Phineas Newborn, Jr. - Baby grandiloquent jazz! (Brandon Shred shredded this)
Baby grandiloquent jazz!
Here is a video that is a favorite of the artist AND by no less than writers, Stanley Booth, NY Times critic, Robert Palmer, and Memphis musician and friend, Tav Falco.
In each I think you'll take away not only a piece of those who're playing, but of the writers, critics, and musicians who hold these performances above all others in the vacuum created by each of their respective deaths.
I hope you will enjoy a short journey into this hemisphere, and take something away which you had not known before.
I know that during the compilation of this extensively researched labor of love, I discovered not just something about the musicians represented, not previously known, but of the writers and musicians who I have been fortunate to call friends.
Thank you for taking the time to read (what for me is a very rare intrusion) this introduction.
GUK
(from intro to Tav Falco's Video of Phineas Newborn)
Imagine yourself a prodigy, a jazz virtuoso of the 1950s. You have played with everybody from Duke Ellington to Charlie Mingus. Then POW… you are lost for twenty years. Your achievements and talents put into chemical and canvas straitjackets. Living with your mother. Treated like a miscreant. Then you begin to rise to the top again. This is one of the man’s first public performances before a public eager and waiting so long for his return.
Phineas Newborn Jr., 57, Top Jazz Pianist
Phineas Newborn Jr., a leading jazz pianist, died at his home in Memphis, Tenn., Friday. He was 57 years old.
The cause of death has not been released. Irvin Salky, Mr. Newborn's agent and friend, said X-rays six weeks ago showed a growth on one of his lungs.
His albums included ''A World of Piano,'' ''The Newborn Touch,'' ''The Great Piano of Phineas,'' and ''Piano Artistry of Phineas Newborn.''
i couldn't top the master brandonshred but i gave it a good tribute.
Although Mr. Newborn was not a celebrity, he was highly regarded by jazz aficionados, especially in the 1950's and 60's. ''In his prime, he was one of the three greatest jazz pianists of all time, right up there with Bud Powell and Art Tatum,'' said Leonard Feather, a jazz critic for Downbeat magazine and The Los Angeles Times.
His father, Phineas Newborn Sr., led a big band that played on Memphis's celebrated Beale Street in the 30's and 40's. Mr. Newborn grew up playing saxophone, trumpet and vibraphone in the band, which included his brother Calvin, who played guitar.
Besides his brother, he is survived by his mother, daughters, a son and two grandchildren.
A racial attack took him out of the playing circuit in 1974. He was admitted to the Veteran’s Hospital with a cracked jawbone, broken nose and several broken fingers. The day Phineas was discharged from the hospital he went to Ardent recording studios and recorded a Grammy nominated album, ‘Solo Piano’.The tracks included a version of ‘Out of The World’ which contained stunning left-hand virtuosity.
Stanley Booth says that ‘hearing that performance while looking at the X-ray photos of Phineas’s broken hands is enough to make you think that Little Red (Phineas Newborn), like Jerry Lee Lewis is a little more than human.

Phineas Newborn, Jr. - Web Essay
By ROBERT PALMER
Published: July 11, 1986
Phineas Newborn Jr., Sweet Basil, 88 Seventh Avenue South, below West Fourth Street (242-1785).
Born into a musical Memphis family and a pianist with his father's big band and on early B. B. King recordings while still in his teens, Phineas Newborn Jr. was in every sense a prodigy.
By the time he made his classic Atlantic, RCA and Contemporary jazz albums, in the 1950's and early 60's, that prodigious abundance of technique was getting him compared with the virtuosic Art Tatum, and dismissed by some as all fingers, no heart. That was never true, and certainly isn't now. In his maturity, Mr. Newborn is one of the masters of jazz piano, with an immediately identifiable tone and touch, great harmonic originality, and, as a kind of signature, octave runs that seem to fairly whip along the keyboard.
Shows are around 10 and 11:30 P.M. and 1 A.M. through Sunday, with a $10 music charge and $6 minimum.

