April 5th 2011 Jazzkeller Frankfurt Party and Concert Celebrating 25 Years Musikmesse
Annual Musikmesse Warm Up Party in Jazzkeller Frankfurt hosted by Jon Hammond Band will be celebrating 25 consecutive years performing in the International Musikmesse which is the biggest event in the music lights and sound Industry.
Jon Hammond is very proud to announce the line up and happy to return again to the world famous stage of Jazzkeller Frankfurt, the oldest jazz club in all of Germany. Joe Berger guitar and Jon Hammond organ are both from USA, known affectionately to their music friends as Ham-Berger (we're on a roll! Jon and Joe often say) long-time associates and a fixture at many trade shows, as seen on the long-running NYC based TV show "The Jon Hammond Show" now in 27th year. Tony Lakatos the great Hungarian tenor sax star from Budapest, from the famous Lakatos Family of Hungarian Gypsy music tradition going back generations. Tony is a lifetime member of the HR Hessischer Rundfunk Radio Big Band and currently playing with Herbie Hancock. Tony is an artist endorsee for P. Mauriat saxophones.

Tony, Giovanni and Jon were often the house band, by Jon played 207 gigs there with the boys, often joined by other well known musicians in the after hours, including: Attila Cornelius Zoller (June 13, 1927 – January 25, 1998) Jazz guitarist from Visegrád, Hungary R.I.P., Stephen Ferrone drummer of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, AWB and Eric Clapton. The music went on there often until 5AM in the morning, it was a meeting point for musicians and new arrivals to the Frankfurt scene as well as old-timers. Jazzkeller Frankfurt is a very special location and atmosphere with a very important history, a favorite of musicians and jazz fans going back to Louis Armstrong, Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers, Chet Baker and many others. Jon Hammond calls Jazzkeller his "Good Luck Room" and Frankfurt his "Good Luck City". This is the place where Jon had his very first Frankfurt gigs, the 3rd of a series was a packed full house after Jon Hammond appeared on the local TV program "Hessen Report" on RTL Plus Television. Beatrix Rief moderator host of Hessen Report recommended Jon Hammond's show at the Jazzkeller and ever since a tradition has been established, Jon Hammond comes back to play there very year and will until the very end.

SEIT 1952 WELSTARS "HAUTNAH"
Rückblick
Frankfurter Rundschau 1977, anläßlich Jazzkeller '25

...Seit 25 Jahren Mekka der Jazzfans: das "Domicile du Jazz"
...wie die Zeit vergeht, mal nachrechnen. Tatsächlich, der "Keller" ist so alt.

Eigentlich heißt er ganz vornehm "Domicil du Jazz", aber wer nennt ihn schon so, den Jazzkeller in der Kleinen Bockenheimer. Und heute feiert man dort die 25. Für uns scheint die Zeit stehengeblieben zu sein, denn hier haben jetzt andere ihr Zuhause gefunden. Junge Leute, zu denen wir keinen rechten Kontakt finden können. Sie werden nie ganz verstehen, was der Keller für Frankfurt und für uns bedeutet hat. Damals (1952), als sich für uns die Welt nur um den Jazz gedreht hat ... Wem haben wir nicht andächtig gelauscht - später aber, scheu zunächst, dann selbstverständlich unterhalten? An diesem Tisch dort saßen einst Frank Sinatra und Dean Martin. Mürrisch der eine Star, freundlich und redselig der andere. An dem Piano dort, ist es noch dasselbe? - schwitzte Horace Silver, in der Ecke hat Oscar Pettiford seinen Bass singen lassen. Mit Stan Getz, dem großen Musiker und bescheidenen, intelligenten Menschen haben wir hier unvergeßliche Stunden verbracht. An der Bar hat uns Trompeter Cat Anderson anvertraut, das deutsche Publikum verstünde mehr vom Jazz als die Amerikaner, er wolle darum lieber hier bleiben. Er fuhr dennoch heim mit Duke Ellington, seinem Chef, unserem Idol....

