Busted 78s fRom HeLL: Red Ingle - It Ain't Never Hurt Me None So Far (circa 1946)

A previous post shared some novelty 78s that Red Ingle had recorded in the 1930's as vocalist with the Ted Weems Orchestra, prior to his stint from 1943 - 1946 with Spike Jones as one of his 'City Slickers'.

Featured in this post is one recorded almost immediately following his departure from the Spike Jones band, but just prior to the formation of his own group and the beginning of his stellar string of records made for the Capitol label from 1947 into the early fifties.

Recorded in Hollywood during this interim, his one session with
Dick Peterson and The Vocal Yokels yielded this Ingle original. ➤

- sigh - Funny little story about the B-side...

The demise of this particular disc is one that illustrates what I love and respect about old 78 rpm records, and likewise what I love about working with software like ProTools and SoundSoap.

Getting set to record the A-side, I heard a loud and persistent surface popping as I was setting levels.

'Rats, maybe it's got a little crack in it', I thought. 'Better take a look...'

↖ As I picked the disc up from the turntable, a big triangular chunk fell right out of it. Eeek!!

78s are a marvel, and (in my opinion) they retain more of the special magic and wonder of the *concepts* of sound recording than any medium that's followed.

Yes, they can be brittle as hell, and can carry lots of surface noise, but I'm continually amazed by the fact
(in my experience) that they so rarely skip.

- - And unlike most recording mediums, you can put them back together and they'll still play. Sometimes.

I was very pleased with the performance of the A-side of this old and broken record.

I had to put a small piece of tape on the B-side to hold the broken chunk in place, because otherwise centrifugal force was sending it careening off the turntable.

I placed the disc back on the platter, gave it a good wet clean with my old discwasher brush to sort of 'lube up' the grooves, started recording, set down the needle, and - - bless its fragile shellac heart - - the record played straight through, persistent pop and all.

A little ProTools TLC turned the most jagged ridges and chasms in the first half of the soundfile back into some shallower waves, a run through SoundSoap softened some of the surface noise without sterilizing it, and voilà - -

- - for all practical purposes, the very last play this decidedly goofy old record will receive was the one that captured a reasonable facsimile of it for some folks to enjoy beyond its lifespan.
Mission accomplished.

It would have been nice if I'd been able to get the B-side ('I Tipped My Hat And Slowly Rode Away') to cooperate as well, but no such luck.
Oh well, I'm satisfied. I wound up with a tale to tell, and anyway, the A-side was better...

78s fRom HeLL: Raymond Scott and his Orchestra on MGM in 1947 & 1948

Bandleader, composer and inventor Raymond Scott had risen to prominence and acclaim by the late 1930's, and remained busy for decades.

Following World War II he left radio and toured the US with a new line-up in his orchestra.

In the course of just the next few years he would compose scores for films and Broadway shows, establish Manhattan Research, his electronics corporation, and patent a couple of 'electro-mechanical music inventions'.

By 1947, when the first of these 78s was released, Scott had a new nationally broadcast radio show, and had embarked on another tour with yet another new orchestra line-up.

This MGM recording of 'Huckleberry Duck' was a new version of one he'd done with his
'New Orchestra' on Columbia back in 1940.
The melody was among the Scott repertoire that had been adapted for inclusion in various Warner Bros. cartoons.

1948 and '49 would find Scott composing more scores and inventing more 'gadgets', including his first electronic music synthesizer.
He also established his own label,
Master Records, and formed his 3rd incarnation of the Raymond Scott Quintette.

By the end of '49, he became the bandleader on CBS' 'Your Hit Parade' program, a position which would soon take him from radio to television heading into the 1950's.

78s fRom HeLL: Ruth Wallis (1920 - 2007)

Renowned cabaret singer Ruth Wallis passed away a few weeks back, on December 22nd, 2007, at age 87.

During the 1940's, '50's and '60's she was known for her risqué novelty songs and 'party' records.

As with so many other things in our jaded modern world, her music is awfully tame by today's standards - - even charmingly quaint, perhaps - - like about a half-step beyond Benny Hill, okay?

She caused a stir in her day, however.
The double entendres peppered throughout her songs were considered shocking to many, if not just plain lewd.

It was likely the fact that her records couldn't be played on most radio stations that eventually led her to found her own record label.

78s fRom HeLL: Renato Carosone - The Little Alarm Clock / My Luciana (circa 1956)

Singer / Pianist / Bandleader Renato Carosone (1920 - 2001) remains much beloved in Italy, but it appears that his name hasn't been heard very often here in the US since the 1950's.

- From his entry at allmusic.Com:

"Renato Carosone is regarded as the father of Neapolitan singing, bringing elements of jazz and swing into traditional, Italian songbook.

"Carosene was born on January 3, 1920, and started his singing career at the age of 17 after studying piano at a conservatory.

"He was best known for his 1956 hit about postwar Italy, 'Tu Vo' Fa l'Americano', which translates to 'You Want to Play the American'.

"Other hit songs of Carosone's include 'Maruzzella' and 'O Sarracino'. Though he revolutionized the genre in his home country, he also internationalized Italian song."


