Extractions: Try to find the above book that has duplicated issues of a rare African-American music journal of 1919 and 1920, with extra pages of trade journal advertisements promoting black musicians, including Okeh ads from the 1920s promoting Louis Armstrong's Hot Five and Hot Seven records! Page above shows Mamie Smith. Click here to visit (or return to) Tim Gracyk's main page listing all articles. Above is a page from a mid-1898 catalog issued by the Kansas City Talking Machine Company. May C. Hyers was the first African-American female to make recordings. Her records were issued as brown wax cylinders, but none are known to have survived. She covered a variety of genres, from sentimental favorites such as "Ben Bolt" to hits of the day, including "Pumpkin Colored Coon" (KCTM cylinder #203). The above image of Hyers was made in the months that record companies began to take notice of a new American musical form, namely ragtime. The words "rag" and "ragtime" were added to record titles and record catalogs in the summer of 1898. I will discuss some African Americans who made early recordings and then early ragtime recordings. A few books claim that blacks never recorded before Mamie Smith cut the historic "Crazy Blues" for Okeh in August, 1920, but I can identify a handful who recorded in the 1890s and can think of about 25 black artists who recorded prior to 1920. Their names should be better known.

Extractions: Nächster Auftritt: 21.08., 11.00 Uhr Salzgitter-Lebenstedt, Cityfest Langjährige Mitglieder der Wolfsburger Jazzszene gründeten im Frühjahr 1989 die WOLFERINE JAZZBAND. Bezugnehmend auf die Heimatstadt der Band wurde bei der Namensgebung der Begriff "Wolverine" entsprechend abgewandelt. Ursprünglich die Bezeichnung für eine vor allem in Nordamerika beheimatete Marderart - zu deutsch: Vielfrass -, ist "Wolverine" auch als Spitzname für die Bewohner des US-Bundesstaates Michigan gebräuchlich. In den Jazz fand der Ausdruck Einzug durch den WOLVERINE BLUES von Jelly Roll Morton, natürlich auch die Erkennungsmelodie der WOLFERINE JAZZBAND, und die WOLVERINES, eine der berühmtesten Jazzbands der 20er Jahre um den Trompeter Bix Beiderbecke. Das Repertoire der WOLFERINE JAZZBAND umfasst die gesamte stilistische Bandbreite des traditionellen Jazz. Neben Ragtime- und New Orleans-Titeln werden auch Dixieland-Klassiker, Swing- und Blues-Themen sowie auch Spirituals stimmungsvoll präsentiert. Besetzung: Joachim Deichmann Kornett, Arr.

Gustav Stickley And The Craftsman Home Illustrated description by Ray Stubblebine of the houses built from plans published by Stickley in his magazine The Craftsman, from an exhibition by The Craftsman Farms Foundation. Hosted by ragtime. http://www.ragtime.org/arch/rs/RS_Homes.html
Extractions: Sponsored by: The search for Craftsman homes is a continuing project for Ray Stubblebine, the curator of this exhibition and author of the accompanying brochure. Ray has discovered many houses himself, and many have been pointed out to him by people all over the country who have been alert to their distinctive Craftsman features. GUSTAV STICKLEY (1858-1942) so synthesized, romanticized and popularized the Arts & Crafts style of architecture during the first two decades of this century that today the style is known generically as "Craftsman." However, only a house originating from plans published by Stickley through his magazine The Craftsman can be a true Craftsman Home. He published descriptions and drawings of homes in this magazine beginning in 1901. In the January 1904 issue, he featured the first official Craftsman Home and announced that henceforth the magazine would feature at least one house a month, and subscribers could send away for a set of plans for one house from the series per year, free of charge.

Extractions: Ragtime Fabrics is coordinating a Comfort for Katrina quilt making project Ragtime Fabrics is donating fabric, batting and notions to those who will donate time to making Comfort Quilts for the victims of the hurricane. Volunteers may come into Ragtime Fabrics during business hours and use the sewing center to iron fabric, cut pieces, sew pieces, complete quilts and quilt or tie the finished comforter. Others have brought finished quilts and comforters to Ragtime Fabrics to donate to the cause. Volunteers may also come into Ragtime Fabrics and pick up necessary donated items to work on quilts at home or with groups. The Gals at Ragtime ask that the comforters be returned to Ragtime Fabrics when completed so an embroidered label may be attatched that reads, "Made with love.Your friends, Harrisonburg, VA 9/05 Ragtime Fabrics". To date, 16 quilts were sent with the truck that left Broadway High School on September 8 and 11 quilts were sent on September 18 with the truck that the Bretheren Church sent South. Many more quilts are in the making and will be sent with the next organized effort sending essential items to the ravaged regions.
