Albert J. "Budd" Johnson III (December 14, 1910 – October 20, 1984)[1] was an American jazz saxophonist and clarinetist who worked extensively with, among others, Ben Webster, Benny Goodman, Big Joe Turner, Coleman Hawkins, Dizzy Gillespie, Duke Ellington, Quincy Jones, Count Basie, Billie Holiday and, especially, Earl Hines.[2][3] Contents 1 Life and career 2 Discography 2.1 As leader/coleader 2.2 As sideman 2.3 As arranger 3 References 4 External links Life and career Johnson initially played drums and piano before switching to tenor saxophone. In the 1920s he performed in Texas and parts of the Midwest, working with Jesse Stone among others. Johnson had his recording debut while working with Louis Armstrong's band in 1932-33 but he is more known for his work, over many years, with Earl Hines. It is contended that he and Billy Eckstine, Hines' long-term collaborator, led Hines to hire "modernists" in the birth of bebop, which came largely out of the Hines band. Johnson was also an early figure in the bebop era, doing sessions with Coleman Hawkins in 1944. In the 1950s he led his own group and did session work for Atlantic Records - he is the featured tenor saxophone soloist on Ruth Brown's hit "Teardrops from My Eyes". In the mid-1960s he began working and recording again with Hines. His association with Hines is his longest lasting and most significant. In 1975 he began working with the New York Jazz Repertory Orchestra. He was inducted into the Big Band and Jazz Hall of Fame in 1993. His grandson, Albert Johnson (aka Prodigy), was a member of the hip-hop duo Mobb Deep.[4] Discography As leader/coleader 1958: Blues a la Mode (Felsted) 1960: Budd Johnson and the Four Brass Giants (Riverside) with Ray Nance, Clark Terry, Nat Adderley and Harry Edison 1960: Let's Swing!

He was 73 years old. Mr. Johnson, who lived in Hempstead, L.I., was in Kansas City for a performance. The career of Mr. Johnson, who was born Albert Johnson in Dallas on Dec. 14, 1910, spanned 60 years, starting in 1924 when he was the drummer in a teen-age band. He soon switched to saxophone and in 1933 was leading a group jointly with the pianist Teddy Wilson when they both joined Louis Armstrong's Orchestra. The following year he joined the Earl Hines Orchestra and for the next eight years he was Mr. Hines musical director. He brought the then little-known be-bop musicians Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker into the Hines band in 1942. Arranger for Big Bands He wrote arrangements for the early bop-oriented big bands led by Billy Eckstine, Boyd Raeburn, Woody Herman and Mr. Gillespie and in 1944 was a member with Mr. Gillespie of the first be-bop group to play on 52d Street in New York. Shortly later he organized the first be-bop recording date, released under Coleman Hawkins' name on the Apollo label. In the 1950's and 60's, Mr. Johnson played with the orchestras of Count Basie, Quincy Jones and Benny Goodman and toured the Soviet Union with Mr. Hines. For several years he was co-leader with Oliver Jackson and Bill Pemberton of the JPJ Quartet and was active as a lecturer and conductor of music clinics at colleges. Mr. Johnson is survived by his wife, Bernice; a son, Albert Jr., of Hempstead; a sister, Ruth Hickman of Dallas, and a grandson. A funeral service will be held on Thursday at 7:30 P.M. at St. Peter's Church, Lexington Avenue at 54th Street. Clark Virgil Terry Jr.[1] (December 14, 1920 – February 21, 2015) was an American swing and bebop trumpeter, a pioneer of the flugelhorn in jazz, and a composer and educator. He played with Charlie Barnet (1947), Count Basie (1948–51),[2] Duke Ellington (1951–59),[2] Quincy Jones (1960), and Oscar Peterson (1964-96). He was with The Tonight Show Band from 1962 to 1972. His career in jazz spanned more than 70 years, during which he became one of the most recorded jazz musicians, appearing on over 900 recordings. Terry also mentored Quincy Jones, Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Wynton Marsalis, Pat Metheny, Dianne Reeves, and Terri Lyne Carrington.[3] Contents 1 Early life 2 Big band era 3 Later career 4 Death and tributes 5 Awards and honors 6 Discography 6.1 As leader 6.2 As sideman 7 See also 8 Bibliography 9 References 10 External links Early life Terry was born to Clark Virgil Terry Sr. and Mary Terry in St. Louis, Missouri, on December 14, 1920.[1][2] He attended Vashon High School and began his professional career in the early 1940s, playing in local clubs. He served as a bandsman in the United States Navy during World War II. His first instrument was valve trombone.