Dueling Hits – Jazz –through the years | Eastern NC Now

Jazz is a form of music, which starts with laying down a basic track, then adding different layers of interpretation. Often it includes multiple instruments weaving and bobbing around the basic melody. Great jazz is when several musicians take off on an uncharted journey through the basic chords u

Both Keith and Mick are dead but no one has told them yet. They are the inspiration for the new Zombie craze I guess.

Now that is a truth: I've got no booze in the blender. I used too but it' all over now.

Speaking of the Stones, there is this funny line now: "We need to start worrying about what kind of World that we are going to leave Keith Richards".

No, he'll probably never reach that level again. I have never been a Parrothead or even a Deadhead and I only really enjoyed maybe four of his songs which are the popular ones played over and over again. I saw him at the GSEMH (see my post) before he was a huge hit.

The one thing you can say about Jimmy is that he found his niche he stuck with it. He is a fairly affable guy who just found a way to make money and continued to do it. He doesn’t take himself too seriously but people follow him around and listen to the same songs over and over again at his concerts. I think it is a nostalgic wish to revisit a time and place you never were at. I read his autobiography which was written in 1999 " A pirate looks at 50". It's got some good stories but basically it's a story of Jimmy Buffett making a lot of money buying a lot of planes and having a great life living in the niche that he created.

Excuse me, I've got no booze in the blender. I used too but it' all over now.

I loved "Living and Dying in 3/4's Time", and then everything started sounding like much the same after that. Do you think Jimmy will ever write another "Come Monday"?

I have seen Buffett twice in concert when he and I were much younger, and it just was not that good of quality.

When I saw Eric Clapton's shows, when he and I were much younger, it sounded just like, and, sometimes better that the recordings.

Plus, almost all of the people that treat Buffett as so wonderful know nothing about music and other stuff; trust me on this one. Try going to a restaurant and that is all they play, and often loud. "It's not quite my tempo": beaufortcountynow.com

I plead guilty to enjoying a few JB songs and I may have spent a few quarters conveying a subliminal message or two.

Jazz is an acquired taste that, in my opinion, has to be learned, and under certain criteria: 1) you need to be exposed to it early in life, or; 2) you need to know something real about music, or; 3) you need to be able to play music, or; 4) you need to really love good rock'n'roll.

If one believes that Jimmy Buffett is your foray into serious rock'n'roll, you probably won't know squat about Charlie Parker or Dizzy Gillespie.

In music, I equate everything back to the really great rock'n'roll, which is the reason, I appreciate so many other genres of music; if it rocks, it rocks. From Dizzy Gillespie to Ludwig to Amadeus to Union Station, it's all rock'n'roll to me.

Not so much Jimmy Buffett.
