Nina Simone ‘Little Girl Blue’ #nowplaying #1959

Nina’s extraordinary debut album is happening right now. Based on the size of the packaging I assumed this was a 2-CD set. Turns out it’s a solitary disc containing the original album plus bonus tracks, along with 80 pages of liner notes and photos- a fascinating read.

I haven’t joined in lately for the weekly record share battle between #superfriendssunday and my team - #legionofdoomsday - but here we go.

The SFS crew decided to share recordings that highlight great backup singing. But on Little Girl Blue, it’s Nina and only Nina delivering the sultry vocals (and world class piano playing). It would be a shame to have it any other way.

Shout out to fellow Doomer @najdier for gifting me this special recording.

Tony Rice #nowspinning #1977

The Man. The Myth. The Legend. The Shirt!

I still can’t get over the fact that for 96% of my life I was blissfully unaware of Tony’s magic. Thanks to this community he’s shot up to near the top of the leaderboard of my favorite artists.

This reissue sounds terrific. Whenever Kevin Gray gets a hold of the original master tapes you know he’ll work wonders on it.

Tony’s got some elite guitar chops. It’s so fluid and I don’t think that even Billy can do it like this (which is in no way a knock on him). Tony is full on shredding but in the most mellow way.

He’s also a great singer. His vocals and diction are so clear that it also fits in as a counter to the #superfriendssunday theme:

Mondegreens - meaning misheard lyrics like Hold me closer Tony Danza. All the words are clear as day here in spite of his Southern draw.

Andy Williams ‘Moon River & Other Great Movie Themes’ #nowspinning #1962

Well I don’t do this very often but I decided to purposely listen to an album I thoroughly dislike.

That’s because this week the #superfriendssunday crew decided to share ‘Meh’ albums… as in a 5 out of 10 mediocrity.

Most of my #legionofdoomsday constituents are countering with a 10/10 masterpiece record.

I’ll go the other way and share something I think is just bad. I did give old Andy a chance though believe me. I sat here and tried to get into it.

I’ll admit he’s a talented Broadway type singer and all, but the Schmaltz is real with this guy. He lays it on THICK. But yeah, this is what my grandparents were digging during the JFK administration. Simpler times.

Let me know if I’m wrong here. Where the Andy Williams die hards at? And do you ever just put on a crappy record for sh*ts and giggles?

Martin Denny ‘Exotica Vol III’ #nowspinning #1959

🌴Let it be known that I am fully embracing the 1950s and 60s Exotica vibe. This is my first record in that genre but will be on the hunt for Martin Denny, Enoch Light, Les Baxter, Arthur Lyman etc. I’m also going to need a leopard print robe and a big totem pole here to complete the aesthetic.

This theme fits in nicely as a counter to #superfriendssunday who are posting records from their hometown heroes.

Meanwhile I’m going way back in time to mid Century America’s concept of music from faraway places. I participate in dry-ish January so no Mai Thai currently. 🏝️

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard ‘Nonagon Infinity’ #nowspinning #2016

Sunday spin of the very first @kinggizzard album I ever bought. The #superfriendssunday gang picked ANATOMY as their record share theme of the week, so some of us in #legionofdoomsday chose to counter with robots.

I immediately thought of Robot Stop. I never need much of an excuse to throw this on the turntable - so here we go. This is getting me going as I prep for a Christmas performance this afternoon. Have a great day.

The Ventures ‘Walk, Don’t Run Vol 2’ #nowspinning #1964

Guess I’ve been neglecting my #legionofdoomsday duties lately so let me get back in there with all of the opposing of the #superfriendssunday crew and what not.

Their theme is the dearly departed Ozzy so I’ll counter with some sunshine surf pop which is as far away from Ozzy’s heavy metal vibe that I can come up with.

By the way I bought this record in person from my fellow Doomer Bill aka @2nd_wind_records

Primus “Sailing The Seas Of Cheese” #nowspinning #1991

#superfriendssunday are doing time signatures today : 6/8

Just so we’re all clear the first number 6 indicates how many beats are in a measure. The 8 means that the EIGHTH note gets the beat.

6/8 is a lovely feel for waltzes and such. It flows.

1-2–3-4-5-6 (a little emphasis on 1 & 4)

1-2–3-4-5-6

1-2–3-4-5-6 etc.

Odd meter? Not so much.

Which brings me to my required #legionofdoomsday counter post:

Let’s talk about 11/8.

I ask you to turn on the audio for this sick groove.

Not so flowing. It’s off. Almost like riding a bike with something stuck in one tire.

Thats cuz it’s 11 beats in each measure. Eighth note still getting the beat. Okay. But at this tempo it doesn’t make sense to count to 11 over and over.

Instead let’s break it down:

3 + 3 + 3 + 2 =11

So you’d count it this like:

1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2
1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2
1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2 Etc.

And THAT folks, is how you do the music.
