April 1 - No Foolin'

LEON REDBONE -
What a great fingerstylist & schtick-meister
"My doctor says take 1 pill, 3 times a day.
   I can't do that.
   My doctor says drink whiskey an hour before bedtime.
   I can't do that.
   I gave up after 45 minutes"

Champagne Charlie, Harvest Moon, I've Been Working on the Railroad
I Ain't Got Nobody, tunes from Ain't Misbehaving. Short set, great
stylist.

QUESTION - Leon's combo included a great Trumpet Player (with
1/2 dozen different mutes) + keyboards. Great balance of tone
for this style of Tin Pan Alley, rags. Is there a precedent here?

JOHN PRINE -

Hey Dubya - "You're Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore"
Love this guy. He played almost 2 hours I think.
'Nuff said.
