(Vocal Jazz, Bop, Cool) Bob Dorough - Коллекция - 1956-2006 (13 альбомов) (w/ Sam Most, Bill Takas, Dave Frishberg), MP3, 320 kbps

Боб Дороу родился в Арканзасе (12.12.1923), но вырос в Техасе. Он играл в армейской группе во время Второй Мировой Войны, а после нее оптравился в Северный Техасский государственный университет, где он учился композиции и игре на фортепиано. Ближе к 1950м он переехал в Нью-Йорк, и стал играть на фортепиано в степ-студии на Таймс Сквер. Там его познакомили с боксером Шугаром Рэем Робинсоном, который тогда на время отлучился от бокса и занимался сведением танцев и песен для выступлений. Дороу был принят к нему на работу, а затем стал музыкальным руководителем шоу; выступления проходили по разным городам США а затем и по Европе.
Дороу покинул Робинсона в Париже и прожил там с 1954 по 1955 года, создавая в этот период записи с певцом Блоссомом Дири. Он вернулся в Соединенные Штаты и перебрался в Лос-Анжелес, где он стал выступать в различных концертах, включая промежуточную работу у комика Ленни Брюса. Дороу выпустил свой первый альбом «Devil May Care» в 1956 году. Она содержала версию композиции Чарли Паркера «Yardbird Suite», но с текстом Дороу.
Трубачу Майлзу Девису понравился этот альбом, поэтому, когда студия Columbia попросила Дэвиса записать рожденственскую песню в 1962 году, он попросил Дороу о помощи с текстами и вокалом. В результате получилась тактичная мелодия под названием «Blue Xmas», выпущенная в компиляции Jingle Bell Jazz. В то же время Дороу записал другую песню с Дэвисом, «Nothing Like Yоu», которая была выпущена лишь несколько лет спустя в конце альбома «Sorcerer», но сделал Дороу одним из тех нескольких музыкантов, которые стали вокалистами композиций Майлза Дэвиса.
«Comin’ Home Babe», написанная Дороу и другом басистом Беном Такером, попала в топ-40 и заработала две номинации на премию Грэмми.
Дороу несколько лет занимался партнерским продюсированием со Стью Шарфом. Они были очень хорошо известны за выпуск двух альбомов для фолковой группы «Spanky and Our Gang», для которой они добавили несколько джазовых аранжировок.
С помощью Такера, на Дороу в ранних 1970х обратил внимание рекламодатель Дэвид МакКолл, и попросил наложить таблицу умножения на музыку. Так родилась «Three Is a Magic Number», первая песня стиля «Schoolhouse Rock!». Дороу продолжал выступать с 1973 по 1985 год.

Bob Dorough (born December 12, 1923) is an American bebop and cool jazz pianist, composer and vocalese singer.
He worked with Miles Davis and Allen Ginsberg, and his adventurous style was an influence on Mose Allison, among other singers. He is perhaps best known as a voice and primary composer of many of the songs used in Schoolhouse Rock!, a series of educational animated shorts appearing on Saturday morning television in the 1970s and 1980s on ABC affiliates in the United States. Dorough composed, conducted and played much of the "Schoolhouse Rock!" music. He has released vocal jazz albums periodically over the last 50 years; his latest, Small Day Tomorrow, came out in 2006. He worked with Nellie McKay on her 2007 album, Obligatory Villagers as well as her 2009 release, Normal as Blueberry Pie - A Tribute to Doris Day.
