Playlist Tracks
Cannonball Adderley Quintet "Money in the Pocket" Cannonball in Japan 1966 To the sweet and lovely cousin of Roy McCurdy, Cannonball's drummer, who called from Rochester, NY: Yes, he was in Japan with the band. The website link above not only gives the whole lineup, but has photos of a rare red vinyl copy of the album. ...Not that I'm lusting after it or anything. |

Jonathan Batiste "Straight No Chaser" Times in New Orleans |
Billie Holiday "Please Don't Talk About Me When I'm Gone" The Complete Billie Holiday on Verve, 1945-1959 I love this studio outtake: Billie's voice kinda slidin in, the first fingersnaps of tempo, the piano searching for Holiday's elusive key...it all works up to Magic. |

People Like Us "Daphne Everybody's Calling" Reworking Daphne Oram If you don't know who Daphne Oram is, you're not alone...but that don't make it right. Most people think electronic music belongs to the kids, but they couldn't be more mistaken. Daphne Oram pioneered this stuff (and was often labeled some kinda nutjob for it) back in the mid 1940s. Her eventual style was called Oramics. And it is amazingly beautiful, these 60 years later. |
