This recording made by Frank Wallace of Wallace's High Tavern between 1956 and 1962 appears to be Mr. Lambert playing James P. Johnson's improvised C section to an old song named "Roumania," A song which seems to be most well known from the piano rolls made by James P. Johnson and Eubie Blake. ROUMANIA words and music by Clarence Williams, Dave Peyton, Spencer Williams

I really love your uploads man, togetherness we can provide so much historical content!
Eubie was really " on " that day. It is his best recorded version of Troublesome Ivories.
This is one of those times when the old cliche "They don't make'm like that anymore" seems very appropriate. What a unique artist and individual. He changed the course of music history.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤❤
Well done
Fabulous!
Lambert inspiration detected 😊
@@christophebenz heehee
Excellent stuff!
Skills are intense.
@@Sleepyakapuertoroc wepa
Dope!!
Thank you, I was very rusty today but glad I jammed out several times.
Brilliant!! Keep up the amazing work!@@SugarBearMosher
I’ve heard this tune before many times but I don’t know the name by memory is this “just one of those things”or Gershwin? That right hand following the melody is very nicely paired with the fast stride near the end well played
@@b-at8183 it is "Fone and Dandy" Thank you for your conpliments!
@@b-at8183 fine and dandy***
Wow!!!
Amazing!!!
@kosmokadet9 many thanks to you for cultivating me into the pianist I am today
You are a gifted musician. What a wonderful variety of selections played in your own style.
Thank you so much. My playing was very creative and reliable despite being 6 days post- mental breakdown. A lot of improvising that worked wonderful.
Nice video bro! You know, it might be a good idea to to use a platform where if you go live on Facebook, it'll also go live on RUclips so you have all those wonderful uploads here too! Adam Swanson does that for example
The mumbling growl under his breath is a beautiful accompaniment. Joseph Spence did something similar
@@BrunoEspo bud Powell also 💚
Wonderful channel!!!
The audio is so clear like you are standing right next to him - lol thanks I noticed you wrote about the recording setup
Stile elegantissimo!
Wow, this is incredible! Lambert’s chords are gorgeous and haunting. Thanks for uploading. 😊
I think Eubie Blake mentions legendary Harlem pianist Alberta Simmons at some point. She is also mentioned by Willie "The Lion" Smith in his autobiography. I did not realize until just today that she was Thelonious Monk's first piano teacher!!! Too bad there are no known recordings of her. 😥 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thelonious_Monk
Wahou !!! Fantastic... Is it possible to buy the records ??? Many thanks for posting.
The back handing of tenths was a Carroll Gibbons thing years before Lambert was known so I don't know why Blesh said it was never heard before.
Mosher my guy, where did you shove that poor piano into? xD
@@PiotrBarcz this was when I had to store all of my belongings in a climate controlled storage unit
@@SugarBearMosher OOh I see.
Et cette main gauche !! Fabuleux
Great performance, bravo! ❤👏
Is that actually coffee? If it is, you do know it's very toxic for dogs?
@UndauntedWill a small amount sipped by a big dog such as her is not toxic enough to cause harm.
❤
This picture is so funny 😂
I first heard Lambert on the Pumpkin LP's and as an aspiring pianist, was utterly blown away by his playing. I want to thank you for all the material that you have posted here - a dream come true. The breadth of his repertoire is remarkable, as is his amazing ability to toss off effortlessly pieces that one suspects he did not play much - such as that brief and wonderful performance of Cherokee that you posted elsewhere on YT.
Beautiful way of playing. Relaxed and full of music.
The lady pianist whom Eubie Blake mentions at 4:51:10, who was Teddy Wilson's wife, (AFTER talking about legendary unrecorded(?) Harlem pianist Alberta Simmons, who was NOT Teddy Wilson's wife!), was Ms. Irene Eadie (Wilson). She DID make a couple of recordings in Chicago accompanying singers, and she played really well. I don't know if any more than those still exists today. The two sides I know about (there may have been more than this), were both accompanying Eloise Bennett, and were issued on Paramount record 12412. They are: master 2745, take 2: "Love Me Mr. Strange Man" and master 2746, take 1: "Effervescent Daddy". Both dating to circa October 1926. This is an extremely rare record and I imagine very few original copies survive today. However, one of the owners of them allowed Document Records to reissue this on one of their numerous CD compilations, in this case the first volume in their series "Female Blues Singers" (Vol. 1), DOCD-5505. So here are these tracks. "Love Me Mr. Strange Man": ruclips.net/video/15FCPWNkNcs/видео.html "Effervescent Daddy": ruclips.net/video/phyR9k8xX8g/видео.html On his currently-defunct website "Chicago South Side Piano", webmaster Paolo Fornara had a theory that this was actually James Blythe on piano under pseudonym (probably since he hadn't heard of Irene Eadie before, although I have!) and when I listened to the sides, as a 15+ - year enthusiast of Mr. Blythe's piano style, I would say for certain it is NOT him, but is another pianist with a different style I don't recognize. Therefore, if Ms. Eadie is credited as the pianist on the record label, surely it was her. She doesn't seem to have been famous enough for any record label to use her name as a pseudonym for anyone else, or for any other purpose. I just hope there are other recordings of her out there somewhere: web.archive.org/web/20231003130343/www.chicagosouthsidepiano.com/jimmy-blythe-eloise-bennett/
I will say she DOES show a lot of James Blythe influence in her playing (and probably vice-versa!), as well as a lot of J. Harry ("Mr. Freddie") Shayne's piano style, as well as Jelly Roll Morton, and other 'horn style' pianists of that era. It is no wonder that with this lady as his wife, Teddy Wilson, also became a 'horn style' pianist as well.
