Greetings O. Wasn't gonna visit long but you threw out this long lasso and hauled me back. :-) I LIKED that Vince Guaraldi. Tried to find info on the other musicians playing. Guitar work impressed me. Not finding "A Taste of Honey" or "Ballad of Pancho Villa" listed in Wiki for Vince. I do see credits for his work with one, Bola Sete. Is that who is playing? And what is the actual recording, a compilation? Melody sounded somewhat familiar but not exactly like A Taste of Honey that I remember from when Herb Alpert was getting airplay with it. Clue me in, please. In line with, "all flesh is grass"... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGmQXuySF28&ab_channel=AUGUSTUS66ful |
I will never forget when the love of my life married another man; that's when I spoke to the river (the mighty Mississippi) I spoke to the river And the river spoke back to me It said man you look so lonely You look full of misery And if you can't find your baby Come and make your home with me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypSlDCbxETg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOHAXdD_mx0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axNkMWRcrPM Take your choice of one of these, or pick another one. Enjoy my music. |
Ghosthouse, I've got Vince and Bola Sete on record, but I can't find the record, and I'm not certain, but you can not go wrong with those two if you see them together. Although Herb Alpert sounded much different, it was the same tune. Here's another one by Vince; "Cast Your Fate to The Wind". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTA3aOfrDHA |
Orpheus, that is a really sad story, did it end well for you, somehow, somewhere, at the end? If you dont mind me asking? Ghosthouse, I could not open first Orpheus clip, to check whose on guitar, but some time ago I have posted first two albums of Vince Guaraldi, where he is joined with Eddie Duran on guitar. Here are couple of songs from that two albums for you to check and compare is it the same guy playing. https://youtu.be/-XWAqEG_uwk https://youtu.be/g0AiG4zFEMk If he is the guy that you like, than you could check his music as well, from the same period. 'Jazz Guitarists' from 1957 Duran was 32 when he recorded Jazz Guitarist, his first album as a leader in 1957. His sound and approach were deeply rooted in the bebop tradition, with echoes of Tal Farlow. With Duran on this debut was Howard Dudune—a cleantoned young clarinetist and Getz-derived tenor saxophonist—with support from bassist Dean Reilly and drummer John Markham. https://youtu.be/r690ZKDfZaU https://youtu.be/Tt8_78NL-dA Also,album from 1955. trio session with Ron Crotty and Vince Guaraldi. Crotty was a part of Dave Brubeck’s early groups and trio produced some relaxed and swinging jazz. Modern music from San Francisco https://youtu.be/lfNpRmod4eY https://youtu.be/gEEJNPuHb3Q Hope you will like it |
