That Mellow Saxophone
[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]Entstehung
[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]Stuart Colman beschrieb 2011 die Entstehung des : "Der Song wurde in New Orleans erdacht, als John und Roy sam Klavier zusammensaßen. Roy steuerte die Eingangszeile bei (...), John folgte."[1] 1955 nahm Montrell zwei Sessions für Speciatly unter eigenem Namen auf. Es begleiteten Lee Allen am Tenorsaxophon und Alvin Tyler am Baritonsaxophon. Edward Frank spielte Klavier, Frank Fields den Bass und Earl Palmer das Schlagzeug. Eigentlich war eine Aufnahme von Good Golly Miss Molly vorgesehen, das später durch Little Richard zum Hit wurde, die allerdings nicht rund zu bekommen war. Daher wurden aus der ersten Session Everytime I Hear that Mellow Saxophone zusammen mit Ooh Wow! für Specialty 583 ausgewählt. Die beiden anderen Titel der zweiten Session blieben unveröffentlicht.[2]

She was later immortalized in his blues ballad “Miss Ann.” | |

The Johnsons took care of him, put him back in school and let him perform in their club. To this day, Little Richard gives them credit for being second parents and for giving him a chance. The song "Miss Ann" is, according to Penniman, for and about Ann Johnson. | bisher keine Antwort auf Mailanfrage Johnson vs. Howard |

1990 | Dan Maley | Dan Maley: Hometown pals recall rocker's excentric style. In: Winnipeg Free Press, 29. September 1990, S. 31 | [Percy] Welch's band and Little Richard played all over Macon, at clubs like the Manhattan Club, the Elk's club, Club Fifteen. Sawyer's Lake and Ann's Tick-Tock Club. "We started to play down at Ann's Tick-Tock and (owner Ann Howard) was crazy about him." Welch said. "She wanted to take him home with her. Of course, he was bringing all those people into the place... Six nights a week it stayed packed from 6 o'clock to whenever they went home... He was singing Tutti Frutti right there." Howard, who now lives in a nursing home, said she first met Little Richard when he was washing dishes at a bus station down the street from her club on Broadway. "He would come after (the bus station) closed down to work for me," Howard said. "He would work in the kitchen and then he would go on stage and play for 45 minutes or an hour and then go back in the kitchen." She said Little Richard was openly gay and fit in well in her club, which she described as "the only real gay bar in Georgia. He wore makeup, jewelry, ear-bobs and all. Everybody could tell him downtown, because he dressed to the fashion and all. He had a navy blue cape with a gold lining," Howard said. "He played a guitar, a piano and a sax, and he would walk on the bar at night and blow his horn. Anything to add on his show. He was a good one." Howard said she has seen Little Richard on television recently and thinks he is as popular now as he ever was. | |
??? | Eugene Chadbourne | Eugene Chadbourne: Enotris Johnson. In: Allmusic. | Enotris Johnson and his wife, Ann Johnson, devout white Seventh Day Adventists, adopted and raised a total of a dozen children, both black and white. One of these was Richard Penniman, who took on the stage name of Little Richard in the '50s. In the spring of 1956, this artist released one of the greatest rock & roll classics of all time, "Long Tall Sally." The rowdy selection is one of two songs from Little Richard's repertoire for which Johnson is listed as a co-writer; the other is "Jenny, Jenny," also a substantial hit for Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels in the '60s. Religious zealots may wring their hands over the suspicion that Johnson, sometimes listed as a lyricist in connection with these songs, wrote sordid lyrics such as this famous passage: "I saw Uncle John talking to 'Long Tall Sally.' She saw me comin' and he ducked back in the alley." Yet Johnson's connection with these mystic rock goddesses, "Long Tall Sally" and "Jenny, Jenny," is simply an example of Little Richard's generosity in regard to the folks who raised him. It is never the case of the singer not the song when it comes to gift credits: the right song can result in an endless cascade of royalties, with any and all singers lining up to sing it. Johnson winds up with one of the longest sets of discographical credits known to mankind from these two songs alone, establishing a niche in the roots repertoire of the Beatles as well as his adopted son. | Mail von Eugene Chadbourne nach Anfrage zu seinen Quellen: ...thanks for your interesting letter. Unfortunately I have not been working for AMG for a few years and did all of that biographical work under very tight time pressures, I always feel sad I remember so little of it but there was nothing special about references, just what i found on internet and various books on music. cheers doc chad. |
