 | | perfidious: I do not propose to discuss politics here; that said, <gazafan> should really take up his hypocrisy with <fredfradiavolo>, who insinuates politics on game and player games as a matter of course (ironically excepting Rogoff but for rare occasions), then points the finger. |

| | 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. |
|

| | 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? |

https://youtu.be/cCYGyg1H56s?si=Nam... Okay, another one.

 | | 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. |

| | 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>

| | 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. |

| | 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... |