[4] Terry at the 1981 Monterey Jazz Festival Big band era Blending the St. Louis tone with contemporary styles, Terry's years with Basie and Ellington (who secretly recruited Terry away from Basie)[5] in the late 1940s and 1950s established his prominence. During his period with Ellington, he took part in many of the composer's suites and acquired a reputation for his wide range of styles (from swing to hard bop), technical proficiency, and good humor. Terry influenced musicians including Miles Davis and Quincy Jones, both of whom acknowledged Terry's influence during the early stages of their careers. Terry had informally taught Davis while they were still in St Louis,[6] and Jones during Terry's frequent visits to Seattle with the Count Basie Sextet.[7] After leaving Ellington in 1959, Clark's international recognition soared when he accepted an offer from the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) to become a staff musician. He appeared for ten years on The Tonight Show as a member of the Tonight Show Band until 1972, first led by Skitch Henderson and later by Doc Severinsen, where his unique "mumbling" scat singing led to a hit with "Mumbles".[8] Terry was the first African American to become a regular in a band on a major US television network. He said later: "We had to be models, because I knew we were in a test.... We couldn't have a speck on our trousers. We couldn't have a wrinkle in the clothes. We couldn't have a dirty shirt."[9] Terry continued to play with musicians such as trombonist J. J. Johnson and pianist Oscar Peterson,[10] and led a group with valve-trombonist Bob Brookmeyer that achieved some success in the early 1960s. In February 1965, Brookmeyer and Terry appeared on BBC2's Jazz 625.[11] and in 1967, presented by Norman Granz, he was recorded at Poplar Town Hall, in the BBC series Jazz at the Philharmonic, alongside James Moody, Dizzy Gillespie, Coleman Hawkins, Benny Carter, Teddy Wilson, Bob Cranshaw, Louie Bellson and T-Bone Walker.[12] In the 1970s, Terry concentrated increasingly on the flugelhorn, which he played with a full, ringing tone. In addition to his studio work and teaching at jazz workshops, Terry toured regularly in the 1980s with small groups (including Peterson's) and performed as the leader of his Big B-A-D Band (formed about 1970). After financial difficulties forced him to break up the Big B-A-D Band, he performed with bands such as the Unifour Jazz Ensemble. His humor and command of jazz trumpet styles are apparent in his "dialogues" with himself, on different instruments or on the same instrument, muted and unmuted. Later career Terry in New York City, 1976 From the 1970s through the 1990s, Terry performed at Carnegie Hall, Town Hall, and Lincoln Center, toured with the Newport Jazz All Stars and Jazz at the Philharmonic, and was featured with Skitch Henderson's New York Pops Orchestra. In 1998, Terry recorded George Gershwin's "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off" for the Red Hot Organization's compilation album Red Hot + Rhapsody, a tribute to George Gershwin, which raised money for various charities devoted to increasing AIDS awareness and fighting the disease. In November 1980, he was a headliner along with Anita O'Day, Lionel Hampton and Ramsey Lewis during the opening two-week ceremony performances celebrating the short-lived resurgence of the Blue Note Lounge at the Marriott O'Hare Hotel near Chicago. Prompted early in his career by Billy Taylor, Clark and Milt Hinton bought instruments for and gave instruction to young hopefuls, which planted the seed that became Jazz Mobile in Harlem. This venture tugged at Terry's greatest love: involving youth in the perpetuation of jazz. From 2000 onwards, he hosted Clark Terry Jazz Festivals on land and sea, held his own jazz camps, and appeared in more than fifty jazz festivals on six continents. Terry composed more than two hundred jazz songs and performed for eight U.S. Presidents.[13] He also had several recordings with major groups including the London Symphony Orchestra, the Dutch Metropole Orchestra, and the Chicago Jazz Orchestra, hundreds of high school and college ensembles, his own duos, trios, quartets, quintets, sextets, octets, and two big bands: Clark Terry's Big Bad Band and Clark Terry's Young Titans of Jazz. In February 2004, Terry guest starred as himself, on Little Bill, a children's television series. Terry was a resident of Bayside, Queens, and Corona, Queens, New York, later moving to Haworth, New Jersey, and then Pine Bluff, Arkansas.[14][15] His autobiography was published in 2011.