.. Hoagy Carmichael's Music Shop |
| | Description: | "The story of The Stark Reality??s Discovers The Hoagy Carmichael??s Music Shop begins in Boston the late 1960s,
with a wild jazz ?? as psychedelic as they were modal, as funky as they were swinging - band based in Boston
landing a deal with Ahmad Jamal??s nascent AJP imprint after the legendary jazz pianist
heard their demo recordings.
They had been tasked by the great American songsmith Hoagy Carmichael??s son, Hoagy Bix Carmichael, to
create interpretations of the elder Carmichael??s children songs for a Mr. Rogers-themed show that the younger
Carmichael was producing for local PBS affiliate WGBH.
The quartet - Monty Stark on vibes, Phil Morrison on bass, Vinnie Johnson on drums and a very young John
Abercrombie on fuzz guitar ?? recorded an album that flopped upon its initial release and went on to become one
of ?? as Mojo Magazine noted - ??the most prized 'funk?? artifacts of all time... a project that allies
Hendrix-stoned guitars, heavily-fuzzed vibraphone and Bitches Brew rhythms??
For RSD Black Friday, Now-Again Records, who has kept the Stark Reality??s music in print since 2002, presents
the definitive reissue of The Stark Reality??s Discovers The Hoagy Carmichael??s Music Shop. Lacquered by Bernie
Grundman in an all-analog transfer directly from the master tapes maintained by the Stark Reality??s photographer
Jim Bourne, it??s presented in a replica gatefold sleeve, and contains an extensive, oversized page booklet
with rare photos, liner notes and annotation." - .. CARMICHAEL'S MUSIC SHOP / BLF 22The story of The Stark Reality's Discovers The Hoagy Carmichael Music Shop begins with Hoagy Carmichael's son, Hoagy Bix Carmichael. Nearing 30 and working on Wall Street, Bix wanted to do something more worthwhile. He relocated to Boston and started working at WGBH, one of the country's most innovated PBS stations. There, he meet Monty Stark, WGBH's resident "music man." When Bix's set out to create an all new WGBH program, Hoagy Carmichael's Music Shop, a children's show revolving around his father's 1958 children's album Hoagy Carmichael's Havin' A Party, Stark was tapped to do the music. The resulting reimagination of Hoagy Carmichael's children's recording was used for the show, and issued on jazz pianist Ahmad Jamal's AJP label. The recording features Monty Stark on vibes, saxophonist Carl Atkins, Phil Morrison on bass, Vinnie Johnson on drums and John Abercrombie on guitar.
