SONG OF THE DAY Nathan Davis – Cecen Kizi
Born in 1937 in Kansas City, Kansas, Nathan Tate Davis, a.k.a Nathan Davis, was born with a natural flare for music. A talented multi-instrumentalist and jazz wizard, he started out playing the trombone at high school and later became proficient … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY Syd Jones & The Troubedours – Cardova
As I’m sure I’ve mentioned before, its not often that I find myself preferring a cover to the original, but today I have for you a mighty fine example of just that! In 1969 The Meters released an album on … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY Martin Denny – Similau
Similau is an alluring adventure into the world of Afro-Latin Jazz; though once Martin Denny weaved his magic into this, it was reshaped and crafted into a magical Exotica dream! Originally written by Arden Clar and Harry Coleman, Similau was … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY Os Tincoãs – Deixa a Gira Girà
There is something quite magical, mysterious and ever-so-slightly haunting about the adorable vocal harmonies in today’s song, but mostly they are striking. I love how the guitar nestles in the background initially, allowing the voices lead the way, but how … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY Holly Golightly – Satan Is His Name
In 1962 the rather slinky sounds of Satan Is Her Name (listen below) hit the soundwaves via Mercury Records. Performed by US singer/guitarist, Steve King (and the Echelons), this track was issued as a 45 and featured on the B-side … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY Steve Young – Coyote
This is one of those rare occasions when I actually prefer a cover to the original and this rendition is pretty magic! Coyote is a song that was originally written by Peter La Farge in 1963 – though he titled … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY Lecuona Cuban Boys – Tabou
Taboo, Tabu, or Tabou, depending which version you listen to, is a tune I never tire of! So much so, I’ve featured a couple of renditions already, which you can find here and here! What I love about this song is … Continue reading
(🎅Christmas Countdown🎄) SONG OF THE DAY Kevin Morby – Blue Christmas
Well, I can’t believe we have reached that time of year again!! Festive frolics await and to help you get into that Yuletime mood (just in case you need a little prodding..like me) I have a few little sonic merriments … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY Ora Cogan – Katie Cruel
Well, two days in a row now I’ve featured a cover version but, as with yesterday’s song, what I like about this rendition is that it’s quite far removed from the original. Today’s haunting take on Karen Dalton’s spectacular Katie … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY Solomon Linda’s Original Evening Birds – Mbube
I know it happened a lot in the past when songs were covered and then went on to be really popular, but the original artists didn’t even get credited, let alone get any royalties…but I never realised today’s song was … Continue reading
