Celebrating 120 years of Bix!

>Finally Beiderbecke came out with a silver cornet. He put it to his lips and blew a phrase. The sound came out like a girl saying 'yes'.

64 years later, Ed Bland's "The Cry Of Jazz" is still controversial, and still belongs in every jazz education curriculum.

Music by Sun Ra, John Gilmore, and Julian Priester

Joya Sherrill - Little Bo Peep

Sherrill began with Duke Ellington in July 1942 when she was seventeen. After a period at Wilberforce University, she rejoined in 1944 and remained with Ellington until 1946 when she left to marry Richard Guilmenot. Ellington considered her one of his favorite singers.