Die Atmosphäre im "Keller" war absolut privat. Die Musiker spielten ohne Gage, fürs Bier oder einen Whisky. Für die Jazzer aus Übersee war er ein Treff von Format.

Sie haben nicht alle gespielt, wenn sie hier im Club waren, doch sie beeinflußten das Klima und setzten Maßstäbe.

Frankfurt Allgemeine Zeitung 1992, anläßlich Jazzkeller '40

Man steigt in der Kleinen Bockenheimer 18a die neunzehn Stufen hinab und steht unvermittelt im unterirdischen Parnaß: im Gewölbe des Frankfurter Jazzkellers. Kein Jazzlokal in Deutschland ist älter als die vom Frankfurter Trompeter und Musiktheoretiker Carlo Boländer nach französichen Vorbildern eröffnete, zunächst "domicile du jazz" und heute nur als "der Keller" bezeichnete Kneipe. Kein Podium in dieser Republik kann sich rühmen, auch nur annährend so viele national und international bekannte Jazzmusiker beherbergt zu haben.

Mythische Orte wie der Jazzkeller bilden ihre eigenen Legenden. Zu den Legenden zählen auch die Auftritte von Musikern wie Louis Armstrong oder Dizzy Gillespie in den fünfziger Jahren. Im Keller sind zwar beide gewesen, wie Fotos belegen; der Bebop Trompeter Gillespie trat jedoch erst im Dezember '88 auf, nach dem der jetzige Inhaber, der Berliner Eugen Hahn, den Star engagierte. Der jetzige Chef Eugen Hahn hat aus den Gegebenheiten der 90er seine Konsequenzen gezogen, eine neue Programmpolitik mit jazzy-disco, und auch populären Jazzformen betrieben, außerdem auch die Stars - die Dizzy Gillespies, Chet Bakers, Archie Shepps oder Flora Purims - auf die Bühne geholt, dem Keller ein neues Publikum erschlossen und eine gewisse ökonomische Basis für die Zukunft geschaffen.
Dr. Wolfgang Sandner


Frankfurt Allgemeine Zeitung, August 1999
Unscheinbar ist er, der Eingang an der Kleinen Bockenheimer Straße. Unbedarfte Flaneure und Nachtschwärmer, die an späten Sommerabenden recht zahlreich durch die enge Gasse spazieren, werden kaum ahnen, daß sich im Untergeschoß des schmucklosen Geschäftshauses mit der Nummer 18a eine Frankfurter Institution mit Weltruf befindet. Wer dagegen weiß, was ihn erwartet, der entrichtet an der Abend für Abend immer aufs Neue mit einem Barhocker und einer einfachen Holzkiste improvisierten Kasse seinen Obolus, um dann auf einer steilen Treppe hinabzusteigen in eines der ältesten und bekanntesten Jazz-Lokale Europas.

Der "Jazzkeller" verdient seinen Namen. Das kleine dunkle Gewölbe scheint schon auf den ersten Blick wie der Inbegriff des "Clubs". Heiß ist es. Laut. Rauchig. Und stets voller Leute, die zu guter Musik und erschwinglichen Getränkepreisen den Abend ausklingen oder die Nacht zum Tag werden lassen wollen. Seit 47 Jahren ist das so - und so schnell wird sich daran auch nichts ändern.

Carlo Bohländer, Urgestein der Frankfurter Jazz-Familie, zog 1952 mit der damals noch sehr überschaubaren Szene in den Keller an der Kleinen Bockenheimer, die schon bald nur noch als "Jazzgass" in aller Munde war. Der große Louis Armstrong tauchte noch im Gründungsjahr auf (der Andrang soll so groß gewesen sein, daß Satchmo in dem Gedränge ein Glas Wein übergossen wurde), Dizzy Gillespie ließ sich ebenfalls bald blicken, und auch Lionel Hampton kam und spielte auf der kleinen hölzernen Bühne. Jede Menge Erinnerungsfotos und Zeitungsausschnitte an den Wänden zeugen heute von den Besuchen und Jamsessions von Roy Eldridge, Chet Baker, Stan Getz und Ella Fitzgerald. Selbst Frank Sinatra soll einmal kurz dagewesen sein. Und Albert Mangelsdorff hat hier unten sein berühmt gewordenes Quintett gegründet.

