James Last op TV - - E a s t e r _ w e e k e n d - -

Saturday, 30 March 2024, 23:15 to 00:15 - NDR3 (= German television)

James Last - Mit Happy Music um die Welt

He was a bandleader, composer, arranger, inventor of the unmistakable "Happy Sound", a gentleman and world star: James Last. He was regarded as the best German jazz bassist in the 1950s, party king in the 1970s and orchestra leader legend in the 2000s.

James Last has worked with stars such as Caterina Valente, Freddy Quinn, Wencke Myhre and Katja Ebstein, but also with the hip-hop band Fettes Brot and was discovered by Hollywood director Quentin Tarantino for the soundtrack of "Kill Bill". More than 80 million records sold, worldwide concert tours, film soundtracks from "Traumschiff" to "Warum Männer nicht zuhören und Frauen schlecht einparken": James Last's big band sound is and remains unmistakable and immortal.

The unmistakable James Last sound

In the 1950s, James "Hansi" Last studied the bass and tuba and worked in the radio orchestra at the then NWDR, among others. His big moment came in 1965 when he signed a contract with the Polydor label and created a new sound with the records in the "Non Stop Dancing" series: the party sound of the generation of the time. Whether in Germany or Canada, in Australia or South Africa, in China, the Netherlands or Great Britain: The swinging "Happy Sound" became an international trademark. James Last owed his success not only to his studio productions, but above all to his more than 2,000 live performances all over the world. The music of the Hamburg native by choice became one of the most important exports of the German entertainment industry.

Great hits and unknown recordings

This film tells the story of the exceptional artist, his music and his life between Hamburg and his second home in Florida. The great hits of the composer James Last can be seen and heard as well as unknown recordings from the USA, archive treasures and previously unreleased material from his last tours.

In addition to his second wife Christine, his son Ron and his doctor and manager Bodo Eckmann, many friends and companions have their say, including singers Wencke Myhre and Katja Ebstein, comedian Olli Dittrich, Fettes Brot, director Leander Haußmann and Udo Lindenberg. The latter said of him: "James Last was a star, easy, casual: the godfather of good humour."

James Last on TV - - E a s t e r _ w e e k e n d - -

Sunday, 31 March 2024, 00:15 to 00:45 - NDR3 (= German television)
Rebroadcast on the night of Friday to Saturday, 13 April 2024, 00:00 to 00:30

He is regarded as the inventor of the so-called Happy Sound: music legend and composer James "Hansi" Last (1929 - 2015). His career began with a lifetime position in the NDR Orchestra (1955). But the Bremen native wanted more: in 1964, freedom beckoned with his own recording contract. "Nonstop Dancing" is not only the name of his first album, it is also the motto of his fan base, and the "Last Sound" finds its way into almost every party room. In order to conquer an international audience, he now calls himself James. A star is born! His records sell millions of copies, his melodies make numerous feature films and TV series unmistakable, his sold-out tours take him and his orchestra through all five continents.

Musician of superlatives
James Last is a musician of superlatives: he performs 90 times at the venerable Royal Albert Hall in London, while the British audience chants Hansi rather than James. He gives over 2,500 concerts worldwide and is honoured with 17 platinum and 208 gold records.

He was married to his first wife Waltraud for 43 years and lived with her in Hamburg and Florida. After her death, he regained his zest for life and creativity with his second wife Christine and experienced 16 happy years with her. The successful bandleader is still on stage in 2015 at the age of 86 and gives his final "Last" concert in Cologne. In the same year, he died in Florida and was buried in Hamburg.

James Last would have turned 95 on 17 April 2024. To mark the occasion, NDR is dedicating a programme to the king of "easy listening" with the best talk show moments, including Reinhold Beckmann, Margarete Schreinemakers, Barbara Schöneberger and Hubertus Meyer-Burckhardt.

Mat Clasen - The Saxophone Stand-up 1 Man Live Show

Dear friends,
after so many years as an orchestra and band member, including with Hansi, I am now on the road with my own show. It's a mixture of concert, music cabaret, stand-up comedy and poetry slam. Of course, the venues are a bit smaller than Hansi's 😃 but I really enjoy it!
I'm playing on 24 November in Hanover, on 5 December in Hamburg, on 7 December in Schwerin and on 8 December in my new home, Wendland / Lüchow-Dannenberg.
Come and see me, I'm looking forward to it!

After 40 years, new music from ABBA was presented to the world. No one would have ever believed it: the resurrection of the Swedish group, with two beautiful songs as an introduction to a new full album! Generations of ABBA fans worldwide are super happy.
In 1974 ABBA appeared on the ZDF Starparade as the winner of the Eurosong Contest. This is where Hansi had his first meeting with them. On 11 November 1982 they would meet again at the last Show Express. In 2001 "James Last plays ABBA" was released.
Despite the efforts of the JAMES LAST TEAM on social media etc. since June 1st, after question only one big desire remains for the JAMES LAST-FANS: to welcome NEW MUSIC by James Last on CD and streaming services.
It's well known that there are still "treasures" in the archives which never saw the light of day. Moreover, there are still many original albums that can be digitised.
Maybe this autumn UNIVERSAL MUSIC can be urged to finally realise something interesting again!
So for the fans, there is still a lot to dream about!

