Lachy Doley - My Own Medicine - Official Music Video

 

This week's Sunday Special.  

'My Own Medicine' - Official Music Video by Lachy Doley Sydney is such a beautiful part of the world and has now been my home for 27 years. The absolute perfect backdrop for my very upbeat piano thumpin pop rock tune 'My Own Medicine'. So last month we decided to put on an exclusive show on the gorgeous 'Harbour Spirit' and make a music video at the same time!! It was always gonna be a huge risk being totally dependent on the weather plus the 48 hours leading up to it did nothing to calm my nerves. In fact it was so torrential I had everyone asking whether it was still going ahead. Well luckily, with only a few hours spare the clouds parted and the sun came beaming down to become the perfect day. PHEW!! Such a wonderful, fun show. More like a party than a concert. We also had the legendary Ray Beadle come down and play a few tunes tunes. What a top day. Great to see so many of my Sydney people getting involved and bringing the vibe. Thank you so much and make sure you tag yourself and let the world know 🙂 Audio Recording: Performed and written by Lachlan (Lachy) Doley Mixed and produced by Lachy Doley and Kieran Collings Bass by Joel Burton Drums by Jackie James Barnes Recorded and Oceanic Studios Mixed at Cryptonic Studios Music Video Recording: Filmed and edited by Rhys Bennett at High Voltage Photography Produced by Neil Donovan Lachy Doley on Keyboards Joel Burton on Bass Adam Church on Drums Ray Beadle on Guitar Miranda Carey on Vocals Filmed on the Harbour Spirit by Sydney Harbour Cruises - Harbourside Cruises

Frogwings Kickin Bach (Butch Trucks side project w/Derek Trucks/Oteil Burbridge/Jimmy Herring)

 

Happy Birthday, Derek Trucks!  I have posted something from this particular group, and did so, many moons ago.  This is Frogwings, the super group Allman Brothers Band side project that was short-lived in the late 1990s and features some top-notch musicians in the band including Derek Trucks and Jimmy Herring on guitars, Oteil Burbridge on bass, Kofi Burbridge on keyboards, and Butch Trucks on drums.  Through their history, albeit brief, they had a couple vocalists, too.  Edwin McCain, and later, John Popper on vocals and harmonica (frontman for the band Blues Traveler).

"We are Frogwings from the swamp." Edwin McCain

Frogwings was a jam band supergroup that Butch Trucks pulled together in 1997. The group toured in May 1997 and included Butch on drums, Jimmy Herring and Derek Trucks on guitar; Count M'Butu and Marc Quiñones on percussion; Edwin McCain guitar/vocals, Oteil Burbridge bass, Jona Herbert keys. A December 1997 tour included Kofi Burbridge on keys (I believe Count M'Butu sat it out). 

Frogwings was a band in the mold of the ABB in spirit and it carried a psychedelic, experimental bent that came directly from its guitarists, Derek Trucks (then just 17) and Jimmy Herring on guitar and Oteil Burbridge on bass. Burbridge joined the Allman Brothers Band for the Summer 1997 tour. Derek Trucks signed on with the ABB for the Summer 1999 tour. And Herring spent Summer 2000 with the band in place of Dickey Betts.

(In 1999, Butch brought Blues Traveler frontman John Popper in to replace McCain and the band recorded its sole album, Croakin' at Toads.)  

 

Horace Silver Quintet, at Antibes Jazz Festival, July 1964 (colorized)

 

A Full Concert Friday this week featuring the Horace Silver Quintet at Antibes Jazz Festival in Antibes, France, in July, 1964.

Tokyo blues 00:00 Pretty eyes 16:19 Señor blues 31:51 No smokin 40:38 Que pasa? 47:25 A mix of two sets probably recorded in 27 and 28th July 1964. Various level of video quality. I could not find "The natives are restless tonight" (may somebody help me) The band:

Horace Silver (piano), Carmell Jones (trumpet), Joe Henderson (tenor sax), Teddy Smith (acoustic double bass), Roger Humphries (drums). from the newspaper "Le Monde" dated 27th July 1964: "Assemblant avec une vigueur parfois furieuse de courtes phrases portées à un haut point d'exacerbation rythmique, Silver traite le piano avant tout comme un instrument de percussion, mais le compositeur est encore plus grand que l'instrumentiste : ses thèmes s'imposent par leur accent de violence, leur couleur à la fois rude et capiteuse, et il excelle à organiser en durée, découpage et ponctuations les interprétations d'un groupe qu'il vient de renouveler judicieusement en faisant appel notamment à Joe Henderson, un saxo ténor inspiré à la fois par Coltrane, Rollins et Yusef Lateef, et qui nous a paru comme la seule révélation de la soirée." "Assembling with sometimes furious vigor short phrases carried to a high point of rhythmic exacerbation, Silver treats the piano above all as a percussion instrument, but the composer is even greater than the instrumentalist: his themes are imposed by their accent of violence, their color both harsh and heady, and he excels at organizing in duration, division and punctuation the interpretations of a group that he has just judiciously renewed by calling in particular on Joe Henderson, a tenor sax inspired by both by Coltrane, Rollins and Yusef Lateef, and who seemed to us to be the only revelation of the evening."

Tribute to Oscar Pettiford - Billy Taylor Trio

 

From Bret "Jazz Video Guy" Primack.  

http://www.billytaylorjazz.com presents a Tribute to Oscar Pettiford featuring Billy Taylor's Trio and Billy's composition, "One for the Woofer," featuring Chip Jackson on bass.

Oscar Pettiford In 1942 he joined the Charlie Barnet band and in 1943 gained wider public attention after recording with Coleman Hawkins on his "The Man I Love." He also recorded with Earl Hines and Ben Webster around this time. He and Dizzy Gillespie led a bop group in 1943. In 1945 Pettiford went with Hawkins to California, where he appeared in The Crimson Canary, a mystery movie known for its jazz soundtrack. He then worked with Duke Ellington from 1945 to 1948 and for Woody Herman in 1949 before working mainly as a leader in the 1950s. As a leader he inadvertently discovered Cannonball Adderley. After one of his musicians had tricked him into letting Adderley, an unknown music teacher, onto the stand, he had Adderley solo on a demanding piece, on which Adderley performed impressively. Pettiford is considered the pioneer of the cello as a solo instrument in jazz music. He first played the cello as a practical joke on his band leader [Woody Herman] when he walked off stage during his solo spot and came back, unexpectedly with a cello and played on that. In 1949, after suffering a broken arm, Pettiford found it impossible to play his bass, so he experimented with a cello a friend had lent him. Tuning it in fourths, like a double bass, but one octave higher, Pettiford found it possible to perform during his rehabilitation (during which time his arm was in a sling) and made his first recordings with the instrument in 1950. The cello thus became his secondary instrument, and he continued to perform and record with it throughout the remainder of his career. He recorded extensively during the 1950s for the Debut, Bethlehem and ABC Paramount labels among others, and for European companies after he moved to Copenhagen in 1958. Along with his contemporary, Charles Mingus, Pettiford stands out as one of the most-recorded bass-playing ...
