or Why I Hate Slim and Slam

[note: I actually love dancing to Slim and Slam, and all the energy and silliness that they share. The "hate" part is really tongue-in-cheek.]

All Slim and Slam songs sound the same. What happens if you play them all at once?

Stereo Left: Jump Session
Stereo Right: Flat Foot Floogie
Center: Tutti Frutti

  • Wow. I love Slim & Slam EVEN MORE now.

  • as if you couldn't do this with pop music today.

    songwriting back then was as formulaic as it is today. but this is pretty funny, i have to admit.

    doesn't change the fact that those guys could swing like nobody's business

  • Hey wait here, TH@`s Slim on BASS ! Who is playing Guitar ?

  • --No point for YOU to listen to ANY music. All musicians are derivative of themselves. (Is this not obvious?) Slim Galliard and Slam Stewart were IMPORTANT musicians. I LOVE Slam's technique of bowing and humming leads. Listen to some records where Slam is playing without Slim and vice versa. Jazz was not created in a dry university lab by some tenureed tweedy prof. It was created by a bunch of drunks at 5AM in a smoky after-hours place. And thank God for those great gentlemen.

  • ok so they are the same ... but they still sound great !

  • I actually think this makes both songs sound cooler!!

  • I wish you had given us this incredible footage without playing games. Slam Steward and Slim Gaillard offered a delightful salad complete with meats and fruit, while everybody else was serving hamburger. Please post these pieces as they were intended.

  • nice mix lol :o)

  • Jeez - You must LOVE the Ramones!

  • You could do this with modern music, but that's because it's mostly produced at the same tempos with a metronome keeping time.

    These guys are metronomes, and it almost aint human.

    For the most part, musicians are not of this caliber.

    Actually Tutti Frutti didn't sync at all for me- but the other two tracks are unbelievably good.

  • Love it, love it, love it. Did you use some electronic speed-adjusting to have the rhythms sync up?
