El Sr GEORGE BARNES y cia

Este martes nos dedicaremos a escuchar a tres guitarristas muy distintos entre si.
GEORGE BARNES pese a que empezo a grabar a los 14 años es un desconocido para la gran mayoria de los melomanos.Rescatamos algunas grabaciones de fines de los 70.

 GEORGE BENSON era uno de los heroes de la guitarra y de la musica pop a finales de los 70.Una epoca muy dificil para la musica de Jazz.Pero BENSON logro participar ademas en la BSO de una de las peliculas mas promocionadas de fines de los 70:"ALL THAT JAZZ" .








Y tambien merece dedicarse algunos minutos al musico de Jazz mas original que dio el continente europeo en el siglo XX:el gran DJANGO REINHARDT y algunas de sus ultimas grabaciones.El 2013 marca sesenta años de su temprana desaparicion.

Este martes a las 19.50,los esperamos en RadioUniversidad 89.0 -FM.

Martes 9 de abril:De regreso

Durante tres decadas practicamente todo el mundo paso por los microfonos de "PIANO-JAZZ",el programa radial de la pianista MARIAN MCPARTLAND.Hoy recuperamos un programa de 1989 que tiene como invitado a LIONEL HAMPTON.

 

Un homenaje en dos niveles distintos fue la grabacion de "TWISTED"en un album de la cantautora JONI MITCHELL.En un nivel:un recuerdo directo para la autora de los versos(ANNIE ROSS)y en otro nivel  el autor de la musica(WARDELL GRAY)  .

 My analyst told me
That I was right out of my head
The way he described it
He said I'd be better dead than live
I didn't listen to his jive
I knew all along
That he was all wrong
And I knew that he thought
I was crazy but I'm not
Oh no

My analyst told me
That I was right out of my head
He said I'd need treatment
But I'm not that easily led
He said I was the type
That was most inclined
When out of his sight
To be out of my mind
And he thought I was nuts
No more ifs or ands or buts

They say as a child
I appeared a little bit wild
With all my crazy ideas
But I knew what was happening
I knew I was a genius...

What's so strange when you know
That you're a wizard at three
I knew that this was meant to be

Now I heard little children
Were supposed to sleep tight
That's why I got into the vodka one night
My parents got frantic
Didn't know what to do
But I saw some crazy scenes
Before I came to
Now do you think I was crazy
I may have been only three
But I was swinging

They all laugh at angry young men
They all laugh at Edison
And also at Einstein
So why should I feel sorry
If they just couldn't understand
The idiomatic logic
That went on in my head
I had a brain
It was insane
Oh they used to laugh at me
When I refused to ride
On all those double decker buses
All because there was no driver on the top

My analyst told me
That I was right out of my head
But I said dear doctor
I think that it's you instead
Because I have got a thing
That's unique and new
To prove it I'll have
The last laugh on you
'Cause instead of one head
I got two
And you know two heads are better than one.
