	George Brunies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		George Clarence Brunies was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on February 6, 1902 into a very musical family.
		Brunies often showed off his unusual technical abilities and bizarre sense of humor at the same time; for example he would lie on the floor and invite the largest person in the audience to sit on his chest while he played trombone.
		On the advice of a numerologist, he changed his name to Georg Brunis in the 1960s in the belief that this would increase his good luck.

	George Brunies (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		George Brunies aka Georg Brunis (1902 - 1974) was a well known early jazz trombonist.
		Brunies trombone style was influential to the young Chicago players, and his records were much copied.
		In this era Brunies was never bested at his challenge to play anything any other trombonist could play as well or better.

	Paul Mares - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		About 1919 cornetist Abbie Brunies was offered a job playing in Chicago, and passed the offer on to Mares.
		(Brunies thought his New Orleans position of doubling driving a taxi-cab and playing music was more secure than prospects in Chicago.)
		Mares established himself as a respected band leader over a group of wild and strong willed musicians, as The New Orleans Rhythm Kings (N.O.R.K.) became one of the best regarded bands in Chicago in the early 1920s.

		While most of these romping and stomping Brunies were either siblings or the musical parents that created them, this Albert Brunies was a cousin, who came to be known as "Little" Abbie Brunies in order to know who was who, at least off the bandstand.
		Most famous among musicians bearing the surname of Brunies was trombonist and bandleader George Brunies, who wound up clipping a couple of letters of his name to become Georg Brunis, a fate that might have befell "Little Abbey" Brunies if he hadn't been so young and short.

	Friars Society Orchestra / New Orleans Rhythm Kings
		Mares, Brunies, and Roppolo were the core—and the stars—of the band that would gain fame as the New Orleans Rhythm Kings, although the band would go through several changes of personnel.
		George Brunies’ family was of German and Belgian stock; the entire family was musical, and brothers Henry, Merritt, Richard, and Albert (Abbie) were all successful musicians and composers.
		Brunies remembers that the tune evolved something like this: “… we were playing the ‘Weary Blues’ one night, so all of a sudden Rapp takes a chorus, just playing to himself, man. He didn’t care nothing about the people, he’s high.

		The band that kept everybody jumping was the Halfway House Orchestra, led by cornetist Albert "Abbie" Brunies and including his brother George, a trombonist, and clarinetists Charlie Cordilla and Leon Roppolo, who also played saxophone.
		Like the great Buddy Bolden, he spent the last years of his life in a hospital for the mentally ill. The Halfway House is visible from his grave.
		My Uncle Abbie had the Halfway House jumping many nights when he had his band, Abbie Brunies and the Halfway House Orchestra.

		It was sold in a small diner on Benachi Avenue for many years, and quickly became a local favorite.
		Martha Ann Ebberman, a Biloxi native and frequent customer, bought the diner and the trademark recipe from the Brunies in 1987.

	Jazz Information
		Abbie is the source for the definite statement that it's not Rappolo on any of the Halfway House Columbias...
		I might say, though, since I have seen the opinion expressed that part of the Owls' Columbia recordings were by Red Nichols outfit, that all were by a strictly local aggregation, and that all were waxed in New Orleans or Atlanta.
		Abbie Brunies continues to lead his little band at the Vanity Club, playing the sane kind of pretty, reptitive trumpet as of yore, with a poor backing.

		Trumpeter Sharkey Bonano leads a group of New Orleans musicians (Jack Delaney [tb] Bujie Centobie [cl] Stanley Mendelson [p] Deacon Loyacano [b] Abbie Brunies [d]) in a program of good ol' good ones that swing non-stop: there isn't a slow one in the batch.
		Bonano has a rich, bell-like tone that is at the fore on the lead-ins/out and theme statements, though he doesn't solo and delegates that to the others.
		Every time Mendelson solos, drummer Brunies goes to his snare rims with his sticks for a ricky-ticky accompaniment, about as Dixielandish as you can get.

		I just finished transcribing George Brunies 1939 solo on At The Jazz Band Ball (w/ Muggsy Spanier), and I found that it was invaluable to tune my horn to the soloist first and then slow down the tune to a playable tempo.

		Lewis's clarinet playing never evolved beyond his style of 1919 which in later years would sound increasingly corny, but Lewis certainly knew what good clarinet playing sounded like, for he hired musicians like Benny Goodman, Jimmy Dorsey, and (the wonderful and, unfortunately, largely forgotten) Don Murray to play clarinet in his band.
		For years his band also included jazz greats Muggsy Spanier on trumpet and George Brunis on trombone.
		Ted Lewis's band was second only to the Paul Whiteman in popularity during the 1920s, and arguably played more real jazz with less pretension than Whiteman, especially in his recordings of the late 1920s.
