21. 'Round Midnight

Miles Davis & John Coltrane - The Final Tour: Paris, March 21, 1960

I took the easy route but also some live Jazz with my Sunday morning coffee seems like a smart choice as well.

22. Sarabande

I was just playing this the other night and it's perfect so let's spin an encore.

Southern rockers with a blues based song flipped on it's head with a sarabande rhythm that I discovered in the mid 70's that was my gateway to the mind expansion of jazz...



The Allman Brothers Band - S/T

 

[Turbo]

22. Sarabande

Camaron con Paco de Lucia y tomatito "Como El Agua" (1981 Phillips; 2019 reissue)
Not sure I have anything with a sarabande rhythm in my collection, or how to identify it, so I decided to play something with various Spanish styles that may or may not be related beyond country of origin... flamenco, tango, bolero, tarantos, alegrias.

 

[Wicked Dreamer]

here I am, playing catch-up again…

Day 19: “Let’s Get It On”

George Michael - “I Want Your Sex”



Decided to go with another classic sex jam!

 

[Wicked Dreamer]

Day 20: “A Case of You”

Decided to go with another album that has the Blue motif on its cover & title…

Lou Reed - The Blue Mask

 

[Wicked Dreamer]

Day 21: “‘Round Midnight”

The Olympians - “Midnight Movement”

 

[Wicked Dreamer]

Day 22: “Sarabande”

I can’t remember off the top of my head if I have any songs with a sarabande rhythm in my collection, so I just chose a song that (I’m pretty sure) is in 3/4 time…

The Teddy Bears - “To Know Him, Is to Love Him”

 

[gafacaode]

22. Sarabande

I was going to play some flamenco but @Turbo beat me to it so.....

Do you remember where you bought this one?

EDIT: Checked on Disco100 (where I bought La Leyenda del Tiempo) and they had it. Ordered!

Day 22: “Sarabande”

There was probably some Spanish Castle Magic going on while dancing at those 17th century balls and whatnot.

I think that's where I got it. Either there of Amazon Spain. I got Como Del Agua at Disco100 and La Leyenda del Tiempo at Amazon Spain, or vice-versa.

20. A Case of You

The Mountain Goats - The Sunset Tree

I know this is an odd album for the prompt, but it's the first one that popped into my head. This has to be in the running for my top ten most listened to albums of all time. The line "a girl named Cathy wants a little of my time" in This Year always makes me think of a very good friend of mine when we were teenagers named Cathy. We hung out all the time so everyone thought I had caught a bad case of her. But she was just a lot of fun to be friends with and I wasn't interested in anything more... mostly because I was hooking up with her best friend and she didn't know about it. Ah to be young and dumb and often drunk.

23. The Sky is Crying

Embarrassed to say none of my Elmore James records have this song.

A pretty worthy runner-up.

All musical kings, two by name...



Stevie Ray Vaughan - The Sky Is Crying

22. Sarabande
Various – Nonesuch Presents: Treasures Of The Baroque


I'd initially planned to play some Erik Satie, but I don't actually have any of his Sarabandes so, instead, I went with some unplayed Baroque from my Free Store score a few weeks back since Sarabandes were a popular form with the Baroque composers.

21. 'Round Midnight

I got scooped by the uncle on this one with Herbie and I couldn't decide what else to play until this showed up this morning and features a version of Monk's Dream by Thelonious.
