艺人介绍

by Scott YanowAlthough he spent his career in his brother Jack Teagardens shadow, Charlie Teagarden was an excellent trumpeter who sounded perfectly at home in Dixieland combos and big bands. Born eight years after Jack (who he outlived by 20 years), two years after pianist Norma and two before his brother drummer Cub, Charlies mother Helen was a fine ragtime pianist. The trumpeter worked in local bands in Oklahoma and then followed his brother Jack into Ben Pollacks Orchestra in 1929 where he made his recording debut. Teagarden played with Red Nichols (1931), Roger Wolfe Kahn (1932) and for a long stretch with Paul Whiteman (1933-40). During the Whiteman period, both Teagardens plus Frankie Trumbauer briefly led a group called the Three Ts and Charlie did some freelance recording. He spent time in Jack Teagardens Big Band (starting in 1940) but mostly led his own bands for the next few years. Among Charlie Teagardens more notable associations were Jimmy Dorsey (1948-50) (where he played with a combo taken from the big band that was billed as The Original Dorseyland Jazz Band), Ben Pollack, Bob Crosby (1954-58) and Pete Fountain (in the 1960s). Teagarden was based in Las Vegas after 1959. He appeared at the memorable 1963 Monterey Jazz Festival with Jack, Norma and Helen Teagarden but by the 1970s was only semi-active. Charlie Teagardens only record date as a leader was a session for Coral in 1962.
