Nellie Melba joined with J. C. Williamsons to bring a first class opera company to Australia in 1911. Anafesto Rossi, here photographed in Sydney by the photographer May Moore, sang opposite Melba herself and John McCormack. Only companies like the Metropolitan or the Royal Opera can afford a star tenor and soprano together in a performance today.

The great jazz baritone saxophonist Hamiet Bluiett performing live at the New Haven Jazz Festival, August 22, 2009.
I remember seeing Bluiett back in the 70s as part of the NYC Soho "Loft Scene" ... at the time Soho was pre-chic, an area replete with run down warehouses and urban decay ... it was a time when many well known musicians were abandoning the straight ahead jazz scene for more lucrative fusion ventures ... a time when musicians like Miles Davis was heading what looked more like a rock band ... but cats like Bluiett carried on the tradition for those of us who appreciated the real deal in jazz. I'm forever indebted to Hamiet and others like David Murray and Oliver Lake for their creativity and devotion to the roots.

1600 Pennsylvania Avenue (musical) - 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is a 1976 musical with music by Leonard Bernstein and book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner. It is considered to be a legendary Broadway flop, running only seven performances. It was Bernstein's last original score for Broadway.
The musical opened on May 4, 1976, at the Mark Hellinger Theatre and closed on May 8, 1976, after 7 performances and 13 previews. It was co-directed and co-choreographed by Gilbert Moses and George Faison.
The musical examined the establishment of the White House and its occupants from 1800 to 1900. Primarily focusing on race relations, the story depicted (among other incidents) Thomas Jefferson's then-alleged affair with a black slave, James Monroe's refusal to halt slavery in Washington, the aftermath of the American Civil War and Andrew Johnson's impeachment. Throughout the show, the leading actors performed multiple roles: Ken Howard played all the presidents, Patricia Routledge all the First Ladies, and Gilbert Price and Emily Yancy played the White House servants, Lud and Seena. Future Broadway stars Reid Shelton, Walter Charles, Beth Fowler and Richard Muenz appeared in ensemble roles, as did the young African American baritone Bruce Hubbard.
The show was originally intended to be performed as a play-within-a-play, with the show's actors stepping out of character to comment on the plot and debate race relations from a modern standpoint. But this concept was almost entirely removed during the show's out-of-town tryouts in Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. The musical's original director, Frank Corsaro, choreographer, Donald McKayle, and set and costume designer, Tony Walton, left the production during these tryouts.
By the time the show opened on Broadway, little of the metatheatrical concept remained, aside from certain scenic and costume elements and a few musical references (most notably, the opening number "Rehearse!").
Discouraged by the critical and public response to the work and angry that during the tryouts much of his music had been condensed and edited without his consent, Bernstein refused to allow a cast recording of the musical.
Patricia Routledge - Dame Katherine Patricia Routledge (17 February 1929 – 3 October 2025) was an English actress and singer. She was best known for her role as Hyacinth Bucket in the BBC One comedy series Keeping Up Appearances (1990–1995), for which she was twice nominated for the BAFTA TV Award for Best Light Entertainment Performance. Routledge made her professional stage debut at the Liverpool Playhouse in 1952, and her West End debut in 1959. She made her Broadway debut in 1966, and won the 1968 Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical for her role in Darling of the Day. She won the 1988 Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Musical for Candide at The Old Vic. Her film appearances include To Sir, with Love (1967) and Don't Raise the Bridge, Lower the River (1968). Routledge came to prominence during the 1980s in television monologues written by Alan Bennett and Victoria Wood, appearing in Bennett's A Woman of No Importance (1982) and as Kitty in Victoria Wood: As Seen on TV (1985–1986), and being nominated for the BAFTA TV Award for Best Actress for Bennett's Talking Heads: A Lady of Letters (1988). She also starred as Hetty Wainthropp in the television series Hetty Wainthropp Investigates (1990, 1996–1998). Routledge was made a Dame (DBE) for her services to entertainment and charity in 2017.
Gilbert Price (September 10, 1942 – January 2, 1991) was an American operatic baritone and actor. Price was a protégé of Langston Hughes. He was a life member of New York's famed Actors Studio. Price first gained notice in 1964, for his performances in Hughes' Off-Broadway production of Jerico-Jim Crow. For his work, Price received a Theatre World Award.
George Faison - George W. Faison (born December 21, 1945) is an American dancer, choreographer, teacher, and theater producer, and winner of a 1975 Tony, a Drama Desk Award, and a 1991 nominee for the Emmy Award for choreography. He was a featured dancer with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, founder of the George Faison Universal Dance Experience, and co-founder/producing artistic director of the Faison Firehouse Theater.
Factors that may increase value:
Multiple Signatures: This Playbill is signed by three notable individuals: Patricia Routledge, Ken Howard, and George Faison.
Show's Status: As a legendary Broadway flop with a very short run of only seven performances, original memorabilia from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue can be rare.
Specific Signees: Patricia Routledge is a well-known actress, particularly for her work on British television, which can add to the appeal for collectors beyond Broadway enthusiasts.
George Faison is a significant figure in theatre history as the first Black person to win a Tony for choreography.

