Biography by Jim O'Neal
Paul
Gayten, a seminal figure in New Orleans rhythm & blues, led a
varied career in the music business as a bandleader, producer, label
owner, and one-time overseer of the West Coast operation of Chess
Records. A nephew of blues-piano legend Little Brother Montgomery,
Gayten once led one of the top bands of New Orleans, but he gave up the
performing life in 1956 to turn his attention to production and
eventually to his own California-based Pzazz label (which featured Louis
Jordan, among others). Gayten wrote Larry Darnell's 1949 classic "For
You My Love" and recorded a few Top Ten hits of his own for Regal and
DeLuxe (1947-1950), some of them with vocalist Annie Laurie.

Biografía de Jim O'Neal
Paul
Gayten, figura fundamental del rhythm & blues de Nueva Orleans,
desarrolló una variada carrera en el mundo de la música como director de
orquesta, productor, propietario de un sello discográfico y, en una
ocasión, supervisor de las operaciones de la costa oeste de Chess
Records. Sobrino del legendario pianista de blues Little Brother
Montgomery, Gayten dirigió en su día una de las mejores bandas de Nueva
Orleans, pero en 1956 abandonó la actuación para dedicarse a la
producción y, finalmente, a su propio sello californiano Pzazz (en el
que actuaba Louis Jordan, entre otros). Gayten compuso el clásico de
Larry Darnell de 1949 "For You My Love" y grabó algunos éxitos propios
para Regal y DeLuxe (1947-1950), algunos de ellos con la vocalista Annie
Laurie.