This VERY worn 78 was released in the US. I'm assuming it was a US-market follow-up to his song 'Torero', which had charted well in the States in '58.

(ADDENDUM, 12/26/07: Turns out I'm mistaken. This was issued in '56, before 'Torero'. See comments)

Apologies for the terribly rough sound quality on the first side of this disc...

...though I think it carries a certain authentic charm as a testament to how well-loved it was by a previous owner.

Especially as the B-side is delightfully clean by comparison...

78s fRom HeLL: Cousin Herb Henson - I've Never Heard (1954)

Other than the recording of 'Y'All Come' that would become his theme song, the handful of records recorded by
Cousin Herb Henson were mostly amiable country-western novelty tunes.
This goofy pair I've posted here are no exception.

Henson's more memorable achievements in the world of country music were as host of a TV show that did much to foster the growth of the artists responsible for the distinctive 'Bakersfield Sound' in the 1950's and '60's.

Cousin Herb Henson had been a radio DJ and sometime country music performer in Bakersfield, California since the latter-half of the 1940's when he was offered his own local TV show in 1953.

'The Cousin Herb Henson Trading Post TV Show' ran on weekday afternoons.
It showcased Bakersfield area musicians as well as a wide variety of guest stars, and the broadcast signal was strong enough to reach much of the Central Valley, Fresno, and out to the coast.

Cousin Herb hosted the show for ten years, up until his untimely death in 1963, at the age of 38.

78s fRom HeLL: Two by Raymond Scott and his New Orchestra (1939 - 1940)

By the late 1930's Raymond Scott's renowned 6-piece 'Quintette' had received much acclaim and were kept busy.

But times were changing, and brilliant innovator Raymond Scott was restless.

According to Scott biographer Irwin Chusid, Scott "...expanded the Quintet into a big band for several reasons: large dance bands were in vogue; a larger ensemble presented a challenge to this restless musical nomad; and Scott probably wanted to follow the example of one of his idols, Glenn Miller."

Here are a couple of 'New Orchestra' studio tracks that (to my knowledge) are currently out-of-print. Enjoy!

78s fRom HeLL: Don Brassfield and His Swing Sextette - 'Body By Fisher' b/w 'Surprise Special' (195?)

I can't find any handy discographical info about this record, but my gut says late 1940's - early 1950's.

(Can you help me narrow it down?)

By the fifties the Fisher Body company had stepped up their
'Body by Fisher' print ad campaigns, stressing the ' - - do they mean the car body or the girl in the picture?' angle of their selling strategy even more than they had in previous decades.

Almost to a man, Don Brassfield and the rest of his Sextette had played with some of the major American Big Bands during the 1940's, and would be much in demand as session men in the fifties and sixties.

Session personnel:
Tommy Pederson, trombone
Gus Bivona, clarinet
Tommy Todd, piano
Bob Bain, guitar
Ralph Collier, drums
Artie Shapiro, bass
Don Brassfield, tenor sax

78s fRom HeLL: Bud Freeman and Ray McKinley - The Atomic Era (1945)

A couple of cool instrumental sides from some cool players.

Tenor sax player Bud Freeman began his professional career in Chicago in the 1920's.
By the time this recording was made, he'd had stints with bands led by Eddie Condon, Red Nichols,
Ray Noble, and Tommy Dorsey.

Meanwhile, swing drummer Ray McKinley was a featured player in Glenn Miller's Orchestra, after a very fruitful period acting as co-leader of Will Bradley's band that included his hit recording of 'Beat Me Daddy, Eight to the Bar'.

The pair are joined by some other great veteran jazzmen on the B-side of the disc...

78s fRom HeLL: Al 'Jazzbo' Collins' Grimm Fairy Tales For Hip Kids - Little Red Riding Hood & Three Little Pigs (1953)

Over the course of more than fifty-or-so odd years,
Al "Jazzbo" Collins (1919 - 1997) was by definition one of the coolest voices in radio.
A professional hipster.

This platter was the first of his hip fairy tale recordings, reciting adaptations that Steve Allen had been presenting in the pages of Downbeat magazine.

The two would collaborate and revisit the concept many times over the course of many years. (With and without pianist Lou Stein.)

78s fRom HeLL: Garry Moore - Culture Corner (1946) (Expanded re-post)

(Almost seven months ago, I posted 'Ode To A Cow' from this album as one of my very first entries while I was setting up this blog. I've had a few requests since then to post more cuts from it. Here's the whole shebang, often with an excess of surface noise intact. Enjoy!)

Prior to many years as a genial host of game shows, talk shows, and variety shows on TV, Garry Moore was announcer, sidekick, and straightman to Jimmy Durante on his radio show.

One of his featured bits as 'Durante's Boy' was
'Culture Corner'. This album collects some of those 'original monologues with music'.
(Please try to disregard what looks suspiciously like old bloodstains on the weathered album cover.)

78s fRom HeLL: The Alec Wilder Octet (circa 1940)

American composer Alec Wilder (1907 - 1980) wore many hats during his career.

