Today is the birthday of Curly Putnam who wrote this song that was recorded by many people, a standard:

See and raise----sorry, but other than the William Tell Overture I never really wrapped with The Lone
Ranger. Here's the theme for one of the best radio Westerns I ever heard, "Highland Lament" (Charles Williams,
composer), from The Six Shooter:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbT_J8ALF0I

The Six Shooter featured James Stewart as Britt Ponsett (the title role), a laconic, lone-wolf traveler
whose trademark was a swift pistol he refused to use unless he absolutely had to. The series lasted only
a year (1953-54, on NBC) but came to be regarded as one of the best of its breed despite its short life. It also
provided one of the greatest takeoffs on Dickens' A Christmas Carol ever produced.

The Six Shooter, "Britt Ponsett's Christmas Carol" (NBC, 20 December 1953)

Then, of course, there was "Old Trails," the theme for the original radio Gunsmoke. I wish there
were a separate recording of the theme as played by the musicians working the show. Gunsmoke
was the best Western I ever heard, and it beat the television version (which used a lot of the
radio scripts) hollow.

Warren Oates is a fine actor; there really aren't that many films of his. He's a bit of a cult figure. I suppose the movie where he plays Dillinger is one of my favorites.

http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/born_today

A few birthdays today:

Jean Shepherd, country music, sang one of the all-time great songs, "Satisfied Mind", many have sung it since, her's was one of the first and a hit:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouO6-_P-Bus

Dr. John:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCRrXZP8b0I

Livingston Taylor, actually the brother of James Taylor:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkONdOWX0mo

Alex James, Bassist, Blur:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzRvdVAdu-I

Lonnie Jordan, War:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVodUOhoTkM

Someone who sang "Satisfied Mind" during his "Christian" phase was Bob Dylan.

There are new tracks being released of Dylan's Christian phase.

Bob Dylan's 'Trouble No More' offers music from 'Christian period'
http://www.readingeagle.com/life/article/bob-dylans-trouble-no-more-offers-music-from-christian-period

Seems like I read that he may not have entirely left Christianity, so who knows? Maybe someone does.

Been listening to a lot of Brother Ray tonight . . .

 

@EasyAce

There are many good reasons why you almost never heard anyone try to do a song Mr.Charles recorded. There just ain't nothing left in it for anyone else to sing.

Every time I think of Ray Charles I remember the duet he did with Willie Nelson on "7 Spanish Angels".


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8A9Y1Dq_cQ

They take turns singing the lyrics,and Ray Charles starts out. I am a huge Willie Nelson fan when it comes to his music,but the next sound that should have been heard when Ray finished singing the first verses should have been the sound of the door to the studio slamming as Wille was running for his truck. It would have been a career killer for pretty much any young singer. The only thing that saved Willie is his huge fan base.

Thanks Tom! I actually had the pleasure of seeing him in concert, at the Fillmore East, when he
was touring on that album. Talk about a little voodoo in the hoodoo, or did I have that backwards.

I have a new blues group leaning on the jazzier side and we do a lot of freewheeling group
improvisation, including now working on one involving this cut from that album, which I'm
posting for those who don't want to slog through the whole album (which would be their loss!) . . .

Good David Cassidy article at the BBC, a few excerpts:

Quote
David Cassidy: 'My one and only true heartthrob'

    5 hours ago
    From the section Entertainment & Arts


David Cassidy performing at the Empire Pool in Wembley in the 1970s

There has been an outpouring of emotional tributes to the US singer and actor David Cassidy, the 1970s teen pop idol who died on Wednesday.

At the height of his fame, he had a huge fan club - bigger than those of The Beatles and Elvis Presley.

Here, you have been sharing your stories of your encounters with the former teen heartthrob.

Special memories

Sandra Burnham from Bristol: "From the moment I caught my first glimpse of David I was in love.

I read a book by a follower of the Bay City Rollers, probably a similar experience.

Today was the 50th anniversary of the recording of (Sittin' on) The Dock on The Bay, by Otis Redding.

He did some overdubs on Dec 7 and died on Dec 10.

@musiclady


Here's a product demo/sales pitch for Korg's top of the line keyboard.

All 1 guy/1 instrument, no hidden backing players. Digital audio has finally gotten that good.

The fun - Theme Music from Kevin Costner's Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves, starts at about 19:00 minutes in.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ex0qDLBHCds

All 1 pass except for a few bits of percussion. Still 1 instrument, just played into its on board sequencer/digital recorder.


They get away with this by assigning different instrument sounds to different ranges of the keyboard, called splits. From middle C on up, etc.

And velocity sensitivity.

Hit the key at level 1 - the softest - and you get concert basses.

A little harder - level 2 - and you get tubas With the basses.

Harder stiil - level 3 - and you get timpanis along with the basses and tubas.

Next time you watch a movie ask yourself how much of it's an orchestra and how much of it's keyboards?
