@lovethediscogirls They did remake Route 66 in 1993, with Dan Cortese & Jeremy London. but no, didn't cook at all like the original.

wadeharris65 tells only the analytical side of the story. Blues is a feeling, number one. To communicate a feeling is the very essential, substantial part of jazz and blues. The analytical elements can be added to that, but those are ornamentations. Without the foundation of an emotional connecti...

Beautiful! I love the lilt of Turkish music, and this girl is very good. I think Momma should have let her finish the song. I don't need a translation... the feeling is there!!

This is not jazz, but it is interesting how many folk forms in the Balkans have many similarities to jazz--- especially the clarinet styles, using a much broader pallet of timbres and nuances than "classical". Perry is the supreme exponent of these clarinet characteristics in the west.

"Louise", a Cecil Taylor piece from this same session, is a much better example of Lacy's style of soloing. I use it as an example of patient phrase-building for my students.

"Acid rock" is a perfectly accurate label for music that we, the folks listening it, enjoyed with the augmentation of psychedelics. And some still do, gawd luv 'em! it may not be what the creators of the music intended, but hell, some of these tunes just worked so wunderfly that way. On the other...

THE BO DIDDLEY SONG is not this song. it just has the same name. Stevie Winwood wrote this song.

Bert is a Scot, not a Brit. and has been one of my favorite musicians since 1968. Thanks for the posting.

This is a fine version, Frankie really feels it. but I do prefer Belafonte's rendition, it tears me up every time.

Are these Husnu and/or Mustafa? who is playing the clarinet?

reality is not the [point.}

what's funny is, one of the reasons Al Kooper was fired from the band is that they felt he was not a strong enough singer. Beats the HELL out of this guy.

oh yeah, I love to hear the TUNE in the Drum solo! who is that guy? it looks like Gary Brooker is the only original member here.

having influences and being derivative are entirely different things. Beefheart was the Stravinsky of rock. And there are plenty of successful folks that are not EVEN clever at being derivative. but Zappa should be praised for his satire. he was one of the great ones in that bag.

this IS the great concept of avant garde clarinet........ Perry is the standard- bearer of what it is....... how to do it.... no person outside of this fierce place..... can ever get IT

this Warne Marsh tune is a nice fit for Braxtons' style - the cut that Warne did with Lee Konitz is much smoother, but Braxton's jagged lines make it work a different way

THE LEAD GUITAR IS MISSING!!!!

This is GREAT MUSIC. the greatest composers never topped this. Tim was a monumental visionary.

His vocals are not like this on any other track, because this is TIM Davis singing, the guy who also wrote the song.

This arrangement was Peggy's idea. The song was a gentle, sappy waltz from a show, and the record execs at Capitol were horrified at this zippy, percussion-heavy idea, sure it would not sell. She knew her contract with them was soon gonna be up, so she jumped over to Decca, and made this HUGE HIT...

Yes, Vesters, it does seem not much akin to the "free jazz" of, say, Ornette or Albert. but Jimmy was, and still is, considered an outside-the-box guy. His facility as a clarinetist is seen by many in the jazz elite to be not up to snuff. But too many forget that Johnny Dodds and even Pee Wee Rus...

oh yes, one of my fave Como tunes.This music is not a waltz, though. can any dance pros tell us what the dance is?

He brought depth and dimension to every character, even in a lighthearted romp like the Brothers Grimm. Too many of us recognized his artistry too late.

I use two mouthpieces, Kaspar 123 (from the original Frank L), and a violently customized Mitch Lurie (87 tip). I like softer reeds for more flexibility, more nuance, inspired by the Turkish guys, as well as many jazz artists ( 2.5 for the Kaspar. 1 for the Lurie) after 40 years of playing, I h...

Yeah, too bad NOBODY has posted the original version from B of T. It features a great Richie Blackmore solo, one of the greatest short solos in rock history.

Ray Collins is the man who sings lead on this tune. He was the lead singer of the Mothers, in the original incarnation, and brilliantly so. Zappa NEVER HAD a better singer.

This guy influenced many punkers. too bad NONE of them ever picked up on the complexity of his inventions.

.... where's the rest? you guys got any club performance clips?

These girls are STEALIN the show, guys! those harmonies are kickin. I love how the pink shirt chick does a little shtick here and there. More of That!

wunnaful, wunnaful! harmonies right on, and the lead singer delivers Dan's dead-pan (some say dead fish) style perfectly. Can't figure though, how the guitar player keeps time just fine, but his foot-tappin is way off. huh.

Ellington's "In A Sentimental Mood" is the closing tune here.

"round red sombreros...... wrap 'er high tap horsey shoes" . DAMMIT!!!! who can touch this guy??!!

Read what's in front of you, El senor bunko. the quote that I was agreeing with did not include anything about racism. Me and Chuck agree, he didn't mean a damn thing except more cash for the colonel. And... did you know Elvis? if not, you can't be sure he was not a racist. A musician can cop t...

Mary IS Gorgeous!! SarangHae, what can you say, some folks got taste, some just got it in their mouth.

stretch-- ECM is a German company. German studios. the great German producer Manfred Eicher. Ralph Towner- American. Jan Garbarek & Jon Christensen- Swedish. Eberhard Weber-German. ain't one gawddang Englishman in the bunch.

Delighted to see this dazzling woman getting back to her more freewheeling and unfettered self that she was in the 70s. For those of you who missed that.. .aahhhh... well, we didn't have cameras in our cellphones back then. or even cellphones!! But the good news is, she is back to it, and in rar...

Professor Steve Carey, Charlie Burns (guitar), and Lu Evers

Charlie Burns, guitar, and Lu Evers, vocal. Steve Carey's Philosophy of Religion class, Portland Community College. the lyrics, from an unknown source, were adapted from St Anselm's Ontological Argument. The tune is Waltzing Matilda, which has been attributed to many authors, including Christina ...

I've been playing clarinet for 40 years. "so it must be easy at this point, huh?".

no. it never gets easy. but this thing. holy freakin hannah.
