China Boy

Gunhild Carling, Johan Blomé, their children Idun and Viggo, Nanna Carling, and others (2022)

This was posted on February 26, 2014, but the performance was on December 30, 2022. It was at Keystone Korner in Baltimore. As usual, Nanna was having the most fun. (She's one of the daughters of Gunhild's older brother Max Carling.) Viggo does a great job on drums. Unfortunately, I don't know who that is on clarinet. Whoever it is, he's great!

China Boy is a hot jazz standard.

Gunhild Carling and her Speakeasy (from a secret location somewhere in NorCal)

with Clint Baker, Riley Baker, Nathan Tokunaga, Viggo Carling Blomé , and Neil Fontano (2024)

This was live-streamed yesterday morning. Looks like Idun has gone back to UC Irvine. Nathan Tokunaga again, this time with his teacher, Clint Baker. The kid is so good! Neil Fontano, BTW, is also a great drummer.

Great performance of "Clarinet Marmalade" at 20:15. Incidentally, there's a great record of this by Wild Bill Davison and his Commodores. I'm sure I posted it some time in the past.

Gunhild Carling and her Speakeasy

from a secret location somewhere in NorCal, livestreamed Feb. 18, 2024

Excellent work from Nathan Tokunaga on clarinet and sax! This guy's only 17. We need to watch for this name in the future.

This video is Gunhild's usual mix of her own compositions, New Orleans jazz from the 1920s, and a little other jazz not so hot. The second song is "Sister Kate" ("I Wish that I Could Shimmy Like my Sister Kate"), followed by Idun Carling singing "Meet Me Where They Play the Blues."

Fidgety Feet

Eddie Condon and his Orchestra (1942)

I've posted a record of this tune before performed by the Dutch Swing College Orchestra. This one is also really good, if a bit scratchier. This is one of LaRocca and Shields' tunes from 1918. Not to be confused with Gershwin's song.

Carling Family Jazz Odyssey (album)

Carling Family (2024)

I assume it's 2024.

Songs:
1. King porter stomp
2. Black bottom stomp
3. Cannon ball blues
4. The chant
5. Buddy bolden’s blues
6. Save it pretty mama
7. ALAMEDA
8. I’LL BE A FRIEND WITH PLEASURE
9. HOOSIER SWEETHEART
10. THE JAZZ RECORDER
11. STARDUST

I'm going to assume that the people pictured are the musicians on the album. I'm also going to assume I can correctly recognize them. So Gunhild lying on the piano. Gerd (gunhild's sister) playing the piano. Viggo (Gunhild's son) on the banjo (because he's blonde and young). Aina (Gunhild's mother), also on banjo. Idun (Gunhild's daughter) on trombone. Max (Gunhild's older brother) on clarinet. Ulf (Gunhild's younger brother) on drums. I suspect Gunhild drew the album cover.

Dipper Mouth Blues

Max Kaminsky and his Jazz Band (1944)

Yet another record of King Oliver's Dipper Mouth Blues/Dippermouth Blues/Sugarfoot Stomp/Sugar Foot Stomp, this time with Max Kaminsky who also performed with the Lion's Jazz Band. No indication on the label of who the other musicians are.

It's traditional in performances of this tune, regardless of the title used, for someone to interrupt with "Oh play that thing!" That doesn't happen here. It also doesn't happen on Benny Goodman's record of "Sugarfoot Stomp." What's the deal guys? It's more fun with it than without it.

Still a great performance. There are other good performances of this tune that I may post in the future. I've already posted records of it by Benny Goodman, Muggsy Spanier, and the Bob Crosby band.

At the Jazz Band Ball

Carling's Darlings (2020, before Idun's birthday in August)

Look how young the kids look! This was made here in Northern California. If I've figured this out correctly, the Carlings came to NorCal in early 2020. They now split their time between touring the USA and Europe (though Idun, now 18, is apparently apparently a now a student at some university in SoCal). I suspect they've lived in Cupertino, perhaps on Miller Avenue. This is based on the titles of songs Gunhild has written ("Down on Miller Avenue" and "Cupertino Ragtime").

Gunhild Carling cornet
Pritish Budhrani age 16 clarinet
Idun Carling age 14 trombone
Viggo Carling age 12 drums
Manav Budhrani age 12 banjo
Cougar Karson age 15 euphonium
Johan Blomé (Gunhild's husband) guitar

Exactly Like You

Idun Carling, her mother Gunhild, her brother Viggo, and her father Johan (2021)

I’ve posted at least one Gunhild Carling video before, but today I’m concentrating on her daughter Idun. If I’ve figured this out correctly, Idun is still only about 18 years old. Like her mom, she sings, dances, and plays the trombone. Gunhild’s family are all multi-talented performers. That’s Idun’s brother Viggo on clarinet, and her dad on sax.

Carling’s kids use both their mother’s name, Carling, and their dad’s name, Blomé.

Idun is pronounced ee-dun.

"Exactly Like You" was written by McHugh and Fields in 1930.

Fidgety Feet

The Dutch Swing College Orchestra (1948)

The Dutch Swing College Band (on this record label, Dutch Swing College Orchestra) was one of the great hot bands. I should have posted something by them before now. Apparently they're still around, though not with the same personnel as in 1948. "Fidgety Feet" is one of several hot music standards by LaRocca and Shields. This tune was written no later than 1918. All the hot bands performed it: Kid Ory, Red Allen, Wingy Manone, Bud Freeman, etc.

Jazz Me Blues

Gunhild, Nanna, Petronella, and Linnea Carling (in Italy)

OMG! I just discovered Gunhild (seen here on trumpet) yesterday. She's amazing. She's Swedish, and, apparently, better known as a trombone player. She came here to Northern California just in time for the pandemic. Not the best time to start a career in a new country.

"Jazz Me Blues" is a jot music standard. I posted a record of it from 1945 by Wild Bill Davison and his Commodores, This tune was written by Tom Delaney in 1920. All the great tunes come from the 1920s.