These images are of my new Lanikai Baritone Ukulele CP2 got me for Fathers Day. It's a little late as it was a special order and was delayed. The new axe is made out of Koa wood from Hawaii, has Mother Of Pearl inlays in the fret board, is fully wired with a built in tuner and full tonal control. In addition, it has a USB port so I can plug it directly into Garage Band or Final Cut in my Mac computers, which could be great fun and a new area to be creative and have fun.
Having played guitar off and on for most of my life, this is not a new activity for me. However, I haven't played much in recent years and CP2 decided it was time for me to get my eyes off of my iMac so much and do something else for self entertainment. What a great call he made as I'm have a terrific time with it. The quality is wonderful and it has a wonderful tone - both acoustically or wired.
Thank you CP2...
Stolen Moments Laurence Jones
I first became aware of Laurence Jones because I kept seeing him at jazz gigs I attended. We began a conversation one Friday afternoon at what was then known as Rush Hour Blues, the commuter jazz sessions held every Friday at Symphony Hall in Birmingham. I recall asking him if he was a musician because whenever I'd seen him at gigs he seemed to be friendly with a number of them. It was then that I learned that by profession he's an archaeologist, currently freelance, and that he has a real passion for music and for jazz especially. He is an occasional reviewer of recorded jazz.
My portrait of Laurence was shot in Edmund Street in Birmingham on an overcast day in December 2016 outside the Birmingham School of Art. For those interested in the technical stuff it was shot using my Nikon D750 and 70-200 f2.8 Nikkor lens wide open at 80 mm.
Over to Laurence himself.
"Growing up there wasn’t much jazz or even rock to be heard in the house of my parents. My folks were into classical, folk or easy listening. The only two records in their collection, that had a jazz flavour, were by Edmundo Ros and Frank Sinatra. The first music that grabbed my attention as a child was glam rock (T Rex, Roxy Music and Bowie were big) and then some of the heavier rock sounds of Zeppelin.
All things changed when punk happened, while I was still in school, and it was almost like a Stalinist year zero. For a while if it wasn’t ‘punk’ it wasn’t worth a ****! Many of my few records were literally thrown out of the window and in came the Pistols and the first wave of punk, later followed by Joy Division and what became known as post-punk.
It wasn’t until much later, as I tired of what had become stale, that my tastes widened and I began exploring other genres, looking for something new to me. By chance I heard some of the modern jazz Peter Clayton played on Radio 3 and I was really drawn to the feel of it. Then one day I passed a ramshackle little record shop, called The Diskery in Birmingham, selling second-hand jazz records. I poked my head around the door and the jazz habit kicked in from that day. A kaleidoscope of new and exciting music all seemed to be filed under jazz.
As an archaeologist one can spend a lot of time sifting through the more prosaic stuff, when suddenly something unexpected leaps out of nowhere. I had the same feeling when I first heard these tracks"
Take Five.
Laurence recommends the following Five-A-Day.
‘Sack O’ Woe’- Cannonball Adderley Quintet. The first jazz tune I really listened to. This irresistibly groovy soul jazz number appeared on a compilation (it was originally on ‘At the Lighthouse’, 1961) which I bought from the irrepressible Jimmy at The Diskery. It was recommended to me when I wandered in and confessed I didn’t know anything about jazz, but wanted to know where to start!
‘Shakara (Oloje)’ - Fela Ransome Kuti and the Africa ’70 from Lady/ Shakara (1972). This is my favourite Fela track (and there’s no shortage of tunes to choose from) all the trademark afrobeat ingredients are here: slow build, insistent hypnotic guitar, heavy-weight baritone sax, call and response chorus. The irresistible groove builds with an incisive horn section sparring with Fela’s stabbing keyboards and the whole thing is underpinned by the Tony Allen’s Yoruba-influenced polyrhythmic drumming.
‘Las Cuevas De Mario’ - Art Pepper from Smack Up (1960). Brilliantly simple bass and piano riff rolls along before Pepper’s sublime alto enters and carries the tune heavenwards.
‘Right Off’ - Miles Davis from A Tribute to Jack Johnson (1971) Herbie Hancock and John McLaughlin help Miles conjure up a beautifully foreboding soundtrack.
‘Blue Moon’- Ahmad Jamal from Blue Moon (2012). Just a wonderfully propulsive and life-affirming tune, played by the then 82-year old Jamal, which explodes with vitality.

