life, like his music, speaks for itself. Here is a small fragment of that life. Ive been working on some plans. I wish youd come in with me on this. I got an idea its big, very big. The curtains on the U Street windows stirred gently and the warm, damp air of the Washington summer billowed in upon us, hanging like a vapor over the bare tabletops in the too brightly lit room. Jelly smiled tentatively, as though not quite sure one would fall in with his plans. I considered this proposition a long time, he added. The smile was characteristic of Jelly. Maybe not the Mr. Jelly Lord of the 1. Cadillac and a diamond filled tooth were understatement, but still Mr. Jelly Lord, even though only a small handful of the jazz world knew, or cared, that he was alive. It was that smile and not the big talk that was Jelly. Ten years before he had been on top. A long decade Poverty, illness and at times a pessimism that amounted to premonition. He had known poverty before, in the hard and hopeless environment of the Gulf Coast. But something held him up in those days, no matter how hard the luck came. He was young and the world was still his jug. He could play pool on the side whether well, or badly didnt matter and he could make his way from honky tonk to honky tonk, confident that when be reached St. Louis he could take everyone but Tony Jackson. Jelly helped to build a world, only to find, in his last years, that there seemed to be no place for him in it. That was how it was when he came to that upstairs cabaret on U Street, where most of his own customers didnt know who he was. His own tunes had been pirated, or were used without benefit to him for at that time he was still fighting for his ASCAP button. He had no band and no offers for solo work. So he mixed malicious drinks in the back room for generally lethargic clientele. The sell out guys jazz, meanwhile, were getting ahead. Jelly tried to convince himself that commercialism in music and music making was artistic he quoted, almost verbatim, the nation of some music magazines that, ironically have fought and still fight all that Jelly stands for in jazz. Because no one with Jellys sincerity and background could actually go commercial. The conviction wasnt real but there were times when he tried to make it stick. Cara Update Patch Fm 2008. In such moods born of his failure in worldly terms, he would come up with pseudo pop songs and grandiose ideas, such as the one, he proposed to me that hot July night. We would, he explained, plan a series of Juke Box recordings. That was where the money was. Fifty thousand Juke Boxes couldnt be wrongI thought of the Juke Box there on U Street and what had happened to it during the course of my Washington sojourn. At first there were few records of any merit in it. Then the influence of small circle of Washington jazz fans began to tell and the neighborhood kids didnt know what to make of it they complained about the corny old tunes on the Juke Box Wolverine Blues, Beale Street Blues, Honky Tonk Train, The Pearls. And Jelly was torn again. What the kids wanted was not jazz. They dont know nothing about jazz, Jelly would say emphatically. But they represented public. Ten, minutes later Jelly would play one of his new pop songs, watching one for its effect. Aint it a kind of pretty thing and you could see Jelly clutching for straws so that it was hard to say, what one had to say, Jelly, I like the old tunes best. You know that. And you could do more like them. Once in a while, if he felt especially bad, he would mutter, No one wants that stuff any more. But his hands would be on the keyboard, feeling for the past. And in those moments he forgot the little compensations with which hed tried to push aside the big frustrations. Apologetically, he would loosen the patterned tie on the starched striped shirt. Man, I believe its warm tonight, and Mr. Jelly Lord smiled, with that world again in a jug and the stopper in his hand. That was generally time for a drink for his friends and a sip of sherry for himself. I cant drink, you know. Then Whats that, one of the old onesWell, this is no doubt one of the oldest, this one has whiskers. That way the evening got ripe and the unknowing customers, if any were present, looked on, cynically ignorant but aware that Mr. Jelly Lord was not to be tampered with. Without always being conscious of it, that small group of Washington jazz fans who encouraged Jelly, helped him immeasurably to resume his title and place in jazz. I dont know what Id do if a few friends didnt drop in. People dont know the old jazz any more. So it was good to talk old time and say flatteringly Your friend really knows. Say, listen to him talk about Buddy Bolden. Then Jelly would go back to the piano again. I recall evenings with mixed groups that were permissible in so few places in Washington, a bunch of us gathered about the spinet piano, Jelly tossing off blues verses and goading Sterling Brown of Howard University into singing a few. I can remember Jelly telling a crowded, fidgety Union benefit audience, most of whom wanted to dance, that he would enlighten them with a resume of jazz history, beginning with Buddy Bolden. Many members of the exclusive Jelly Roll Club, such as Nesuhi Ertegun, I knew of then only by hearsay. Jelly was increasingly proud of his fans. One day at the Howard Theater I corralled Sidney Bechet and we went up the creaking stairs. Jellys wife happened to be in the place and the effusive greetings in Creole put New Orleans on the map all over again. There was a lot more of that, all helping Jelly to realize once more his place in jazz and helping to undo some of the damage to his ego. And for those people Jellys wistful and wishful build up Inventor of Jazz, Stomps and Swing fell away he was able to think of himself, as they thought of him, a great jazz pianist and composer, a great jazz pioneer. Thats the way it was when Jelly recorded his amazing documentary series for the Library of Congress. If it irks connoisseurs that these records are not yet available to the public, it might be some consolation to consider that without them Jelly would not have been prepared to do his own best memorial, the General album. His fingers were often stiff and his heart wasnt pumping the way it should, yet many times during that period Jelly remarked how good it felt to play that way.
