Made a lot of money with it. And he gigs on the Letterman show. Cool, yeah, but not truly jazz cool.cowboyangelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13452987299073540171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14639740.post-54678347831891548992007-09-19T10:19:00.000-04:002007-09-19T10:19:00.000-04:00It's actually increased my respect for David Sanbo...It's actually increased my respect for David Sanborn.<BR/><BR/>And give Charlie Haden a break -- guy's got to make some money.

Thanks a lot. I've seen a lot of weird musical combos in my life, but that definitely ranks as one of the weirdest. What's next? Iggy Pop and Kenny G, with Charlie Haden, doing "Mambo Italiano"? Tom Waits and Yanni, with Charlie Haden, doing "Dazed and Confused"? <BR/><BR/>Two things: 1) Nick Cave must have the longest face in the world. You could float him in water and launch naval jets off that thing. 2) Charlie Haden is the ultimate musical whore, isn't he? I mean, the guy plays with everyone. It gets a little creepy. <BR/><BR/>I don't know man, this just didn't seem right.cowboyangelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13452987299073540171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14639740.post-8786150607991640102007-09-11T19:35:00.000-04:002007-09-11T19:35:00.000-04:00Still kickin, but don't count on me in the olympic...Still kickin, but don't count on me in the olympics.

He has a whole album called "Murder Ballads" with songs of written from the point of view of murderers. Very novelistic in a way.Liamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17265036866243982434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14639740.post-76121264410328916642007-09-09T20:07:00.000-04:002007-09-09T20:07:00.000-04:00probably far less PC to sing about now than it was...<I>probably far less PC to sing about now than it was years ago. </I><BR/><BR/>Sorry... or even in 1988, for that matter.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10754406706300818849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14639740.post-2847314867354188472007-09-09T16:03:00.000-04:002007-09-09T16:03:00.000-04:00Nick Cave.

The first is that <I>Hey Joe</I> has subject matter that is probably far less PC to sing about now than it was years ago. The second was to take on a song that Jimi Hendrix had so thoroughly made his own. Cave did a pretty good job with it.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10754406706300818849noreply@blogger.com
