Miles Davis - New Blues
 


This was part of Miles' repetoire when he returned to creating music in the 80s after taking a needed break.

People wanted him to play old-timey jazz (his words) and he was not here for that. He didn't want any part of looking in that rear-view mirror. I didn't like it, but I got it.

This song was letting us know he still had the blues (and jazz), but just from a different view.

Are you spinning in a lie that keeps on telling you
That you're not good enough
When you're looking in the mirror
Do you see someone impossible to love?
Full of fragile broken pieces
We're all rough around the edges
We ain't perfect no
We ain't even close
We got holes in our hearts
We got scars we don't show
But all that baggage we
Keep on dragging around
Anytime we start laying it down
Lay it down at the foot of the cross
Give it to the one who can carry it all
Even at our worst, to him we ain't lost causes
Just beautiful messes
We're all David's we're all Mary's
We've been liars, thieves and everything between
But don't forget God used the misfits just like us
To do the most amazing things
So bring your faults, your flaws, your secrets
And watch him use those broken pieces
'Cause we ain't perfect no
We ain't even close
We got holes in our hearts
We got scars we don't show
But all that baggage we
Keep on dragging around
Anytime we start laying it down
Lay it down at the foot of the cross
Give it to the one who can carry it all
Even at our worst, to him we ain't lost causes
Just beautiful messes
No matter where you are right now
Let thy grace come pouring down
It won't run out, it won't run out
We ain't perfect no
We ain't even close
We got holes in our hearts
We got scars we don't show
But all that baggage we
Keep on dragging around
Anytime we start laying it down
Lay it down at the foot of the cross
Give it to the one who can carry it all
Even at our worst, to him we ain't lose causes
Ooh lay it down at the foot of the cross
Give it to the one who can carry it all
Even at our worst, to him we ain't lost causes
Just beautiful messes
Beautiful messes, yeah

Miles Davis Quintet - ’Round Midnight
 


One of the things I love most about jazz is a musician’s refusal to play the same song the same way more than once. They just won’t do it and the world is a better place for it.

Ike Quebec - Blues for Charlie on Blue Note
 


Ike Quebec, sax player, is one of the first musicians signed onto the Blue Note label by Alfred Lion.

I love Blue Note. They’re one of the few record companies that didn’t rip off their artists. Lion wasn’t known for taking undeserved writing credits like Berry at Motown and what’s-his-face at Chess Records. Blue Note also didn’t take advantage of their female artists like Berry at Motown and whats-his-face at Chess and so many others.

Grant Green wrote this song and is the guitarist on this album. I think the “Charlie” in this title is for Charlie Christian, another guitar player, who influenced Grant Green, not Charlie Parker as many people mistakenly believe.

Written by the late, great Kenny Rogers
 
Sweet Music Man -- Performed by Dolly Parton and "Allison"

(I wouldn't listen and I couldn't see
And all I have left now are words you said to me,)

Sing your song sweet music man,
'cos I won't be there to hold your hand like I used to,
I'm thro' with you.

You're a hell of a singer and a powerful man
But you surround yourself
With people who demand so little of you.

You touched my soul with your beautiful song,
You even had me singing along right with you,
You said I need you.

Then you changed the words and added harmony
And you sang the song you had written for me
To someone new.

But nobody sings a love song quite like you do
And nobody else could make me sing along
And nobody else could make me feel
That things are right when you know they're wrong
(that things are right when you're wrong with the song)
Nobody sings a love song quite like you.

Sing your song sweet music man
You travel the world with a six piece band
That does for you what you ask 'em to.

And you try to stay young
But the songs you've sung to so many people
They've all begun to come back on you.

So sing your song sweet music man,
You're making your living doing one night stands,
That prove to you they don't need you.

You're still a hell of a singer but a broken man,
But you're keep on looking for one last fan
To sing 'em to.

But nobody sings...
So sing your song sweet music man
I believe in you...



~RIP Kenny~
