A paragon of modern jazz piano, Bud Powells playing was also deeply rooted in
the traditional style. During Buds stay in Paris, Kurt Mohr questioned him about
the first tunes he learned to play. Without hesitating Bud mentioned Carolina
Shout but he wouldnt elaborate. A couple of hours later, at the Blue Note Club,
without a word of warning and to everybodys surprise, Bud opened up which a
brilliant note-for-note rendition of the |ames P. |ohnson classic, but cut short
after a chorus or two. Bud apparently felt embarrassed at having shown his
familiarity with the older style
Earl Rudolph Bud Powell was born in New York City on September 27 1924. His
father, William Powell, who, according to Bud, led the pit band at the Alhambra
Theater, taught him the first elements of piano. Buds younger brother, Richie,
also became a well-known pianist. By 1943 Earl Powell (as he was then known), in
full mastery of his instrument, had become the regular pianist in Cootie
Williams Orchestra (CD 827). While touring he was involved in a traumatic
beat-up from which he never fully recovered. He developed a shut-in and
occasionally violent personality, his mind getting totally involved in music,
creating unheard-of phrasing and approach. As his fame spread he was soon in big
demand, leading his own small groups featuring the top musicians of the day. His
unpredictable character sometimes necessitated his confinement in a mental
hospital. Buttercup, a long time friend (and later wife), a trained nurse,
signed for his release and took care of his booking. After several concert
tours, the Powells settled in Paris where Bud was kept under strict medication,
all the while playing regular engagements. His friend Francis Paudras then
offered him to stay at his appartment where he had a piano at his disposal,
cutting down on his pills and achieving a significant improval to his health.
Yet in 1964 Bud begged to return to New York, where he soon fell victim to dope
and alcohol. He was picked up dead on August 1, 1966.
Many sessions with Bud Powell are also available on this label, including his
only studio date with Charlie Parker. Volume I of the recordings of Bud Powell
presented in chronological order opens with an unduly neglected but oustanding
session by tenorist Frankie Socolow. His quintet turned in three tremendous
tracks, unfortunately marred by rather poor sound conditions. Socolow admired
Freddie Webster, who gets to play some of his finest solos on these tracks,
Reverse The Charges in particular, showing the quality of this fine artist. On
Websters recommendation, Socolow used Bud Powell on this session, the latter
treating us to an expressive solo on September In The Rain. An allegedly
existing fourth track from this fascinating date could not be traced. The
session with the Be Bop Boys is better known : the charts by Gil Fuller leave
ample solo space to the musicians. Both Navarro and Powell are at their best on
Webb City, based on the changes of I Got Rhythm. This CD ends with Buds first
recordings under his own name. These brilliant trio-performances allow a
profound study of Buds unforgettable playing, mostly in medium or ballad tempo.
The closing Everything Happens To Me is possibly the highlight of this important
CD.