[3] Taylor Ho Bynum wrote in The New Yorker that it "captures his gift for storytelling and his wry humor, especially in chronicling his early years on the road, with struggles through segregation and gigs in juke joints and carnivals, all while developing one of most distinctive improvisational voices in music history."[16] According to his own website Terry was "one of the most recorded jazz artists in history and had performed for eight American Presidents."[17] In April 2014, the documentary Keep on Keepin' On, followed Terry over four years, to document his mentorship of the 23-year-old blind piano prodigy Justin Kauflin, as the Kauflin prepared to compete in an elite, international competition.[18] In December 2014 the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis and Cécile McLorin Salvant visited Terry, who had celebrated his 94th birthday on December 14, at the Jefferson Regional Medical Center. A lively rendition of "Happy Birthday" was played.[19] Death and tributes Terry performing at the White House with singer Nnenna Freelon in 2006 On February 13, 2015, it was announced that Terry had entered hospice care to manage his advanced diabetes.[20] He died on February 21, 2015.[21][22] Writing in The New York Times, Peter Keepnews said Terry "was acclaimed for his impeccable musicianship, loved for his playful spirit and respected for his adaptability. Although his sound on both trumpet and the rounder-toned flugelhorn (which he helped popularize as a jazz instrument) was highly personal and easily identifiable, he managed to fit it snugly into a wide range of musical contexts."[23] Writing in UK's The Daily Telegraph, Martin Chilton said: "Terry was a music educator and had a deep and lasting influence on the course of jazz. Terry became a mentor to generations of jazz players, including Miles Davis, Wynton Marsalis and composer-arranger Quincy Jones."[9] Interviewing Terry in 2005, fellow jazz trumpeter Scotty Barnhart said he was "... one of the most incredibly versatile musicians to ever live ... a jazz trumpet master that played with the greatest names in the history of the music ..."[24] Southeast Missouri State University hosts the Clark Terry/Phi Mu Alpha Jazz Festival, an annual tribute to the musician. The festival began in 1998, and has grown in size every year. The festival showcases outstanding student musicians and guest artists at the university's River Campus.[25][26] The University of New Hampshire hosts the Clark Terry Jazz Festival every year; it showcases middle- and high-school jazz musicians from all over New England.[27] On June 25, 2019, The New York Times Magazine listed Clark Terry among hundreds of artists whose material was reportedly destroyed in the 2008 Universal fire.[28] Awards and honors Terry performing with the Great Lakes Navy Band Jazz Ensemble Over 250 awards, medals and honors, including: Induction into the Jazz at Lincoln Center Nesuhi Ertegun Jazz Hall of Fame (2013)[29] The 2010 Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, two Grammy certificates, three Grammy nominations[30] Induction into the Down Beat Jazz Hall of Fame[31] The National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master Award (1991)[32] In 1988 an Honorary Doctorate of Music from Berklee College of Music.[33] Sixteen honorary doctorates[34] Keys to several cities[35] Jazz Ambassador for U.S. State Department tours in the Middle East and Africa[36] A knighthood in Germany[37] Charles E.

He was 82. Born in Wartrace, Tennessee in 1926, Cleveland recorded a number of albums as a leader for the EmArcy label in the 1950s, but most of his contributions were made on others’ recordings. In addition to the above, Cleveland worked with Cannonball Adderley, Art Farmer, Gene Krupa, Charles Mingus, Wes Montgomery, Sonny Rollins, Jimmy Rushing, Jimmy Smith, Clark Terry, Dizzy Gillespie, James Moody, Gerry Mulligan and Dinah Washington. He played in Thelonious Monk’s 1967 octet and then went on to play in the house band for The Merv Griffin Show on TV. Ernest Harold "Benny" Bailey (13 August 1925 – 14 April 2005) was an American jazz trumpeter.[1] Contents 1 Biography 2 Discography 3 See also 4 References 5 External links Biography A native of Cleveland, Ohio, Bailey briefly studied flute and piano before turning to trumpet. He attended the Cleveland Conservatory of Music.[2] He was influenced by Cleveland native Tadd Dameron and had a significant influence on other Cleveland musicians, such as Albert Ayler, Bob Cunningham, Bobby Few, Bill Hardman, and Frank Wright. Bailey played with Tony Lovano, father of Joe Lovano. In the early 1940s he worked with Bull Moose Jackson and Scatman Crothers.