Here's her Wikipedia page. Her original name was Violet Irene Armstrong (no relation to Louis, I'm sure), and later she was known as Irene Armstrong Kitchings. She used the last name "E(a)die" as a stage name. Turns out she WAS alive at the time of this interview (she passed in 1975), too bad none of the parties here knew that at the time (although hopefully they found out later? Did Mike Lipskin ever interview her?): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irene_Kitchings
That's really cool that Eubie Blake shouts her out as a piano "shark" from a decades-old memory, even if he couldn't remember her name. I think the two recordings back this up; she really plays some excellent things behind Ms. Bennett. If Irene Armstrong (Eadie) was really only 18 when these were recorded (her birth year is in question as to whether it was 1903 or 1908), she was really accomplished at that age, another prodigy along the lines of Vee Lawnhurst. Even if she was 23, it's still great playing by any standard.
So cool! Had ZERO idea these two recorded together! And Lambert's blues accompaniment is amazing!
maybe it's time for me to start smoking cigars
RE: "Zig Zag" at 48:25: This tune seems like a Bop tune at the beginning. Which makes sense, since the Lion was friends with Thelonious Monk.
Lambert is sooo fast!
TONY!!!! SO GLAD WE WILL ALWAYS HAVE YOU TO WRITE A SWINGING TUNE THAT COULD HAVE COME STRAIGHT OUT OF THE ERA WE LOVE SO MUCH. I AM ON THE MEND AGAIN FROM A MAJOR EMERGENCY SURGERY. I SOMETIMES WONDER IF I CAN GET STRONG AGAIN AND SING.....LISTENING TO YOU INSPIRES ME GREATLY. MIKE PLAYS WUTH ME INSISTING NOT TONGIVE UP HIS GIGS BECAUSE I'M UNDER THE WEATHER. ANYWAY...THIS IS A GREAT COMPOS8TION. DID YOU DO ALL THE ARRANGEMENTS ON THE CHARTS??? YOU'RE SO INCREDIBLY GREAT. HOPE TO SEE YOU LIVE IN VEGAS SOME DAY. BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. CHEERS, DINAH LEE
A real romper 💃
Sissle & Blake - an iconic combination in music history. Thank you for sharing!!
Quite. We forget that Jimmy himself played a hell of a piano himself! This is a treasure.
Masterpiece, with a wonderful and very effecive bass line.
Donald Lambert. Underated as Fxck
Facts. Also though, We are getting closer to the day where that statement will no longer be true 💚🎹
That's a spanky bass for sure
World's strongest piano hammer shanks.
This is thoroughly in the "Jump Blues" style. A fantastic performance!
And you can still hear Mr Lamberts bass "spank"
@@SugarBearMosher that's so true! Thank you for posting.
OH MY GOD, an expression I rarely use. YES, that is Jimmy Rushing. What a delight! Thank you, Sterling!
Could you elaborate what makes you so sure it is Jimmy Rushing? I do not doubt at all, I just never listened to Rushing enough to identify his voice! Is it a certain boom? A certain range?
@@SugarBearMosher listen to any of his recordings from the Fifties (I would put this as late Fifties) and he is unmistakable.
Wonderful. Thanks for the confirmation, daddy o @swingyoucats
I am a jazz singer. This is fantastic. Think ill study this master piece and use it daily as vocal scale practice. This piece itches my ears when i focus on the harmonics and tones. Quite a task to ajust vocally but an exciting challenge. Yet a new musical awareness Which broadens my own approach to musical creation. Thanku for sharing. More please 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Love the rag style take
Outstanding video! Donald Lambert was severely underrated.
His bass line is always choice!
