Jack Sheldon • Out!

 

Biography
by Scott Yanow
One of the great jokesters in jazz (whose spontaneous monologues are as hilarious as they are tasteless), Jack Sheldon's personality has sometimes overshadowed his excellent trumpet playing and effective vocals. Sheldon started playing professionally at age 13. He moved to Los Angeles in 1947, joined the Air Force and played in military bands. After his discharge, Sheldon became a popular figure on the West Coast, playing and recording with many top musicians including Jimmy Giuffre, Herb Geller, Wardell Gray, Stan Kenton, Benny Goodman, Curtis Counce, and Art Pepper. He worked as an actor in the 1960s (including starring in the short-lived television series Run Buddy Run), was seen nightly on The Merv Griffin Show, and in the 1970s and '80s he performed with Benny Goodman, Bill Berry's big band, in the studios, and with his own groups. He also made his mark on millions of American children by being the vocalist for both "Conjuction Junction" and "I'm Just a Bill" from the Schoolhouse Rocks! series. Into the mid-'90s, Jack Sheldon (who often uses a big band arranged by Tom Kubis) remained quite active in the Los Angeles area, recording regularly for Concord and his Butterfly label.

Biografía
por Scott Yanow
Uno de los grandes bromistas del jazz (cuyos monólogos espontáneos son tan hilarantes como insípidos), la personalidad de Jack Sheldon ha eclipsado a veces su excelente forma de tocar la trompeta y su eficaz voz. Sheldon empezó a tocar profesionalmente a los 13 años. Se trasladó a Los Ángeles en 1947, se alistó en las Fuerzas Aéreas y tocó en bandas militares. Tras su licenciamiento, Sheldon se convirtió en una figura popular en la Costa Oeste, tocando y grabando con muchos músicos de primera fila, como Jimmy Giuffre, Herb Geller, Wardell Gray, Stan Kenton, Benny Goodman, Curtis Counce y Art Pepper. Trabajó como actor en la década de 1960 (incluso protagonizó la efímera serie de televisión Run Buddy Run), se le veía todas las noches en The Merv Griffin Show, y en las décadas de 1970 y 1980 actuó con Benny Goodman, la big band de Bill Berry, en los estudios y con sus propios grupos. ¡También dejó huella en millones de niños estadounidenses al ser el vocalista de "Conjuction Junction" y "I'm Just a Bill" de la serie Schoolhouse Rocks! A mediados de los 90, Jack Sheldon (que a menudo utiliza una big band arreglada por Tom Kubis) siguió bastante activo en la zona de Los Ángeles, grabando regularmente para Concord y su sello Butterfly.
