recalling the previous reggae stuff, am gonna submit our favorite "reggae" tune... seeing as how it ain't reggae, and not really boogie either.

the synth bass from reggae woman, which is kinda kewl, necessitated the inclusion o' james jamerson bass.

 

 

HA! Good Fun!

I was just reminiscing about this concert, which I attended a few years back. It was, uh... Interesting. :)

Well, the instrument arrangements look neat. Would be great if they played something with it.

 

I think I will just stick to Les Luthiers for hispanic bands that make their own instruments and joke around. At least they play actual tunes and are funny.

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

Les Luthiers are great, had a chance to see them live a few times and even ran across them once or twice. Obviously, it's a very different matter: one is a (great) musical comedy group, the other is one of the most acclaimed modern classical composers of the second half of the 20th century (John Cage himself deemed him the best). Mind that I am not entirely in disagreement either: I think that out of the 80-minute piece I must have enjoyed about 15 minutes of it because it's where I felt the due actually arrived at something of a dialogue instead of scattershot sounds (I'd say the last minute of the above clip is damn good for example). But yeah, a bit too much filler for the good bits.

I adore Eels, was just listening to Daisies of the Galaxy the other day in the car. It's one of those albums I listen to both when I'm in a good and bad mood. Always seems to lift me or comfort me.

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken
