Love the PJs. Obviously he "grew up" in a big band, I checked and it was Stan Kenton's. |

I have the soundtrack to Rocky 4. The music is great in that movie too. The training montage music really can inspire someone in a workout. The song that plays after his wife says "you can't win" is one cool song and of course maybe the greatest montage of all: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwPb7g_BlXQ |

what's the best white-person-fuel? - rocky theme (gonna fly now) - survivor: eye of the tiger (clubhouse leader / best odds in vegas) - bonnie tyler: holding out for a hero (fuck the haters: it gets me pumped up. if you're not answering "right here" when bonnie asks "where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods? WHERE'S THE STREET-WISE HERCULES TO FIGHT THE RISING ODDS?!?!!? then obviously you have no soul and you suck) added bonus = if you're my age the first time you ever heard this song there was a punk rock robot seeking revenge on a big fat white guy.... but bonnie tyler's video is way better and over 9000% more epic. |

Ah, Maynard Ferguson. He played at my high school when he was near the end and touring high schools. Our jazz ensemble got to open for his band. It was a lot of fun. It was also right in the midst of the Cubs' playoff run, what a fun time that was. He had lost a little off the top -- he was 75, for god's sake -- but could still scream. Still, though, I get a little twinge of embarrassment and shame listening to that sort of mainstream jazz fusion. Something about that "Gonna Fly Now" arrangement is just so ripe for ridicule. It's not good jazz, it's not good disco, it's just dreck. Sorry. You know, we gotta bring back that Jazz Download of the Day we were doing back around March. That was good. sinicalypse wrote: what's the best white-person-fuel? Don't Stop Believin' |
