Something I Heard Today Julie London – Cry Me a River

Julie London - Cry Me A River
From rap born in the 90s yesterday, to soul from the 50s today, I like to think that we're nice and diverse here on either/or. Others say it's inconsistent, but nuts to them! Everyone likes smoky soul, right? Particularly when it's the quintessential example of it, thanks to Julie London here. Amazing what you can do with just a bass, a guitar and one hell of a sultry voice. Something I Want Today - Buy this tune

Gimme Five: Christmas music for people who are sick of Christmas music

Mino Cinelu and Dianne Reeves - Twelve Days Of Christmas
By now, you've probably had just enough of the same old holly jolly stuff. Mark Saleski is here to help with some suggestions from off the beaten path ...

Song Swarm: Blue Moon

The story of Blue Moon — its transition from a movie song that was rewritten several times to jazz song and then pop hit — was told in The Originals Vol. 40 , which included the first version, The Bad In Every Man, sung on film by Shirley Ross. This collection of 38 versions covers all manner of approaches. There are the early jazz interpretations, most of them with vocals (though Gene Krupa, Django Reinhardt and in 1944 the Cozy Cole Allstars do it instrumentally). Then it became something of a torchsong number in the hands of [...]

Song Swarm: Light My Fire

Song Swarm: Light My Fire The story goes that Jim Morrison hated Light My Fire, The Doors’ great breakthrough hit. Recorded in August 1966, it was released in January 1967, at the dawn of the so-called Summer of Love. If it was true that Morrison disliked it, I’d sort of concur with his judgment. In fact, he didn’t hate the song, but resented that he had only a small part in writing his band’s signature hit (most of it was written by guitarist Robby Krieger). I don’t like The Doors much, and have more respect than affection for their version of Light My [...]

une éclipse lunaire mix

une éclipse lunaire mix In 2134 B.C.E., the earliest known record of a full moon lunar eclipse was recorded in China. They explained what they witnessed as a sky dragon ingesting the moon. Blood would fill the moon and splutter all over, and the people would beat mirrors and drums and shoot arrows into the night sky to make the beast regurgitate and return the moon to its place. Tonight: a full moon lunar eclipse on the winter solstice begins around 2:30 am my time. Under the domed sky of the longest night of the year, we will clap our hands, [...]

Julie London – Yummy Yummy Yummy

Julie London – Yummy Yummy Yummy Mad Men enthusiasts looking for a musical equivalent of Betty Draper need look no further than Julie London.  She's probably best known for lounge-tastic numbers like the mid-50s "Cry Me A River", but she'd become decidedly slinkier by the time she recorded her 29th- and  final - album for Liberty Records in 1969. "Yummy, Yummy, Yummy" is one of my favourite Julie tracks.  As a kid, I'd always loved the original bubblegum version by The Ohio Express (the one 8-track (!) tape my grandma had that wasn't Barry Manilow), but Julie's version, with her [...]

Invitation to the Blues

Invitation to the Blues "My heart was all dressed up to go dancing..." Ah, Julie. If there's a better opening line to a song about having the blues, then I don't think I've heard it. I like the duality of this pair of songs; they're like binary opposites female/male, slick/rough, knowing/desperate. I can't help but imagine Julie singing this with a wry smile on her lips - and you don't get that with Tom, do you? Both utterly, utterly melancholy - so just the ticket. Listen: Julie London - [...]

Top 10: The Music of Mad Men

Top 10: The Music of Mad Men For the past week or so I have been playing catch up on the critically adored series Mad Men. In case you were unaware the show returns to AMC on Sunday night and I desperately want to finish season 2 by the time that rolls around. Since that's the case I'm not throwing descriptions on to the songs today, most should speak for themselves, and most are pretty awesome. For fans of the show I hope these songs bring you back to your favorite episodes, for non-fans I hope you like listening anyway. As always feel free to drop in [...]

Pondering Julie London

Pondering Julie London How someone is remembered - as an actress who also sang or a singer who also acted - is a question that has occurred to me more than once. It's not always easy to answer when considering the many ladies who have dipped a toe in both ponds. And just to muddy that pond water a little more, let's say that to qualify as an actress requires acting fame, rather than skill — otherwise we'd be here all day.  Just to be fair, we'll also judge singers by their performing success rather than by the quality of their voices. [...]

Midnight shakes the memory

Midnight shakes the memory As a madman shakes a dead geranium. I seem to have done a fair bit of dead geranium shaking recently (literally and figuratively) and my northern exploits have meant that I've seen a fair whack of midnight sun. So, let's have some songs about the witching hour to celebrate the nights drawing in.

Susan Boyle Sings “Cry Me A River”

Susan Boyle Sings “Cry Me A River” No, not the Justin Timberlake song - the 1950's blues ballad, made famous by Julie London and later recorded by Ella Fitzgerald among others. Continuing on the tidal wave that is the Susan Boyle phenomenon, a song has been unearthed that she recorded in 1999 for a charity CD - of which apparently only 1000 copies were made. Talk about a hot item to have right about now. The story of Susan's version of "Cry Me A River" was broken as an exclusive by The Daily Record . [...]

State Songs #11: Georgia

State Songs #11: Georgia My teenage obsession with REM means I've always had a soft spot for their home state and thanks to my 'American cousin' John Barner living there I've been able to visit a few times. I vividly remember my first trip to Georgia , traveling along the kudzu lined highway in a Greyhound bus, listening to a tape of Murmur on my Walkman and being reminded of all the weird Southern images conjured up in those early REM songs. Georgia has inspired hundreds of [...]