2002 | Joe S. Harrington | Joe S. Harrington: Sonic Cool: The Life & Death of Rock 'n' Roll. Biographies and Commentary, Hal Leonard Corporation, 2002, S. 50 | The turning point came when a white club owner and his wife adopted Richard. Before long, the boy began to perform at the Tick Tock Club. a Macon hot spot owned by the white copule, Johnny and Ann Johnson. Richards till credits the Johnsons with being the only true "family" he ever had and claims he wrote "Miss Ann" about Ann Johnson. After reading his autobiography it's easy to see why - he apparently lusted after her big country bosoms! | |
2007 | Phillip Ramati | Phillip Ramati: Little Richard benefactor dies at 82. In: The Macon Telegraph (Georgia), January 18, 2007 | The woman who helped give rock legend Little Richard one of his earliest breaks will be buried today in Dodge County.
Ann Howard, 82, was the owner of Ann's Tick-Tock Club and gave a young Little Richard the opportunity to perform in her Macon nightclub as well as a place to stay in the mid-1950’s. "She allowed Little Richard to do what he did," said Joseph Johnson, curator at the Georgia Music Hall of Fame. "She was almost like a second mama to him." Howard, who died Tuesday after a prolonged illness, had been living at a retirement home for the past 27 years, said her brother, Joe Fellows of Byron. "She was always friendly with people," Fellows said. "She tried to help folks." In a telephone interview Wednesday, Little Richard, whose real name is Richard Penniman, recalled Howard and her late husband, Johnny, with fond memories. "She was a good lady," he said. "When racism was real strong down there, she was always real nice. Her husband was a good man, and she was a good woman who opened the door for a lot of black people." Considered to be Macon's first openly gay bar, Ann's Tick-Tock Club was located at 408 Martin Luther King Blvd. That's the site of the current Tic Toc Room, which has no affiliation with the earlier nightclub that closed many years ago. In the early 1950's, Little Richard was washing dishes and cleaning at Macon's Greyhound bus station, trying to make ends meet. "He would come after (the bus station) closed down to work for me,"Howard told The Telegraph in a 1990 interview. "He would work in the kitchen, and then he would go on stage and play for 45 minutes or an hour and then go back in the kitchen." In that same interview, Little Richard's one-time manager, Percy Welch, recalled the singer's relationship with Howard. "We started playing at Ann's Tick-Tock, and (Howard) was crazy about him," Welch said in that interview. "She wanted to bring him home with her. Of course, he was bringing all these people into the place. ... Six nights a week it was packed from 6 o'clock to whenever they went home. ... He was singing 'Tutti Frutti' right there." Howard is survived by her brother and three sisters, Sallie Cox and Sarah Ashley of Macon, and Barbara Dennis of North Augusta, S.C. She had no children. Her funeral will be at 2 p.m. today in the Pleasant Olive Cemetery in Chester. Richard of course recorded Miss Ann more than once and has performed it often over the last 50 years. |
Facebook-Nachricht von Phillip Ramati nach Anfrage zu Johnson vs. Howard: I'll be honest, it was 7 years ago, and I can't remember the details of the story. (...) Our online archives only go back to 1994. If I referenced something from before then, it would have been a paper copy of the story. (...) Other than Google search, I'm not sure where else it would be online. I don't have the time to go through our print archives. (...) Good luck. |
