WRFG’s Route 66 celebrates a time when blues, jazz, and R&B were on the same
page and, often, in the same song. Our primary focus is on the music of the
Jump Blues Era of the 1940s which blended into the early Rock & Roll & R&B Era
of the 1950s, and follow on how those styles and artists have evolved over
the years. We also bring you jazz from the era along with the occasional page
from the Great American Songbook.

Many thanks to the Blues Professor for taking the wheel last Sunday.

We have two featured artists today:

Songbird Helen Humes was born in Louisville, Kentucky, on June 23, 1913 and
was the only child of Emma and John Henry Humes. Her father was one of the
first black attorneys in Louisville. Her mother was a school teacher.

Humes made her first records in 1927. She was 14 and had just won a talent
contest. But she did not hit the road, instead staying in Louisville to finish school,
worked in a bank, and then for her father.

But, in the 1930s, singing won out and she eventually ended up in New York,
where she became the featured singer with the Count Basie Orchestra.

Humes recorded her final album in 1980.

Songwriter Cole Porter was born into a wealthy family in Peru, Indiana,
on June 9, 1891. Classically trained, he was drawn to musical theatre.

After a slow start, he began to achieve success in the 1920s,
and by the 1930s he was one of the major songwriters for the Broadway
musical stage. Unlike many successful Broadway composers, Porter
wrote the lyrics as well as the music for his songs.

Today, we celebrate the 115th anniversary of T-Bone Walker’s birth.
Aaron Thibeaux Walker was born just west of the Louisiana state line
in Lindon, Texas on May 28, 1910. Walker came from a musical family
and got his start as a professional musician in Dallas where,
as a teenager, he played with Blind Lemon Jefferson.
Walker was a pioneer and innovator of the jump blues,
West Coast blues, and electric blues sounds.

In 2018 Rolling Stone magazine ranked him number 67 on its list of
“The 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time”

WRFG’s Route 66 celebrates a time when blues, jazz, and R&B blended together, often
in the same song. Our primary focus is on the music of the Jump Blues Era of the 1940s which blended into the early part of the Rock & Roll & R&B Era of the 1950s
and on how those styles and artists have evolved over the years. We also bring you
jazz from the era along with the occasional page from the Great American Songbook.

Big Joe Turner is our featured artist. Born Joseph Vernon Turner Jr. in Kansas City, Missouri on May 18, 1911, Big Joe Turner was the consummate blues shouter.
According to songwriter Doc Pomus, “rock and roll would have never happened
without him.” Although his career ran from the 1920s to the 1980s, Turner is
best known for his rock and roll recordings in the 1950s, particularly
“Shake, Rattle and Roll.”

Today we feature the music of two artists named Mabel.

Jazz, R&B, and gospel singer Mabel Scott was born in Richmond, Virginia, on April 30, 1915. A mainstay of the west coast jazz scene, Scott’s recordings of “Elevator Boogie” and “Boogie Woogie Santa Claus” were national R&B hits in 1948. In 1999, Scott was honored with the Pioneer Award by the Rhythm and Blues Foundation.

Mabel Louise Smith – know professionally as Big Maybelle – was born in Jackson, Tennessee on May 1, 1924. During the 1940s and early 1950s, Smith toured and recorded with the International Sweethearts of Rhythm, the first racially-integrated all-female band in the U.S. Smith went solo as “Big Maybelle” in 1952 and scored a number of R&B hits. She is best remembers for “Candy,” which was released in 1956.

Today, we celebrate two true American musical greats, both with late April birthdays.
Born in Newport News, Virginia, on April 27, 1917, Ella Jane Fitzgerald was a
jazz singer, sometimes referred to as the “First Lady of Song”, “Queen of Jazz”,
and “Lady Ella”. She was noted for her purity of tone, impeccable diction,
phrasing, timing, intonation, and a “horn-like” improvisational ability,
particularly in her scat singing.

Our featured artist is one of the original Texas guitar slingers, Clarence
“Gatemouth” Brown. Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown born in Vinton, Louisiana
on April 18, 1924 and raised near Orange, Texas, his dad taught him several
instruments including the fiddle by the time he was five. He was playing guitar
by age 10 and started playing drums in swing bands while still in high school.

His career really took off in 1947. Brown was at a T-Bone Walker concert in
Houston, Texas, when Walker became ill and left the stage. Brown picked up
Walker’s guitar and quickly wrote and played a song that brought the house
down called “The Gatemouth Boogie.”
