  2. This shit's so good. http://bit.ly/i7jKX6 Willie Nelson and Wynton Marsalis – Two Men With The Blues History has proven that Willie Nelson will duet with pretty much anybody who comes along, and while this open-hearted open mind sometimes backfires, more often than not it results in some of his most sublime recordings. Two Men with the Blues, his album with jazz trumpeter Wynton Marsalis recorded over a two-night stand at Jazz at Lincoln Center on January 12 and 13, 2007, belongs in the latter category, standing as truly one of the most special records in either Nelson’s or Marsalis’ catalog. If the pair initially seem like an odd match, it’s only because Wynton long carried the reputation of a purist, somebody who was adamant against expanding the definition of jazz, which cast him as the opposite of Willie, who never found a border he couldn’t blur. Marsalis mellowed over the years, but it’s also true that he and Nelson share a common background in jazz and the Great American Songbook, so this pairing plays naturally, providing equal measures of comfort and surprise. The engine for this music is Marsalis’ band — pianist Dan Nimmer, drummer Ali Jackson, bassist Carlos Henríquez, and saxophonist Walter Blanding — with Nelson bringing his harmonica player Mickey Raphael along, which is enough to give this a flavor that’s quite distinct from a typical Marsalis session without being foreign. Similarly, this isn’t quite alien territory for Nelson either, as the repertoire relies heavily on blues standards, including a pair of tunes he cut on his jazzy breakthrough, Stardust (the title track and “Georgia on My Mindâ€), plus he’s always veered close to jazz in his vocal and guitar phrasings. All this means that Two Men with the Blues has the warm comfort of a reunion and the freshness of a new collaboration, feelings that are palpable as soon as the album kicks off with a loose yet nimble reading of Jimmy Reed’s “Bright Lights, Big City.†It’s a subtle arrangement that doesn’t draw attention to its unique touches, something that’s also true of the flashier take on Hank Williams’ “My Bucket’s Got a Hole in It,†which lurches and careens like a New Orleans marching band, coming to a highlight when Marsalis throws in a few lines from “Keep on Knockin’†for good measure. These sly spins on standards, along with a jump blues reworking of Merle Travis’ “That’s All†(first heard on a Willie Nelson record back in 1969), are balanced by numbers that are perhaps a bit more expected but are no less delightful, as “Night Life†is turned into a showcase for Wynton and the bandmembers sound as good skipping through “Caldonia†as they do laying back on “Basin Street Blues.†It’s music that flows so easily it’s perhaps easy to take for granted, but Two Men with the Blues is truly something special, as it captures two masters enjoying their common ground while spurring each other to hear old sounds in new ways. It’s a flat-out joy. – Stephen Thomas Erlewine mp3@320 Tracklist 01 . Bright Lights Big City 02 . Night Life 03 . Caldonia 04 . Stardust 05 . Basin Street Blues 06 . Georgia On My Mind 07 .

  3. Still winning? Whoa! Huge props for not letting-up and still chasing that eighth spot (although I still think it's outta reach). These clutch wins are doing lots for these players' confidence and experience to roll into next year.
  4. Really enjoying this 3-26 show today. Great drum work in Terrapin. Dark Star > Eclipse > Mtns of the Moon > Dark Star Phil is in fine form throughout!
  5. This cracked me up: BBC Comedy takes us inside a support group for old-shcool Radiohead fans who aren’t too enthusiastic about The Kings of Limbs album.
  6. yup, i hear ya Ollie. Watched his recent update video and he says that the recent London shows were shot in HD 3D ... so, you'll get to see/hear it eventually anyway. There is an orchestral rehearsal at the end of it. Sounds really good, but not at a big outdoor shed.
  7. trippy as fuck ... it ain't moving
  8. Here's a setlist from a few nights ago. Looks good to me.
  9. I don't know Ollie. Some questions were asked about that on the TMB/Slippermen lists too. Steep $$, but maybe I'll grab a cheap lawn closer to the show date or on it You thinking of going?
  10. This is a fantastic live performance from 3 greats: http://bit.ly/dPjG6R Willie Nelson and Wynton Marsalis Feat. Norah Jones – Here We Go Again Once in a while the stars align and something magical happens…as on the night Jazz at Lincoln Center presented a salute to the late, great bluesman, Ray Charles. Two musical iconoclasts, Willie Nelson and Wynton Marsalis, along with the stunning songstress Norah Jones, collectively brought their unique musical perspective to the legendary artist’s hits such as “Hallelujah I Love Her Soâ€, “Hit the Road Jack,†and “Unchain My Heart.†Country music legend Willie Nelson and Pulitzer Prize-winning jazz artist and Jazz at Lincoln Center Artistic Director Wynton Marsalis share more in common than their multiple GRAMMY® awards. They also share great respect and admiration for the late musical pioneer Ray Charles. Nelson and Marsalis joined musical forces for a two-night Jazz at Lincoln Center concert event at New York City’s Frederick P. Rose Hall, home of Jazz at Lincoln Center. Their set list explored the legacy of Charles, cleverly sequencing the songs to tell the story of a love affair from beginning to end and beyond. This fine idea was made finer by the inclusion of fellow multiple GRAMMY® winner Norah Jones, whose style suggests a middle ground between Nelson and Marsalis. The sold out performance was captured and the resulting footage expertly mixed and mastered for the brand new album. The concert can be viewed in its entirety on Sunday, March 27th at 8pm ET on HD Net. mp3@VBR Tracklist 1. Hallelujah 2. Come Rain or Come Shine 3. Unchain My Heart 4. Cryin†Time 5. Loosing Hand 6.
