Transcription Any written text transcribed from a sound [Front cover] Jean Kittrell To my dear brother-in-law and sister - with much love - Jean Kittrell Nov. 75 ALONE Jazz Vocals & Piano [Inside jacket] JEAN KITTRELL ALONE It's hard to think that Jean Kittrell might ever be alone. She has brightened the output of traditional jazz bands for a number of years with her special enthusiasm and sparkle. And her ebullient personality gives her such great personal magnetism, so that in your mind's eye, you always think of her as the center of attraction in any crowd of happy music lovers. But here she is --ALONE. And ain't it wonderful. If you're looking for that "All Alone By My Telephone" mood, this album is not for you. This is Jean Kittrell at her hip-swinging, bugle bead busting, bluesy best adding just the right amount of spice to hark you back to speakeasys, Pierce Arrows, and the Lost Generation. Jean Kittrell is the pluperfect entertainer, creating hard'driving, leave-your-subtleties-in-the-closet images of loving, blues, and vamping in their most open and flagrant fashion. She is also Jean Kittrell, Ph.D., Professor of English at Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville. In the living room of her home is a large portrait of Blues immortal, Bessie Smith, and Bessie's "Give Me A Pigfoot and a Bottle of Beer" vibes can be felt clearly as Professor Kittrell sings to us of unrequired love and evil hearted women. In 1974, Jean came to the Washington area to attend a professional seminar at the University of Maryland. And while she was here she exhausted jazz fans who spent week night evenings at the local watering holes, getting high on Jean's vivacious singing and playing, and then going to work each day in less than top condition. I can personally attest to the fact that she has more stamina than I do. Fortunately during that hectic week, she found time to go to the Fat Cat Studio in Manassas for this record date. It became in the coldly precise manner in which Fat Cat conducts all of his music business. Most of those who were to be present were late. Fat Cat lost his stop watch, there was microphone trouble for a while and well, you know... Fortunately, the artist didn't let these petty misfortunes get to her and she sailed through the first several numbers of the album without retakes. Jean may be a professional educator, but make no mistake she is also a highly professional musician. However, after a while, as in any session, the pressure began to build and the natives began to get silly. It took as long to do the last two number (one of them never did make the album) as it did all of the rest. Even Jean succumbed to the laughter, and the unedited master tape sounds in some places as if Jean were doing a benefit at Bedlam. And it isn't exactly fair to say Jean was all alone. On "Delia" she is backed up by a particularly sorry Lost Chorus that no self-respecting back-alley beer hall would countenance. The haywire choir included Kay Giltmier, Fat Cat, Tom and Fanny Martin, Eleanor Johnson, Fred and Jackie Dietrich, and myself. It is expected that all of us will be drummed out of the Potomac River Jazz Club upon release of this record. But despite the unfair competition, Jean Kittrell shines forth loud and clear. I am a special fan of the Kittrell magic. I have all of her records. This is far and away her best effort. On this record, Jean conjures up a world of roistering dandies with "a handful of gimme and a mouthful of much obliged." As for the women, they are "refrigeratin' mamas" who chill the philandering carousers into icicles. And what else could these poor dears do after all. The rascals spend their money on booze and broads when the rent is due, and when they are "hangin' 'round", their performance as lovers isn't sufficient to keep these dynamite ladies happy. One goes so far as to tell her fella he needs vitamins, and to come around and see her after he's been to the drug store. But behind all of these financial and sexual conflicts, there is always the realization that someday the bum will catch a south bound rattler and she'll wind up with the "Gulf Coast Blues." Sad! Sad! Sad! But there is always just a lilt of humor in Jean's voice to let you know that tomorrow there will be other men and other loves. It sure beats "As the World Turns." My only regret about this record is that a Kittrell performance, in addition to being musically gratifying, is also a unique visual experience. Jean hurls herself, her smile and her wildly swishing fringed dresses into every low down beat of the music. But this performance is truly a satisfying alternative to Jean Kittrell live.

