    EweTube just served me a blast from the past, the Baja Marimba Band!

    When does an old joke become a "Dad" joke?  When it's apparent.

    Botch - Couldn't let that ^^^^ go by without a comment or two. Got the album from my brother in law who among his many jobs and talents worked for the local radio station doing live community college basketball commentary home games. He also did a stint as a DJ at WEZY radio station in Cocoa, FL. Gave his sister this album. Trivia - Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss created the label that produced Baja Marimba Band. 1965 Oh My.
    Found this one also from BIL -
    Ubi panis, ibi patria.
    Large - Roswell rig, MiniMax-PS Woo; Cocoa, Fl.

    ^^^ Very cool, glad someone else has even heard of them (I do have their GH album on vinyl, learned of them via Herb Alpert's Tijuana Brass, back when my classmates were all into the Beatles).  Although very kitschy, they were very good musicians and did some very ear-catching chord substitutions and key changes.  Like this:

    This popped up on ewetube, haven't seen it in several years.  The late, great Roy Clark was an overlooked monster!

    This may be only of interest to the musicians, but there's a few of them here so I'm posting it.  

     
    "Dead Wax" is a video podcast that I'm fascinated with, founded by Jack Conte (he is also the husband-side of Pomplamoose, and, just as a side gig, CEO of Patreon!)  Here they interview Wendy Melvoin, guitarist who joined Prince at the ripe old age of 19 (and, today, she reminds me of... my Mom!).  They start out discussing the funk of Earth Wind & Fire, talk a lot about how it was to work with Prince, and also bring up the exact same artists that I held dearest thru my own life (Vulfpeck, Miles, Joni Mitchell, The Meters, Tower of Power, Kool and the Gang).  I never got to the proficiency of any of those folks, but they were what I listened to and I guess I was raised right/lucky!  
    Cool discussion about what makes funk, "funk" (dragging but not pushing around the One), Prince's grueling rehearsals, and the distinction between an Artist and an Entertainer.  
    I'll be watching this a couple more times.  
     
    EDIT:  Oh, and if you've never listened to classic Earth Wind & Fire thru headphones, do yourself a favor...)   B)
