Another addition to the upcoming ATMOS recording of Michael Andrew and the Atomic Big Band. We spent the day at Eastern Sky Studios in Winter Springs recording 16 tracks of guitar and piano with Bobby Koelble on guitars and Bob Thornton on the Steinway grand. Michael Andrew and Bob Thornton did a few takes of the Gershwin song, “Embraceable You.” A tremendously successful day. Thanks to David Brown for his terrific studio and engineering.

The Charlotte County Jazz Society presented the John Allred Quartet in concert on October 14th. We were pleased to have so many AppleJazz artists on the stage. John Allred, Eddie Metz and Phil Flanigan have all recorded for AppleJazz and hopefully Per Danielsson will be added to that list soon. The concert ended with John Allred and Herb Bruce playing a couple of duets and dedicated these to John’s dad, Bill Allred. It was a delightful concert and first class in every way.

We are super excited about our new ATMOS recording. Drums and bass were recorded over two days for Michael Andrew and his Atomic Big Band on AppleJazz Records. More sessions coming for other instruments soon. Release will be later this year. Attending the session were Kendall Thomsen (recording engineer), Michael Andrew (vocalist), Veit Renn (ATMOS mixing engineer) Charlie Bertini (producer), and David Brown (owner of Eastern Sky Studios). Drummer Paul Parker and bassist Charlie Silva laid down the foundation for this exciting ATMOS record.

Charlie Bertini of AppleJazz Records was pleased to assist Kendall Thomsen (SPL LLC) for the onsite recording of the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra at the beautiful Steinmetz Hall in Orlando.

We are celebrating the life of international trombonist, band leader, contractor and recording artist Bill Allred. On February 1, 2024, Bill left us at age 87, but he showered us with a legacy of jazz music. A trombone jazzman since his high school days in the Quad Cities, he moved to Orlando to be in the Magic Kingdom Band for the opening of Disney World in 1971. His music world exploded after that, as he formed and led many jazz bands and toured jazz festivals worldwide.  His trombone playing was straight from the heart and as authentic as could be. A listener could tell in thirty seconds they were hearing Bill Allred’s incomparable style. He employed countless first-class musicians and every band he formed was one to be reckoned with. His reputation grew even more when he contracted an orchestra for Ray Charles. Ray liked the orchestra so much that he told his manager that whenever he came to Florida, he wanted Bill Allred to contract the musicians. In 1990, he formed Bill Allred’s Classic Jazz Band to tour the jazz festival circuit. Some fans of the band formed a fan club which grew to some 1,200 members. A key member of the band was his trombonist son, John Allred. These two men were astounding together and delighted listeners wherever they played. Bill made dozens of recordings with his many bands over the years and thankfully, we have these to listen to and to celebrate the rich musical legacy he has left us. Thanks for making our lives a little richer, Bill.
