Description
Episode Description
Jimmy Rushing, famous as Count Basie?s vocalist, is most frequently identified with the shouting blues. Accompanying himself on the piano, he opens the episode with ?Goin to Chicago.? Next he sings one of his best known blues numbers, ?Am I to Blame?? Then he goes on to tell about his uncle, Wesley Manning, who taught him piano and who would bring home a hatful of money on Saturday nights and wake up young Jimmy, inviting him to stick his hand in and take some. Rushing also tells about young Jimmy, inviting him to stick his hand in and take some. Rushing also tells about the Kansas City ?red light district,? forbidden territory that fascinated him not only because of the stories he heard but also because of the blues that echoed throughout the district. He then sings ?Baby Don?t You Tell On Me,? a song with an extensive piano break, Jimmy Rushing is chiefly known as a blues singer and his abilities as a pianist are forgotten by most; yet he was an intermission pianist for Jelly Roll Morton in California as long ago as 1924. But Rushing point out, ?I could only play in three keys, and everything ended up sounding the same to me.? And so he decided to concentrate on his singing. Rushing speaks of the differences between New Orleans and Kansas City blues, and then plays ?Hurry Down, Sunshine, See What Tomorrow Brings.? He also gives a rendition of ?Trix Ain?t Walkin?,?talks some more about Count Basie in Kansas City when the latter was an actor ?bally-hooing? the show on the street outside, sings ?How Long, How Long Blues,? and ?Good Morning Blues,? and ends the program with a reprise of ?Goin? to Chicago.?

Series Description
Jazz, an exciting and very personal American art form, is discussed, dissected, and played during Jazz Casual. Jazz began to be created in New Orleans during and after the Civil War. The simple melodies created then can still be heard in both jazz and popular music. From Turk Murphy who is devoted to the preservation of rare old jazz tunes to Dave Brubeck and his avant garde work with rhythm, Jazz Casual presents a panorama of jazz as it exists today and existed yesterday. Throughout the series, outstanding musicians in the field of jazz play and interpret the music they improvise. Although classical music through the early nineteenth century used improvisation, jazz is the only musical form since to use this unique form of composition. Because jazz is not written, it has many variations and shadings depending upon the temperament of the performer. Therefore, each group included in this series represents a different attitude toward the requirements of jazz style. (Style is basically that quality which gives distinctive character to a particular performers work or to a particular kind of music.) Each episode is devoted to a well known jazz performer or group and includes an actual jazz session as well as a brief, informal interview with the featured personality. Guest performers include Sonny Rollins and Company, Turk Murphys San Francisco Jazz Band, Jimmy Witherspoon, Ben Webster, The Modern Jazz Quartet, the Dizzy Gillespie Quintet, the Julian Cannonball Adderly Quartet, Carmen McRae and the Dave Brubeck Quartet. Host and producer for this series is Ralph J. Gleason, whose syndicated column on jazz appears in such papers as the San Francisco Chronicle, Boston Globe, Milwaukee Journal, New York Journal American, Cleveland Press, Des Moines Register, and Salt Lake City Desert News. Of the series Gleason says, The aim of the program is to present jazz in as natural a way as possible. To this end, the selection of the music and its programming has been left entirely in the hands of the musicians themselves. In other words, on JAZZ CASUAL, the music director each week is the leader of the group. The musicians are encouraged to set and arrange themselves informally in a manner most natural to them and every attempt is made to make them feel thoroughly at home. The program is only as good as the music. Jazz Casual is produced by KQED, San Francisco. This series of 24 half-hour episodes was originally recorded on videotape.
