DeFrancesco Biography by Scott Yanow
The father of Joey DeFrancesco, "Papa John" had his career revived when his son's success helped bring about the renaissance of the Hammond organ. John's father had played reeds with various swing bands, including the Dorsey Brothers. John DeFrancesco began playing trumpet when he was six and did not start playing organ until his wife bought him an organ for his 23rd birthday. After a few months of nearly nonstop practicing, he was ready to perform in clubs. In 1967 DeFrancesco moved to Philadelphia and soon he was part of the Philadelphia jazz scene. However, in 1979 when Joey turned eight and started playing professionally, John temporarily gave up his career in order to supervise his son. Another son, Johnny DeFrancesco, developed into a fine guitarist. In the 1990s, John DeFrancesco returned to a more active playing career, recording two strong sets for Muse (Doodlin' and Comin' Home -- both of which feature Joey on trumpet) and gaining a national reputation of his own. "Papa John" plays organ in an infectious hard bop style not that different from his son. In the 21st century he signed first to Highnote and then its sister imprint Savant, where he issued a string of fine recordings including Hip Cake Walk in 2001, Jumpin' in 2003, Walking Uptown in 2004, and Desert Heat in 2006. After a five-year recording hiatus, Papa John returned with A Philadelphia Story in a classic B-3 trio setting with John Jr. on guitar and drummer Glenn Ferracone, with guest appearances from Joey and tenor man Joe Fortunato.

Biografía de DeFrancesco por Scott Yanow
El padre de Joey DeFrancesco, "Papa John" revivió su carrera cuando el éxito de su hijo ayudó a lograr el renacimiento del órgano Hammond. El padre de John había tocado juncos con varias bandas de swing, incluidos los Hermanos Dorsey. John DeFrancesco comenzó a tocar la trompeta cuando tenía seis años y no comenzó a tocar el órgano hasta que su esposa le compró un órgano para su cumpleaños número 23. Después de unos meses de practicar casi sin parar, estaba listo para actuar en clubes. En 1967 DeFrancesco se mudó a Filadelfia y pronto formó parte de la escena del jazz de Filadelfia. Sin embargo, en 1979, cuando Joey cumplió ocho años y comenzó a jugar profesionalmente, John abandonó temporalmente su carrera para supervisar a su hijo. Otro hijo, Johnny DeFrancesco, se convirtió en un buen guitarrista. En la década de 1990, John DeFrancesco volvió a una carrera como músico más activa, grabando dos sets fuertes para Muse (Doodlin' y Comin' Home, ambos con Joey a la trompeta) y ganando una reputación nacional propia. "Papa John" toca el órgano en un estilo contagioso de hard bop no muy diferente al de su hijo. En el siglo XXI firmó primero con Highnote y luego con su sello hermano Savant, donde publicó una serie de excelentes grabaciones que incluyen Hip Cake Walk en 2001, Jumpin' en 2003, Walking Uptown en 2004 y Desert Heat en 2006. Después de una pausa de grabación de cinco años, Papa John regresó con A Philadelphia Story en un escenario clásico de trío B-3 con John Jr.a la guitarra y el baterista Glenn Ferracone, con apariciones especiales de Joey y el tenor Joe Fortunato.
