Favoriting The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from January 28, 2024 Favoriting

DJ Peter's avatar View DJ Peter's profile Favoriting

Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

Her big records were "Blame It On My Last Affair" with Count Basie on Decca, and "Blues for Helen" that's been collected on a lot of Lester Young retrospectives, 1930s... cool that Contemporary gave her a late career boost.