This is third in the mini-series that began here.
This is Eli. He's a jazz studies major at Wayne State University and a baritone saxophone player.
He is also a "real gem of a person" according to a certain inside source who may or may not also appear somewhere in this series.
( Psst. ↓ ↓ ↓ )
When I asked this certain particular person for a little biographical information on Eli, I expected a one or two sentence summation.
Instead I got back a couple of paragraphs about how artistic, intelligent, engaging, interested in edgy foreign films, and sarcastically humorous this young man is. The email made me smile a little to myself.
Its nice to see how people talk about people they are genuinely enamored with.
Have a good Tuesday, everyone.

The Oleanders — Here are "the boys from Wilberforce" who have been singing together since their student days at the southern university. They began with Negro spirituals. Today they interpret all types of harmony well, whether the song be based on the ballads the colored folks sing in the fields or a popular ditty hot from Hollywood. On Thursdays from 3:00 to 3:15 P.M., EST, the Oleanders sing over the CBS coast-to-coast network (they're heard at various other times too) and the mail bag indicates a steady rise in their popularity. Left to right they are: Benjamin Wailes (first tenor), Ira Williams (baritone), George H. Hall (bass) and Edward G. Jackson (second tenor) seated.
November 9, 1935
I heard Ely singing in a bass-baritone voice outside the thrift shop on Haight Street last Friday in San Francisco. (imagine hearing "Old Man River") When I saw his storied face I knew he would be my next stranger. Ely is retired and plays his guitar and sings for extra change. He was a sweet man and when he saw my camera he told me to go ahead and take his picture and started to sing. I snapped off a few shots, threw a few dollars in his guitar case and went on my merry way.
Thank you Ely!

The rich baritone hooting of the Barred Owl is a characteristic sound in mixed, mature forests. To be responsible, I photographed the owl very judiciously, and only from long distances with huge magnification. If you are lucky enough to find one, don't approach too closely, as the birds are stressed enough looking for food. View from a distance through binoculars, scope or long-lens camera.

Today my studio was graced by the presence of my dear friend, Baritone Bass extraordinaire, Roosevelt Andre Credit.
From the brief but enjoyable photo shoot that followed, here's one of my favorite frames, just out of the darkroom.
These images are of my new Lanikai Baritone Ukulele CP2 got me for Fathers Day. It's a little late as it was a special order and was delayed. The new axe is made out of Koa wood from Hawaii, has Mother Of Pearl inlays in the fret board, is fully wired with a built in tuner and full tonal control. In addition, it has a USB port so I can plug it directly into Garage Band or Final Cut in my Mac computers, which could be great fun and a new area to be creative and have fun.
Having played guitar off and on for most of my life, this is not a new activity for me. However, I haven't played much in recent years and CP2 decided it was time for me to get my eyes off of my iMac so much and do something else for self entertainment. What a great call he made as I'm have a terrific time with it. The quality is wonderful and it has a wonderful tone - both acoustically or wired.
Thank you CP2...
