Re: Groovin' at the I Spot -

Digging a lot of Hoagy Carmichael lately : true mod jazz. Folk always bang on about the obvious Mose Allison influence on Georgie Fame but what about this guy? Talk about a hip delivery.

Re: Groovin' at the I Spot -

^Thanks Hank. That clip is fantastic. Being a guitarist myself it was Barney Kessel and Wes Montgomery that first turned me on to the excitement of Jazz in the first place. Then I caught Tal Farlow playing live in a tiny club and there was no turning back! Everything seemed to click for me.

Re: Groovin' at the I Spot -

Piano is my first instrument, but I started playing guitar as well in my teens. My first "jazz guitar" love was Joe Pass. His version of Giant Steps was a revelation.

Couldn't find the exact version but here is his rendition of one that all of us know:

Re: Groovin' at the I Spot -

Quite possibly the first hard-bop track:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vJEoJye3Eo

Horace Silver and soon to be called Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers - Safari (1952)

AQG: That Martin Denny was one hip piano percussion playing Tiki-lounge cool hep cat.  Never heard of him before and the inspiration to the Yellow Light Orchestra. Odd, the girl is exactly the erotically exotic type I thought I would marry:

Re: Groovin' at the I Spot -

Ace,

The song you linked is nice but a bit slow.  See if you can find "Swamp Fire".  If you get interested in the Exotica Movement, you might also check out Les Baxter.

Re: Groovin' at the I Spot -

It was a bit slow, because it was a spacious mood piece that inspired Ryuichi Sakamoto and David Sylvian. I found Swamp Fire:

And I will check out Les Baxter, thanks for the tip.

Re: Groovin' at the I Spot -

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gwmu067JNok   -  I love it when our guys play with a cliche and create great Art.

Hank - You get on with Mr. Piller OK?

I've not tried to involve him yet... He is a man of moods, no? Nothing wrong with that. Suspect he may be too Mod for me as I sit here in my Hooked & Lapped Tweed cocoon...  wink
