Jazz's Eubie Blake leaves ragtime legacy
By KATIE MILLER
Staff Reporter
Eubie Blake, lost of the ragtime era's great composers, died at his Brooklyn home Saturday, five days after his 100th birthday.
"It's a tremendous loss," said Dick Witty, associate professor of music history. "He's the man who's carried the rain from its beginnings, the raw figure in the curfew."
make Blake's name familiar, Wright said.
"HIS LEGACY to music is the longevity in a man who was able to keep things going and keep his music strong." Wright said. "He stuck by his guns."
Wright said Blake recorded little of his own music.
"He was never considered a great pianist, he said." "He's probably better known for having written the black musical, 'Shuffle Along.'"
"Shuffle Along." Blake's first Broadway musical, premiered in 1928.
"One of the most important things about Eubie is that he was one of the stocks' successfully Broadway stars, and associate professor of speech and drama and associate
leader of the Chuck Berg Band, a local jazz band.
"I remember seeing Eube in concert at Carnegie Hall for the Newport Jazz Festival, and the sparkling effervence of his personality bubbles through his music," Berg said. "His music is fuzzy, champagne quality to them."
"We play some of his songs in his band," said Gray. "I've always been a prodigy."
"Paul Gray, leader and trumpet player for Paul Gray and the Gaslight Gang, a late jazz band, said that he told Blake had written many great songs.
Gray said that Blake had a big effect on American music because he had been around so long.
Gray said that the Broadway musical, "Eubie," which featured Blake's compositions, helped in Blake's revival.
BLAKE'S MANAGER, Elliot Hosman, said the funeral would be private, but a memorial service was scheduled for later this week at St. Peter's Church in Manhattan, where he celebrated his 100th birthday Few 7.
He was born James Hubert Blake in Baltimore on Feb. 7, 1833, the son of former slaves. Blake was musically inclined from early childhood and began playing ragtime at the age of 12.
Charlton Heston reigns at Mardi Gras carnival
Bv United Press International
NEW ORLEANS — Actor Charlton Heston added the Roman god of wine and revelry in the list of roles last night, reigning as Bacchus with a supporting cast of thousands of carnival revelers.
"I've played prophets and presidents and emperors," the actor said before setting on a ride through
the city to fling trinkets and shimmering doubloons to out-streeted hands. "But I've never played a god before."
ARMIES OF boisterous Mardi Gras celebrants took the streets under sunny skies to pay homage to the pagan gods of Carnival — climaxing in the night parade of Bacchus. The parade was the grand finale of a weekend of 20 parades that rolled through the city.

Love is like magic and it always will be, for love still remains life's sweet mystery. Love works in ways that are wonderful and strange but there's nothing in them that won't make you want to most commonplace into beauty and splendor and sweetness and grace! Love is unnatural, underestimated, unfamiliar and its mind! Love is the answer that everyone sees when they hear a poem or a song can't be beamed, it is priceless and free. Love like pure magic is a sweet mystery! The Mysterious

When it all started I was out of my head. You came to St. Louis to see The Dead. Then it came up to me. He asked, "What would you do if all the good times couldn't just end. We ended up with many long talks. All of the parties, all of the walks. And being with you in Madison made me happiest. Now it's Valentine's day. This is for you. The past six have been great."
Winger. New York we fine. We'll celebrate with wine,
but at this time Will you be happy? Honey Vodka
