I love many types of music...jazz most of all...from Pops and Jelly Roll to Bix, Bunny, Muggsy, Duke, Count, Cootie, Little Jazz, Red, Fats, Buck, Sweets, Prez, Lady Day, Hawk, Rex, Lips, Ruby, Yank, Wild Bill, Pee Wee, Bird, Diz, Brownie, Newk, and a bajillion other guys with cool nicknames...oh yaa, and make my funk the P-funk.
Movies
I love movies, but I don't feel patient enough right now to get into listing favorites.
But--here's a nice little movie fer ya (Ruby Braff-trumpet, Louis Armstrong-trumpet/vocal, Jack Teagarden-trombone/vocal, Tony Parenti-clarinet, Marty Napoleon-piano, Chubby Jackson-bass, Cozy Cole-drums. Wow!
here's another--this is legendary bassist Milt Hinton giving a little lesson--check out the slapping at the end, bass players, he was one of the best, and I had the good fortune to know him and play with him. He's even on my first CD("Chapter One" on Arbors Records)!
The Colbert Report, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Sarah Silverman Program, The Simpsons, South Park, King of the Hill, Mad TV, [my ashamed to admit I enjoy 'em category: Celebrity Rehab & Project Runway---shhhh--don't tell anybody], MythBusters... Can I include stuff no longer (or not often enough rerun) on TV? Too bad, I will anyway: Monty Python's Flying Circus, Fawlty Towers, SCTV, Chapelle's Show, In Treatment, The Flavor of Love, I Love New York, the Banana Splits, Nick at Night kinda stuff like: Taxi, Barney Miller, The Odd Couple, Soap, Fernwood Tonight (wish they'd show reruns of that, or put out a DVD set), Pee Wee's Playhouse, Soul Train, Drum Talk (this was a surreal public access cable show in NYC--you're in the fortunate few if you ever saw it). Also good old movies on Turner Classic Movies, bad old movies that are fun to laugh at, horror movies--bad and good...

Louis Armstrong. Norm Cash was when I was a kid (if you know that name you are either old like me, or a baseball/Tigers geek, or both).
I'm a jazz trumpeter. I lead bands of various styles and sizes...I also free-lance, and I'm a regular member of several bands...I also teach private lessons, and compose and arrange music.

"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)
"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff
GIVE PEACE A CHANCE is not just an outdated catch phrase!! It's still as important as when it was first written!!
We can still all do this.....and if you want to be part of the solution...
...then do consider adding my new song, "Think Peace" to your profile. It's easy to do, just go to my profile and right next to the song title on the player is a place to choose "ADD".
The more that this song gets heard, the more that people will stop for a moment, interrupt their routine, and think about peace. If people do this, even just for a moment, there is an effect! So, YOU can be part of the solution....
And if you do add the song to your profile, PLEASE be sure to let me know so I can drop you a note and thank you personally! ;)
Think Peace! Sing Peace! BE peace! Much Love, Andrew
