View DJ Peter's profile |
Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

After wrapping up a gig at a Holiday Inn one evening in 1987, he went to see Jimmy Smith perform at a club. When Mr. Smith saw the young player in the audience, still dressed in a tuxedo and sitting anxiously beside his guitar, he invited him up to play.
Mr. Malone started out cocky, he later recalled, but couldn’t keep up with the renowned organist.
After Mr. Malone stepped down from the stage, red-faced, Mr. Smith turned to the crowd.
“Now, whenever we let youngsters sit in with us, we always like to make sure that they learn something,” Mr. Smith said. “Now, did you learn something, junior?”
“I said, ‘Yessir,’” Mr. Malone recalled.

The powers that be have no interest in types of personalities, and they wouldn't know how to identify one, even if it hocked loogies in their faces. They choose according to degree of advertiser interest.
