Hey, everyone. Tell me about Hugh Jass.

As I recall he got on very well with his pianist Mike Hunt.

Has this got anything to do w/ fucking Wagner's ring?

― Frogm@n Henry, Wednesday, 25 May 2005 10:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Hugh Jass never seemed to be able to play his butt off, hard as he tried.

― Amon (eman), Wednesday, 25 May 2005 10:55 (twenty-one years ago)

I prefer the Dutch virtuoso Hans Onderkock.

"As I recall he got on very well with his pianist Mike Hunt."

Mike Hunt was never as talented as his brother Isaac.

But it was as back up for the famous soprano Amanda Hugnkyss that he really reached a wider audience.

― Kv_nol (Kv_nol), Wednesday, 25 May 2005 11:08 (twenty-one years ago)

He did a drag show for a few years too under the name Anita Mandelay.

― diedre mousedropping and a quarter (Dave225), Wednesday, 25 May 2005 11:14 (twenty-one years ago)

he did a show in Moscow with russian diva Ivana Tinkel and her husband Oliver Klozoff

― John Cocktolstoy, Wednesday, 25 May 2005 11:41 (twenty-one years ago)

And don't forget the chinese cellist virtuosos Long Wang and Hung Well

― bujer, Wednesday, 25 May 2005 13:22 (twenty-one years ago)

I prefer the early work he did with Ben Dover.

― kornrulez6969 (TCBeing), Wednesday, 25 May 2005 14:17 (twenty-one years ago)

You mean the stuff produced by Hugh Jorgan?

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Wednesday, 25 May 2005 14:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Where is the love for Chris Peacock?

― NickB (NickB), Wednesday, 25 May 2005 14:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Well, he was certainly no Man With Oversized Sex Organs.

― Huk-L, Wednesday, 25 May 2005 14:21 (twenty-one years ago)

I love that work he did with Dusty Minge.

MORE BEN DOVER PLEASE

Oddly, he never worked with Johnny "Spread 'em Wide" Miller.

― diedre mousedropping and a quarter (Dave225), Wednesday, 25 May 2005 16:15 (twenty-one years ago)

No but he did collaborate with Craven Morehead.

― darin (darin), Wednesday, 25 May 2005 17:12 (twenty-one years ago)

Don't overlook the influence of I.P. Freely on Hugh Jass.

I think this thread was already started by ILM poster Haywood Jablomy.

he wrote "Grazin' in the Grass," right?

― ken taylrr (ken taylrr), Wednesday, 25 May 2005 21:49 (twenty-one years ago)

In my high school jazz class, some kid asked the teacher one day if he'd ever heard of a saxophone player named "Paul Queef." I almost wet myself.

― PB, Wednesday, 25 May 2005 22:26 (twenty-one years ago)

I understand he's gone into the studio with Harry Balles?

the Seymore Butts/Hugh Jass collaboration in '73 was a cracking good time

Hugh Jass made very little money in his early career, but gained pop fame when he guest-starred on two grammy-winning albums by pianist-singer-songwriter Barry McOckinhugh.

― A-ron Hubbard (Hurting), Monday, 6 November 2006 20:28 (nineteen years ago)

He might've been a child star, but he hooked up with Pat Ophelia, which turned out to be quite a mistake.
