#bigband — Public Fediverse posts

My good deed for the day (I thought so, anyway): our sports reporter, a kid of about 30, was listening to some decent big band stuff in the office this morning. I talked him into throwing on some Glenn Miller and more precisely this tune. He hadn’t heard of Glenn Miller before our conversation; I shared with him how Maj. Miller died in a plane crash in December of 1944. Next thing I know, the office was jammin Glenn. I think I did OK.

Just reading on Wikipedia what US singer Tony Bennett got up to over his last 20 years or so (Bennett died in 2003). Guy was a stone cold legend. I'm not really into crooning as a genre. But years of listening to Dick Cheese and electroswing has left me an appreciation of big band music, and its suave, finger-snapping crooners.

Rocko Schamoni & L'Orchestre Mirage / Die Vergessenen (2015); Das Album umfasst 13 Songs, die Schamoni und sein Orchester mit viel Liebe zum Detail und Respekt vor dem Originalmaterial arrangiert haben. Die Auswahl reicht von obskuren Stücken der 1960er bis 1980er Jahre, die in Vergessenheit geraten sind. #RockoSchamoni #Jazz #Rock #Schlager #Pop #BigBand #ArtPunk #Staatsakt

Escuchando: nothing (2024), Louis Cole & Metropole Orkest (dirigida por Jules Buckley)

Ayer hice una jornada maratoniana, así que necesitaba algo funky para recuperarme, y esto es justo lo que buscaba. Soy muy fan de Louis Cole así que no sé cómo no lo había visto antes.

No todo es funk, también hay piezas más emocionales. Escuchad`A Pill in the Sea`, por ejemplo. He leído que mezclar el album fue un reto, y me lo imagino. Escúchalo:
