Bob Rawlins has assembled a sextet, Hot Marmalade, for the February concert in Haddonfield. It’s a great line-up, with Bob Rawlins, Danny Tobias, Pat Mercuri, Nancy Rawlins, Bruce Campbell, andJim Lawlor. This lineup is a first for Tri-State and the members are all known for terrific talent – playing together in other bands like the Midiri Sextet and the annual Tri-State All-Stars concert. (The photo, with half the marmalade jar, is from an All-Stars Jam in 2019.) With the skill and musical knowledge on stage, we can expect an outstanding afternoon; the repertoire could span from earliest jazz, through the pop tunes of the era (Gershwin, Berlin, Arlen) right up to Swing!
And a special treat is in store. Thanks to Haddonfield United Methodist Church (and particularly Matt Smith, Organist and Choirmaster) we may have the unique opportunity to hear a couple Thomas 'Fats' Waller songs, performed as pipe-organ soloes, played by band-member Nancy Rawlins (Rowan University music faculty)! This has a huge local historical connection - it echoes, in part, Waller's 1927 recording sessions for Victor Talking Machine, at the Espey pipe organ in the Trinity Church studio. Trinity Church was in downtown Camden not far from the company's main offices. Headquarters (of what became RCA - known even today as the 'Nipper' building) still stands, though Trinity Church is no more.
