A beautiful weekend on the isthmus.

I'm Kitchen Concubine this evening. Umami is my theme, so the music fits right in.

(Well, not the Beach Boys, but still...)

@βrian: I think the Beach Boys can sometimes be quite umami, especially post-'60s.

@Uncle Michael: And what a shame, and what a loss for us. He could have made for a pretty good jazz-pop vocalist.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:47pm
Uncle Michael:

Peter Guralnick on that song:

" Here you get a glimpse not of the life he led but of the things he felt and the movies he might have made.

There is nothing like it in any of his other films – certainly not in anything since “King Creole.” There is a moment of interiority, however stylized, a moody dreamscape to which Elvis lends himself as if he had somehow found his way into a Gene Kelly musical. But it is only when he actually begins to sing (after a minute-and-a-half of voice-over mood shots), that we sense the quiet, earnest sincerity that belies the stagy showiness of the rest of the film. Just listen to what Elvis brings to this beautiful Doc Pomus-Mort Shuman composition if you want to experience the core of vulnerability that lies at the heart of his music."

Now I want to hear Chet Baker sing it..dammit.

thanks for that post, @Uncle Michael. (^_^)
I have never heard Elvis like that before (thank you, Gaylord.)
And Chet Baker. Yes, pretty much anytime. (^_^)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:50pm
Gaylord Fields:

@Uncle Michael: Several years ago, Debbie D. and I met Peter Guralnick while he was hanging out at the Sam Phillips Recording Studio, and I took the opportunity to tell him what a service for humanity he did with those two Elvis bios.

What else could you do?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:52pm
Gaylord Fields:

@gal_x @sweeks: It breaks my heart that he wasn't allowed, or didn't allow himself, to pursue this style of singing.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:54pm
Uncle Michael:

It's funny how an actor can make blockbusters to pay the bills, and artsy little films for their souls without undermining their brands, and yet so few singers and musicians seem to feel like they have that latitude.

I never met him, but I did attend a tribute to him at the Lied Center while he was still living. It was a star-studded affair.

My social circle and his had minor overlap, but I never attended any of the parties James Grauerholz threw. Friends of mine did.

Which was the one shortly before the mic break that sounded so much like "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes"? Was that "A View From Her Room"?

It is a scathing insult? I hear it as an endearing term for pop's a little square (shouldn't he be?). To me, a baseball hat is a baseball hat is a baseball hat. Unless it's autographed. Then it's a crown!
