Free For All Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 I like that you see valve trombone but hear slide trombone. Quote
JSngry Posted September 5, 2011 Author Report Posted September 5, 2011 Could we dare think that we're actually hearing Rosolino there? Quote
Free For All Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 (edited) Could we dare think that we're actually hearing Rosolino there? That crossed my mind when I heard a couple of those Rosolino-like arpeggios, but I thought the sound just didn't seem right, though it could have been the recording. Weird-ass clip, though!

JSngry Posted September 5, 2011 Author Report Posted September 5, 2011 Yeah, you go from late-50s cornball to mid-60s quasi-Hard Day's Night cuteness to late 60s Baroque Pop to later '60s almost psychedelic/surreal imagery (that all female string section thing...wow, that predates Robert Palmer by at least one lifetime...) aqll inthe space of one quick-ish cigarette. AND it's in Spanish. Perfect world. Quote
Dave James Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 The real question here is not valve versus slide or who's really playing the trombone. The real question is WTF is this? Even more so, how was it found? Jim must have some deep well drilling equipment in his YouTube kit bag that the rest of us can only dream about. Does anyone happen to know the Spanish word for brutal? Quote
JSngry Posted September 5, 2011 Author Report Posted September 5, 2011 Los Hermanos Castro, bro. All you need is a little curiosity and the internet. One thing leads to another. Quote
Dave James Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 I get it. Like this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Hermanos_Castro Quote
JSngry Posted September 5, 2011 Author Report Posted September 5, 2011 Yep. And what really, REALLY helps is getting out there and enabling those lowlife copyright violators who post "special interest" music on so called "sharity" blogs. That's how I found one (ONE!) thing by Los Hermanos Castro, and like I said, one thing leads to another. Next thing you know, there's this really nifty/wacko flip from some movie that probably none of us will ever have a chance to see (unless we dig even deeper on the internet, and...I'm motivated, but not limitlessly so, if you know what I mean). The internet's a big place! Quote
Jim R Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 It's all here... WTF? Go to the sequence from 2:46 to 2:50 elapsed time, and tell me that's not Vic Morrow doing an impression of Jerry Lewis. Quote
JSngry Posted September 5, 2011 Author Report Posted September 5, 2011 That would have been before he had has head chopped off, right? He kept doing the impersonation afterwards, but the impact just wasn't the same. Quote
Jim R Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 Los Hermanos Castro, bro. All you need is a little curiosity and the internet. One thing leads to another. Impressive! Very reminiscent of Os Cariocas in their prime years. That would have been before he had has head chopped off, right? Yeah, in fact I almost said "Sgt. Saunders" doing an impression of Jerry Lewis. Uncanny resemblance. He kept doing the impersonation afterwards, but the impact just wasn't the same. Right- there was something about his expressions during that brief sequence. Quote
