Glenn miller

Une biographie de Glenn Miller, écrite par Claude Carrière, illustrée par Serge Dutfoy, accompagnée de 2 compact discs.<br /> L'empreinte indélébile qu'a laissée dans la mémoire collective l'orchestre de Glenn Miller constitue un des phénomènes les plus surprenants de la musique populaire du XXe siècle. Ce groupe, dont la courte histoire n'a duré qu'une demi-douzaine d'années, de 1938 à la disparition de son chef en 1944, semble avoir gravé pour l'éternité des succès qu'aucune mode ne pourra faire oublier. Moonlight Serenade, In The Mood, Pennsylvania 6-5000, une sonorité d'ensemble reconnaissable entre mille, le secret de sa gloire tenait sans doute à la parfaite adéquation entre ce qu'il donnait à entendre et à danser et les désirs du plus grand nombre.<br /> CD 1 GLENN MILLER<br /> The Army Air Force Band<br /><br /> 1 MOONLIGHT SERENADE (Miller)<br /> London, Nov. 1944, Glenn Miller and The American Band of The Allied Expeditionary Force<br /><br /> 2 IN THE MOOD (Garland)<br /> New York, 24 March 1944, Glenn Miller and The Army Air Forces Training Command Band<br /> Soloists (on tracks 2 to 20): <br /> Bernie Privin, Bobby Nichols, Zeke Zarchy (tp); Peanuts Hucko (cl); Hank Freeman (as); Vinnie Carbone, <br /> Jack Ferrier (ts); Mel Powell (p); Trigger Alpert (b); Ray McKinley (d).<br /><br /> 3 TUXEDO JUNCTION (Dash, Johnson, Hawkins)<br /> New York, 26 May 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 4 MISSION TO MOSCOW (Powell)<br /> New York, 10 March 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 5 A STRING OF PEARLS (Gray)<br /> New York, 21 April 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 6 AMERICAN PATROL (Meacham)<br /> New York, 21 April 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 7 SUN VALLEY JUMP (Gray)<br /> New York, 24 March 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 8 STEALIN' APPLES (Waller)<br /> New York, 24 March 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 9 SONG OF THE VOLGA BOATMEN (traditional)<br /> New York, 21 April 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 10 9:20 SPECIAL (Warren)<br /> New York, 19 May 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 11 JEEP JOCKEY JUMP (Gray)<br /> New York, 7 April 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 12 IT MUST BE JELLY (MacGregor, Williams)<br /> New York, 7 April 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 13 BUBBLE BATH (Powell)<br /> New York, 19 May 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 14 SNAFU JUMP (Gray)<br /> New York, 7 April 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 15 THERE'LL BE A HOT TIME IN THE TOWN OF BERLIN (Bushkin, DeVries)<br /> New York, 2 June 1944, same as track 2, <br /> featuring Ray McKinley, The Crew Chiefs and The Glee Club (voc).<br /><br /> 16 7-0-5 (Miller)<br /> New York, 5 May 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 17 DON'T BE THAT WAY (Sampson, Goodman)<br /> New York, 5 May 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 18 ANVIL CHORUS (Verdi)<br /> New York, 10 March 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 19 LONG TALL MAMA (May)<br /> New York, 19 May 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /> 20 CARIBBEAN CLIPPER (Gray)<br /> New York, 10 March 1944, same as track 2.<br /><br /><br /><br /> CD 2 GLENN MILLER<br /> The Dance Band<br /><br /> Glenn Miller And His Orchestra<br /><br /> 1 PENNSYLVANIA 6-5000 (Gray)<br /> New York, 28 April 1940<br /><br /> 2 LITTLE BROWN JUG (Winner)<br /> New York, 10 April 1939<br /><br /> 3 CHATTANOOGA CHOO-CHOO (Warren, Gordon)<br /> New York, 7 May 1941<br /> Vocal: Tex Beneke and The Modernaires<br /><br /> 4 SUNRISE SERENADE (Carle)<br /> New York, 10 April 1939<br /><br /> 5 AT LAST (Warren, Gordon)<br /> Hollywood, 20 May 1942<br /> Vocal: Ray Eberle<br /><br /> 6 (I'VE GOT A GAL IN) KALAMAZOO (Warren, Gordon)<br /> Hollywood, 20 May 1942<br /> Vocal: Tex Beneke and The Modernaires<br /><br /> 7 SERENADE IN BLUE (Warren, Gordon)<br /> Hollywood, 20 May 1942<br /> Vocal: Ray Eberle and The Modernaires<br /><br /> 8 MOONLIGHT COCKTAIL (Gannon, Roberts)<br /> New York, 8 Dec. 1941<br /> Vocal: Ray Eberle and The Modernaires<br /><br /> 9 ADIOS (Madriguera, Woods)<br /> Chicago, 25 June 1941<br /><br /> 10 STARDUST (Carmichael)<br /> New York, 29 Jan. 1940<br /><br /> 11 AND THE ANGELS SING (Elman, Mercer)<br /> New York, 4 April 1939<br /> Vocal: Ray Eberle<br /><br /> 12 MY BLUE HEAVEN (Whiting, Donaldson)<br /> New York, 28 April 1940<br /><br /> 13 I KNOW WHY (AND SO DO YOU) (Warren, Gordon)<br /> New York, 7 May 1941<br /> Vocal: Paula Kelly and The Modernaires<br /><br /> 14 YOU STEPPED OUT OF A DREAM (Brown, Kahn)<br /> New York, 17 Jan. 1941<br /> Vocal: Ray Eberle and The Modernaires<br /><br /> 15 PERFIDIA (Dominguez, Leeds)<br /> New York, 19 Feb. 1941<br /> Vocal: Dorothy Claire and The Modernaires<br /><br /> 16 DON'T SIT UNDER THE APPLE TREE (Stept, Tobias, Brown)<br /> New York, 18 Feb. 1942<br /> Vocal: Marion Hutton, Tex Beneke and The Modernaires<br /><br /> 17 THE NEARNESS OF YOU (Carmichael, Washington)<br /> New York, 28 April 1940<br /> Vocal: Ray Eberle <br /><br /> 18 WHEN JOHNNY COMES MARCHING HOME (Gilmore, Dickinson, Conway)<br /> New York, 18 Feb. 1942<br /> Vocal: Tex Beneke, Marion Hutton and The Modernaires<br /><br /> 19 BLUEBERRY HILL (Rose, Lewis, Stock)<br /> New York, 13 June 1940<br /> Vocal: Ray Eberle <br /><br /> 20 FIVE O'CLOCK WHISTLE (Irwin, Gannon, Myrow)<br /> New York, 12 Sep. 1942<br /> Vocal: Marion Hutton <br /><br />
