 | | HeMateMe: There's nothing funny when you're here big pawn. You're a miserable ass. |

| | gezafan: The Gits with a live version of Precious Blood. The Gits were good recorded but I think they were even better live. https://youtu.be/w8TJAF8q1tw?list=R... |

 | | Check It Out: <gezafan> The Gits were great. Mia's murder was a real blow here. She reminds me of a raw version of the Linda Perry from 4 Non Blondes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NX... |

 | | OhioChessFan: Brian Auger-Happiness is Just Around the Bend
https://youtu.be/qfxFxqa_K60?si=bcw... Jazzy, fusion feel to this keyboard song. |
|
Jul-14-25
| | OhioChessFan: Sidney Bechet-Egyptian Fantasy
https://youtu.be/duJlOOJlV6U?si=ZLM... Maybe the best clarinet player ever. |
|
| Jul-15-25 | | stone free or die: Being naturally inclined towards the contrarian, I always like to take opportunities like this to mention other worthies of the title of best ever... e.g.
Pete Fountain - (various, see comment by <jfuzz9083>)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vs...
Benny Goodman (of course) - Sing, Sing, Sing:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mJ...
Not to say Bechet shouldn't be listed, also, of course. |
|
| Jul-15-25 | | stone free or die: Maybe <OCF> could post his favorite Artie Shaw? |

| | OhioChessFan: Is Begin the Beguine too obvious?
https://youtu.be/cCYGyg1H56s?si=Nam... Okay, another one.
Frenesi. https://youtu.be/sMOHMYl5BCs?si=DTg... |

 | | offramp: Do you know <Shopping List> songs? Ian Dury did them very well. He did two songs that were very clever:
<Reasons To Be Cheerful>
&
<England's Glory>.
Both of these songs are very funny.
The best shopping list song is by Billy Joel: <We Didn't Start the Fire>. |

 | | keypusher: < offramp: Do you know <Shopping List> songs?> Since Cole Porter came up...
<Is it an earthquake or simply a shock?
Is it the good turtle soup or merely the mock?
Is it a cocktail, this feeling of joy?
Or is what I feel the real McCoy?
Is it for all time or simply a lark?
Is it Granada I see or only Asbury Park?
Is it a fancy not worth thinking of?
Or is it at long last love?>
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYW...
There's <You're the Top>, <Let's Misbehave>...he had a million of them. I don't know if REM still counts as modern, but <It's the End of the World As We Know It> is pretty good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Oy...
I guess <Man on the Moon> qualifies too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLx... |
|

| | offramp: Sadly, I am not a fan of either REM or Frank Sinatra.
However I <do> like Frank Sinatra Jr. |
|
| Jul-16-25 | | stone free or die: <<OCF> Is Begin the Beguine too obvious?> Well, I did <Sing, Sing, Sing>. I'll put in a couple of other choices for Artie: <Blues in the Night> - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5X... (Not really as a clarinet showcase, but as a timepiece) <A Foggy Day> - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5X... Of course you're welcome to listen to the other songs over at the link. |
|
Jul-16-25
| | offramp: Two songs that are two peas in a <POD>. A beautiful song, beautifully sung.
<Frank Sinatra, Jr., & Was (Not Was)>
<"Wedding Vows in Vegas.">.
https://youtu.be/dmGIHcjtmBc?si=y3n... A lovely and funny song by Declan McManus, a song that had the same cadence as the Sinatra/Was Not Was one:
<Harry Worth>
https://youtu.be/RsRhYHA_SvU?si=17s... |

| | offramp: <keypusher: <offramp: Do you know <Shopping List> songs?>
Since Cole Porter came up...
<...Or is it at long last love?>> That is a great song, written in very difficult circumstances. There is a film based on that song, <At Lost Long Love>. Burt Reynolds and Cybill Shepherd. Dir: Peter Bogdanovich. The song and the film were cursed. |
|
Jul-16-25
| | OhioChessFan: <Do you know <Shopping List> songs?> Reunion -Life Is a Rock
https://youtu.be/Sqbab0LOSsM?si=Ndd... I worked with a guy who memorized it. Sang it for us 30 years later to prove it. |

 | | saffuna: The Kyoto Tachibana high school band got slowed up at this year Rose Parade, so played an impromptu "Sing Sing Sing" in front of a small group of spectators: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9s... At 8:50.
Here the band plays it on the opening straightaway, right in front of "Wicked": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42g... |

| | saffuna: I stumbled upon this amazing episode of "Route 66" from 1961. The series' stars barely appear, and the episode is given over to jazz greats of the 40s and 50s. It's contrived and predictable but still great. Fast forward to the end if you just want to hear the "The Memphis Naturals" play. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN3...
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0690452/
An odd thing about the show is that none of the musicians plays his usual instrument. |
