With billows and blasts from choirs and orchesters
Buskers and talkers
Big bands and squawkers,
the Stork Club has retained its qualities of decaying elegance and dwindling significance since the late 1950s.

Favoriting April 14, 2024: Morty, Shorty, The Jug, and Thou

Three birthday bubees doted on today at The Stork: 91-year old LA-born electronic composer Morton Subotnick (albeit shamefully briefly - i WILL atone!); trumpet/flugelhorn player Shorty Rogers on his centennial, whose kaleidoscopic arrangements still sound brandy-new, and 99-year-old Chi-town tenor giant Gene Ammons - The Boss! The Jug!!

' Morton Subotnick (born April 14, 1933) is an American composer of electronic music, best known for his 1967 composition Silver Apples of the Moon, the first electronic work commissioned by a record company, Nonesuch. He was one of the founding members of California Institute of the Arts, where he taught for many years.
Subotnick has worked extensively with interactive electronics and multi-media, co-founding the San Francisco Tape Music Center with Pauline Oliveros and Ramon Sender, often collaborating with his wife Joan La Barbara. Morton Subotnick is one of the pioneers in the development of electronic music and multi-media performance and an innovator in works involving instruments and other media, including interactive computer music systems. Most of his music calls for a computer part, or live electronic processing; his oeuvre utilizes many of the important technological breakthroughs in the history of the genre. '

' Milton "Shorty" Rogers (born Milton Rajonsky; April 14, 1924 – November 7, 1994) was an American jazz musician, one of the principal creators of West Coast jazz. He played trumpet and flugelhorn and was in demand for his skills as an arranger. '

Reminded again that 'Birth of the Cool' was recorded 1949-50, but not released til '57. Which seems some kind of mess ...like Kerouac just carrying 'On The Road' around for some time...
