Northwestern . . . The
trumpet great was at
Meadow Brook and stayed
at Excalibur until 2 a.m.
THAT JAZZ IS HERE
to stay . . . in a big way .. .
was the tribute to Don
Redmond at Detroit Insti-
tute of Arts, presented by
Greg Bloomfield.
The audience was made
up of people from all ages
. . . and the loudest applause
came from youths who have
"discovered" jazz . . . even
though they weren't even
born when Don was in his
prime . . . or when many of
the fellows on stage were
doing their big band gigs.
During intermission, two
young fellows were shaking
their heads and exclaiming
how unbelievable it was
that they had never heard
this kind of music before.
They certainly weren't
around when Dave Wil-
born was singing with the
McKinney's Cotton Pic-
kers at the old Arcadia or
Graystone . . . or when
"Doc" Cheathum was
playing trumpet with the
big bands ... or when
Benny Carter was tilting
his sax for Don and
others . . . and ,-Louis
Bellson was tabbed by
Duke Ellington as "The
world's greatest drum-
mer."
The jam session with
former Redmond associates
Benny, Louie and Doc, was
a classic . . . playing "Sugar-
foot," "Cherry" and "Ain't I
Good To You" among
others.
The band also included
Dave Hutson, now living in
California, Chuck
Robinette, Orrin Foslein,
Mel Fudge, George Benson
and Larry Barnett.
Gene Elzy, WJR an-
nouncer, added unlimited
class as master of cere-
monies . . . weaving his
words around the jazz
world.
This was jazz at its best
. . . with tunes like "Hon-
eysuckle Rose," "St.
Louis Shuffle," "Plain
Dirt," "Miss Hannah,"
"Never Swat a Fly" (1928)
sung by Orrin with his
megaphone voice, "My
Baby," etc.
Don Redmond was the
original leader of McKin-
ney's Cotton Pickers and
Benny Carter took over
leadership after him .. .
Benny was magnificent on
"My Girl Friday" . . . and
Ursula Walker had her
usual very fine voice and
presentation with "Easy
Street" and "Confectionery
Baby."
Naturally, there was Don
Redmond's theme song,
"Chant Of The Weeds" and
the 1932 favorite, "How Am
I Doing" (hey, hey, tweet,
tweet, tweet, tweet, twa) .
Also "Misty" by Errol
Garner and "Doc" raising
his trumpet high and beau-
tifully playing "What Can I
Say Dear After I Say I'm
Sorry" . . . and Dave Wil-
born singing "I Want A Lit-
tle Girl" among other songs
of yesteryears.
