Favoriting The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from June 2, 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.

Have been considering this set. I have the 2009 CD release. It is 3 CDs which puzzled me so I put in the 3rd CD and see that it is the booklet. Website on a CD instead of printed booklet. Good for me because the print on CD booklets is often squintingly small. Still undecided about getting the new expanded release.

Was big fan of Soft Machine since 1969. Missed seeing them twice. First time, even before I had heard of Soft Machine, my friends went to see Hendrix. I had heard Hendrix version of Hey Joe 10 times too many times and didn't go. Friends came back raving about the opening band with little long haired drummer who played in his under pants. There is a picture.
wfmu.org...

(readers in the future, sorry that link might go away in a few weeks)

OK, so I get the first two SM albums when they come out. SM 3 is coming out on Columbia Records, we read in rock and roll press that they are touring. I say we, I work in a big record store in Dallas and we in the store start asking the Columbia salesman if he can get details on where SM will be appearing because we want to be there. We make a big deal of it and he calls back and says that he checked and they are only playing NY & California. We are broke record store hippies and bummed.

A few months later I move to San Antonio where the company is opening a new store. As usual, I often play Soft Machine in the store. A new friend in San Antonio tells me that SM played there, that he heard they played in Houston as well. . .

After Wyatt left Soft Machine my interest went down so never saw any of the later iterations of the band either.

When Sharp played the Other Minds festival a few years back, she volunteered to take him from his hotel to the venue. (I had the pleasure of taking Roscoe Mitchell from his hotel to the airport. Problem was that nobody told me his entire ensemble would be with him...)

I let my kids pick the tunes in the car, which is by definition a bad sound system. Besides, it's fun. They play their stuff, e.g., Stephen Sanchez, whom I really enjoy, and then I provide some paternal instruction. I asked my daughter to play Roy Orbison's "Crying," which is an obvious inspiration for Sanchez. She now enjoys Roy, too!

When the kids were younger, they picked the tunes (usually the same CD again and again). My older daughter sometimes plays things for me, current, like the new Beyonce.

↳ Song: "Queen B" by "Ron Miles"
Oh I forgot to say: the album credits Miles with trumpet on this release (not cornet)... but I read recently that he often played a G trumpet (as opposed to the standard Bb trumpet) to get a darker fuller sound... so I am giving up on any pretense that I can tell the difference between Ron Miles on cornet and trumpet.

I know a segment of pop songs from the last decade or two exclusively via Kidz Bop. I came to dig them. In some cases, their versions are superior to the originals.

Drivers should be happy? Content? Sorry, not on this planet. If the opportunity every arises (not likely) do NOT vote for me for Emperor. I will immediately impose a 1-strike-and-you-are-so-far-out-of-here-that-your-Thomas-Guide-won't-help-you. Any moving violation? Bye, bye. No more driving.

I never heard of a G trumpet (not that I'm a trumpet maven, but I thought wind instruments were tuned to B flat, E flat, all those chords that kill a rock/folk guitar player...)

In symphony orchestras there are all kinds, depending on the score: including in "concert C," Eb, even F...

I was once at an orchestra concert where the tuba player (who had at least two different instruments at hand) had the wrong instrument in his lap when he had a solo passage, and had to transpose on the fly. I saw all my friends in the string section exchange startled looks as they didn't understand why the first note was wrong

It's a necessary professional skill, especially in the days before computer score software: if you're in a big band, you might show up and be handed a chart written in concert key and be expected to transpose it

I had hoped to make some money on the side copying parts (I found it relaxing): figuring out how to distribute the music across the page to make it legible, to make page turns possible, etc... Nice pens, nice paper... but "copyist" is not even a job anymore I don't think

i had a friend was an artist for nabisco for years. then they decided to have everything created digitally (for obvious, though not necessarily justifiable reasons).
my friend learned all the programs and kept her job; then after less than a year quit.
