Eisenberg says that Jerry Wexler, "took Aretha Franklin from hapless Columbia, set her down in a Muscle Shoals studio, and tossed her 'I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)' as one tosses a lighted match at petroleum."

Simon8 Posted February 28, 2015 Report Posted February 28, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oc5xXYzEKAs From Charlie Haden's Montreal Tapes, with Paul Bley & Paul Motian (1989). Bley's clarion call release (3:08-3:15) after a wicked crescendo (from 2:38) makes me wanna shout for joy every time. Quote

Neal Pomea Posted March 14, 2015 Report Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) Chuck Guillory, Pauvre Hobo (Poor Hobo) http://www.npmusic.org/ChuckGuillory_Poor_Hobo.mp3 "Chuck Guillory, who alternates working as a merchant seaman and roughneck (oil-field worker), is thought of as the best fiddler in the region. He used to lead his own French string band (fiddle, guitar, steel guitar, piano, and drums) which played hill-billy and Cajun music in dance halls and nightclubs. His style is basically country-and-western, much like the fiddling on Nashville's Grand Ole Opry." notes from Harry Oster's field recording, late 1950s, Folksongs of the Louisiana Acadians. I love this French music standard and have many versions of it, but THIS is probably the most joyous one ever! Mike Doucet of Beausoleil provides the energetic mandolin solo, and brother David the guitar solo. Second fiddler Gervis Stanford on spirited shouts, Preston Manuel on vocal pretty close to the original lyrics by the Breaux Brothers. http://www.arhoolie.com/cajun-and-zydeco/chuck-guillory-grand-texas.html Edited March 14, 2015 by Neal Pomea Quote

jeffcrom Posted March 28, 2015 Report Posted March 28, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDbTWddrtkE Bunky Green - It Could Happen to You, from Another Place (Label Bleu, 2004). This barely edged out "Tune X" from the same album. I was prompted to spin this album after a discussion with a friend led me to question whether I was overrating Bunky Green. After I spun it, I was asking myself why I don't listen to some Bunky Green every day. Quote

BillF Posted April 6, 2015 Report Posted April 6, 2015 The tune "Silver's Blue" from the CD of the same title on Epic. Horace Silver's solo is a knockout. Agreed. I've always liked that one. Right back to the roots of the blues! Quote
