Biography
Trombonist Ike Rodgers was dynamic in St. Louis through the 1920s and early ‘30s, regularly going to Chicago, Richmond, IN, or Grafton, WI to create records, usually along with his friend, the barrelhouse pianist Henry Dark brown. Rodgers mainly plants through to blues recordings produced through the years 1929-1934. His presumed existence on Ma Rainey’s “Dark Bottom” program in Dec 1927 is difficult to verify; if Ike is at the studio room, he was standing up set for the singer’s regular slide horn operator, Al Wynn. ON, MAY 7, 1929, Rodgers and Dark brown supported vocalist Mary Johnson on a set of edges for the Brunswick label. Two times later on, the trombonist produced his only documenting as a innovator. “Malt Can Blues,” by Ike Rodgers & His Biddle Road Boys, premiered because the flipside of Brown’s “Stomp ‘Em Right down to the Bricks,” both recordings offering commentary by guitarist Lawrence Casey. On August 16, 1929, Rodgers documented eight game titles with Dark brown and streetwise blues vocalist Alice Moore. Rodgers teamed up with cornetist Baby “Jay” Wayne and pianist Roosevelt Sykes on Sept 7, 1929, to get vocalists Edith North Johnson and Blind Teddy Darby. Upon this auspicious event, Johnson spontaneously made up a blues she known as “The Honeydripper,” and following the record was slice, she bestowed the name on Sykes as his fresh nickname. A variant of the song will be utilized as Sykes’ theme tune for another 50 years, and it’s really worthy of noting that Ike Rodgers performed his horn on the initial. Rodgers lower some more edges with Dark brown and Mary Johnson in November of 1929 and in Feb of the next season. His last two known documenting sessions occurred on August 18 and 24, 1934, with Mary Johnson, Alice Moore, Arthur “Artwork” McKay, Tecumseh “Tee” MacDonald (who was simply occasionally billed as Dolly Martin), along with a hot little music group billed as Peetie Wheatstraw & His Blue Blowers.