Das Publikum ist dem "Jazzkeller" immer treu geblieben, auch wenn der Club im Laufe der Jahre bisweilen kurz vor dem Abgrund stand und manche Wandlung mitgemacht hat - vom improvisierten Musiker-Treff zum professionell geführten Nachtlokal mit Konzert- und Diskobetrieb. Die Gäste lassen sich noch immer nicht in eine der gängigen Schubladen stecken - da sitzt am späten Abend der ermüdete, aber amüsierwillige Unternehmensberater neben dem zottigen Musik-Freak an der Bar, da tanzt das in die Jahre gekommene Szene-Girl ausgelassen neben der gutgelaunten Werbetexterin.

Gemein ist den Mitgliedern dieses bunt gemischten Völkchens nur ihre Liebe zum Jazz und der artverwandten Musik - und darum finden sie immer wieder den Weg in die Kleine Bockenheimer und steigen die steilen Stufen hinab in den ältesten Jazz-Club der Republik.

"Meet The Incredible Sk1 Hammond with Michael Falkenstein and Jon Hammond"
First look at this exciting new keyboard product weighing in at 7 kilos, just over 15 lbs., it sounds like a real Hammond B3 organ with Leslie, or a full size grand piano, any type of famous vintage electric piano or synthesizer. This keyboard does it all and with original Hammond drawbars and it's feather light. Sk1 has a built in USB flash drive input, the keys are 'bullet proof' waterfall style keys that can hold up to extreme pressure of rockin' rock musicians, swinging jazz musicians and can even sound like a huge pipe organ. This film will blow your mind.

Musikmesse-Session mit Jon Hammond Fr. 08.04.
Schon traditionell findet bei uns zur Frankfurter Musikmesse ein Treffen hochkarätiger Musiker statt. Wie auch in den vergangenen Jahren ist der aus New York stammende Orgelspieler Jon Hammond, mit Joe Berger „Berger-meister“, Peter Klohmann und Giovanni Gulino, angesagt.

Im Spiel geht Jon Hammond absolut in seiner Musik und seiner Leidenschaft für den guten alten Hammond-Sound auf. Mit 18 Jahren kaufte er sich seine erste Hammond B3 und tourte mit der Rockband Hades im Vorprogramm von Tower Of Power oder Michael Bloomfield. Ein regelrechter Genießer: Seinen Kopf wiegt er ständig von einer Seite zur anderen. Die linke Hand ersetzt größtenteils den Part eines Bassisten, zusätzlich zu den verschiedenen Klangfarben, die er manuell justiert.

Der Gitarrist Joe Berger gleicht einem Saiten-Hasardeur. Er spielte bereits mit Who-Bassist John Entwistle und sorgte in dessen Band für den Studio-Mix. Peter Klohmann ist ein junger talentierter Tenorsaxophonist. Giovanni Gulino ziseliert an den Becken, setzt genaue Akzente auf der Fußtrommel und spielt leichte, luftige Melodien auf der Snare.

R.I.P. Dear Phoebe Snow *here with Jon Hammond June 21, 2007 after Birdland NYC show

Phoebe Snow, Bluesy Singer-Songwriter, Dies at 60
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Published: April 26, 2011

Phoebe Snow, a bluesy singer, guitarist and songwriter whose “Poetry Man” was a defining hit of the 1970s but who then largely dropped out of the spotlight to care for her disabled daughter, died Tuesday. She was 60.

Michelle V. Agins/The New York Times
Phoebe Snow in concert at Birdland Jazz Club.

