Background notes
Archive material and source history
The Vanderbilt Band was a jazz group led by pianist and composer Erroll Garner. They formed in 1946 and recorded their debut album 'Early Autumn' in 1949. The band is best remembered for the song 'Misty,' which was written by Johnny Burke and Garner and recorded in 1954.
'Misty' became a jazz standard covered by many artists, including Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald. The band's lineup included saxophonists Charlie Parker and John Coltrane, bassist Oscar Pettiford, and drummer Kenny Clarke, though membership changed over time.
Garner's personality and behavior sometimes created difficulties with record labels and other musicians. The band's activity was inconsistent, but they released several albums in the mid-1950s, including 'Contrasts' and 'Erroll Garner at the Vanguard.'
