Description

Jackie Davis Biography by Steve Huey One of the earliest jazz organists, Jackie Davis emerged not long after Wild Bill Davis, around the same time as Milt Buckner and Bill Doggett. Davis was born in Jacksonville, FL, on December 13, 1920, and began playing piano around town before he was even ten. He soon joined a band and a 19-piece orchestra, and went on to study music at Florida A&M. He experimented with pipe organ, but didn't make the switch until the advent of the Hammond, which responded much more quickly to the player's hands, making it far more suitable for jazz. Early on, Davis was a follower of Wild Bill Davis, and like Bill Doggett, he gained valuable experience playing for a little over a year in Louis Jordan's band. Davis began leading his own sessions in the mid-'50s, and spent 16 years recording numerous albums for Capitol, debuting with Hi-Fi Hammond. Most of his work fell into the realm of small-group soul-jazz, often with covers of pop standards, though there were occasional changes in instrumentation (Jackie Davis Meets the Trombones, The Hammond Organ Plus Voices) and stylistic detours (Hammond Gone Cha-Cha, plus some later gospel sessions). Davis returned with a new self-titled album for EMI in 1980, plus an appearance in the comedy Caddyshack. Davis continued to make his home in Jacksonville, where he died on November 2, 1999, following complications from a stroke.

No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains, labels or writing, tears or splits. Mint means perfect. NEAR MINT ---- Otherwise mint but has one or two tiny inconsequential flaws that do not affect play. Covers should be close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident: slight ring-wear, minor denting to a corner, or writing on the cover should all be noted properly. VERY GOOD PLUS ---- The record has been handled and played infrequently or very carefully. Not too far from perfect. On a disc, there may be light paper scuffs from sliding in and out of a sleeve or the vinyl or some of the original luster may be lost. A slight scratch that did not affect play would be acceptably VG+ for most collectors. VERY GOOD ---- Record displays visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, light surface scratches, groove wear and spindle trails. Some audible surface noise, but should not overwhelm the musical experience. Usually a cover is VG when one or two of these problems are evident: ring wear, seam splits, bent corners, loss of gloss, stains, etc. GOOD ---- Well played with little luster and significant surface noise. Despite defects, record should still play all the way through without skipping. Several cover flaws will be apparent, but should not obliterate the artwork. POOR ---- Any record or cover that does not qualify for the above "Good" grading should be seen as Poor. Several cover flaws.
