Discovery: Eoin Shannon Invites Us Into His World With Some Barroom Blues

Eoin Shannon’s new album Every Drunk’s Gotta Story isn’t just an introduction to the artist for us, it’s an invitation into a seedy world full of tales of woe.

Discovery: Eoin Shannon Invites Us Into His World With Some Barroom Blues

Randy Blythe of Lamb of God talked with me about the band’s new album Into Oblivion, which began taking shape on election night while he was driving through North Carolina listening to The Cure.

He gets into the record’s themes of modern collapse, the illusion of connection on the internet, and how Nick Cave even crept into his vocal delivery on one track.

Plus: protests, technology, Cold War anxiety, and why Lamb of God has basically been writing about the same problems for 30 years.

Remembering Lester Young (August 27, 1909 – March 15, 1959).

Lester Young Quartet – Slow Motion Blues

Slow Motion Blues is a jazz track recorded by the Lester Young Quartet on March 8, 1951, in New York City. The piece showcases Lester Young’s signature “cool” tenor saxophone style, characterized by a light, airy tone and melodic phrasing that served as a bridge between the swing era and bebop.

The track is a staple of Young’s later career recordings produced by Norman Granz. It is often paired with “Lester Swings,” which was recorded during the same session.

Recording Details
Recording Date: March 8, 1951.
Location: New York City, NY.
Original Label: Released on Norgran Records (Norgran-138) and later featured on Verve Records compilations.

Personnel:
Lester Young – tenor Saxophone
John Lewis – piano
Gene Ramey – bass
Jo Jones – drums.

Jamie Saft Trio - Living The Blues

My greatest influence has been the blues. And that’s a literary influence, because I think the blues is the best literature that we as black Americans have. My interest in Baraka comes from the sixties and the Black Power movement. So it’s more for Baraka’s political ideas, which I loved and still am an exponent of. Through all those years I was a follower, if you will, of Baraka. He had an influence on my thinking.

“You can’t write plays without knowing the craft of playwriting. Once you have your tools, then you still gotta create out of that thing, that impulse.”

The Men I’ve Seen Before

when you hear his car in the driveway and spend the next ten minutes trying to predict which version walks through the door

In fact, my central image is a rabbit in a briar patch, which explains everything I have written. You’re in a jam session situation where you are improvising all the time, at the same time you can improvise better if you have a rich background. I want my knowledge to sing and swing, to evoke, to put you there. Music makes what you want to move. I want my novels to make you want to walk that way, want to be that way, want to react to experiences in that way. That’s a legitimate aesthetic objective. Art is a process through which raw experience is rendered into aesthetic statement.
