	PBS - JAZZ A Film By Ken Burns: Selected Artist Biography - Harry Edison
		Harry Edison spent his early childhood in Kentucky, where he was introduced to music by an uncle.
		Edison became an important soloist with Basie, and occasionally composed and wrote arrangements for the group.
		Edison's playing reflects the directness and full tone of his original inspiration, Louis Armstrong.

	Harry Edison: 1915-1999
		Edison developed a warm, rounded trumpet tone and an individual approach to both melodic and rhythmic phrasing.
		Edison later recalled that when he arrived in the studio, Sinatra simply told him that when he heard a hole in the music, he should fill it.
		Edison claimed that the art of accompaniment lay not so much in knowing what to play as knowing when to play, and his sympathetic ability to phrase in complete accord with a singer's breathing patterns was much in demand.

		Edison's earlier fame as a member of the Count Basie orchestra was eclipsed by his success as a Hollywood studio musician and he was an automatic choice whenever Nelson Riddle recorded.
		Edison was brought to the studio and was placed in the middle of a section of the finest trumpeters in the land.
		Edison's only comment was that the year most often given in the reference books, 1915, was wrong.

	Jazz Connections - Harry Edison / Joe Pass (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		It is "fine," however, with Joe Pass and Harry Edison accenting the singer's well-honed sense of swing.
		Edison's old bandmate Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis on tenor, Clark Terry on trumpet, Ray Brown on bass and the bomb-dropping Louis Bellson on drums helped keep things moving through the nine-tune set that began with "Fine and Mellow" (ah ha!) and ended with "Polka Dots and Moonbeams." What a night!
		Again the title, Oscar Peterson + Harry Edison + Eddie ÔCleanhead' Vinson is somewhat misleading, for while all three (+ Pass) are on this 1986 Pablo release, the emphasis really is on Vinson, whose sophisticated alto sax work — and very wacky vocalizing — always steal the show.

	Sweet Tooth: Harry 'Sweets' Edison (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Edison and Davis had common ground to spare and as such made an inspired and instantly gratifying pairing.
		Edison put out the call to his regular rhythm section of Lawson, Isaac and Johnston, and gave Jimmy Forrest, his regular tenor, the day off.
		Edison’s epigrammatic “E” annexes the most album space and is once again brimming with an ambience of elegance.

	Harry "Sweets" Edison Dies
		Edison was 83 when he died in his birthplace, Columbus, Ohio.
		Like his peers and compatriots, Benny Carter and Coleman Hawkins, Edison became a jazz musician in the early days of swing and weathered the many shifts and developments of the music without losing his relevancy or his charm as a musician.
		Edison’s ability to play “sweetly” brought him steady work, but his interest in jazz was never submerged, and during the same period in the seventies that he was Redd Foxx’s musical director for theatrical dates he also performed with tenor saxophonist Eddie “Lockjaw” Davis.

		Bio: Harry "Sweets" Edison got the most mileage out of a single note, like his former boss Count Basie.
		Edison, immediately recognizable within a note or two, long used repetition and simplicity to his advantage while always swinging.
		After a couple years in St. Louis, Edison moved to New York where he joined Lucky Millinder and then in June 1938, Count Basie, remaining with that classic orchestra until it broke up in 1950.

		Although trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison and tenor saxophonist Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis recorded several albums together in the 1970s, this CD reissue was their only Pablo date as a team.
		Edison is the nominal leader and he contributed four of the eight selections (which alternate with four veteran standards), but the competitive Lockjaw gets in his fiery licks too.
		While bassist John Heard and drummer Jimmie Smith are part of the quintet and pianist Dolo Coker is on half of the program, Count Basie himself drops by for four songs to cheer on his former sidemen.

	Oscar Peterson & Harry Edison - Oscar Peterson & Harry Edison @ Filmbug
		Sweets Edison and Oscar Peterson have a recording history that dates back to the early 50's when they were both mainstays of the Norman Granz stable - Jazz at the Philharmonic.
		While both are past peak performance-wise by this mid-70's recording date, there's no real evidence of a lack of power or virtuosity and the solos on each cut are inventive and technically interesting.
		The material is well-chosen, mostly standard ballads but both Edison and Peterson's background in blues-laden swing comes through loud and clear.

		Although trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison gets top billing on this Storyville LP, he is only on half of the selections and none of the ones that feature tenor saxophonist Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis and vocalist Richard Boone (who mostly sings his three features straight).
		Actually nothing all that essential occurs but Edison and Davis completists and fans of mainstream jazz may want to get this set.
		Although a bit overlooked at the time (especially on the East Coast), Bill Berry's L.A. Big Band was one of the finest jazz orchestras of the mid- to late '70s.

		Peterson and Edison are perfect foils for one another -- Edison's solos are pared down to his own, personal vocabulary; Peterson is the consummate technician.

		It's called Happy Days, and it takes place in a ballroom; the various episodes are about the marathon dancers and such- like.
		During the series we had Harry James, playing the numbers he was noted for with Benny Goodman.
		We work as a team, and we get rhythm sections wherever we go; here in Europe we are very fortunate to have played with some very, very fine rhythm sections.

	Jazz Connections - Harry Edison / Phil Woods (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		IF THE MJQ WERE THE "CADILLAC" OF JAZZ, AS they are dubbed by Cook and Morton in Penguin's great jazz-recordings guide, Harry Edison and Phil Woods are, respectively, the Model-T and the Thunderbird.
		Built to last with a minimum of maintenance, Edison's timeless trumpet stylings were the very definition of "classic." By the same sort of metaphorical measure, Woods' luxurious alto sound gives you a great ride, but needs new shock-absorbers from time to time.
		How the MJQ gets parked alongside these venerable Fords is easy to explain: it was in appearances with that group, and only with them, that Edison and Woods ever played together.

		While the participants may lack some of their youthful vigor, they compensate nicely with the kind of jazz “smarts” one accumulates over the years.
		Edison’s trademark Harmon-muted repeated notes still captivate and Terry’s elegant, bluesy phrases still swing.
		Sadly, Edison passed away this year but his legacy is well served by this relaxed, mainstream session.

		He had several reunions with Count Basie in the 1960s and by the '70s was often teamed with Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis; Edison also recorded an excellent duet album for Pablo with Oscar Peterson.
