A Young Girl

Noel Harrison- "A Young Girl"
I first fell in love with Charles Aznavour years ago when I saw him in Shoot The Piano Player . I didn't know then that he was one of the greatest French singers of the latter twentieth-century. How could I know? In the film, he is so quiet, playing his piano. At 85, he's still performing concerts, and had appeared in over 6o films. Aznavour wrote "Une Enfant," a song as cautionary tale: a young girl of sixteen falls in with the wrong guy, he leads her astray, and she winds up "lying here [...]

People of Soul

Dapo Torimiro performs w/Oscar Brown Jr. on TavisSmileyShow
More from Oscar . He talked about the children of children , and about approaching death . He was fierce and strong and proud. He apologised . His words wrestle and fall, lapping over each other, a rhythm and purpose and song. It was neither poetry nor music alone, but both . He was a social activist, and acutely politically aware. 'You need to have myths,' Oscar once said . 'You need to have people who [...]

Sitting on My La La Waiting on the Ya Ya Three small things that have kept me from totally losing it, this week: The Five Du-Tones - Chicken Astronaut (mp3) ( buy ) Oscar Brown, Jr. - But I Was Cool (mp3) ( buy ) The first is a 1964 b-side from a St. Louis soul quintet most noted for recording "Shake a Tail Feather" the year before. ("Feather," a bigger hit for everyone who did it after the Du-T's, gets a shout at the end.) "Astronaut" is hilarious, adheres to its little comedy concept (there's [...]

Dig This...

Dig This... The brown western shirt with the diamond buttons that I'm currently wearing doesn't quite fit in with this post because it ain't bringing the funk. The kind of funk that makes you strut down funky Broadway. Back in a posting on December 21, 2006 I called What It Is! Funky Soul And Rare Grooves (1967-1977) the best box set of the year. That still holds true because a Doctor never goes back on his word. In these past few coffee infused days I've been doing a lot more listening to this box and it is better than [...]
