	Solid! -- Boyd Raeburn
		Though not well remembered today bandleader Boyd Raeburn blazed trails in progressive jazz that took his music in directions beyond even those explored by such adventurous types as Stan Kenton and Tom Talbert.
		Raeburn began his career as a bandleader in the early 1930s, leading a college orchestra at the University of Chicago.
		Raeburn reorganized in 1945 and took his group a step further, relying on composer and arranger George Handy, who wrote extremely complex and dissident charts.

		Boyd had almost no library at that point, using mainly Basie stock arrangements (is that bad?), so this hand-copied arrangement was handled with great care.
		The Boyd Raeburn band wasn’t well known at that time but Vern and Paul felt the band played good stuff and they were able to do new things and experiment.
		While the Raeburn band was on the road in August 1944, a fire at Palisades Amusement Park, New Jersey, consumed the most of the library of arrangements.

	Boyd Raeburn \| The Mix
		Boyd Raeburn was never much of a soloist, but his short-lived big bands in the mid-'40s featured some of the most advanced arrangements of the time, particularly those of George Handy.
		Raeburn actually started out leading commercial orchestras in the 1930s, and it was not until 1944 that his music became relevant to jazz.
		Even though it was a constant struggle to keep the orchestra together, Raeburn's band actually grew in size during 1946, with reed players doubling on woodwinds and the addition of French horns and a harp.

		Raeburn started out in the 30's with a society band, eventually moved in the direction of swing, and in 1944 established one of the most innovative of the modern bands.
		Many of the originals played by the Raeburn band incorporated the leader's first name in the title, usually as a pun.
		Included in the Dean program were "Early Boyd," "Boyd's Nest," and "Here Come the Boyds." It was a gas to hear these arrangements live, a rarity indeed.

		Boyd was basically a 'society' orchestra leader who became addicted to Jazz.

	Dobbin's Den - March 27, 1997 - George Handy
		He was introduced to Boyd Raeburn in late 1943 and joined his band the following spring at the Lincoln Hotel.
		The band that Boyd Raeburn led at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco in August 1946 was distinguished by any jazz standards.
		Around the time Handy rejoined Boyd Raeburn (1946), the band had switched from the Guild label to Jewel, a company owned by Ben Pollack, a drummer who led jazz-oriented dance bands in the 20s and early 30s, bands that included people like Benny Goodman, Harry James, Glenn Miller and Jack Teagarden.

		By 1945, Raeburn's music became much more radical with George Handy's charts (which were sometimes influenced by modern classical music) dominating the repertoire.
		Vocalists David Allyn and Ginnie Powell (Raeburn's wife) cheerfully sang while all types of dissonant events occurred behind them.
		His pleasant Columbia records of 1956-1957 are of little interest, but Boyd Raeburn's earlier bands are represented on sessions for Musicraft and Savoy, radio transcriptions put out by Circle, and broadcasts released by IAJRC and Hep.

		Thirty years after his work with the Raeburn band, Ragon claimed credit for moving Raeburn’s sound in a modern direction.
		Paul Villepigue, however, in a long letter he penned shortly after arrival in Chicago, sheds new light on these and other relationships, as well as the difficulty of cobbling together a living.

		The talk, which Raeburn first gave without incident at a 2001 symposium connected to the North Carolina Jazz Festival, prompted a debate over academic freedom when the New York-based Louis Armstrong Education Foundation threatened to pull its annual funding of the New Orleans event due to perceived slights against Armstrong's reputation.
		She adds that she believes that Raeburn covered a difficult topic "beautifully." FQFI and the Armstrong Foundation have not yet met over the issue, she says.
		The room where Raeburn gave the Satchmo talk holds 150 people; to date, few others have actually heard the lecture that sparked the debate.

		If you are a new Raeburn listener, this is a good place to start, even if 8 of the tracks here don't show the band at its best.
		Boyd Raeburn's band was one of the most innovative of its time, one in which swing, bebop and symphonic music were combined in a totally unique way.
		My only caveats are that tracks 13 and 16 are reversed ('Hip Boyd's' is actually 'Duck Waddle' and vice versa) and that the last four tracks are actually Johnny Richards recordings (Raeburn's last arranger) featuring Boyd's male vocalist, but since there are 26 tracks, that isn't so bad.

		One night the Raeburn band was performing in Shelbourne, New Hampshire, and a new lead trumpeter and a drummer had just joined the band.
		The Raeburn band was supported by a sextet of Canadian musicians led by a very young trumpeter, and when Killian heard that player solo he told Raeburn, "You gotta get this kid!" Raeburn did, and thus it was that Maynard Ferguson joined his first American orchestra.
		Initially Mel Zelnick sets the tempo (Bert's mate in Boyd Raeburn's 1948 ensemble), then Art Mardigan handles the sticks (who swung Woody Herman's Third Herd for years), and then we seque to Joe Morello-and Eddie Bert recalls this as Joe Morello's very first studio date.

	The History of Jazz Music. Boyd Raeburn: biography, discography, review, links (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		One of the most adventurous jazz bands of the bebop era was led by white Chicago-educated saxophonist Boyd Raeburn (1913), and featured mostly white bop players.
		Initially, driven by Ed Finckel's compositions, such as March Of The Boyds (june 1944) and Boyd Meets Stravinsky (february 1946), the orchestra played a progressive form of swing.
		But the main composer in the golden years from 1944 till 1946 was pianist George Handy, who arranged frequently dissonant scores and penned Tonsillectomy (october 1945), Yerxa (october 1945) and Dalvatore Sally (february 1946), the first movement of a four-movement Jazz Symphony.

		Because of his ability to read music, he was in heavy demand in the early and mid 1940s, working with such musicians as Boyd Raeburn, Lucky Thompson, Slim Gaillard, Wardell Gray, Barney Kessel, and in his best work, with Charlie Parker on the now famous Dial sessions.
		At least partially due to his association with Dodo, Buddy DeFranco went on to become the master of the bop clarinet.
		In early 1946 after a stint with Boyd Raeburn, Dodo and tenor player Lucky Thompson left Raeburn in Los Angeles and formed their own combo, recording several sides on the Downbeat label.

		The frequency response is very good, as good as it got for pre-HiFi monaural, and remastering of these recordings onto CD is welcome despite the previously-stated flaws in the source material.
		The highlights on this CD come from guest appearances - first, Dizzy Gillespie plays a blistering trumpet solo on Raeburn's version of "Night in Tunisia" (track 3), and on track 16 Mel Torme guests with the Mel-Tones on a manic version of "That's Where I Came In".
		The undeniable historic value of Raeburn's recordings was as an inspiration to other bands of the period - Stan Kenton, Woody Herman, Ray McKinley (while Eddie Sauter was doing arrangements for him), and a young Henry Mancini who used to see Raeburn's band every chance he could.
