| 释义 |
The Georgians were a jazz and dance band formed in 1921 and led by trumpeter Frank Guarente.[1] It was one of the earliest "bands within a band",[2] being a subset of the Phil Specht Orchestra.[3] Specht's full group played in the ballroom of the Hotel Alamac in New York City beginning in 1920; a subgroup performed in the hotel's cocktail lounge[3] or nightclub[4] under the leadership of Guarente. The Georgians recorded on Columbia Records. Specht credited Columbia A & R executive Frank Walker with the group's name.[1] The Georgians' first recording was Columbia A3775, containing "I Wish I Could Shimmy Like My Sister Kate" and their rendition of the popular tune "Chicago" on the flip side, released in March 1923.[1] Another record was Columbia 23-D: "Hometown Blues" and "You May Be Fast, But Your Mama's Gonna Slow You Down". Their chief arranger was pianist Arthur Schutt.[2] The group toured Europe from 1922 to 1924, before rejoining the Phil Specht Orchestra.[3] After the group disbanded, Guarente formed the New Georgians and toured Europe from 1924 to 1927.[4] A few studio recording groups used the name between 1924 and 1929. According to one source, they were the Georgians without Guarente and with different directors,[1] while Scott Yanow states they were unrelated.[4] Two titles were released in 1925 featuring Red Nichols.[4] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=http://www.gracyk.com/georgians.shtml |title=The Georgians--1920s Jazz Ensemble Led by Frank Guarente (from Another Book About Popular American Recording Pioneers: 1895-1925: The Unpublished Entries) |author=Tim Gracyk |publisher=gracyk.com |accessdate=April 21, 2012}} 2. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.musicweb-international.com/jazz/2007/georgians_RTR79003.htm |title=The Georgians 1922-1923 |publisher=musicweb-international.com |accessdate=April 21, 2012}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.redhotjazz.com/georgians.html |title=The Georgians |publisher=redhotjazz.com |accessdate=April 21, 2012}} 4. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=http://www.allrovi.com/name/the-georgians-mn0000076870 |title=The Georgians music biography |author=Scott Yanow |publisher=AllRovi |accessdate=April 21, 2012}} External links
