I believe it was big in Belgium before they started playing these sounds on the Northern scene....

ScarletStreet · 2009-04-04 17:23:21

Speaking of both. I couldn't find any of it on Youtube (didn't look all that hard) but the stuff on Monk plays Ellington is amazing. Read somewhere they had him work with Duke's songs to introduce him a larger audience. What he does with the standards was in some ways more or as revolutionary as his originals. So much for marketing strategies.

Inspired by an older thread I just reread while waiting for the wife to get ready to go out and because I've been listening to a lot of it lately:

Great stuff HBH. Dock Boggs was totally new to me. We are getting in the tall weeds here but I got your hillbilly:

Bill Monroe

Hard Bop Hank · 2009-04-14 16:03:08

Thanks! Dock Boggs is really rough.... He sounds like Rhye Whiskey.... Did you check "Sugar Baby"?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oACJ3VOHmhY&feature=related

John Renbourn played that song on his first LP.... I think they got this stuff from the Anthology of American Folk Music. Influential compilation... "Pretty Polly" is another fave mountain song....

Yeah, Bill Monroe is another great musician, the king of Bluegrass! My father got me hooked on these country sounds...

some more Bluegrass:

ScarletStreet · 2009-04-14 16:57:23

Yeah I checked all of it out. You have me adding more names to my long list of stuff I have to find. I grew up in the rural south and live in Kentucky now. I was exposed to a lot of this stuff at an early age because of my dad. He is sort of progressive and always pointed out the links between all the early music white and black. Country and then Blues is where it started for me.

Hard Bop Hank · 2009-04-14 18:00:16

Then you will surely dig this cat:

Hank Williams Documentary 01

starts with "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry"... still one of my faves....You gotta have the complete collection... and listen to it again and again... this is SONGWRITING! I really miss this depth in contemporary Country music...

I'm spoiling all my "mod credentials" here, haha... just joking... great music is great music... and Hank really had soul!!!

...like all the other Hanks...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NI5EWsU5KaA

The Angel of Death (2 versions) by Hank Williams

...another morbid tune...

Hard Bop Hank · 2009-04-14 18:04:07

I also thought it might be nice to link the Jazz? Soul? thread, so it doesn't get lost in the mix:

ScarletStreet · 2009-04-14 18:25:39

Good idea. Yeah Hank was always played around the house. He's just amazing. Funny, I use to hide my love of all this stuff from my friends when I was a teen. I was a metal kid, but hung out with a lot of skinheads (or what passed for them in the 90s) as well. We all sort of stuck together because we were all outcasts to some degree. Hank is a legend no doubt. Since great music is great music. Here are two more :

Great stuff, Scarlet Street!

OK, last one from me tonight:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_a1lhZhJMWw&feature=related

The History Of Country Music 2 Jimmie Rodgers
This features Jimmie Rodgers, Roy Acuff and the Stanley Brothers!

... My mates don't dig this stuff, too...

When we're DJing it's mainly 50s/60s African American dance music... R&B/Soul/Funk... a bit of the roots, some blues, gospel and lots of jazz, you know... we always start with Jazz, and of course we always play some Tamla stuff later on, a bit of Northern, but not just the Wigan oldies, occasionally some bluebeat/ ska, rock steady, reggae sounds, we used to play some freakbeat/garage sounds, but that's less nowadays... maybe some latin, boogaloo, whatever....

the only "country" stuff, I would play in the clubs would be something like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKxHRbV6jdU

Chet Atkins "Boo Boo Stick Beat'.............

Gotta sleep! Thanks for all the great stuff...