Ms. Snow, who was nominated for best new artist at the 1975 Grammy Awards, died in Edison, N.J., from complications of a brain hemorrhage she had in January 2010, said Rick Miramontez, her longtime friend and public relations representative.

Ms. Snow’s manager, Sue Cameron, said the singer endured bouts of blood clots, pneumonia and congestive heart failure since her stroke.

Known as a folk guitarist who made forays into jazz and blues, Ms. Snow put her stamp on soul classics like “Shakey Ground,” “Love Makes a Woman” and “Mercy, Mercy Mercy” on over a half dozen albums.

Not long after Ms. Snow’s “Poetry Man” reached the Top 5 on the pop singles chart in 1975, her daughter, Valerie Rose, was born with severe brain damage, and Ms. Snow decided to care for her at home rather than place her in an institution.

“She was the only thing that was holding me together,” she told The San Francisco Chronicle in 2008. “My life was her, completely about her, from the moment I woke up to the moment I went to bed at night.”

Valerie, who had been born with hydrocephalus, a buildup of fluid in the brain cavity that inhibits brain development, was not expected to live more than a few years. She died in 2007 at age 31.

Over the years, Ms. Snow found time to sing on Paul Simon’s song “Gone at Last” and tour with him, as well as perform at the Woodstock 25th anniversary festival in 1994, as part of a soul act that included Thelma Houston, Mavis Staples and CeCe Peniston.

Snow was also recruited by Steely Dan’s Donald Fagen to participate in the New York Rock and Soul Revue, which took her, Charles Brown, Michael McDonald, Boz Scaggs and others on tour and into the Beacon Theatre to record a rollicking live album in 1991.

“Occasionally I put an album out, but I didn’t like to tour, and they didn’t get a lot of label support,” she told The Chronicle. “But you know what? It didn’t really matter because I got to stay home more with Valerie, and that time was precious.”

She was born Phoebe Ann Laub to white Jewish parents in New York City on July 17, 1950, and raised in Teaneck, N.J. Though many assumed she was black, Ms. Snow never claimed African-American ancestry.

She changed her name after seeing Phoebe Snow, an advertising character for a railroad, emblazoned on trains that passed through her town. Snow quit college after two years to perform in amateur nights at Greenwich Village folk clubs.

Her first record, “Phoebe Snow,” came out in 1974, and showed off her songwriting chops on a selection of tunes that spanned blues, jazz and folk. The hit-bound “Poetry Man” took the record to No. 4 on the album charts, but her success was uneasy.

“There are turning points in everyone’s life where you decide if you’re going to sink or swim. My insecurity wasn’t serving me well at all. It was really a stumbling block,” she told The Associated Press in 1989.

Rumors abounded that Jackson Browne was Poetry Man. “No, no, it’s somebody you wouldn’t know. People just thought ‘Poetry Man’ was Browne because he was the first act I toured with,” Ms. Snow told USA Today in 1989.

After 1976’s gold-selling “Second Childhood,” Ms. Snow’s subsequent albums found smaller audiences. Through the 1980s and into the 1990s, Snow sang commercial jingles — for companies including Michelob, Hallmark and AT&T — and performed live here and there.

Inexperienced in the music business, she broke a number of contracts with record companies and others, and found herself involved in a number of lawsuits and had financial problems. Ms. Snow’s husband, the musician Phil Kearns, left her while Valerie was a baby.

She sang the theme for NBC’s “A Different World” and the jingle “Celebrate the Moments of Your Life” for General Foods International Coffees. She also sang at the radio host Howard Stern’s wedding to Beth Ostrosky in 2008 and for President Bill Clinton, who asked her to perform at Camp David during his presidency.

In 2003, she released the CD “Natural Wonder,” her first album of new, original material in 14 years. Her other albums include 1989’s “Something Real,” and 1981’s “Rock Away.” In 2008, she released a live album titled “Live” and a best-of CD in 2001.
