Hello there,

It´s been a while (again). I got the flue with lots of fever. High temperature indeed. Like this episode of Struttin My Stuff. Hot, sexy and yes, sometimes plain sleazy and pornographic. Thrown in between all this excitement are tracks taken from the cd Dirty Fanmail - Genuine Letters Written To Porn Stars.

Filthy? Yes. Disturbing? Mwah. Hilarious? Very Hilarious!

Have fun with this one!

Struttin My stuff # 23 - He was nothing but a Hound Dog

Greetings all!
Back after a long summerbreak with Struttin My Stuff, MOANIN and GROANIN Radio´s eclectic music show to sooth your body and soul.
From now on we will even be more eclectic by throwing - among other things - Celtic stuff in the mix, as well as some of my favorite singer-songwriters from all over the globe, mostly to cool things down a bit at the end of a show.(This time it´s Bob Dylan´s personal no. 1, Townes van Zandt.).
The Celtic touch comes from County Donegal, Ireland and is called Skara Brae. Skara Brae is the former group of the amazing Dhomhnaill family: sisters Tríona and Maighread Ní Dhomhnaill plus their brother Mícheál Ó Domhnaill. After the break up of Skara Brae in ´72, Triona and Mícheál became (founding) members of the famous Bothy Band, one the most important groups for the ´reinvention´ of Irish traditional music in the seventies.
The version of the traditionall Dónal Óg on this show comes from a Skara Brae reunion concert in 2004, with amazing lead vocals by Maighread.

Sadly Micheal Ó Domhnaill.passed away in 2006, after a fall in his home.
Which brings me to the first four songs of this show, all (co) written by Hound Dog Jerry Leiber, who passed away last month to meet Elvis, Big Mama Thorton and the rest. Come to think of it - almost all artists on this show are dead. (Little Richard: "Me dead?´Í´m gonna rip it up!") Mmmmm. Anyway, may their music make you feel alive and kicking!

Have fun with the show.

Struttin My Stuff # 22 - He´s A Rebel

When Phil was still popular with the girls...

Good day to you all and welcome to Struttin My Stuff # 22!

Like I promised last week, we kick off with a bunch of Phil Spector tunes. Apart from that we have loads of blues, some tough R ´n´ B ladies, great Afro- Funk, a few US Soul Brothers, Belgian Soul Brother Jacques Brel and - among more - a fantastic live version of the Ethiopian classic Tzeta by the Either/Orchestra. (We played

Bezawork Asfews version last week.) Called Soul Tezeta here, the first few seconds - before the singing starts- you would bet your life on it that you´re listening to a Van Morrison live-show from the late nineties or so.

Anyway, last show ´till september, this one. Time for a summer break. Time for updating and revising the show playlists and The Never Ending Playlist - yes, we´ve been sloppy in this field, lately. Time also to think about new shows for the second part of the year, maybe put some video´s on our You Tube channel, solve technical problems et cetera et cetera. We might even have some time for a little holiday.

For now, In the words of what might be our show outro: see you later!

Struttin My Stuff # 21 - Jailbirds

Ex-convict? Lucky bastard!

A very warm welcome to ya´ all , here´s Struttin My Stuff # 21, from the jailhouse this time.

Starting with an absolutely wild version of Jailhouse Rock by Dean Carter (real name: Arliee Neaville) with an out of this world solo on a 12 string dobro. In later years our man Dean just recorded gospel tunes and hymns, by the way.

The Mono Men from the US state of Washington follow, with their meaty garage instrumental Behind Bars, before with move up to Sweden for the ska tune Of Them Outta Jail by The Skalatons.

Things getting serious now folks, with people not only singing about prison, but actually being in it - at least at the time of recording. For the United States (about one in every 100 adults in the US are in jail at the moment!) there are two names which stands out when it comes to recording prisoners´ songs. One of them is, of course, Alan Lomax. We play two of his 1943 recordings ( by ´Alex´ and ´Jimson´) made in the prison .

