Paul Thatcher Smith (April 17, 1922 - June 29, 2013) was an American jazz pianist. He performed in various genres of jazz, most typically bebop, but is best known as an accompanist of singers, especially Ella Fitzgerald. Smith was born in San Diego, California to parents, Lon Smith and Constance Farmer, who were vaudeville performers and encouraged his interest in music.
Lonnie Smith (born July 3, 1942), styled Dr. Lonnie Smith, is an American jazz Hammond B3 organist who was a member of the George Benson quartet in the 1960s. He recorded albums with saxophonist Lou Donaldson for Blue Note before being signed as a solo act. He owns the label Pilgrimage. He was born in Lackawanna, New York, into a family with a vocal group and radio program. Smith says that his mother was a major influence on him musically, as she introduced him to gospel, classical, and jazz music.
Paul Smith has partnered with David Bowie to mark the release of Bowie's 28th studio album, Blackstar. Whether it’s the minimalist sleeve design or the unexpected jazz influences on the record, Blackstar presents a snapshot of an artist in perpetual motion. The Paul Smith for David Bowie T-shirt offers another take on Jonathan Barnbrook’s minimalist artwork. Unlike every other Bowie album you won’t find a portrait of David on the cover - although he did find his way onto some of the posters (above). Instead, Barnbrook has worked with Bowie to boil down the emotional core of the album to its most simplistic visual form
Posed with the question, Who invented jazz album cover design? Most people will instantly say, Blue Note Records, and Reid Miles in particular. But this would be a gross simplification as well as inaccurate. Perhaps most ironic of all, given that Blue Note album sleeves have become the benchmark against which all modern jazz covers – and those of just about any other album – are measured, Miles was not a jazz fan, but a classical-music lover. Yet perhaps it was his distance from the music that was also his strength, allowing him to approach the design unencumbered by all but the basic details – the album title, the feel of the music, and something about the session. And of course, he had Francis Wolff’s brilliant photographs.
There is more than one musician with the name Paul Smith: 1. Paul Smith, the singer for the British indie rock group, Maxïmo Park. 2. Paul Smith ( 1922), also known as Paul T. Smith, a jazz pianist from San Diego, California. 3. Paul J. Smith (1906 - 1985) was an Academy Award-winning American music composer. 4. Paul Charles Smith, a Contemporary Christian Music performer and songwriter, best remembered for his early years with influential gospel group The Imperials.
