No offence to Don’s Tunes but the text reads about AI and I am so tired of reading and giving it Oxygen! There is NOBODY further away from AI than NEIL IMHO and this reminds us what the message is!
Music is the message and remember

The B-52’s - 1979 - 1983 | URBANASPIRINES: A Kostas special profile

 A KOSTAS SPECIAL

The B-52's: 1979 - 1983


Kostas says: "Formed on an October night in 1976 following drinks at an Athens, GA, Chinese restaurant, the band played their first gig at a friend's house on Valentine's Day 1977. Naming themselves after Southern slang for exaggerated 'bouffant" hairdos, the newly-christened B-52s (Fred Schneider, Kate Pierson, Keith Strickland, Cindy Wilson and Ricky Wilson) began weekend road trips to New York City for gigs at CBGB's and a handful of other venues. Making music that's full of quirks but also friendly and fun to dance to, the B-52s filter surf music, '60s pop, vintage soul, and low-budget sci-fi soundtracks through a pop culture kaleidoscope. Among the first American new wave acts to break through to mainstream visibility, the B-52s became one of the biggest success stories to emerge from the American underground in the late '70s.

THREE LITTLE FISHIES ~ The Smoothies (1939)

A beloved song favourite of Frankie Howerd

THREE LITTLE FISHIES ~ The Smoothies (1939)

THREE LITTLE FISHIES ~ The Smoothies ~ Hal Kemp & his Orchestra~ recorded on March 28,1939- released in May 1939~ Victor Records. The group originated as Babs & Her Brothers in the early 1930's and became The Smoothies in approx. 1938. As The Smoothies, they were the featured vocal group with Hal Kemp & his Orchestra and it was while with Kemp's orchestra that the song THREE LITTLE FISHIES was first introduced. The trio at this time consisted of Arlene "Babs" Johnson, Charlie Ryan and Little Ryan. Interestingly , when the trio was using the name Babs & Her Brothers, the "Babs" part was, at different times, being handled by Blanche Redwine, Rosalind Stuart, or a number of other female vocalists.  
The up beat , THREE LITTLE FISHIES, was also recorded by Kay Kyser & his Orchestra on the Columbia Records label, also in 1939 and is probably the better known version of the song. However, The Smoothies version is still excellent. 
THREE LITTLE FISHIES was composed by tenor saxophonist / vocalist / composer / lyricist, Saxie Dowell, who was a member of Hal Kemp's orchestra before forming his own orchestra around the end of 1939. He was also the composer of the well known novelty tune PLAYMATES. Band leader, Hal Kemp, was born on March 27, 1904 and passed away on December 21, 1940. While driving from The Cocoanut Grove in Los Angeles to the Mark Hopkins Hotel in San Francisco on December 19th, Kemp was caught up in some heavy fog and was involved in a head-on collision. He died from his injuries two days later.  
The Kemp Orchestra , vocalists, including The Smoothies, were now apart of the Art Jerrett Orchestra, as the Hal Kemp Orchestra was soon to be led by Jerrett , just a few months after Kemp's passing.


Frankie’s version!!!

Jack Bruce - Weird of Hermiston (Songs To A Tailor)

  . . . .another visit to an album bought when it came out . . .I always adored the combination of Jack and his full blown musical outpouring with the poetic work of Pete Brown (Cream, Jack and so on and his own band Piblokto who I saw live back in the day . . . ) Visitors will recall the ‘Tailor’ referred to is the boutique owner and legendary seamstress and ex of Richard Thompson, Jeannie Franklyn who died in the car crash that killed her and Fairport Drummer 19 year old Martin Lambie. Jack’s album is dedicated to her

Thea Gilmore - The Echo Line . . .single song “Homescar"

You do know about The Echo Line don’t you!? See the Guardian link below if you missed what our Thea is up to! 

Hello friends!

There is a brand new song waiting for you today on The Echo Line.

It’s called Homescar.

It began with a beautiful message left on The Echo Line.

Someone told me about their husband, who’d had the outline of their face tattooed on his body. Not a portrait, the actual outline, drawn by a tattooist while they were lying together cuddled up on the floor.

He calls it their homescar. It’s a word borrowed from limpets. Those tenacious little creatures that travel out into the world and then return again and again to exactly the same place on their rock, eventually wearing a groove, a little hollow into it’s surface.

But the message wasn’t really about the tattoo. It was about a man’s struggle with anxiety and depression and the extraordinary joy and relief of seeing someone you love begin to emerge from a dark place. It was about celebrating this person’s husband and about having somewhere to return to.

I found it so moving. So I wrote a song.

Some of you heard Homescar during the October tour, just me, a guitar and a bow. This recording features my son on strings.

If you’re brand new here, The Echo Line is an ongoing project where people leave anonymous messages about their lives, I listen and sometimes I write songs in response. Those songs appear on a tiny little corner of the internet for a limited time and you can read all about the messages that inspired them as well. They’re not on streaming platforms and there’s nothing to buy or sign up for.

They’re just there to be heard. Until they’re not there any more.

You have 2 weeks.. then it disappears.

And if you’re wondering why on earth I’m doing this, The Guardian published an amazing piece on The Echo Line, the stories people have entrusted to it and what happens when we really listen to one another.

The last Echo Line song He Walks Like War was born from many voices, multiple messages and a great deal of anger about the state of the world.

This one began with a single message about love.

I’m so grateful that we’re building something together where both can exist in the same place.

Go and have a listen to Homescar now.

Much love
