Blue Rondo a la Turk, sung by Dave Brubeck. This guy is freaking awesome; I couldn't sing like that man if I tried. I especially love how he sings so perfectly in 9/8 time. I play this song in my jazz band, and a lot of the performers have trouble transitioning from 9/8 to 4/4 and back. Pretty good song, I'd say, if a bit tricky to capture the rhythm of.

ReplyDeleteJazz is so impressive sometimes. You rarely get beats like this in other styles of music
ReplyDeleteReally fantasic song. It seems to capture an emotion that seems strange and distant to me... something I've never quite felt before. Brilliant piece of musicianship. Great blog. Let me know when you have a new post. Cheers!