[1] He later worked with Dizzy Gillespie and toured with Lionel Hampton.[3] During a European tour with Hampton he remained in Europe and spent time in Sweden, where he worked with Harry Arnold's big band.[1] He preferred big bands over small groups, and he became associated with several big bands in Europe, including the Kenny Clarke/Francy Boland Big Band. His time with Quincy Jones led to a brief return to the United States in 1960. He was invited to the studio as part of Freddie Redd's sextet to record Redd's Blues after meeting the pianist during a tour in Sweden. He returned to Europe, first to Germany, then the Netherlands, where he settled permanently. In 1969 he played on Eddie Harris and Les McCann's album Swiss Movement, recorded live at the Montreux Jazz Festival, although it was not his usual style of music. In 1988 he worked with British clarinetist Tony Coe[1] and recorded albums until 2000 when he was in his mid-70s. Bailey died at home in Amsterdam on April 14, 2005.[1] Discography Quincy - Here We Come (Metronome, 1959) also released as The Music of Quincy Jones by Argo in 1961 Big Brass (Candid, 1960) Soul Eyes (MPS 1968) Folklore in Swing (MPS, 1966) The Balkan in My Soul (MPS, 1968) Soul Eyes: Jazz Live at the Domicile Munich (MPS 1968) Mirrors (The Amazing Benny Bailey) (Freedom 1971) Islands (Enja 1976) Serenade to a Planet (Ego, 1976) East of Isar with Sal Nistico (Ego, 1978) Grand Slam (Jazzcraft, 1978) While My Lady Sleeps (Gemini, 1990) No Refill (TCB, 1994) Angel Eyes (Laika, 1995) Peruvian Nights (TCB, 1996) I Thought About You (Laika, 1996) The Satchmo Legacy (Enja, 2000) With Count Basie Basie in Sweden (Roulette, 1962) With the Kenny Clarke/Francy Boland Big Band Jazz Is Universal (Atlantic, 1962) Handle with Care (Atlantic, 1963) Now Hear Our Meanin' (Columbia, 1965 [1963]) Swing, Waltz, Swing (Philips, 1966) Sax No End (SABA, 1967) Out of the Folk Bag (Columbia, 1967) 17 Men and Their Music (Campi, 1967) All Smiles (MPS, 1968) Faces (MPS, 1969) Latin Kaleidoscope (MPS, 1969) Fellini 712 (MPS, 1969) All Blues (MPS, 1969) More Smiles (MPS, 1969) Clarke Boland Big Band en Concert avec Europe 1 (Tréma, 1992 [1969]) Off Limits (Polydor, 1970) November Girl with Carmen McRae (Black Lion, 1975 [1970]) Change of Scenes with Stan Getz (Verve, 1971) With Eric Dolphy Berlin Concerts (1961) With Stan Getz Imported from Europe (Verve, 1958) With Benny Golson Stockholm Sojourn (Prestige, 1964) With Dexter Gordon Sophisticated Giant (Columbia, 1977) Revelation (SteepleChase, 1995 [1974]) The Rainbow People (Steeplechase, 2002 [1974]) Round Midnight (SteepleChase, 1991 [1974]) With Quincy Jones Quincy's Home Again (Metronome, 1958) - also released as Harry Arnold + Big Band + Quincy Jones = Jazz!

Quincy Jones described Bailey as "a completely authoritative trumpet player who never resorts to clichés and is never at a loss". In addition to these qualities, Bailey could also lead an orchestral brass section with firmness and unmatched precision. Ernest Harold "Benny" Bailey was born in Cleveland, Ohio, on August 13 1925. His father was an amateur saxophonist and his mother played the piano. As a child he learned piano and flute, but finally settled on the trumpet, which he studied at the Cleveland Conservatory. "There was a Cleveland style on trumpet," he said. "All the guys were very melodic and had a brilliant sound." His first jazz inspiration was Freddie Webster, the Cleveland trumpeter who also inspired Miles Davis. He later fell under the spell of Roy Eldridge and Dizzy Gillespie. Bailey began playing professionally, while still in his teens, with the rhythm and blues singers Bull Moose Jackson and Scatman Crothers. He joined Dizzy Gillespie's band in 1947, making his first visit to Europe the following year. On his return he joined the Lionel Hampton Orchestra and remained until 1953. He appears with Hampton in the short 1950 film, Air Mail Special. During this period, Hampton enjoyed great popularity in Europe and toured there regularly. Attracted by the continental lifestyle, Bailey stayed on in Sweden at the end of a tour and became a prominent figure on the Scandinavian jazz scene. From 1957 to 1959, he was in Harry Arnold's radio band in Stockholm, with which he recorded a piece written for him by Quincy Jones, Meet Benny Bailey. Jones was putting together a band to tour Europe with the show Free And Easy, and Bailey joined it. The show flopped, but Jones toured France, Germany and Scandinavia until his money ran out. In 1960 Bailey returned briefly to the United States, where he took part in the "alternative" Newport Jazz Festival mounted