credite d with having discovered one of
the fine new Negro bands, that of Bill
"Count" Basie.
Obtaining bands for recordings has
long been a hobby of the younger
Hammond. It was he who persuaded
the Englis h Columbia Co. to releas,e
abroad recordings of some of America s
fine s wing musicians then unknown.
On these recordings, many of them col-
lector's items today, will be found such
names as Benny Goodman, Bennie Car-
ter, Joe Sullivan, Fletcher Henders on
and Red Norvo. To bring these records
to American audiences today it is still
necessary to pay the English company
royalties.
Today, however, he knows just about
everybody in the field. His work with
the American Record Corp. will be no
accident because he will be doing, on
the job, just what he has been doing
for fun in the past-discovering vital
new music in America and bringing it
to the public through the medium of
recordings.
"Today recording companies must do
a crea tive as we ll as a service job,"
Hammond asserts. "It is not enough any
more just to get well-known bands to
make popular tunes. There is too much
of that already. The next job to be
done is to find the new, native, original
music that always has and always will
serve as the source material for Ameri-
can ja zz, and to encourage established
bands to play such typical music."
Hammond Scouts
for American Record Corp.
NEW YORK CITY.-Coming to the po-
sition with a rich background, John
Henry Hammond, Jr. , son of_ a man with
an illustrious record in music, has been
named talent scout and associate re-
cording director for CBS' American Re-
cord Corp. , according to rep~;! of ~xe,~
cutives. Trained in the
classics,
young Hammond, now 28, early discov-
ered "race records" and began at once
to glean information on "jazzology" of
which today he is a walking encyclo-
pedia. His present collection of thou-
sands of phonograph records was be-
gun on a youthful allowance of a doUar
a week. His familiarity with the pic-
turesque and fascinating field of hot
music is b a cked up by sound learning
at Hotchkiss and Yale.
Hammond's interest in "race" music
resulted in his discovery of such per-
sonali lies as the Mitchell Christian
Singers, Pete Johnson, Joe Turner,
Meade Lux Lewis and Albert Ammons,
whose places in the catalogue of the
American Record Corp. assures the ex-
istence as Hammond puts it, of " a trea-
sure h~use of original, native American
music from which we hope to draw
many ' fine artists." Hammond is also
Rock-Ola Parties

BIRMINGHAM. - Rock-Ola parties in
private homes and public places of
amusement are actuall y in style now
days , a ccording to reports corning from
many amus ement centers. In fact the
famous Rock-Ola Luxury Lightup has
become so popular that it attracts atten-

The renting of phonographs for the use
of private parties has become a daily
habit of the Gold Dust twins. In fact
the Hurvich brothers have built up an en-
viable business in renting phonographs
to dances and parties, and the practice
is becoming m ore popular all the time.
The phonograph and the records are
furnished and it is reported that a mar-
velous repeat business is available.
