JSngry Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 If you're of a certain age, you probably remember when cereal boxes occasionally came with records built into the box, sort of a flexi-disc deal. Cut the record out of the box, and enjoy The Archies, The Bananna Splits a madcap adventure w/Count Chocula & Boo-Berry, you know, stuff like that. Well, if you could put any Blue Note performance on a cereal box record, which one would it be? For extra fun, which cereal would your choice come with?

Dan Gould Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 You do realize you're insane, right? OK, Hank Mobley, "My Sin" (from his debut LP as a leader), paired up with Product 19, an adult cereal for an adult tune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Man, I LOVED those records!!! The first thing that came to my mind is actually a non-Blue-Note side: Philly Joe's "Blues for Dracula" on a box of Count Chocula! I'll think of others later!

AfricaBrass Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Jim, another great thread! I'm having a hard time coming up with good breakfast ideas, but lunch is easy. Heck, Lou Donaldson could make a great lunch soundtrack. Maybe start with Hot Dog and move on to Grits and Gravy. Too bad he didn't record for Blue Note, but Johnny Hodges would go very nicely with a bowl of Trix, since he was the Rabbit. Actually, LD's Nice 'N Greasy would go nice with a McGriddle. Mmmmm, Nice 'N Greasy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

couw Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Shall we not have Hank Mobley's Syrup & Biscuits (SNFilter) to go with the McGriddles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Burke Posted October 23, 2003 Report Share Posted October 23, 2003 (edited) I've been going with Bud Powell The Scene Changes (especially "Duid Deed") for years. That head stays in my mind for hours. Never fails. Other than that, I go with *lighter* stuff (non-BN) like Stan Getz "Ginza Samba" from With Cal Tjader or Vince Guaraldi/Bola Sete From All Sides (which also features a version "Ginza Samba", now that I think about it)..... EDIT: Cheerios, by the way. Edited October 23, 2003 by Brandon Burke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
