Song Titles Game - Part II

This is for all non-EC or peripheral-EC topics. We all know how much we love talking about 'The Man' but sometimes we have other interests.

What about me? I'm a huge fan of that LP, played it loads on vinyl back in the day (and not at all in ages, it must be said). There are some great pieces on that record, especially the above and 'Goodbye Porkpie Hat', which did a brilliant job of adding words to the original Mingus piece.

"and she was" - Talking Heads

Sorry Otis. What a great record. And Jaco's soloing on Dry Cleaner from Desmoines makes you want to weep for his untimely passing.

"I never been a rich man, but you know, I always had a few dollars in my pocket" Mingus was exceedingly rich in what he brought to us all. I used to listen to "Cumbia nd Jazz Fusion" as a kid and my friends would leave because it was too weird. Great stuff, always pushing the envelope

That's better! That soloing is great, but it's the opening notes on the above-mentioned that stick with me. His bass on Hejira as a whole is fabulous too - Black Crow stands out. I must get Shadows and Light to hear him live on it.

I love the spoken bits on that LP, and also the rendition of Happy Birthday with the extra 'How old are you?' 'Fifty-four, motherfucker' exchange in it, and then Sue correcting him '53! You're 53 Charlie.'

Know several Mingus records, but not Cumbia and Jazz Fusion. One to check out, clearly.

"Angels with Dirty Faces" - Los Lobos Oh man oh man. This is from their grammy award winning "Kiko and the Lavender Moon" and it is incredible record from beginning to end..
