DJ Hairy Larry Presents Moores Code Playing Every Day
Posted on Sunday November 24, 2024DJ Hairy Larry Presents Moore's Code Playing Every Day From The Archives Of Something Blue 2024-11-24 Thanks Marty, today we're going to hear a jazz song written by a former ASU student. Tim Moore would sit in with Jazz Alliance when he was in High School, driving in from Southern Missouri. Then he spent two years in the ASU Jazz Program while Ron Horton was the director of the Jazz Department. It was during that time that Tim and his brother Brandon wrote the songs for the Caprice album, "from dawn til dusk". We released that album on HairyLarryLand in 2013 and we still love it at KASU. Of course, Tim didn't quit writing jazz songs after he left ASU. He went on to the outstand ...

Today we’re going to hear jazz from NJHB recorded at the very beginning. I was planning on starting the New Jazz In Jonesboro concerts at TheArts@311 in 2013. It was Christmas break so I scheduled a session on December 29, 2012, with the founding members on NJHB. I was rolling tape but I wasn’t really expecting to record an album. Turns out we played pretty good and we did. We recorded live in the studio, with just two mics recording the room, and we did it the NJHB way. W ...

DJ Hairy Larry Presents Josh Parks Playing Part Time Love

I went to the King Biscuit Blues Festival in Helena Arkansas, in October, 2024, camping for the first time since before the pandemic. My friend Brent and I went down to the main stage on Wednesday night and we saw Josh Parks jamming the blues. Josh had been jamming with The Emporium Orkestra at the Downtown Bar And Grill five years back and we had visited at the campground then too, so I really wanted to see him again. Well, at the biscuit Josh is a busy man. I kept looking for him at the campground, I even got directions from some other campers, but I couldn't find him. Then on Friday night I was playing some music with my friend Pat and he asked if I wanted to go play with Josh. Well ...
DJ Hairy Presents Bebop Beatniks Playing The Blue Crane
Posted on Monday October 28, 2024DJ Hairy Presents Bebop Beatniks Playing The Blue Crane From The Archives Of Something Blue - 2024-10-27 Thanks Marty. Today I'm going to play the title track of the soon to be released Bebop Beatniks album, "The Blue Crane". Every fall I enter my festival season starting with Beatles At The Ridge, then Blues Fest, and then The King Biscuit Blues Festival. Sometimes things work out better than you could expect. Jeremy Jackson and Alex Washam both have busy lives, Conley Hunt started working on weekends, and I also had issues so we hadn't played together as a full band all year. And we also hadn't played with a horn player since last year's Blues Fest. We were scheduled to play at Beatles At The Ridge, the next weekend at Blues Fest, and then the next weekend Alex was getting married. So congratulations to Alex and Rachel, but you can see how this would complicate our schedule. Fortunately, Jeremy was able to play both dates and Alex was able to play at Beatles At The Ridge so, fing ...
Jazz Guys
Posted on Saturday October 26, 2024@djsundog@toot-lab.reclaim.technology had a reply to a post about 2:00 AM Paradise Cafe by Barry Manilow. Here's his post https://gamerplus.org/@djsundog@toot-lab.reclaim.technology/113373836960302108 Here's his reply https://gamerplus.org/@djsundog@toot-lab.reclaim.technology/113373880138545307 This is my response. I can't wait to hear it. It's on my Freegal wishlist now. I prefer to listen from my hard drive. 1 Jazz guys just hate it when anyone is successful. They call success a sellout. Sure Barry Manilow had some outstanding pop hits. Doesn't mean he can't play jazz. 2 And jazz guys just hate female vocalists. They want all the solo time. If you want to make a living playing jazz backing up a female vocalist pays. Every few years there is a jazz resurgence almost always led by a female vocalist. Or Herbie Hancock. (see 1) 3 Jazz guys refuse to acknowledge Barbra Streisand. (See 1 and 2)
Listening Repertoire
Posted on Monday October 14, 2024Listening Repertoire I have developed this concept of listening repertoire, similar to practice repertoire or performance repertoire, but for listening. Back in the olden days (also known as the sixties) when I got my paycheck I would head to the record store and buy an album. On a good week two but anything more than that would cut into my groceries and rent. When I got home that record would hit the turntable and if I liked it as much as I thought I would it lived there for a while, at least several days before I would swap in the album I bought last week or one I had listened to for years. But for that week and much of the next I'd listen to it a lot. When guests came over I would play it for them. If we had a party it would be playing in the background. Now, jump to the present day, where I can listen to anything I want to, anytime. I rarely listen to an album more than once. I love live performances and I watch them on Youtube or listen to them on the Live Music Archive, usua ...

The Dragons Egg
Posted on Tuesday November 05, 2024The Dragon's Egg A System agnostic TTRPG by Larry Heyl Licensed CC BY The goal of the game is to steal the dragon's egg. The game includes exploration, combat, and puzzles. Exploration --- The DM adjudicates actions and decides when the dragon is going to attack the party. When not in combat the party travels together to try to find the dragon's lair so they can steal the dragon's egg. The DM chooses the rules for exploration using any published system or their own system. The players make a character sheet for the chosen system. The players encounter NPCs who can be good or bad on their travels who they can talk to. They also encounter animals or monsters on their travels that are more difficult to talk to. Every encounter should contain clues to the location of the dragon's lair. The players act in any order saying what they would like to do and the DM adjudicates their success. The DM might use dice rolls to determine the difficulty of the action or the DM might not need dice ...

Today we're going to hear a jazz song played to a rock beat. During the pandemic I couldn't play out but I still had to perform so I started livestreaming on twitch. To avoid copyright issues livestreaming I played only originals. After a few months of livestreaming 2 or 3 times a week I had settled in on 16 of my own compositions that I called my streaming repertoire. I called my stream Hairy Larry Practicing Piano. It turns out that if you practice the same 16 songs week after week f ...
