Poison Heart from the album Mondo Bizarro by the Ramones.

I love it when Anthony Bourdain goes trekking through the jungles with his sleeveless Ramones t-shirt, cigarette dangling, sweat pouring off him

Wow! Govt Mule........

Warren Haynes surfaced as producer/guitar gunslinger for the Bottle Rockets a few years ago on their album Blue Sky. Not so good, at least for me.

"Don't Need No Doctor" by Humble Pie now hitting my earphones. Ain't IPod great?

I never like Govt. Mule, give me some Warren Hayenes with the Allmans or Phil lesh and Friends and I'm all for it.

that good ol' boy can play that guitar.

Mannin Veen, a tone poem by British composer Hadyn Wood, performed by The (President's Own) United States Marine Band led by the band's 27th commanding officer and conductor, Colonel Timothy W. Foley. (John Phillip Sousa was the band's 17th leader, from 1880 to 1892.)

Demo version of "Out Of Time" recorded in 1966 by Mick and some London studio musicians as he developed it for the Stones setlist.

"Coupe de Ville" by the Del Fuegos, circa 1980 from Boston.

I just put my IPod on shuffle and surprise myself as each song comes up. Here comes "Framed" by Chris Knight.

Geez, I love ITunes.

Blue Bells of Scotland, by Arthur Pryor, trombone soloist of the Sousa Band, who later led his own band in Asbury Park, New Jersey. In later life, he was an American Democratic Party politician from New Jersey, who served on the Monmouth County, New Jersey Board of Chosen Freeholders during the 1930s.

Played by Joe Alessi, principal trombone, New York Philharmonic

Selections include:
RAVEL Kaddisch from Deux Melodies Hebraiques
BERNSTEIN Simple Song, from Mass
BLOCH Prayer from Jewish Life No 1
WILLIAMS Theme from Schindler's List

Don Lucas really makes the trombone sing like a cello. So fine.

No, Virginia by The Dresden Dolls. Nice creepy songs on there that I so crave.

"Ain't That Lonely Yet" by Dwight Yoakum. Kinda countrypolitan stuff but goes well with a few slugs of Booker's.

Seal's Kiss from a Rose, reinterpreted by Genghis Barbie:

"Who'll Stop the Rain" by CCR. They sold more records in the '70s than anybody.

Follwed by "Too Much" by Elvis on the IPod.

Yesterday was a 14 hour day finish to an 80 hour week. After the morning event was finished we took a 45 minute break before setting up the evening wedding. I went into my office/storeroom, slid the clogs off, turned out the lights and listened to some great stuff on my ipod.

Adagio from Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 6, CSO with Bernard Haitink
Mvts. 1 & 2 from Rimsky Korsakov's Scherezade, CSO with Daniel Barenboim

And then for attitude adjustment:

Bullets and Bayonets, John Phillip Sousa, Eastman Wind Ensemble, Frederick Fennell
Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, John Phillip Sousa, United States Marine Band (President's Own)

As a veteran I can appreciate all things Sousa.

But, I am listening to the Waco Brothers (Chicago's own) today. "Revolution Blues" seems apropos with Election Day next week.

Last night at Orchestra Hall:
Chicago Symphony Orchestra led by Michael Tilson Thomas

Copland Quiet City
Copland Organ Symphony
Copland Orchestral Variations
Copland Appalachian Spring (complete)

Wonderful playing by all.

Hi,

In all that Aaron Copland, they didn't add his greatest hit (or at least the one I know) "Ode to the Common Man?"

Regards,

Humble Pie: "Thirty Days In the Hole"

Regards,

Cathy,

The CSO plays very little Copland, and I don't imagine that changing much under the orchestra's new leadership.

I believe I heard the orchestra's brass and percussion play "Fanfare" a few years ago at one of the Bud Herseth tribute concerts conducted by Jay Friedman.

An Irish duo (Evans & Doherty) singing a fond memory of Steve Goodman*:

He hums a line or two, they sing together in the dark.
The Dutchman falls asleep and Margaret blows the candle out.

Let us go to the banks of the ocean,
Where the walls rise above the Zuider Zee;
Long ago I used to be a young man,
And dear Margaret remembers that for me.

* Although, in the spirit of this forum, this song, Chicken Cordon Blues, might be more appropriate.

One of my favorite love songs.



We got into a car, away we started rolling,
I said,"How much you pay for this? said, "Nothing man, it's stolen."

PS to ronnie: no trombone, but there are mesmerized stares at booted feet.

And on the topic of love songs, it's tragic that Dino's version of "You Belong to Me" was (to the best of my knowledge) never captured on video (or kinescope). I'd love to see him making those melancholy, melodramatic sounds.

Taking it all in from somewhere in Jupiter's inner moon system, Sun Ra telegraphs via song the site of a distant sun rising over the cold black horizon of his vantage point.....Love in Outer Space

I can't get It Wasn't Me by Shaggy out of my head. Ah, B96, you delightful scamp.

Watching...Listening to U2: Rattle and Hum. The boys at the top of their game.

Side note. Many posts ago someone wrote about Flying Saucer Attack and how their music could peel paint off walls. Well, when you combine a statement like that with a really cool name for a band, you just have to give them a listen. It took me a while to get New Lands and give it a listen and now I have to repaint my living room.

Live From Sofia, Bulgaria

Just picked this up from Downtown Music in Chinatown, probably one of the last great jazz record shops anywhere (along with Chicago's own Jazz Record Mart).

Holy shit. Oh and did I mention that was Ornette Coleman on sax?