by a group of disgruntled musicians, including the drummer Max Roach, with whom he recorded an album. He returned to Europe soon afterwards and settled in Cologne, where he became a founder-member of the Clarke-Boland Big Band. This ensemble, founded by the American drummer Kenny Clarke and the Belgian pianist and composer Francy Boland, was a truly international outfit, with leading musicians from many European countries, including Britain's Ronnie Scott, and a large contingent of expatriate Americans. Benny Bailey remained a member until 1974, when the band was dissolved. He features prominently on all its recordings. Although he had neither an agent nor a personal manager, Bailey managed to maintain an extremely complicated schedule which entailed constant travel. In 1961 he recorded in Berlin with the avant-garde saxophonist Eric Dolphy; in 1969 he made a celebrated appearance with the pianist Les McCann at the Montreux Festival; he also regularly appeared alongside a parade of top soloists around Europe. It was said that, if a composer or bandleader anywhere in Europe had a particularly tricky or demanding job for a trumpeter, Benny Bailey's phone would ring. In this role he appeared with the orchestras of Kurt Edelhagen, Jack Diéval and many others, as well as with the Danish Radio Orchestra, the Metropole Orchestra of Dutch radio, the BBC Big Band and regional radio bands in Germany. Bailey made occasional visits home; during one such trip, in 1981, he recorded an album with the saxophonist Charlie Rouse, under the group name of the Upper Manhattan Jazz Society. Despite the esteem in which he was held, Bailey made remarkably few records under his own name. A rare exception was the CD For Heaven's Sake, recorded in London with the British saxophonist Tony Coe in 1988, which perhaps captures his mellow yet adventurous style best of all. Benny Bailey's death was sudden and unexpected. His diary was full for the coming months. ahib Shihab (born Edmund Gregory; June 23, 1925, Savannah, Georgia – October 24, 1989, Nashville, Tennessee) was an American jazz and hard bop saxophonist (baritone, alto, and soprano) and flautist. He variously worked with Luther Henderson, Thelonious Monk, Fletcher Henderson, Tadd Dameron, and Dizzy Gillespie amongst others.[1] Contents 1 Biography 2 Discography 2.1 Por leader 2.2 As sideman 3 References Biography This section needs additional citations for verification.

He played lead alto with Fletcher Henderson in the mid 1940s. He was one of the first jazz musicians to convert to Islam and changed his name in 1947. During the late 1940s, Shihab played with Thelonious Monk and on July 23, 1951 he recorded with Monk for the Lp Genius of Modern Music: Volume 2. During this period, he also appeared on recordings by Art Blakey, Kenny Dorham and Benny Golson. The invitation to play with Dizzy Gillespie's big band in the early 1950s was of particular significance as it marked Shihab's switch to baritone. On August 12, 1958, Shihab was one of the musicians photographed by Art Kane in his famous photograph known as "A Great Day in Harlem". In 1959, he toured Europe with Quincy Jones after getting disillusioned with racial politics in United States and ultimately settled in Scandinavia. He worked for Copenhagen Polytechnic and wrote scores for television, cinema and theatre. In 1961, he joined the Kenny Clarke/Francy Boland Big Band and remained a member of the band for the 12 years it existed. He married a Danish woman and raised a family in Europe, although he remained a conscious African-American still sensitive to racial issues. In the Eurovision Song Contest 1966, Shihab accompanied Lill Lindfors and Svante Thuresson on stage for the Swedish entry "Nygammal Vals". In 1973, Shihab returned to the United States for a three-year hiatus, working as a session man for rock and pop artists and also doing some copy writing for local musicians. He spent his remaining years between New York and Europe and played in a partnership with Art Farmer.[3] From 1985-86, Shihab was a visiting artist at Rutgers University.[4] Shihab died October 24, 1989, in Nashville, Tennessee, United States, aged 64.