JLBC Website moved

Dear Friends,
The hosting service where we placed our website has nearly doubled its prices in the last two years . There were all kinds of extra services, storage space, etc. offered, but we do not need all of that.

That is why 'your' website has recently been transferred to a new hosting company.

The preparation took several months and of course we have already checked things, but maybe something has escaped our attention …
If you notice something , please let us know quickly -> Marc
Thank you for your help!

We apologize for the inconvenience, but this 'move' was necessary to keep 'your' JLBC club financially healthy.

Marc & Johan

2020-04-28 19:59:30

The JLBC website will soon be hosted by a new web host.
This can lead to (short?) Interruptions.


We apologize for the inconvenience.

Olav Holmquist died on COVID19

Hey Jan,
Hope everybody is doing well! Nice pic on Facebook!

Some sad news arrived a couple of days ago.
You probably already know but Ole Holmquist has passed away.
A full life led well has come to an end.
Lots of wonderful memories in my head. Music, golf, salmon, friendship.
A great musician with a great tone. Personally I am of course thankful for his wonderful lead on Piece #1!
The heavenly Band is getting stronger!

If you want please pass this bit of news on to dad's fans. Thanks!

Hopefully better news next time!

Have a great day, and everybody stay heathy!

Cheers,

Ron Last


Again we have sad news to report. Yesterday, March 26th, trombonist Olle Holmquist passed away. He was born in the Swedish Skellefteå in November 1936 as Bert Olav Holmquist. Olle suffered from Alzheimer's disease, and lived in a nursing home with COVID19 infections. Last Saturday, Ollle's wife was told that he too had been infected, with the unfortunate consequence that he too succumbed to the disease.
Olle has been active in the European music scene since the 1960s and started as a 'self-taught' first on the tuba, then switched to the valve trombone, and later on to sliding trombone. As James Last fans we often witnessed the fact that he was a grandmaster on the sliding trombone. Starting out as a freelance musician, he managed to get a job with the Swedish Radio Bigband in 1963, but continued freelancing in the 1960s. During this period he often worked with Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson, who we know from ABBA.
Olle also worked regularly with Quincy Jones. In 1971 Holmquist joined the Swiss Radio big band, and in 1976 moved to Berlin as a member of the RIAS Bigband. Over the years, he has toured and recorded with many other acts, such as Kai Warner, Freddy Quinn, Jerry Lewis, Manhattan Transfer and Lill Lindfors.
In 1978 he then joined the James Last Orchestra, a position he would hold until the 2013 "Einmal Noch" tour.
He was an affable and kind man, always ready to chat with the fans. Rest in peace Olav!
As a tribute, this beautiful solo in "Music".

NORMA BOOSEY PASSED AWAY

Via a message from Simon Bell this evening, we heard that Norma Ashton, the widow of Peter Boosey, passed away yesterday after a short illness. The news came unexpectedly and shocked us. Our condoleances go to the friends of the James Last Appreciation Society, and to the family of Norma, which we also wish a lot of strength. RIP Norma.

Jean Van Mulken died

The news is not yet officially confirmed to us, but we heard from various sources and with regret that our good friend Jean Van Mulken passed away. Jean was already a member of our club in the early years, he was a die-hard Lastfan. In recent years he almost wore t-shirts of James Last wherever he went. Last year I drove together with him to the party of the German Last Fans in Eschweiler. There he was allowed to play with the guest band, "Die Kaafsäck" (photo). Jean was in fact an avid drummer. We will miss him! RIP dear Jean - Jan Demin

Peter Boosey passed away

It's with great sadness that we must report the death of Peter Boosey, who led the Worldwide James Last Appreciation Society with great success since 1974.
On April 18th 1989, during a fanparty in Bremen to celebrate Hansi's 60th birthday, the JLAS fraternized with our James Last Benelux Club. Since that day our fanclubs were close, and we worked together on several occasions.
There are so many beautiful memories attached to Peter, too many to mention here.
With Peter the world of James Last loses once again someone so important. We will miss our sympathetic friend, always friendly, very witty, funny, and often ready for an honest opinion.
Our thoughts now go to his wife Norma, children and grandchildren. We wish them much strength.
R.I.P. dear Peter.

