Also included is the man who could - and did - play everything, concert virtuoso Stan Freeman. There are more than a few unknown jazzers as well, like Buddy Weed, Max Miller, Eddie Heywood, and Bill Clifton. They ranged from the jazzers like Wilson, Art Tatum, Errol Garner, and Ahmad Jamal (whose album was released as a 12" LP) to stride cats like Ralph Sutton and Joe Sullivan - who plays Fats Waller here - to swingers like Earl "Fatha" Hines, Joe Bushkin (of Tommy Dorsey fame), and Jess Stacy. The interesting comment here is that many of these pianists had little or nothing in common with one another.
#10 MAGICAL MOODS OF MUSIC VINYL SERIES#
The series was wildly successful as a whole, and most homes had at least a few of these sides and some had many or all. Some would cut the modes later and have Avakian splice them or, in the case of Teddy Wilson, he would play it straight through, and if he felt he flubbed anything, would re-record a tune and have Avakian work the tape magic. Most pianists preset their sequences and prepared introductions of the key of the preceding tune that modulated into the key of the next one. The sides were cut - usually - with no spirals (spaces) between tunes, giving the side a longer feel than its 17 minutes because the music was continuous. The Piano Moods series linked 20 albums of the same general type, all of them produced and sequenced by George Avakian, who had created the jazz and pop catalog on LP for Columbia beginning in 1948 - though they were originally released 33 rpm 10" discs to keep the folks with all those 10" 78 rpm discs happy when it came to storage. The 12" LP had been launched a scant two years before and few titles were available. Born out an impromptu marketing plan by a small Columbia Records staff in 1950, the Piano Moods series was hatched from the marketing discovery that there were more pianos than phonographs (that's record players for all you kids who don't remember vinyl LPs) in the homes of postwar America.