Robert E. Lee, a floating restaurant/saloon permanently moore on the Mississippi River just south of the famous Saarinen Arch memorializing St. Louis as the Gateway to the Western frontier. In the beginning we were just having fun playing jazz, and I do mean fun. These guys put humor into their music and crack wild jokes between tunes as well. As the months passed, and night after night they played beautiful, unique, often astounding, improvisations, I realized I was working with two world-class musicians. So many times I described their performances as "incredible" to our audiences that I finally said, "This Friday night trio is going to be called the JAZZ INCREDIBLES because you two are incredible, and I find it incredible that I'm playing piano with you." Thus our modest name came about. "BIG JOHN" BECKER, a native St. Louisan, is famous for his rapid single-string technique, eleveating the tenor banjor to a melodious solo isntrument. One of the world's greatest tenor banjoists, he is often compared to Harry Reser and Eddie Peabody. John began playing banjo at age eleven, then plaed guitar for twenty years before returning to the banjo in 1950. A professional musician since 1937, Becker became well known during the golden era of St. Louis' Gaslight Square, leading BIG JOHN'S BANJO BAND at the Golden Eagle and the Lorelei. Subsequently he and bassist Russ Polette formed a mighty duo, working for years at the Bayou Belle, a popular St. Louis Restaurant. After John and I played our first gig together in 1977, paired by booker and band leader Jack Engler, we liked our sound and decided to form a trio with bassist Bill Jouston. Charlie Wills booked us as the BLUES EMPORIUM into the RELee for a three-week engagement in January 1978. In 1983 Bill retired and Red joined the trio, which eventually became the JI. That three-week engagement on the Lee lasted thirdteen years (1978-1990). DAVID "RED" LEHR from New Athens, Illinios, where he owns a meat market and processing plant, is a jazz virtuoso of the sousaphone - a world-class musician combining technique with showmanship. His musical career began at age five when he was big enough, standing on an orange crate, to play his daddy's trombone. In high school, as the strongest and tallest kid, he began to play the big sousaphone with which he has intrigued audiences ever since. In 1955 he began a long-standing engagement in St. Louis at the Banjo Palace (across from Busch Stadium on Market Street), followed by two years at The Sting (on Lindbergh). In annual trips to New Orleans he made frequent guest appearances in jazz spots on Bourbon Street and elsewhere in the French Quarter. Red and I became acquainted when his four-piece OLD ST. LOUIS LEVEE BAND (they were together sixteen years before I met them) joined me on Saturday nights on the RELee in 1978 for what turned out to be another thirteen year engagement. So Friday nights Red and I played with John in the trio and Saturday nights with the OSLLB. And what about JEAN KITTRELL? Well, I was born in Birmingham, Alabama, where I grew up playing piano in the Southern Baptist Church. At Blue Mountain College, Mississippi I didn't major in piano - I didn't like the teacher's pianistic style. Instead I majored in music theory - harmony, counterpoint, and musical coposition - valuable knowledge for jazz, which I began playing in 1957 in Norfolk, Virginia, where my then-husband, cornetist Ed Kittrell, and I organized the CHESAPEAKE BAY JASS BAND. In 1958 we moved to Chicago, joined the CHICAGO STOMPERS, and took them to Germany for a two-month tour in 1959. Then I dropped out of jazz until 1967, when I began a two-year SRO solo engagement in St. Louis at the Old Levee House on Laclede's Landing. After completing my Ph.D. in Modern British Literature (1973), I joined the English faculty at Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville and the MISSISSIPPI MUDCATS JAZZ BAND. Eventually I served four years as Chair of the English Department, while playing jazz on the weekends. The JAZZ INCREDIBLES gradually became known throughout the USA, appearing in several jazz festivals. Then we traveled abroad to France, Germany, and The Netherlands, on three one-month European tours in 1985, 1987, and 1989. We were also featured in the week-long Edinburgh, Scotland, Jazz Festival in 1989, 1990, and 1991, where John's banjo artistry made him an outstanding favorite with the Scots. One of the best friends the trio has ever know entered our lives in 1983 when Gene Pokorny came as Principal Tubist to the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra. Gene