Erroll Garner, Cool Blues

Welcome to Something Blue. I’m Hairy Larry and I’ve got the blues, for you.

Erroll Garner, Dark Shadows
Carla Bley, Copycat

Now that’s what I’m talking about, Carla Bley playing the title track from her album, “Copycat”. Kicking us off tonight we heard Erroll Garner and Charlie Parker play “Cool Blues” and “Dark Shadows” with Earl Coleman singing.

Something Blue is broadcast on KASU, 91.9 FM and streaming on the internet at kasu.org.

Coming up next we’ll hear Michel Sardaby play “Spindrift” and “Song For My Children” from his album, “Gail”. Then we’ll hear Theo Croker do “It’s Not You It’s Me (But You Didn’t Help)”.

Carla Bley, And Then One Day
Carla Bley, Life Goes On

All right now, that’s Carla Bley with two of her songs, “And Then One Day” and “Life Goes On”. She is one of my favorite contemporary composers with roots that go way back in the history of jazz.

Closing the show we’ll hear Erroll Garner and Charlie Parker play “Hot Blues” followed by Michell Sardaby doing “Welcome New Warmth” and Theo Croker playing “Visions”. The Theo Croker songs are from his album Afro Physicist, one of the albums I downloaded from the library. Until next time this is Hairy Larry reminding you once again, blues is the mainstream.
