"The first time Blue Note founder Alfred Lion ever assembled a band in the recording studio, he chose to call them the Port of Harlem Jazzmen. It was April 7, 1939, and Lion had decided to establish his own record label (named for “blue notes,” the microtonally lowered third, seventh, or fifth degrees of the diatonic scale) after cutting 19 sides by pianists Albert Ammons and Meade “Lux” Lewis three months earlier, on January 6. Blue Note’s first studio ensemble consisted of trumpeter Frankie Newton (who Lion had first heard performing at a skating rink in Berlin with Sam Wooding’s Chocolate Kiddies in 1925), trombonist J.C. Higginbotham, pianist Albert Ammons, guitarist Teddy Bunn, bassist Johnny Williams, and drummer Sidney Catlett. “Mighty Blues” and “Rocking the Blues” were released as Blue Note 3, while “Port of Harlem Blues” was released later on Blue Note 14. Two titles from the April 7 session were played by a slightly reduced combination and eventually issued to the public as Blue Note 501; “Daybreak Blues” was presented as by the Frankie Newton Quintet and “Weary Land Blues” as by the J.C. Higginbotham Quintet."
