Jutta Hipp With Zoot Sims – Blue Note 1530
by Marc Davis
The title is Jutta Hipp With Zoot Sims, but it should be the other way around. No knock on Jutta Hipp. She's great--a lively, fluid pianist who really could have been a big player in the 1950s bop scene if she hadn't suddenly disappeared and dropped out, forever. This is her date--a 1956 recording ...
Jutta Hipp at the Hickory House, Vol. 2 – Blue Note 1516
by Marc Davis
Raise your hand if you've never heard of Jutta Hipp. Yeah, me either. And yet, there she is, brooding and shadowy on the cover of her first Blue Note album. Yes, she--a female rarity in the almost-all-male world of 1950s Blue Note. And not American, either. Like Becks and Volkswagen, Jutta Hipp is a ...
Milt Jackson and the Thelonious Monk Quintet
by Marc Davis
And now, a crossroads: At what price do I pass? It's the dilemma all collectors face eventually. At first, you buy the commons. A used CD at $4 is a no-brainer. A new CD at $10 or $12, easy to justify. But what do you do when the easies are gone and the price ...
My Blue Note Obsession: A Ridiculous Quest Begins
by Marc Davis
Two years ago, I bought 31 Agatha Christie novels--all at once. Then I wanted more. It didn't seem nutty at the time. My local library sells used books. One day I was in the store and there they were: a set of blue-covered, leatherette books. It was the Agatha Christie Mystery Collection by Bantam ...

Jutta Hipp: Lost Tapes: The German Recordings 1952-1955
by Dan McClenaghan
German-born pianist Jutta Hipp (1925-2003) was enticed to travel to New York in 1955 by jazz writer/historian Leonard Feather. She was signed by Alfred Lion to Blue Note Records where she very quickly--within an eight month period--recorded three albums for the label: At the Hickory House, Vol. 1 (1955); At the Hickory House, Vol. 2, and ...
Jutta Hipp: The Inside Story
Last week I posted on German pianist Jutta Hipp, who recorded in the 1950s before disappearing from the jazz scene. I also mentioned that Katja von Schuttenbach—a jazz historian and journalist —had researched and written about Hipp. I sent Katja a handful of questions and she kindly responded. Here's our e-conversation: JazzWax: Jutta Hipp seems like ...
Jutta Hipp in Germany: 1952-'55
Jutta Hipp is another forgotten '50s jazz pianist with an odd past. She recorded briefly but gave up on jazz in 1956 for reasons that remain mysterious. The German-born Hipp spent her teens under Nazi rule and performed in Germany after the war. She recorded in Germany sporadically from 1952 to '55, and a year later ...