is a rare human being, a great talent - probably the world's greatest classical tubist - who can be completely self-forgetful in pushing to the fore another talent. Gene recognized in Red a unique, amazing musical phenomenon, and brought musicians, visiting conductors, the business manager, and the gneral manager of the St. Louis Symphony, to the RELee saloon to hear him. As a result, the JAZZ INCREDIBLES and the OLD ST. LOUIS LEVEE BAND gave a series of summer pop concerts with the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra in 1987, 1988, and 1989, and were honored to be included on a cut of Gene's astounding CD, "Tuba Tracks." Another facet of the musical activities of the JAZZ INCREDIBLES is our function as the essential core of a seven-piece Dixieland jazz band, JEAN KITTRELL AND THE ST. LOUIS RIVERMEN, founded in 1984. This band concertizes throughout the USA and Canada and has produced seven cassettes. The Music of the JAZZ INCREDIBLES on this CD, selected from four of our cassettes recorded in 1990 and 1991, includes four Dixieland classics featuring the sousaphone (Bourbon Street Parade, Tiger Rag, High Society, and Basin Street Blues), three rags (Bohemia, 12th Street, and Black and White), one classical selection (Brahms' Hungarian Dance No. 5), several slow ballads - four featuring the banjo (Somewhere My Love, After the Loving, Spanish Eyes, and Sugar Blues), two featuring the sousaphone (Memories of You and Whispering), a brilliant banjo rendition of Rodgers and Hart's The Lady is a Tramp, and six vocals by me. There are no blues in terms of [Back jacket] musical structure and harmony included, even though two titles include the word "blues." High points for me are John Becker's original bluesy effect on Sugar Blues, his woderfully melodic obligato over the piano melody in Spanish Eyes, Red's trilling throughout the last chorus of High Society, and John and Red and Johannes Brahms. I'll confess I also enjoy my original words tagging I Had Someone Else Before I Had You, and added to the breaks in See Mama Every Night. John discovered that When Ragtime Rosie Ragged the Rosary was based on the 1898 Ethelbert Nevin composition, The Rosary. Listen when he plays it between my two vocal choruses on this song. (The Rosary was his very first banjo solo.) Our trio feels very lucky to have had so much fun playing and making friends throughout our music. We thank you for your interest in our work and hope you enjoy these selections. -Jean Kittrell THE JAZZ INCREDIBLES John Becker.....tenor banjo David "Red" Lehr......sousaphone Jean Kittrell......piano and vocals Recorded and mixed July 1990 and May 1991 at Music Masters, St. Louis, Missouri Engineering, Greg Trampe Producer, Jean Kittrell Photo, Richard Schaumberger Typography by John Pavlik, Type 1, Edwardsville CD Manufactured by Audio Duplication & Services, St. Louis, Missouri Original Format The type of object, such as painting, sculpture, paper, photo, and additional data Compact disc Duration Length of time involved (seconds, minutes, hours, days, class periods, etc.) 67:53:00 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

LOUIS RIVERMEN a winner. Two new members in the band - Steve Lilley on cornet and Brett Stamps on trombone - tire up the five stalwart RIVERMEN of seventeen years together, giving a keen edge of excitement to hot numbers like "Emperor Norton's Hunch" and "I Would Do Anything for You." Steve also shines as a soloist on "I Can't Get Started." Four arrangements by the drummer and valve/trombonist Don Schroeder hold an inside track with their imaginative harmonies and counterpoint: the title tune, which Don also sings two Sidney Bechet ballads - "Love Me with a Feeling" featuring clarinetist Glenn Meyer and "Si Tu Vois Ma Mere" featuring sousaphonist David "Red" Lehr and a banjo specialty for John Becker, "Nothing Could Be Finer Than to Be in Carolina in the Morning." Two gospel hymns with galloping syncopations - "Over in the Gloryland" and "Just a Little While to Stay Here" - hold their own with the marching trot of "Sweethearts on Parade" and the smooth swinging gait of "Louisiana." No RIVERMEN race would be complete without some realistic songs by Jean Kittrell to keep the runners on track - "My Handy Man Ain't Handy No More" and "Downhearted Blues." There's a neck to neck finish with the clarinet and drums battling it out, and the rest of the band joining in on "I Found a New Baby." The RIVERMEN and JEAN are betting that you'll enjoy this race. If you don't - oh, well, you didn't lose too much money, did you?