2008 | Paul MacPhail | Paul MacPhail: Little Richard: The Originator of Rock. Selbstverlag, 2008. | A white couple, Ann and Johnny Johnson, who ran the Tick Tock, a Macon nightclub, had pity on him and he spent a lot of time with them. The Johnson's cared for him and let him play at their club and they put him back in school. He gave them credit for being his second parents and giving him a chance. A future hit song "Miss Ann" was for and about Ann Johnson. | |
2009 | David Kirby | David Kirby: Little Richard. The Birth of Rock ’n’ Roll. 1. Auflage. Continuum, New York 2009, S. 82 f. | In an e-mail to me about Little Richard [Pee-Wee] Clark writes: "I knew him... as an entertainer when he was at the Tic Toc restaurant (sic) on Broadway in Macon. (...)" Little Richard's position on the Macon social scale was further complicated by talk about liaison that seems unlikely, in retrospect, though any relationship between a flomboyant performer and a lady nightclub owner whom some might have thought too big for her britches would have generated gossip. Clark writes: "I do know there was a big stink about him and 'Ann,' the lady that owned the Tic Toc. Many people were talking about he and she being... how shall I put it...'too close.'" Opened in 1951, Ann's Tick-Tock Club was a rare venue in that it was one of the first truly integrated gathering places of any kind in Macon. This may have something to do with the great leveler of humanity, the military. There was numerous bases nearby, and when our fighting men hopped out of those uniforms and escaped from their by-the-book routine, it stands to reason that at least some ot them were going to head for a place where all were welcome regardless of race or sexual orientation. And if there was a joint in town where gender-bending and race-mixing were allowed and maybe even encouraged, the Tick-Tock was it. Little Richard even used the name of Ann Howard, th owner, in his song "Miss Ann." The Tick-Tock closed as a nightclub in 1975 and the building deteriorated for about a quarter century. In 2000 the building was purchased by a Connecticut restauanteur and gutted; an upscale restaurans called the Tic Toc Room now occupies the space where a more rough-and-ready venue once stood. | |
2010 | Steven Otfinoski | Steven Otfinoski: African Americans in the Performing Arts. A to Z of African Americans, Infobase Publishing, 2010, S. 144 | Another part of Little Richard was his homosexuality, which exhibited itself at an early age. His family frowned on his sexual orientation as well as the rhythm and blues (R & B) he liked and threw him out of the house at age 13. He eventually was taken in by a white couple, Ann and Johnny Johnson, who run a local night-spot, the Tick Tock Club. The Johnsons took care of Richard and let him perform his R & B music in the club. He was forever grateful to the family and wrote the song "Miss Ann" (1957) in Ann Johnson's honor. | |
2010 | Jack Johnson | Ann Grace Fellows Howard (1924-2007) In: Find A Grave | Birth: Oct. 12, 1924 Dodge County Georgia, USA Death: Jan. 16, 2007 Macon Bibb County Georgia, USA One of thirteen children of Mattie Lou Darsey and Lewis Milton Fellows. She grew up in and around Dodge and Laurens County, Georgia with her siblings: Rufus, Blanton C., Dorine, Kathy Lou, Laverne, Sallie, Roger, Robbie Faye, Barbara, Sara Lucille, Billy, and Joe. She married Johnny Howard and in 1951, opened a nightclub, Ann's Tic Toc, in Macon, Georgia. Among the notable entertainers to perform on her stage in the 1950's and 1960's were Little Richard, Otis Redding, and James Brown. Through her connections with them and other nightclub owners, she knew a host of entertainers, like Aretha Franklin. She was a warm, caring, and generous person and was instrumental in giving Little Richard his start. She hired him to sing and to work in the kitchen and reportedly took him in to stay at her home. His song, Miss Ann, was dedicated to her and his song Long Tall Sally was dedicated to her sister, Sallie Cox. The Tic Toc was Macon's first openly gay bar but it closed in 1975 when Ann's health forced her to retire. At the time of her death, she was survived by one brother, Joe Fellows of Byron, Georgia and three of her sisters, Sallie Cox and Sara Lucille Ashley of Macon, Georgia and Barbara Dennis of North Augusta, South Carolina. "Miss Ann" and her bar attained a degree of legendary status. She is remembered fondly by 24 years of patrons. The piano from her bar is displayed in the Georgia Music Hall of Fame in Macon. |