The other jail recording master is Harry Oster. Largely unknown to the general public Oster´s work as a roots music researcher is just a valuable as Lomax´. Oster, to say just one thing, was the guy who discovered blues great Robert Pete Williams, in Louisiana´s Angola Prison in 1959. For an interesting article about Oster and his blues recordings, go to Big Road Blues blog. We will play some of Foster´s prison blues in a later show. But in this episode we stick to one of his other major achievements: Oster was actually one of the first who recorded the music of the Louisiana Acadians. From Oster´s 1959 lp The Folksongs Of The Louisiana Acadians we play Bee Deshotels´ beautiful Aux Natchitoches.

We have a new logo (thanks again, Daniel Pérez!) which features a Ruth Brown record sleeve. We never played much of Ruth records so far (in fact only I Don´t Know in show # 12, so here´s Ruth with the ballad Anyone But You.

When Ruth Brown is around, Lavern Baker is never far away. This time she´s here with Hey Memphis an adaption of Doc Pomus´ Little Sister, made famous by Elvis himself.
Both Brown´s and Baker´s record were produced for -Atlantic by Phil Spector. Talkin about jailbirds! Old Phil has to spent 19 years in prison because he shot actress Lana Clarkson. We´ll play a lot more Spector on next show, but for now: have fun!

Struttin My Stuff # 16 - A House Is Not A Home

Home Sweet Home

It´s Monday already...

so I hope all of you had a nice weekend.

I had a very good time with my family. Home Sweet Home indeed.
All those nice homely feelings make me start this weeks Struttin My Stuff show with some houses and homes songs. Needless to say they all fit perfectly in our usual mix of knowns and unknowns from Blues, R´n B, (Afro) Funk, Soul, Gospel and Much Much More.

Two of all these beauties stand out, at least for the little story behind them:

Guess who the organ player is on Doug Brown and the Omens Thank Goodness It´s Friday? Yes, it´s Bob Seger himself! Boss Doug later on became Seger´s producer. The man certainly knew his place.

A real unknown is Edward Ross, whose alter ego Little Buck didn´t get famous either. Ross was a member of New Orleans greats Huey Piano Smith and the Clowns though. His great Whisper My Name was backed with Little Boy Blue, which is actually the instrumental track of Eddie Bo´s Lover And A Friend. Producer and Seven B label owner Joe Banashak just added Ross´/Buck´s vocals.

Anyway, the record wasn´t what you can call a hit, but nowadays you pay a loooot of money for a copy. Strange world we´re living in.

Have fun with the show!

Struttin My Stuff # 13 - Things

Strange Things indeed!

Greetings!

And welcome to number 13 of our weekly Struttin My Stuff show.

Actually, this weeks thing theme thing started as just an excuse to begin the show with a intro taken from one of the funniest movie scenes ever, the Big Shoot Out in Analyze This, and then throw in some ´thing songs´

As these things go though, there turned out to be a Whole Lotta Things to make records about: real things, funny looking things, good things, ugly things, big fine things, little things...

Too many things indeed. And some things appear to be the same thing, but they are different things indeed.

There are even things which are the same thing, but boy do they sound different (Van Morrison´s and Barbara & The Brown´s version of Things Have Gone To Pieces).

So what the heck: let´s have a Thing show.

Shake That Thing and have fun!

Hello there!

Struttin My Stuff # 9 - Pourin It All Out

Hello there!,

Back again with a regular Struttin My Stuff show, after this week Saint Patrick´s Special. I hope you all had a great time - I sure did.

Time to sweat out the last alcohol with some high energy stuff. Lots of jumpers and swingers on this show for that reason and Mr. High Energy himself: Iggy Pop.
Awwright! Let´s get started!

Have fun.

Struttin My Stuff # 8 - Who Put The Whiskey In The Well?

Happy Saint Patrick´s Day!