William Eggleston *Just whose RED CEILING was that anyway? Paris Review
William Eggleston
*Just whose RED CEILING was that anyway?
Paris Review
William Eggleston: For Now
November 16, 2010 | by Michael Almereyda
William Eggleston, 1970. Photographer unknown.
William Eggleston's color photographs are among the most widely viewed, and widely admired, in the medium. But I wanted to survey Eggleston's unseen, unpublished work-his B-sides, bootlegs, unreleased tracks-and to that end I made five trips to Memphis in the course of a year, rummaging through roughly 35,000 digital scans archived by the Eggleston Artistic Trust. The intention was to come up with a book of images rescued from near oblivion. The resulting selection-necessarily partial, narrow, subjective-favors pictures of people, many of them the photographer's blood relatives and close friends, a few of which appear below. When I reviewed an early layout with Bill, he was pleased to be confronted with images he'd clean forgotten about, and he provided considered commentary.
§
Untitled (Marcia Hare), early 1970s.
Untitled (Marcia Hare), early 1970s.
"She used to dance onstage with a hippie band called **Insect Trust.
Their music, you could say, was too new for me. You could say I never made the mistake of listening to their music. I was studying Bach at the time. I never made a mistake when I listened to Bach."
§
Untitled (Julian Hohenberg), Algiers, Louisiana, early 1970s.

"A cotton merchant. His fortune soared in the billions. He lost it all at once. His competitors ganged up and brought him down." Hohenberg financed the first dye-transfer portfolio of Eggleston images, 14 Pictures, in 1974. "I don't think he'll ever know how important that was to me."
§
Untitled (T. C. Boring), Greenwood, Mississippi, early 1970s.

"He was a dentist. We immediately became best friends. I can't even say why. I'll think about it, and if I come up with anything, you'll be the first to know."
T. C., alone in a graffiti-scrawled room, is the solitary nude in "William Eggleston's Guide" (Museum of Modern Art, New York, 1976). The blood-red ceiling, one of Eggleston's most iconic images, was located under T. C.'s roof in Greenwood, Mississippi, though that home, Bill takes pains to insist, is not the site on view here.
§
Untitled (Vernon Richards with William Eggleston III), Memphis, Tennessee, early 1970s.
Richards was "a close friend from childhood, in Sumner, Mississippi." He appears extensively in Eggleston's epic video, Stranded in Canton, and assisted in the taking of flash-lit nightclub portraits during the same period. He's also visible, beardless, in the "Guide," gazing from within a parked car, above two bare feet, crossed at the ankles, braced on the car door.
§
Untitled, Windsor Ruins, Mississippi, early 1980s.
Untitled, Windsor Ruins, Mississippi, early 1980s.
This officially designated "art car" was painted by Tom Young, formerly Eggleston's instructor at the University of Mississippi, and was driven in a New Orleans Mardi Gras parade. "He polished it, then painted it, then polished it some more. He spent months on it. He took it very seriously." The columns are the lone surviving remnants of the Windsor Plantation, lost to fire in 1890. "That car's probably the last thing you'd expect to see at that spot."
§
Untitled (Tom Young), early 1980s.
Untitled (Tom Young), early 1980s.
Tom Young is also responsible for supplying young Eggleston with early, oracular advice, commanding him to photograph things around him, even or especially things he hated. From this, Eggleston extracted a credo, transforming hatred to love. His much-quoted remark-"I've been photographing democratically"-offers a measure of this reversal, his all-encompassing embrace and its Whitmanesque reach, whereby nearly every subject caught by his camera becomes part of an overflowing family album.
*"thanks to my A&R Man, Jim Barber for the title from this dregs of curious beauty of an essay on Old Bill. I couldn't have come up with a better title if I tried."

**"Insect Trust contained none other than Robert Palmer...NO! NYTimes, Robert Palmer (Music Critic extraordinaire--with an extraordinaire fondess for sleepy juice) on Noise Clarinet...no wonder Bill was not a fan. Although how could you remember with all the quaaludes in the mix in those loagy Stranded in Canton Days of Memphis?!"

William Eggleston is among the most celebrated and influential photographers of the postwar era; the traveling exhibition "William Eggleston: Democratic Camera" is on view at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art through January.
Michael Almereyda's films include Nadja (1994), Hamlet (2000), and William Eggleston in the Real World (2005). This text is excerpted from his afterword to William Eggleston: For Now, which gathers nearly ninety previously unknown Eggleston photographs in one volume and has just been published by Twin Palms.
