Johnny Letman (1917-1992) was a trumpeter and singer in the traditional- mainstream vein, who had been on the scene for quite a long time, playing with such bandleaders as Lucky Millinder and Cab Calloway, before rising to prominence in the late 50s. But his lack of recognition (on records, at least) had not been—like the fate of some other mainstreamers—a matter of simply being forgotten. Letman never was known to any extent until 1958, when he started working out of the Metropole in New York City.Tracklist:
His big, fat, walloping trumpet style drew from the Louis Armstrong-Roy Eldridge line, whereas his attack ranged from the crisply crackling to the exuberantly flamboyant. The high quality of this set is established by the outgoing musical personalities of Letman and pianist Dick Wellstood, as well as by guitarist Kenny Burrell’s willingness and ability to match their extroversion note for note.
"Even experts on jazz history may not be that acquainted with Johnny Letman (1917-1992). An excellent swing trumpeter who also had a bit of New Orleans in his style, he worked with many big bands in the 1930s, ‘40s and ‘50s including those of Horace Henderson, Lucky Millinder, Cab Calloway and Count Basie (1951). In later years he played with such notables as Stuff Smith, Chubby Jackson, Wilbur DeParis, Claude Hopkins, Eddie Condon, Lionel Hampton and, Earl Hines. But despite his abilities, Letman never achieved much fame.
Other than recording enough material to fill up two albums on two days in 1968 with a quintet that included guitarist Tiny Grimes and tenor-saxophonist Hal Singer, Letman only led 1 1/2 albums in his career, all of which is included on the single CD The Four Faces Of Johnny. Four titles from 1959 are from a Various Artists album with Letman leading a quartet that also includes pianist Dick Wellstood, bassist Gene Ramey and drummer Panama Francis. Most of the CD is comprised of the 1960 album The Many Angles Of Johnny Letman, a quintet date with Wellstood, Francis, guitarist Kenny Burrell, and bassist Peck Morrison.
The first two numbers from the latter, an inspired transformation of the King Oliver-associated “Mabel’s Dream” into a medium-slow swing piece and Wellstood’s “Tina,” has Letman sounding remarkably similar to Roy Eldridge, really capturing his crackling sound and competitive style. Letman, who also takes five good-time vocals (including “This Time The Drinks On Me”), shows more individuality on the other numbers, none of which are warhorses. He holds his own with the always-brilliant Wellstood and Burrell, and shows throughout this release that he deserves to be rediscovered."
