Older readers may remember her brutal poolside murder back when th' House O' Foam© was located in bosky downtown Las Vegas. Sleuth dream team Lt. Columbo and Jessica Fletcher eventually nailed Gwyneth Paltrow (out of The Police) for clubbing the much-loved grandmother to death with an Engelbert Humperdinck CD. But that was then, and this is now.
Few knew that Mrs. Nussbaum was also something of an authority on Third Stream Jazz. "That's right, hep cats!" said Myra yesterday from her cabana inside the smoking crater of Mysterious Volcano. "Sure, critics have argued that third stream—by drawing on two very different styles—dilutes the power of each in combining them. They can blow it out their ass!"
Let's all take a peek at the piece Myra has tucked away in her barnacle-encrusted sea chest, and see if we can guess - who's in Myra's Box!?

ReplyDeleteThere's enough yeast in here to start a bakery. Jacky Terrasson?
ReplyDeletepmac steps off the Catalina right into the surf with this well-intentioned and very welcome yet frustratingly inaccurate response!
Deletepmac is, of course, correct about the yeast. Farq would have realized this in the old days, prior to his tragic accident with the Speedo and the Swiffer.
ReplyDeleteI must ask you not to refer to the Sp**d*/Sw*ff*r "incidents" on a public forum? Litigation is ongoing and I refer enqiries to my outside counsel.
DeleteMoving on - sir? You at the back? Any idea who's stuck inside Myra's box?
Arthur Lyman's love child.
DeleteSecurity? SECURITY!
DeleteThat's not Rock N Roll !
ReplyDeleteOrgan Leroy at his organ again?
ReplyDeleteStuck inside of Mobile with the Mammaries losing the battle with gravity again.
ReplyDeleteO.K., I've now listened... (Wha!??!)
ReplyDeleteYes, it's true, I even READ this WHOLE page, too. (Gasp)
Is it Schroeder on his mini grand, after a bit too much Great Pumpkin punch ™?
Schroeder and Organ Leroy are both unsettlingly near the mark, but nope!
ReplyDeleteVince Guaraldi?!?
DeleteIf only all of th' Four Or Five Guys© had the sagacity, the breadth of knowledge, the piercing intellect, the shrewd acumen, and the Socratic judgement of pmac! Why, then, they'd all be wrong.
DeleteHey, thanks for the compl........wait a minute.
DeleteVG . . . It COULD be. If he'd ingested some sort of mind-alerting substance before he cut the recording (which is in Myra's Box)...
DeleteLet me edumacatedly guesstimate...
'50s... West Coast...
"Cool" is not just wishful thinking for those in the line of fire, it's the "hip" jazz mode du jour.....
Like, Gone, Garner.
So alas compadres this exercise has been relegated to the dust bin of inconsequential history.
ReplyDeleteAnd Myra rambles on to the bakery.
One never knows, do one?
Maybe fifteen years back, I was fooling around with Garageband, the music app that comes bundled with Mac OS. This is one of the pieces I fooled with. It took forever. There are no loops, just individual notes placed on a timelime and then given instrument(al) coloring. The "drums" aren't drums any more than there's a piano or bass.
ReplyDelete... actually twenty years back ... maybe more ...
ReplyDeleteOh, ferchrissakes. It's a compyooter re-imaginging then? Mash-up my ax...
ReplyDeleteA potential messterpiece unearth after all these years
ReplyDeleteDefinitely not VG you dum dums! Vince has way too much finesse for the ham-fistery. But I'm not sure who it is ... Chick Corea would be putting in many more filler notes. I'm not hearing any grunting in the background and it's a long shot but maybe Mr. Jarret? It's got some of that wandering aimlessly off the path feeling your way feel to it maybe perhaps?
ReplyDeleteWAIT, WHAT?!? Just re-read the comment thread again. This is Farq?!? No wonder it's ham-fisted and wandering aimlessly. Not Fair!!!!
DeleteYes, no, maybe so. What's fair is fair, when one has all the balls, the field, and the rule book, it's fair game to take it all & go home. Either that or throw it all out the window. Let's not judgey so quickie, as our Fearless Loss Leader has yet to confirm/deny/etc.
DeleteI wasn't trying to make anyone look foolish with this, to catch you out. I was interested to know if anyone could tell it wasn't "real". It sounds like a piano trio (with a ham-fisted/avant garde keyboard player) but it's just me screwing around with an app. It's unfair because the context was not "is this real?" - where you'd have smelled a rat - but "who is this?"