[1] Discography Por leader 1957: The Jazz We Heard Last Summer (Savoy) split album shared with Herbie Mann 1957: Jazz Sahib (Savoy) 1963: Sahib's Jazz Party (Debut) also released as Conversations 1964: Summer Dawn (Argo) 1965: Sahib Shihab and the Danish Radio Jazz Group (Oktav) 1968: Seeds (Vogue Schallplatten) 1964-70: Companionship (Vogue Schallplatten) 1972: Sentiments (Storyville) 1972: La Marche dans le Désert - Sahib Shihab + Gilson Unit (Futura) 1973: Flute Summit (Atlantic) with Jeremy Steig, James Moody and Chris Hinze 1988: Soul Mates (Uptown) with Charlie Rouse 1998: And All Those Cats (compilation) As sideman With Art Blakey Theory of Art (1957) Art Blakey Big Band (Bethlehem, 1957) With Brass Fever Time Is Running Out (Impulse!, 1976) With Donald Byrd Jazz Lab (Columbia, 1957) with Gigi Gryce Modern Jazz Perspective (Columbia, 1957) with Gigi Gryce With Betty Carter Out There (1958) I Can't Help It (1992) With the Kenny Clarke/Francy Boland Big Band Jazz Is Universal (Atlantic, 1962) Handle with Care (Atlantic, 1963) Now Hear Our Meanin' (Columbia, 1963 [1965]) Swing, Waltz, Swing (Philips, 1966) Sax No End (SABA, 1967) Out of the Folk Bag (Columbia, 1967) 17 Men and Their Music (Campi, 1967) All Smiles (MPS, 1968) Faces (MPS, 1969) Latin Kaleidoscope (MPS, 1968) Fellini 712 (MPS, 1969) All Blues (MPS, 1969) More Smiles (MPS, 1969) Clarke Boland Big Band en Concert avec Europe 1 (Tréma, 1969 [1992]) Off Limits (Polydor, 1970) November Girl (Black Lion, 1970 [1975]) with Carmen McRae Change of Scenes (Verve, 1971) with Stan Getz With John Coltrane Coltrane (1957) With Tadd Dameron Fontainebleau (1956) With Art Farmer Manhattan (Soul Note, 1981) With Curtis Fuller and Hampton Hawes Curtis Fuller and Hampton Hawes with French Horns (Status, 1957 [1962]) - also released as Baritones and French Horns (Prestige, 1957) With Dizzy Gillespie Jazz Recital (Norgran, 1955) The Dizzy Gillespie Reunion Big Band (MPS, 1968) With Benny Golson Benny Golson's New York Scene (Contemporary, 1957) Take a Number from 1 to 10 (Argo, 1961) With Johnny Griffin Lady Heavy Bottom's Waltz (1968) Griff 'N Bags With George Gruntz Noon in Tunisia (1967) With Roy Haynes Jazz Abroad (Emarcy, 1955) With Milt Jackson Plenty, Plenty Soul (Atlantic, 1957) With Philly Joe Jones Drums Around the World (Riverside, 1959) With Quincy Jones The Birth of a Band!

But he was also a fluent soloist on the alto, as well as the baritone sax, the latter being the instrument with which he became most frequently associated. Shihab first worked professionally with the Luther Henderson band at the age of 13 while still studying with Elmer Snowden. At 16, he attended the Boston Conservatory (1941-1942) and later worked as the lead alto in the 1944-1945 Fletcher Henderson band, billed as Eddie Gregory. After his religious conversion, he fell in with the early bop movement, recording several now-famous sides on alto with Thelonious Monk for Blue Note in 1947 and 1951, and playing with Art Blakey in 1949-1950 and the Tadd Dameron band in 1949. Following some empty patches where he had to work odd jobs for a living, Shihab played with Dizzy Gillespie in 1951-1952, Illinois Jacquet in 1952-1955, and the Oscar Pettiford big band in 1957. After arriving in Europe with Quincy Jones' big band in 1959-1960, he remained there until 1986 (mostly in Copenhagen), except for a long Los Angeles interlude (1973-1976). While on the Continent, he played in the Clarke-Boland big band for nearly a decade (1963-1972); he can be heard applying advanced vocal effects to his attractive flute work on the superb Clarke-Boland Big Band LP (Atlantic, 1963). He recorded only a handful of albums as a leader over the decades for Savoy, Argo, Atlantic, and Chess; a 1963 live date in Copenhagen is available on Black Lion. Philip Wells Woods (November 2, 1931 – September 29, 2015) was an American jazz alto saxophonist, clarinetist, bandleader, and composer. Contents 1 Biography 2 Awards 3 Discography 3.1 As leader/co-leader 3.2 Compilation 3.3 As sideman 4 Notes 5 References 6 External links Biography Woods was born in Springfield, Massachusetts. He studied music with Lennie Tristano, who influenced him greatly, at the Manhattan School of Music and at the Juilliard School. His friend, Joe Lopes, coached him on clarinet as there was no saxophone major at Juilliard at the time. Although he did not copy Charlie "Bird" Parker, he was known as the New Bird, a nickname also given to other alto saxophone players such as Sonny Stitt and Cannonball Adderley. In the 1950s, Woods began to lead his own bands. Quincy Jones invited him to accompany Dizzy Gillespie on a world tour sponsored by the U.S. State Department. A few years later he toured Europe with Jones, and in 1962 he toured Russia with Benny Goodman.[1] After moving to France in 1968, Woods led the European Rhythm Machine, a group which tended toward avant-garde jazz. He returned to the United States in 1972 and, after an unsuccessful attempt to establish an electronic group, he formed a quintet which was still performing, with some changes of personnel, in 2004. As his theme, Woods used a piece titled "How's Your Mama?" Woods earned the top alto sax player award almost 30 times in Downbeat magazine's annual readers' poll. His quintet was awarded the top small combo title several times.