Spike Hughes: “Meet the Duke!” (1933)

View through CrossRef
Abstract The following article appeared in London’s Daily Herald on the eve of Ellington’s arrival in England. In it, Spike Hughes asserted that while Americans viewed Ellington as “just the successful leader of a successful band,” Europeans had discovered him as “the first genuine composer of Jazz.” Earlier selections in this volume by R. D. Darrell, Abbe Niles, and Janet Mabie counter that claim. Yet Hughes’s effort to sepa rate Ellington’s importance as a composer from his popularity as a performer-as though the two were mutually exclusive-underlines a recurring theme in Ellington criticism.