Before we all start drinking, first some short notes on the state of Paddy, The Irish Rover (1).
What went wrong with his beautiful Green Island (2) in the Atlantic?
A paradise on earth is was once. A place were Paddy used to sing I´m Diggin My Potatoes (29).
Where he loved his Green Onions (5) and, above all, his Greenbacks (8).
But nowadays all Paddy sings is I´m Broke (20), Honey Where´s The Money Gone (3) and I´m Hungry(13).
That Stuff They Call Money (10), it´s all gone! Paddy is Living In Depression (9).
He´s feeling Heavy Heavy Heavy (7), he´s got the Bankers Blues (28).
Open the Door (22) , he yells in vain in front of any bank.
Paddy is Blue And Lonesome (16).
Didn´t it Rain (26) that hard, Paddy wouldn´t feel so bad. But in Ireland, When It Rains It Pours (24).
Hungry and Thirsty (12), our man enters the pub.
Hey Bartender (17), he says, and ten seconds later: There Stands The Glass (19).
Paddy drinks his Quiet Whiskey (11).
Five or six drinks later, Paddy feels like a Whiskey Headed Man (21).
I´m Leaving (18), he thinks.
Two hours later, he is still there. The only thing that pours now, is the liquor.
Streams Of Whiskey (15) are flowing through Paddy´s body.
And of course, being Irish, he starts singing a song.
That Woman Got Me Drinking (30), Patty moans,
blaming the girl with A Pair Of Brown Eyes (27) he met the other day.
Soon the whole drunken pub crowd joins in Patty´s Lament (23).
Wine, Whiskey and Women (6) it is for the rest for the day.
Everbody´s heading for a severe case of Intoxica (14).
Tomorrow they all will feel Sick, Sober and Sorry (25).
And the only question left will be: Who Threw The Whiskey In The Well? (31)
But that´s tomorrow. For now let´s all rise for God Save Ireland (32)!

Billy Jones + Billy Jones + miX&dorp

Hello there!

TB Turpentine here.

No worries. No mathematics classes on MOANIN and GROANIN Radio. It´s just a way to introduce some artists we´ll play on this week´s Struttin My Stuff show ( Saturday March 12 around 10 pm CET).

It´s a Dutch affair. The two Billy Jones we mentioned in the title of this post have both connections with Holland. And the guy behind miX&dorp not only is Dutch, he also runs the label Billy Jones number 2 is recording for. Apart from that, he used Billy´s music to make his own record.

But to keep things fairly simple, let´s start with Billy Jones number 1. This Billy is from Texas, but settled down in Amsterdam, after serving in the US-forces in Germany. In Holland he got a job as a singer for the best known soulband in Holland during the 60´s and 70´s, the Dutch/Surinam Oscar Harris & The Twinkle Stars.

Billy Jones spent the rest of his life in Holland, were he died in 1982 while playing basketball with some friends. In the meantime he had recorded quiet a few records, both with Oscar Harris and as a solo artist. Only one of his solo efforts was sort of a hit though: His very first single, All My Brothers Are Clean - which we will play on the show this Saturday - got to number 33 in the Dutch top 40.

Billy Jones 2 (Arkansas, USA) isn´t a big hitmaker either, but this Billy is alive and kicking. More than that, the man can sing, plays a mean guitar and knows how to write a song. If that´s not enough, Billy Jones has a vision. Read this interview with him on the All About Jazz site and you know what I mean.

Billy Jones makes a serious effort to make the blues - bluez he calls his music- as relevant for young urban people in the US as was Muddy Waters´s music in the Chicago of the fifties. Lucky enough for the rest of us he comes up with Soul Music with an universal appeal - just as Muddy´s best music had.

The blues has been declared death a couple of times the last 40 years of so. People like Billy Jones proof that the blues is alive and will stay alive the next 40 years and probably much longer than that.

Jones´ label boss Jan Mittendorp in the meantime, is taking things even one step further. Posing as miX&dorp he reworks existing tracks of his own label´s artists (apart from Billy Jones also Boo Boo Davis, among others).

In his own words: ´miX&dorp blasts new life into the style by blending modern beats and blasts from the future into existing tracks for a fresh sound that makes the rhythmic heart of the blues beat stronger than ever.´

Nothing to add to that, apart from: recycling never sounded so good!

See you this Saturday March 12 around 10 pm CET for these and many more gritty and wailing sounds. Not only from Holland of course, but from all over the place.

As long as it makes me dance, laugh, cry, jump or shout!

Tune in!

TB Turpentine
