Anita O'Day - Sweet Georgia Brown & Tea for Two at the 1958 Newport Jazz Festival.
youtube
One of the most underrated Jazz vocalist of her time. Perhaps it might've had something to do with her being married to an African American musician and that they both used illegal drugs.

Remembering jazz singer Anita O’Day on what would have been her 103rd birthday - October 18, 1919. The lady had a lot of style. Here she is at the 1958 Newport Jazz Festival, cool as a scoop of vanilla ice cream on that hot summer afternoon, giving the people “Sweet Georgia Brown” and “Tea for Two.” Wasn’t she great?

本日のおはジャズ「Live At Mingos」Anita O'day '76
これもマンハッタンの望月マスターから昨日誕プレで頂いたレコード。有難うございます！
普通にNY録音かと思って聴いてましたが、裏ジャケをよく読むと、六本木のお店での日本人エンジニアによる録音！僕ごときが言うのも生意気ですが、いやぁ、ジャズをよく分かってらっしゃる。現在、レコーディングやライブの現場で、よくロックやクラブ系みたいな音作りされてガッカリする事が多いのですが、70年代は日本にもこんな素敵な音作りのプロがいらっしゃったんだなぁ…。
キングなどの大手だけでなく、オーディオメーカーのこのトリオや、今は車載カメラとかしか作ってないユピテルがアトラスというレーベル持ってて、日本でもジャズアルバムを沢山作ってました。当時はフュージョン・ブームでしたが、これを聴いてもストレートなジャズを録音する技術力は相当高いし、アメリカのミュージシャンがこぞって日本制作のレコードを沢山リリースしていたのには納得が行きます。良い時代だ…
アニタに���しては、「真夏の夜のジャズ」で、上手いけど声張り上げ系の高速スキャットってイメージ(改めてYouTubeで聴くと全然そんな事なかった笑)であまり好みではなかったのですが、この録音当時は今の僕とほぼ同い年で、声が若干しわがれてて、めっちゃ脱力してて、とても良いのです。あぁ、ブルースだなぁと。
なんか歳取るのも良いなぁと思いました。スープにこだわり過ぎて、あれこれごちゃごちゃして結局胃もたれしかしない何とか系ラーメンより、シンプルに素材だけで美味しいと思える湯豆腐が好きになったのと同様に、このアルバムが楽しめます。
こういうボーカルものを聴くと、ついついバックは何やってるのか…と「伴奏者」として分析的に聴いてしまうところがあるのですが、このアルバムはリラックスして、アニタの歌をぼーっと聴けます。なんか上手さをひけらかすより、こうやって聴き手をリラックスさせるのが、本当の上手さなのかな…と思い始めました。いや！まだオレはとんがっていたいんだけど（笑）

SOUNDIES: A MUSICAL HISTORY WITH MICHAEL FEINSTEIN
Chris Lamson’s SOUNDIES: A MUSICAL HISTORY WITH MICHAEL FEINSTEIN (2007) is very obviously a PBS documentary, even though I recorded it from TCM as part of their tribute to Soundies a few months back. Feinstein’s narration is shot in a bare-bones set and has pauses for pledge breaks built in along with teasers before each break that promise more than the next segment will deliver. Fortunately, there are also some good talking heads, including Wynton Marsalis, Leonard Maltin and Soundies performers like Kay Starr and Jackie Parton. And it has generous clips from the early musical shorts shown in video juke boxes during the 1940s. It’s hard to quibble with performances by Fats Waller, Louis Armstrong, Dorothy Dandridge, Duke Ellington, Francis Faye, Nat King Cole and Anita O’Day. TCM also showed half-hour compilations of restored Soundies (you can find more on YouTube and the web site for Susan Delson, author of SOUNDIES AND THE CHANGING IMAGE OF BLACK AMERICANS ON SCREEN: ONE DIME AT A TIME, link above). Now, when do we get a Scopitone tribute?
