Cold Specks

Jan 3, 7:54pm Obscure Sound
With a creaky yet tranquil voice that sounds like it should belong to a 43-year-old, British music moguls are expecting big things from 23-year-old Al Spx. Hailing from Canada, the home of many other strong acoustic talents, Spx describes her sound as "doom soul". She currently resides in London and calls her project Cold Specks,

Mahalia Jackson - “How I Got Over” (video)

Oct 24, 2011, 2:00pm PopMatters
Mahalia Jackson--How I got over LIVE
Today, Sam Phillips puts the spotlight on some of her favorite film and music. "How I Got Over" is my favorite Mahalia Jackson song; it was sung as an amazing incantation before Dr. Martin Luther King gave his famous "I Have A Dream" speech at the 1963 March on Washington. The video and audio are not high def here, but I am hoping it will inspire you to look for the documentary on her. Aretha Franklin recorded my favorite version of this song on her live gospel album.

Eat to the Beat: Jazz Fest Licks its Chops

Apr 21, 2011, 8:44am Uncensored Interview Blog
The 2011 New Orleans Jazz Fest has released its menu, and it's only fitting that the vittles will be as ambitious and eclectic as the rest of the line-up. The 10-day cultural mosh pit of musicians, cooks and artisans-inspired by gospel singer Mahalia Jackson and Duke Ellington's impromptu and legendary 1970 post-Louisiana Heritage Fair revelry-has cranked it up a notch this year. Scheduled for April 29-May 1 and May 5-8 with a motley crew of musicians like Arcade Fire, Willie Nelson, Maceo Parker and Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue, the fest is also hosting [...]

Battle fit

Mar 15, 2011, 1:45pm Diddy Wah
Battle fit mp3: Mahalia Jackson - Joshua Fit The Battle Born in New Orleans in 1911, Mahalia Jackson became the most successful gospel singer of her time. She sang at JFK's inaugural ball and at the March on Washington, where Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his "I Have a Dream" speech. She also sang at King's funeral. On today's selection, recorded in the mid 1950s, Jackson is backed by the Falls-Jones Ensemble. I've always enjoyed the Mildred Jones' rollicking piano on this recording, taken from an EP released on the Philips label around 1960. Although [...]

Crosby would record it a number of additional times - here's one of those versions: Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney, "Silver Bells" Here's what Wikipedia has to say: Silver Bells is a classic Christmas song, composed by [...]

NOTE TAKING

NOTE TAKING I recently ripped some vinyl into mp3s, and below is a selection of some of those albums. Since these are old records and I'm too lazy to digitally clean up each song, you'll hear a crackling on each track, but perhaps a few of you will think that's charming. The password, as always, is Chasing.Red. - two words, two capitals, two periods. Enjoy, and drop me a note with your reactions to any of the albums. Song: Empty Bed Blues Part 1 by Bessie Smith [...]