[1] In 1979, Woods made the recording More Live at the Armadillo World Headquarters in Austin, Texas. Perhaps his best known recorded work as a sideman is a pop piece, his alto sax solo on Billy Joel's 1977 "Just the Way You Are". He also played the alto sax solo on Steely Dan's "Doctor Wu" from their 1975 album Katy Lied, as well as Paul Simon's "Have a Good Time" from the 1975 album Still Crazy After All These Years. Woods in 1983 Although Woods was primarily a saxophonist, he was also a clarinet player and solos can be found scattered through his recordings. One particular example is his clarinet solo on "Misirlou" on the album Into the Woods. Woods, along with Rick Chamberlain and Ed Joubert, founded the organization Celebration of the Arts (COTA) in 1978 late one night in the bar at the Deer Head Inn in Delaware Water Gap. The organization would eventually become the Delaware Water Gap Celebration of the Arts. Their initial goal was to help foster an appreciation of jazz and its relationship to other artistic disciplines. Each year, the organization hosts the Celebration of the Arts Festival in the town of Delaware Water Gap in September. In 2005, Jazzed Media released the documentary Phil Woods: A Life in E Flat – Portrait of a Jazz Legend, directed by Rich Lerner and produced by Graham Carter.[2] Woods was married to Chan Parker, the common-law wife of Charlie Parker, for seventeen years and was the stepfather to Chan's daughter, Kim.[1] On September 4, 2015, he performed a tribute to Charlie Parker with Strings at the Manchester Craftsmen's Guild and announced at the end of the show that he would be retiring. He died on September 29, 2015, at the age of 83.[3] On June 25, 2019, The New York Times Magazine listed Phil Woods among hundreds of artists whose material was reportedly destroyed in the 2008 Universal fire.[4] Awards Grammy Award, Best Large Jazz Ensemble Performance: Images, 1975[5] Grammy Award, Best Instrumental Jazz Performance, Individual or Group: Live from the Show Boat (1977), More Live (1982), At the Vanguard (1983)[5] NEA Jazz Masters, 2007 Discography Woods in Oslo, 2007 As leader/co-leader 1954: Pot Pie (Prestige) 1955: Woodlore (Prestige) 1956: Pairing Off (Prestige) 1956: The Young Bloods (Prestige) with Donald Byrd 1957: Four Altos (Prestige) with Gene Quill, Hal Stein, Sahib Shihab 1957: Phil and Quill with Prestige with Gene Quill 1957: Sugan (Status) 1957: Warm Woods (Epic) 1961: Rights of Swing (Candid) 1967: Greek Cooking (Impulse!) 1968: Alto Summit (MPS) with Lee Konitz, Pony Poindexter and Leo Wright 1968: Alive And Well In Paris (Pathé) 1969: Round Trip (Verve) 1970: Phil Woods and his European Rhythm Machine at the Frankfurt Jazz Festival (Embryo) 1970: Phil Woods and his European Rhythm Machine at the Montreux Jazz Festival (MGM) 1972: Live At Montreux 72 (Verve) 1974: New Music by the New Phil Woods Quartet (Testament) 1974: Musique du Bois (Muse) 1975: Floresta Canto (RCA) with Chris Gunning Orchestra 1975: Images (RCA Victor) with Michel Legrand 1976: Phil Woods & The Japanese Rhythm Machine (RCA Victor) 1976: The New Phil Woods Album 1976: Altology (Prestige) 1977: Live from the Show Boat 1977: Summer Afternoon Jazz (Hindsight) 1978: Song for Sisyphus (King (Japan)) 1979: I Remember (Gryphon) 1980: Phil Woods Quartet Live (Clean Cuts) 1980: Phil Woods/Lew Tabackin (Omnisound) with Lew Tabackin 1981: Three for All (Enja) with Tommy Flanagan and Red Mitchell 1981: 'More' Live (Adelphi) 1982: Live from New York (Palo Alto) 1983: At the Vanguard (Antilles) 1984: Integrity (Red) 1984: Heaven (Evidence) 1986: Dizzy Gillespie Meets Phil Woods Quintet (Timeless) with Dizzy Gillespie 1987: Bop Stew; Bouquet (Concord) 1988: Evolution; Here's to My Lady (Concord) 1989: Embracable You (Philology) 1989: My Man Benny, My Man Phil (MusicMasters) with Benny Carter 1989: Here's to My Lady (Chesky) 1990: Flash (Concord) 1990: Phil's Mood (Philology) 1991: All Bird Children; Real Life (Concord) 1991: Flowers for Hodges (Concord) 1991: Real Life, The Little Big Band (Chesky) 1992: Full House (Milestone) 1994: Just Friends; Our Monk (Philology) 1995: Plays the Music of Jim McNeely (TCB) 1996: Mile High Jazz Live in Denver (Concord) 1996: Another Time, Another Place (Evening Star) with Benny Carter 1996: Astor and Elis (Chesky) 1996: The Complete Concert (JMS) with Gordon Beck 1997: Celebration!

