Cool Jazz OOT

I was 11 years old when The Beatles came out with I Wanna Hold Your Hand and I was smitten. Then came the Stones, Animals, Beach Boys, Lovin’ Spoonful, The Who, Credence, Led Zep and many more. I’ve been a rock ‘n roll nut from the 60’s and thru the 70’s and 80’s. At any rate, as much as I love classic rock ‘n roll, it’s simply gotten stale for me. Over the past 40+ years I’ve heard just about every song produced by the rock gods hundreds or even thousands of times and I’ve been searching for something new. For the past several years I’ve been spending more or more of my listening time on stations that feature Smooth Jazz. My favorite is “Water Colors” at station 066 on Sirius-XM. In the Smooth/Cool Jazz genre there is everything from blues to funk to salsa and remakes of various classic rock songs. I didn’t want to stuff the channel too early with imbeds, so here is a smooth jazz sampler with just the links. Give ‘em a try. I think you’ll like what you hear.

Woman kicked off Plane for singing Whitney Houston Song

Whitney Houston’s huge hit “I will always love you” from the Bodyguard soundtrack was not exactly one of my favorite songs. None the less, it was one of Ms. Houston’s biggest hit singles. The song is a huge favorite of people in the Karaoke scene. A woman on an American Airlines flight seems to have thought she was at Karaoke. Singing “I will always love you” the passenger was escorted off the plan!
A customer on an American Airlines flight would not stop singing “I will always love you,” the classic Dolly Parton song also made famous by the late Whitney Houston in the movie “The Bodyguard.”
The flight was diverted to Kansas City’s airport on Thursday after the woman became disruptive, according to CNN affiliate KMBC in Kansas City. A passenger video appears to show the woman singing the song as she’s taken off the airplane by police.
“The passenger was detained, not arrested, and then released pending further investigation by the TSA (Transportation Safety Administration) and federal air marshals,” said Tom McKenna, a Kansas City International Airport spokesman.
“I can confirm that she was singing ‘I Will Always Love You’ as she was escorted off the plane.” said McKenna.
The Passenger should have waited to go to a Karaoke bar!

Some Enchanted Eefin’

Although Jimmy Riddle was one of the last great Eefers, the Nashville R&B TV show “Night Train” once featured Joe Perkins‘ “Little Eeefin’ Annie.” Jimmy Riddle was the background “eefer,” and Perkins lip synched it.
Here’s how to do it:

One of the best, and one of the most prolific Grateful Dead Shows. They played a small college, Cornell in Ithica, NY. Barton Hall doesn’t hold too many. Its a soundboard,
Tickets were about $7… heh.
I will hit yinz with a killer scarlet/fire.

We miss you, Jerry.
It’s the Dead during one of their best periods. joy.Enjoy!

Cassettes, Pencils and Holes

A common question on “How Old Are You Really” online quizzes asks for the relationship between a No. 2 pencil and an audio tape cassette. The answer? It’s in the hole, and this is the lead in to Side A on The Overnight Open Thread.
