It's February, Chicago, 1916, second-string kids from New Orleans, like The Stones at the Marquee, get there to fill a spot, it's fricken freezing, promoter gets overcoats from Sally Ann, all oversized. March lands a gig at Schiller's Cafe. Nick says to ramp it up, invents a new dance fitting the bustle. Gig is white band, lower East Side, what's chances that drunk in the back is Irish? Jazz it up boys, he shouts! Wtf? sez Nick, but he liked the sound of it…
By spring, every teen in Chicago was wearing an oversized overcoat. Louis told Papa Joe in '22 he couldn't play that stuff. Papa Joe said get your ass on that stage and blow.
#GodspeedBrewery may have a Schiller's Moment Wed Jan 28th 6-9 😊

Good Morning #Canada
#HappyBirthday to Paul Shaffer, born OTD in 1949 in Toronto, and raised in Fort William (now part of Thunder Bay), Ontario. Shaffer is a Canadian musician, actor, and comedian who served as David Letterman's musical director, bandleader, and sidekick on Late Night with David Letterman (1982–1993) and Late Show with David Letterman (1993–2015). His father was a jazz aficionado while his mother loved show tunes. When Shaffer was 12, his parents took him on a trip to Las Vegas where they took in Nat King Cole and other shows; this was an experience Shaffer described later as "life changing" and led to his decision to become a performer. He was the musical director for the Toronto production of Godspell, a band member on SNL from 1975 to 1980, and the musical director for The Blues Brothers. Shaffer was inducted into the Order of Canada in 2007.

Eine Woche lang nur ein Album hören, so wie als Jugendlicher, wo Geld knapp aber Zeit üppig war. Vergangene Woche lief hier bevorzugt »Loopified«, das Debüt-Album von Dirty Loops aus Schweden, erschienen bereits 2014 (und auch fast so lange in meinem CD-Regal). Drauf ist etwa eine Stunde gut gelauntes Jazz-Fusion-Rock-Soul-Funk-Feuerwerk eines Trios, wo jeder einzelne der beste Musiker der Band ist. Wenn ihr Dirty Loops nicht kennt: unbedingt mal reinhören.

Wenn Nirvana eine Jazz-Band gewesen wäre, würde sich »Smells Like Teen Spirit« vielleicht so anhören: youtu.be/MJBwQm7kILg?t=500
Aufnahme und Veröffentlichung: WDR. Rundfunkgebühren bei der Arbeit.
Edit: Das ganze Konzert schauen lohnt. Es kommen noch andere verjazzte Pop-/Rock-Cover.

#MarshallAllen interview (2024):
“the space age is here to stay,
there’s no place you can run away.
Run to the rock to hide your face,
rock cried out ‘no hiding place.’
