the bridge needs to be crossed. best is that these guys give new meaning to the song with the edgy playing like they just drunk five double shots straight. jesus probably thinks them smoothies is jerks. one minute sample of the vocal version (real audio stream)

holidays are over and the disk was in the mail upon my return, thanks a lot. still need to spin it, but hope to contribute soon.

still sober

that'd be Helge Schneider, he did various versions of the ditty. One is vocal (ladidadidadidadidaa take fiiive! just take fiiiive!) and pretty hilarious, but I don't have that one. The one I have is with an tenor/organ/drums trio and rather straight, but also funny as anything if you can appreciate the humour. A bit like Shepp doing Girl from Ipanema (which Helge performs as well on the same disk as this Take 5). take a listen (2.2 Mb mp3, crappy sound and may need right-click-download).

Great tune as long as it's played in it's original form, "Takin' Five" doesn't count. you obviously never heard Helge take it apart five times over stir fried with a stumbling horn and wavering lines. Ka Chinggg!

Once did a city tour (by foot! crazy me...) based on a listing of BD (comix that is) shops from the yellow pages. Find yellow pages in some hotel/post office and plan your trip. I hear public transport is pretty good too. It's been ages since I visited the town, but it was always a pleasure and there are always some unexpected finds. If you have the time and interest I can recommend the comix museum (Centre Belge de la Bande Dessinée, Rue des Sables), pretty impressive stuff they have there.

logging in for the special occasion... (thanks to brownie for the internet connection, we will have one onya!)

thas way cool. have him play some Brahms, what's the number of that thing again... 38 I think. Real good for musing.

I think catesta smells. don't you agree?

glad to have *all* of you folks when I need a laugh!

I don't think this is funny

DD, that Zerbe comes pretty close to the Breuker things. Breuker is more sarcastic, though.
