youtube addictions and delights

YOURTUBE ADDICTION? Unload your soul here...

I was addicted to the Fedora Lounge. I tried coming off by using
http://www.redhotjazz.com/ but it wasn't long before someone introduced me to the hard stuff. Youtube.

DAMN YOU YOUTUBE!! I haven't done a stroke of work for days. The cats are hungry, the dishes are dirty, the kids are running wild.......

but it sure feels good...go on. Give it a try, you know you want to.....just a little won't hurt....

I've refrained from adding youtube.com to my favorites since I'm trying to get/maintain a life.

 

[Cruiser]

Blast you, evil spirit.

 

[Rosie]

Ha, ha, ever since that cartoon thread, I've been hitting youtube hard. I watched like two hours of cartoons one night without even realizing it. Glad I'm not the only one.

 

[nightandthecity]

One day at a time. So far today I have resisted. But the Lounge is failing to hold my attention...

As I should really be doing my annual accounts and tax return for 2005 YouTube is looking very tempting...

just one shot and then sweet oblivion....

 

[nightandthecity]

HA HA! HA HA HA!!!!

Oh yeah! That feels GOOD!

Just check THESE out all you hillbilly hepcats! Did anyone ever look cooler than the young Johnny Cash??? (well apart from Ben Webster in C-Jam Blues posted yesterday...and the entire Hot Club of France in that first posting....and I suppose Cab Calloway too....)

Here's a strange one

Finding things on Youtube is hard for me but sometimes I find something else interesting by accident.
See what someone did with footage from "It Happened One Night". It's crazy.

Johnny Cash - Train of Love

Ok...GREAT youtube....but the best is the guitarist who desperatly tries to look anywhere BUT in the camara....very funny.

[jake_fink]

Yeah, man this is great, yeee-haw!!!

 

[jake_fink]

But seriously folks... addictive? Yes. So is Maxwell Demille's Movies in Your Home.

that Aerosmith meets Gable is bizarre! But at least there's no distraction (people talking) from gazing in wonder at Clark's fantastic wardrobe.

Magus
Cash's guitar player Luther perkins was notorious for both his stage shyness and minimalist technique! In fact none of them were particularly good players and it was their limitations that produced that incredible stark sound.

When the trio originally got together they all played rhythm guitar. Realizing this wouldn't do Luther got an electric and tried to do lead and Marshall Grant got a bass...when they recorded for Sun they were little more than beginners.
But the sound they came up with was awesome.

Jake!! I nearly fell of my chair laughing at Apache. The essence of the early 70s distilled into 4 minutes! Never has that Shadows classic sounded (or looked) so dire.

And now - for you delectation and delight - let me present my current hoot of the minute.

A little more recent than most of the videos posted here, but if you're a soul fan here's a perfect lesson in the art of soul singing - Wilson Pickett live on stage performing I'm In Love

The Isley Brothers at their raucous best on Shout

James & Bobby Purify - I'm Your Puppet

Bird and Diz - Hot House

And the mighty Louis Jordan - Beware Brother Beware, Five Guys Named Moe, Caldonia, Buzz Me, Jack You Dead, and of course the tune I got my signature from Let The Good Times Roll

 

[nightandthecity]

some great stuff there Salv. I should have done a search on Louis Jordan days ago! He was king of the Soundie (and of a lot else!)

The stooge in Beware may only be a cameo but he's definitely a candidate for the "great cissy actor" thread!

I spent last night finding versions of Dark Eyes, one of my favourite swing fiddle pieces, and THE anthem of European gypsy jazz. Some crackers here, but be warned, most of them are MODERN (shock horror). But anyone with the slightest interest in European string jazz or the guitar should at least check out no 1, which features 5 of the worlds best jazz guitarists jamming for around ten minutes.....

nice call, Salv

Louis Jordan is one of my favorites.

Oh yeah - did you ever get those 60s performances on DVD?

very famous early 'video' featuring Lester Young.

 

[Barry]

Loved Ones and Pre Loved Ones...Not Swing, Bluesy Mod Revival...good stuff.

Pre Loved Ones

Mods Dancing

You better do right...

 

[Salv]

A neat tie-in with a recent thread, which had a film clip of some scary, bendy sisters singing Cow-Cow Boogie (sadly now removed by request of Warner Brothers) - here's that same song sung by Ella Mae Morse - sorry about the would-be hipster, B-movie actor in the first couple of minutes.

 

[Baron Kurtz]

one of those basie numbers would suggest that Jimmy Rushing played alto. Methinks not. Did he??
