	Georgie Fame & The Blue Flames
		Originally, the Blue Flames were Billy Fury's backing band and Fame joined them in the summer of 1961.
		At the end of that year Fury sacked them and they decided to see if they could "make it" on their own.
		Of all the groups playing the London clubs at this time, Fame and his band were the most jazz-influenced.

	Uppers \| Georgie Fame - Live at The Blue Note NYC, NY 10/6/03
		Fame nor would we get a treat of the likes of his full band sound on his excellent live Cd's "Name Dropping" or "Walking Wounded" (both ace live recordings from Ronnie Scott's in London) or his other upbeat sounds courtesy of Three Line whip (a band that includes Fame's son's Tristan and James).
		Fame upped the ante on the vocalese slant of the evening by adding, as he'd done in numerous spots on "Poet in New York" and throughout the evening, his own lyrics to the solos.
		Fame's showmanship, sense of humor and keen sense of historical accuracy lead to several amusing stories and anecdotes in between songs with several nods to vocalese godfathers Jon Hendricks, Eddie Jefferson and Oscar Brown Jr.(the evening was punctuated by numerous Hendricks impersonations including Fame's "Clark Terry" yelps after solos by Malock and Hazeltine).

	Georgie Fame at Pride Of Manchester
		Georgie Fame and The Blue Flames secured a residency at a London jazz club called The Flamingo where they built up a huge following, earning a contract with EMI 1963.

		Georgie Fame's music can not be labelled as either jazz nor rythm and blues - it is somewhere between the two, and his albums in the 1990's have gathered fans from all musical tastes.

	Georgie Fame - Biography and Recommendations
		Fame and his band the Blue Flames first achieved real success as a live band, releasing the superb "Rhythm and Blues At The Flamingo" in 1964 - looking back it's difficult now to imagine just how influential this release was in popularising bluebeat, ska and particularly American R&B and jazz throughout the UK.
		Fame has always been a sympathetic and intelligent accompanist; he has spent a considerable period of time over the last few years playing in Van Morrison's band but he has never stopped recording and playing as a leader in his own right.
		Fame is now an elder statesman of the British music scene - he can and does play what he likes (check out the live albums recorded at Ronnie Scott's, "Walking Wounded" and "Name Droppin'" to hear a man clearly at the peak of his powers).

	Music: The Georgie Fame Birthday Big Band
		Fame is primarily the singer on this set rather than playing keyboards; the change in the repertoire keeps this set sounding fresh and very distinct from the excellent live sets from the mid-'90s.
		Guy Barker returns on trumpet and Anthony Kerr returns on vibes and Pete King's soaring alto continues to be a fantastic compliment to Georgie's vocals on all of the Fame records of the last ten years.
		This new CD was recorded in 1998 before the aforementioned studio releases, but I think anyone hearing this one will be encouraged to seek out the others, and anyone having the other CD's will find this new one to be very distinct.

	Review \| Georgie Fame
		I keep singing it over and over as I walk the quarter mile to the mailbox in the rain, hearing Georgie's silver-bullets piano accompaniment in my head and trying to figure out a way to make its terrible simplicity work on a solo acoustic guitar.
		Georgie Fame was the first living thing to knock the Beatles out of the Top Ten, with his relentlessly swinging version of Jon Hendricks's bossa-supernova "Yeh Yeh." (Smokingly reprised on Walking Wounded.
		For once Georgie takes his hands off the keys, leaving instrumental chores to a superb quartet, in order to concentrate solely on his vocals.

		I never could make up my mind whether Georgie Fame was superbly laid back in his work, or just wasn't trying.
		Through his subsequent career Georgie has provided quality keyboard support to many artists - notably Van Morrison, but also many others - and if this collection shows anything I think it shows that his contribution to music in that role is probably greater than his role as a front man.
		And I'm sure even Georgie would not take the credit for inventing what is the true story of Bonnie and Clyde on which the film is based.

		After that, I acquired more Georgie Fame's 60s recordings, including the spectacular pop nugget "Yeh Yeh." This compilation provides a fantastic sampling of, arguably, Fame's most seminal recordings, and is worth the price of admission for the 2 tracks I mentioned earlier.
		Georgie Fame's musical roots were in jazz and blues and that was what really interested him.
		As the hits dried up, Georgie returned to the jazz and blues music that he loved but as this collection shows, that music was always an important influence in his pop hits.

		The Bottom Line Georgie Fame was born Clive Powell on 26 June 1943 in Leigh, Lancashire, England near Manchester.
		Jimmy was one of the all-time greatest soul-jazz organists whose biggest hit was his version of a “Ray Charles” written “I Got A Woman” that peaked at #5 on the R&B chart and at #20 on the pop chart in the US for him in 1962.
		From 1974 to 1989 Georgie released 15 new singles and 12 new albums in different countries but most in the UK and all 27 of these records failed to make any of the charts.

		Parnes changed his name to Georgie Fame and set up him up with Billy Fury’s backing band, the Blue Flames.

		At this time Georgie Fame was already pianist with the 'Blue Flames', the group that backed Billy Fury.
		Georgie Fame had a dozen UK hits including three #1s, one of which was the 'Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde' a record that also sold well in the USA.
		However by this time Georgie had started to steer his music away from its RandB roots towards jazzier middle-of-the-road material that would sustain his popularity on the cabaret circuit for many years.

		Personnel: Georgie Fame (vocals); Bob Malach (saxophone); David Hazeltine (piano); Peter Washington (bass); Louis Hayes (drums).
		Though Georgie Fame is known as much for his organ playing as for his singing, he eschews the former entirely on POET IN NEW YORK, choosing instead to vocalize exclusively.
		Fame and company tackle some well-known tunes, including the swing anthem "Symphony Sid" and the evergreen ballad "Lush Life," but Fame contributes a couple of original compositions as well and they blend right in with their esteemed companions.

		How Long Has This Been Going On, recorded with Georgie Fame at Ronnie Scott 's club, was a comfortable jazz album which revisited the artist's roots.
		He continued in this vein with Fame, Ben Sidran and one of his idols, Mose Allison, recording a tribute album to the latter in 1996.
		Although the themes, chords and moods are often similar, taken as a whole, Morrison's prolific body of work is one the most necessary, spiritually uplifting, complete and important collections in music, and it is still steadily growing.
