Erika Lewis and Tuba Skinny - two songs including "Gotta Give Me Some"

[axisares]

My first girlfriend's name was Erika. She was exotic, but she couldn't sing like this. I think I just fell in love for the first time again.

what is this music called.. ive always loved it but can not figure out how to look for it

[smartandsane]

joe I think that is a cornet and not a trumpet and that's the cutest cornet player in the world! correct me if im wrong

[MyJbriggs]

Shaye's cornet, Erika's singing, the tuba chords, the melancholy trombone... Nothing is superfluous. They're good.

I have made a note in my diary to visit the Royal Street to listen to them when i am in New Orleans.

Thanks for posting this! Mechiya was/is my idea of a perfect jazz singer - and now I'm finding Erika here on YouTube...and she ain't no slouch neither! I can't quite tell from the video, but didn't Alynda sing a mean "Gotta Get Me Some" with the Loose Marbles? (I can listen to her on that recording over and over again - the style is impeccable!!)

It's great to see Kiowa again - met him in NYC where he was playing with the Marbles - another great voice/talent.

Thnx for bringing it here!

Thanks for your comments. Erika and Tuba Skinny are great. All the muscians in the group are a pleasure to hear. Have you purchased their ablums...