He was 83. The cause was complications of emphysema, Joel Chriss, his longtime booking agent, said. Mr. Woods was one of the leading alto saxophonists in the generation that followed Charlie Parker, who had set an imposing new bar for the instrument while defining the terms of bebop. Rigorous, complex and brisk, bebop’s stylistic language would be a constant for Mr. Woods throughout his prolific career, as both a leader and a sideman. For much of that career, he was a sought-after section player in big bands because of his ability, unusual at the time, to read sheet music with as much breezy authority as he brought to his solos. He recorded with the composer-arrangers Oliver Nelson, Michel Legrand and George Russell, among many others, and helped the trumpeter Clark Terry establish his Big Bad Band. One of Mr. Woods’s early supporters was Quincy Jones, who in 1956 brought him on a State Department-sponsored tour with the trumpeter and bebop pioneer Dizzy Gillespie. Mr. Woods quickly became a Gillespie protégé, and in some respects a surrogate for Parker, Gillespie’s former front-line partner, who had died in 1955. Parker’s nickname was Bird, and for a while Mr. Woods was known to some, admiringly if a little back-handedly, as “the new Bird.” The association was solidified when he married Parker’s widow, Chan, in 1957. (That marriage ended in divorce.) On the recommendation of the producer Phil Ramone, an old classmate at the Juilliard School, Mr. Woods was featured on Mr. Simon’s 1975 album, “Still Crazy After All These Years,” playing a quicksilver bebop cadenza on the song “Have a Good Time.” That same year he played a solo on the Steely Dan tune “Doctor Wu.” And in 1977 Mr. Woods was prominently featured on Mr. Joel’s ballad “Just the Way You Are,” which became a Top 10 hit and won two Grammy Awards.

After inheriting a saxophone at age 12, he began taking lessons at a local music shop and discovered that he was a quick study with a gifted ear. His first hero on the alto saxophone was Benny Carter, followed soon thereafter by Johnny Hodges, a star soloist in the Duke Ellington Orchestra, and then Parker. While still in high school, Mr. Woods often took the bus to New York City, haunting jazz clubs and studying with the pianist-composer Lennie Tristano. He also studied classical music at Juilliard for four years. He moved to France in 1968, frustrated with a working life dominated by commercial jingles and other work for hire. He found success almost immediately, touring with a band he called the European Rhythm Machine.

After five years, Mr. Woods returned to the United States an accomplished solo artist. From 1974 on, he led a band with the bassist Steve Gilmore and the drummer Bill Goodwin; in recent years the group has also included Brian Lynch on trumpet and either Bill Charlap or Bill Mays on piano. Mr. Woods also became a mentor to young musicians like the alto saxophonist Grace Kelly, with whom he released an album, “The Man With the Hat,” in 2011. Mr. Woods won four Grammy Awards, beginning in 1975 with “Images,” an orchestral album he made with Mr. Legrand. In 2007 he was named a National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master and received a Living Jazz Legend Award from the Kennedy Center. Mr. Woods, who lived in Delaware Water Gap, Pa., is survived by his wife, Jill Goodwin; a son, Garth; three stepdaughters, Kim Parker and Allisen and Tracy Trotter; and a grandson. Mr. Woods often declared, with a touch of self-deprecation, that he was more a stylist than an innovator. While he wrote dozens of compositions, they often pointed in the direction of his influences; they include “Charles Christopher” (Parker’s given name) and “All Bird’s Children.” His final concert, early this month in Pittsburgh, was a tribute to the album “Charlie Parker With Strings.” Backed by a local rhythm section and members of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, he brought his oxygen tank with him onstage.
