Chicks dig records
Girls and records! Chicks and music. The following collection of photos was inspired by our friends at Stupefaction who got us to thinkin’ that we’d also like to have a gallery of LP-lovin’ ladies with records and record players too. If you find one please send it in and we’ll add it here! (As most of these photos have been found or contributed without proper credit, if you know the photographer, model, rights holder or original source please let us know.)
Records make Stephanie smile. She makes us smile too!
The quintessential chick digs records!! Here’s pin-up queen Bettie Page dropping the needle on a stack of 45’s! We’re guessing it’s a swinging, hip-grinding, rump-rolling selection to get everyone in the mood.

“Mr. Swing” Harry “Sweets” Edison Verve Records I admit it. I love Sweets! Can’t get enough. Illustration by David Stone Martin. Here’s a classic Sweets Edison. This and the Verve album “The Swinger”, both recorded during the same 1958 session has tenor saxophonist Jimmy Forrest joining Edison in the quintet’s frontline while pianist Jimmy Jones, bassist Joe Benjamin, drummer Charlie Persip, and rhythm guitarist Freddie Greene make up the rhythm section. (You can get both LP’s on a single Verve CD.) Edison (who died of prostate cancer on July 27, 1999, at 83 years of age) was one of the acknowledged masters of swing trumpet. His trumpet was a recognizable voice in the Count Basie Orchestra from 1938 until it broke up in 1950. During that period, he was featured on many records, appeared in the 1944 short “Jammin’ the Blues” and gained his nickname “Sweets” (due to his tone) from Lester Young. In the 1950s, Edison toured with Jazz at the Philharmonic, settled in Los Angeles, and was well-featured both as a studio musician (most noticeably on Frank Sinatra records) and on jazz dates. He had several reunions with Count Basie in the 1960s and by the ’70s was often teamed with Eddie “Lockjaw” Davis; Edison also recorded an excellent duet album for Pablo with Oscar Peterson. One of the few swing trumpeters to be influenced by Dizzy Gillespie, Sweets led sessions through the years for Pacific Jazz, Verve, Roulette, Riverside, Vee-Jay, Liberty, Sue, Black Blue, Pablo, Storyville, and Candid among others. Although his playing faded during the 1980s and ’90s, Edison could still say more with one note than nearly anyone.
William Claxton, sharp shooter
The great photographer William Claxton passed away this week. His work captured most of the musical legends of the mid-Twentieth Century and appeared on many Pacific and Contemporary album covers. Working from the West Coast, he often brought his subjects out of the dark nightclubs they inhabited and into the California sun. For example, this very un-jazzlike shot of Sonny Rollins on “Way Out West” for Contemporary Records (1957) With Shelly Manne and Ray Brown.
Didn’t I blow your mind this time?
“Electric Music To Blow Your Mind By!!!” “A Pot Full of Psychedelic Pop by The Love Machine” On Design Records. (1968) An ordinary vintage organ groove sound with freaky electronics on top of it. For lovers of the Free Pop Electronic Concept and Animated Egg, this is a groovy collection of cheesey ’60s psychedelia loaded with over-the-top electronic effects and jazzy go-go freak-outs.
