Herbie Hancock & Wayne Shorter Quartet, in "Round Midnight", Gasteig, Germany, 2007 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJ_sSmNSHwo
Barry Harris, "Round Midnight" Barry's another cat who I studied with for years...played with...in fact he was going to be on "From the Moon" but he had a gig in Italy get expanded to two weeks so he missed my session. I could have waited but I already had tickets back to Istanbul and gigs myself after the session...He's given me enough stuff to work on to keep me busy the rest of my life... He's the MAN..he's one of those cats, that everytime his fingers touch the keyboard the hairs on the back of my neck stand up... And every day that he is in NYC he is up a 10 am and out helping Stroke victims with rehab...He's like a saint, and a genius... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRs2fSYCiDw
Excellent catch JoAnna. Moose The Mooche was a code name Charlie Parker's drug dealer and Mack the Knife is a gangster. That's the tie to those songs. Bobby Taylor - Oh I`ve Been Blessed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaPgFQ_U4yQ
A little tongue in cheek, but it works. CCR - Fortunate Son http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ft749fC-1p4
Elvis Presley listens to the Stamps - Sweet Sweet Spirit 1972 live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14x_MuBwS28 A side note: At the time J.D. Sumner (bass singer and owner of the Stamps) was recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records with the lowest ranging human voice 22Hz in a song recorded in 1966 (that is just 2Hz above the bottom threshold of hearing).
Elvis Costello - Blame It On Cain No idea what the video is from. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRVRgtft9ko

Simpsons - In the Garden of Eden :happy102 This sounds like rock and/or roll. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4QnVoH8omw