BENNY BENDORFF PASSED AWAY

Today via Simon Bell we heard the sad news that once again a good friend from the James Last Orchestra is deceased, namely bass player Benny Bendorff.
He was born in Hamburg in August 1946 as Joachim Leis-Bendorff. Like his ancestors he was called to tradition "Benny".
In 1969 he was asked by Hansi for his special rock album "Hair", because Benny was good in improvising. A little later he was asked for the first Canada Tour in 1969 ... and so he continued as a fixed value in the orchestra until 2002.
In this way Benny remains as one of the great figureheads of the James Last Band. When we spoke to him in July in Hamburg, he said he already recovered three years from throat cancer.
RIP dear Benny

fotoNew compilation (14/4/2016): Ich find' Schlager toll

Compilation: JLBC

Op 15 april 2016 verschijnt een nieuwe compilatie-cd van James Last binnen de low-budgetreeks 'Ich Find' Schlager Toll'. Voor de samenstelling kwam Universal Music in Berlijn opnieuw aankloppen bij de James Last Benelux Club. In de plaats van ons idee met een mix van instrumentale Schlagers en Sing Mit, gaven zij de voorkeur aan een mix van Sing Mit en Non Stop Dancing.
Het is misschien niet meteen een album waar wij, fans in de Nederlanden op zitten te wachten. Maar het sfeertje is leuk en natuurlijk typisch James Last. Op twee medleys uit Superlast na, is trouwens alles nieuw op cd! Momenteel is het enkel nog wachten op de lay-out én op de 15 april.

JAMES LAST BIDS THE STAGE ADIEU: "NON STOP MUSIC JAMES LAST IN CONCERT 2015" TO BE HIS FAREWELL TOUR

05.02.2015
James Last will set off on his final tour on 22 March 2015. After giving it much thought, this popular, world-famous conductor decided that "Non Stop Music" would definitely be his final tour. His serious illness, which took a lifethreatening turn last September, forced him to face the fact he, too, a man full of plans, needs to not just slow down but give up his life on tour altogether.
It is a decision that Last, 85, regrets very much. Nevertheless this tour, which has been a long time in the making and also marks his 90th concert in the Royal Albert Hall, will give him a welcome opportunity to bid farewell to his fans.
Then, on 26 April 2015 in Cologne's LANXESS arena, the last stop on the "Non Stop Music" tour will bring an end to his enormously successful, unique, nearly
50-year career on tour.
Thus will end an era of German music history, the story of a man whose ingenious idea – that of taking music from every genre, lending it his own personal touch and creating an entirely new sound – touched and delighted millions of music lovers all around the world. A man who turned his concerts into events that continuously attracted an audience spanning multiple generations.
James Last: "The concert itself won't be centred around my farewell. The only important thing will be that my fans, my friends and I all have a good time and can enjoy a fantastic concert."

Derek Watkins passed away! ( 02/03/1945-22/03/2013 - 68 years)

This is a very sad day for the world of James Last.
We shared so many beautiful moments with Derek when he played for us at concerts.
He surely will live on through the many brilliant trumpet solo's on our James Last albums.
Our thoughts go now to his wife Wendy, his children and grandchildren.
Dear Derek with your famous smile, we will miss you!

A few members informed us about a (corrupt) website that is offering tickets for 2012/2013.
Our inquiry with the James Last management and Semmel Concerts brought the follwing answer :
"Das ist schlichtweg falsch: diese Tournee gibt es nicht. "

Message from Wendy, the wife of Derek Watkins:

" Hello Friends

I am selling two Irish Crystal glasses from 1984 when Hansi went to Ireland. The musicians were given these crystal wine glasses as a momento, and I am now selling them with all the money going to Save the Children Charity. Perhaps some of your members might be interested?

Here is the link:
2 x Irish crystal wine glasses - James Last souvenirs

The price is set at Sterling-£120 for both the glasses together. I did not want to auction them as I might not achieve a good price as they are such a specialist item.
Thank you for your help

Barry was a drummer with The Checkmates, Ferris Wheel, and Blossom Toes in the 1960s, but is more noted for his work with The James Last Orchestra, where he was both drummer & percussionist, and indeed with Madeline.
In addition to his playing Barry also co-wrote many songs with James Last.

James Last In Los Angeles -- The Legendary 1975 Record Plant Studio Sessions (aka Well Kept Secret)
James Last
Around March 28, 2008

CD (Item 472528) 1975 -- Condition: New Copy
James Last gets a bit hip and funky for the 70s -- working here with Wes Farrell production and arrangements, in a weird electric groove that's got some nice soundtracky touches! The overall style's very different than Last's usual brassy and bouncey records -- almost laidback at times, with some great keyboards that really changes the mood of the set. The album was recorded in LA, and has a nice slich smooth studio feel that's really great. Includes the great mellow groover "I Can't Move No Mountains", plus "Love For Sale", "Question", "Theme From Prisoner Of Second Avenue", "Jubilation", and "Summertime".

LP (!): In Los Angeles-the Legendary 1975 Record Plant Studio Sessions [Vinyl LP]
