Hold that Tiger !TIGER IN THE ROUGH


Oh Tiger, Whoa Tiger!

You the hunter, now the hunted.

The predatory ways of media voyeurism

Have set you off your course

The tiger was hungry

But so was the public

For news of your deeds

The heel of Achilies

His Weakness

The papparazi got the scent of the tiger

and sent their hounds baying

Your wife has been injured, your children abandoned

Those two robbers: Lust and Greed

Have stolen your prowess

  • A wonderful performance. The first part has the fluid grace of the opera melodies Jelly Roll Morton used in Tiger Rag, and the unhurried simplicity of this part reminds me of Gottshalk's evocation of French children's songs in pieces like La Savane. Then comes the continuous augment and drive of the classic Tiger Rag. I've enjoyed Tiger Rag for a long while and thought that there were no new treasures in this piece, but Frank has illuminated Tiger Rag all over again.
