Jimmy Smith with Harold Land - Organ Grinder's Swing

I found another interview that I think is interesting, especially the following part: The full interview is here: http://www.innerviews.org/inner/zawinul.html

I have waited three years for the appropriate time to use this icon: Hey, there's precendent.

Anna Nicole: stripper bimbo of no discernable talent, "famous for being famous", lived a sad, pathetic life. Was a punchline long before she came to a sad end. Barbaro: Champion, might have been historically great, suffered hideous accident yet gallantly held on until medical science could do no more. Aside from the fact that one is a horse and one is a human, I'd say the reactions are fairly normal. Gallantly held on? What, is there a high rate of injured race horse suicide? Every day the horse woke up and said, "Dammit, I've got to FIGHT this thing, man!!! I can't give up now!" A little bit of extreme anthropomorphism there, don't you think? Seems to me the owners kept the horse alive until they exhausted all options. I don't think the horse chose one way or the other. Smith might've been "famous for being famous" but she was a human being who leaves behind an infant daughter. That sucks.

Chewy is lucky Ev'ry day he lives in fear Of the iron fist

Poor Anna getting less respect here than that horse a few days back that everyone jumped on my shit for... Hmmm....

You mean like LeBron or DWade?

That just gives me shivers up and down my spine. Just as relevant today than when it was released, imo. Maybe even more so.

If that's the real reason Chris left, I don't know what to say. Seems just a wee bit dramatic, don't you think?

I can't imagine why you'd even be debating this?

I think it should be donated to the gracious forum host who allows y'all to be here in the first place. I mean, since you got it for free and all.

WEird.

I miss Marvin.

Who are you talking to?

What is the answer? I think most sensible would agree that we need to ban the guitar from music.

I think the only answer to the Super Bowl's recent half time woes is to ressurrect Lawrence Welk and have him stage the entertainment. Wait, that might be too gay.

A decent article about Zawinul in the Jan. 2007 edition of Keyboard Magazine: http://www.keyboardmag.com/story.asp?storycode=16824

Damn. I got a ways to go.

This is a killer version, but some think it was lip-sync'd: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STKSdLm2r8k I once read that Whitney was almost impossible to double-track (ie, recording a vocal take at least twice to impart some natural "chorus" effect to the voice) because her control, pitch, and vibrato was so good that the overdubbed vocal would sound exactly like the previous vocal take and it would sound like one take. She used to have some pipes!

A "white-trash" TIVO! I like it!

- John L. Walters, Unknown Public I think I read a similar version in Keyboard Magazine in the 80s. Wow. That is fucking inspiring to me. Holy epiphany, Batman! Can I wait until I get my WR boxset from JoeG?
