Japanese Skokiaan - Spike Jones And His City Slickers

Tchaikovsky Symphony No.6 "Pathétique" - Kurt Masur / LGO (1987) Tchaikovsky said he wept while writing this. Nine days after it's premier, it is suspected he killed himself by knowingly drinking water infected with Cholera. Others disagree. We'll never know. But his last composition is a great one.

Here's one done in his studio, where Jacob plays all the instruments and sings all the vocals. Talented guy. "Don't You Worry 'Bout A Thing" - Jacob Collier

I never heard of this guy until today. He's a great performer and a fine musician as well. His crowd involvement is great as well. This one gives me faith in the younger generation. If you don't know about him, like me yesterday, it's worth checking out just for the show. With The Love In My Heart - Jacob Collier

BeBop - Charlie Parker

My favorite jazz vocalist's lyrics and take on a great Oliver Nelson song. Richie Cole plays the sax and the Muse All-Stars fill in the rest. Stolen Moments - Mark Murphy

Paranoid Android - Radiohead

Bac-Hen?

Here is a medley for isolating couples of opposite genres. Boogie Nights / Havin' My Baby / What Child Is This? And I can't believe in the first list I missed: Fever and Doc Of The Bay Notes

More from the Cape Verde Islands: Cutch Cutch - Armandio Cabral

If You See Kay - April Wine Association: Repeat the title 10 times fast if you haven't gotten it already https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=

"Saint James Infirmary" - Bobby "Blue" Bland not the original artist, but I like his version

She looks too cute and young to be able to play bass that well. Quite a talented lady!

Basso Profondo

A complete opposite? "Surf City" - Jan And Dean

Only if it's harmony grits

I love Colón's music. He was won of the Fania All-Stars at one time and so was Celia Cruz. Although there were Puerto Rican and Cuban musicians on the roster, the music became known as Nuyorican (New York-Rican). IMO it's not her best, but it's her most famous song... "Quimbara" - Celia Cruz

Bei Mir Bist Du Schön - The Andrews Sisters. When I was a tot and my mom played this record, I thought they were singing "My Dear Mister Shane." Their songs are definitely dated, but the Andrews Sisters were phenomenally good at what they did. Their consonants are pronounced so exactly together that it sounds like one singer with multiple voices. Even their vibratos are often in sync. Harmonies are good and intonation is excellent. Plus there is a lot of playful expression. I think these gals are the all-time best of that genre of music.

"The Valley Road" - Bruce Hornsby And The Range

"One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" - John Lee Hooker

Thanks for the translation. I actually own this CD. They released a second one, but it doesn't have the same magic. There is a lot of great Cape Verde Islands music. Here is another Cape Verde song I like from a very good CD find I also own. "Africa Mamae" - Jovino Dos Santos

Raiz - Simentera Very different music from the Cape Verde Islands. I can't understand a word of it, since it's in an Afro-Portuguese language, but I love the vocals, the vocal arrangement especially near the end, the very nice acoustic guitar work, and even the dissonant sax chords. I can't get enough of this one.

"Time Was" - John Coltrane

"Double Trouble" - Big Bill Broonzy