If you'll allow the metaphor to be awkwardly strained, it seems that all those 'hats' which Wilder wore were a bit outlandishly fashioned, and not one of them fit him quite correctly.

In the liner notes to this album set (click link to view) he is correctly pegged as a 'musician's musician'...

In addition to 'chamber jazz' pieces like those featured here, he composed pop songs for many well-known artists, classical pieces for small ensembles and large orchestras, 'art songs' for operatic vocalists, a prodigious amount of music for children, including 'A Child's Introduction to the Orchestra' - - and the list goes on.

Frank Sinatra was among those championing his music early on; In 1945, Sinatra would conduct a recording of his instrumental compositions for woodwind and string orchestra.

But Wilder's music was eccentric (as was Wilder), and though many people in musical circles 'got' him, widespread commercial success eluded him.

A 'musician's musician' held in high regard, but for the general public it seemed he was too lowbrow for the highbrows, and too highbrow for the lowbrows.

Beauty! Art! Wit!
Wonderment! Humility!
Arrogance! Style!
Virtue! Decency!
Patience!
And all the others,
Gone, trampled by the
Newly-polished jack boots
Of the clog-suited society.

I am a stranger here, from
Another planet;
Not spotted yet, but
Getting peculiar stares.
Forbidden entrance to
All the places where
Air remains,
Where green is true
And water unmolested.

In any other time,
(Excepting Atilla's)
I'd be a hero
Why, they'd even name
An alley after me
And put a blotting-paper
Plaque on all my doors
Not because I was great
But because I insisted on
All the words and was rejected by
Those who wait ferally
In the ancient trees.

78s fRom HeLL: Willard Cele - Penny Whistle Blues (circa 1951)

Willard Cele was a pioneer of South African Kwela music, and is often credited as having been the first to bring the inherently upbeat sound of the Pennywhistle to the medium.

(On the record label he's credited as playing the Flageolet, which is sort of the refined older cousin to the Tin Whistle or Pennywhistle. I'll guess the credit was wishful thinking on the part of London records.)

In 1951 Cele and his tin flute appeared in the landmark South African film, 'The Magic Garden' (a.k.a. 'The Pennywhistle Blues').

It greatly helped to popularize the instrument and inspired many to play, including
Spokes Mashiyane, who would become a superstar of Kwela in the mid-1950's and into the sixties.

78s fRom HeLL: Ted Heath and his Music - Stomp And Whistle b/w Bernie's Tune (1954)

Ted Heath (1900 - 1969) was a British dance band leader who was hugely popular there throughout the 1950's.

He'd performed with other bands going back to the 1920's, and formed his own in 1944.

Listening to his music from this period with American ears, I'm always struck by his approach to swing and jazz - -

A combination of innovative and playful licks, combined with that British dance band sense of... what is it? Reserve? Decorum?
No, that's not fair or exactly accurate...

... I guess I'll just have to call it a 'Trans-Atlantic Otherness' for now and leave it at that.

- - But that sound works well for me, make no mistake.

Both of these sides were recorded in London on
November 29, 1954.

78s fRom HeLL: Three by Red Ingle, as featured vocalist with the Ted Weems Orchestra, 1936 - 1939

Versatile musician, singer, writer, arranger, cartoonist and humorist Red Ingle performed with
Ted Weems' orchestra from 1931 until the band went on 'hiatus' after the outbreak of WWII.

Born in Toledo, Ohio,
Ingle (1906 - 1965) had begun performing professionally by age 15. By his late teens he was playing saxophone with the
Jean Goldkette Orchestra, in the band along with Bix Beiderbecke and Frankie Trumbauer.

During his stint with Ted Weems, in addition to his instrumental duties he was the band's comedian, featured in many of their 'novelty' numbers.

A young Perry Como joined the Weems band as a boy vocalist in 1936.
He later would recall Red Ingle as one of the most talented men he'd ever met.

After the Weems orchestra disbanded, Ingle sought war work, but was eventually discharged from military service after failing an
Air Force eye exam.

In 1943 he joined Spike Jones and his City Slickers, which is perhaps the career credit for which Ingle is best remembered. His musical versatility, comic timing and creative spark served him well there, along with his aptitude for funny voices and sound effects.

Red Ingle left Spike's employ in November of 1946, following a salary dispute.
(Not an uncommon departure for various City Slickers).
By the Spring of 1947 Ingle had formed his new band, soon to be performing as 'The Natural Seven' and recording almost exclusively for then-fledgling record label Capitol Records.

Those Capitol recordings from '47 - '51 are brilliant.
Stunning musicianship paired with wry cornball humor.
You can find them all on a perfect and HIGHLY recommended Red Ingle CD released on the Bear Family label.

Ingle's performances here on these few earlier, well-loved old Ted Weems 78s don't match the manic inventiveness on display during his solo years or his recordings with Spike Jones - - or at least the intensity is only turned up to about a '6', instead of the amped-out '11' he'd reach in later years.

Having fallen in love with the man's skills from his heyday, I can't fault him for those years he was still figuratively 'on the leash'.
