I think I know who the first guy is. Now, who *is* the other guy?
The axe man and the sax man. Nice! It must be the cheeks.
@MT: Sehwag plays the guitar? :)
abi:
sidney bechet - the world's first saxophone genius, and a character to boot.
mt:
knowing the two of them, it's just the cheek :-D
km:
you should see him shred on the attack...
TR, good O-bservation. I'd go with the cheek!
*I wouldn't have figured the worlds first sax genius.
@Km: Reminds me of a friend in college who had a "Kiss my axe" sticker on his electric guitar.
haha! nice!!
ahahaha....it is the cheeks and the cheek.
tfm:
o-kay!
i'm curious - who'd you have said was the first sax genius?
mt:
maybe that's why electric guitars don't have the cavities -- coz those would then be axeholes. (axehole rose, anyone?)
arun, szerelem:
:-D
cool!
this one states that woody is trying to impersonate bechet's style. judge urself! ;)

amazingly, "woody allen jazz band" have their own blog and it has the above mentioned link as its most recent post! huh!http://www.woodyallenband.com/blog/
Arun: if you haven't seen it yet, check out Woody's "Wild Man Blues". The man loves Bechet's music.
km, i've been meanign to get my hands on WMB by woody, but never really got into seeing it actually. That, and the one by scorcese on The Band - i think thats the name of the documentary too.
and also WMB audio can be downloaded at his blog (though not free!).
@TR - u got the eyes of the worls man! kudos!! we need a compilation later..hehe
world*
prerona:
it is, isn't it?!
arun:
thanks for the links! just as km said, the woodman is a HUGE fan of bechet's. even named a kid after him. i've heard he's a pretty mean clarinetist himself, although the thought of springing seventy grand to go watch him for an hour and not hear him say a word hasn't quite struck me as the greatest possible deal.
also, the scorsese movie on the band is called "the last waltz". it's an absoluet must-see -- my favorite music-related movie. and remember to save an extra night for the making-of featurette.
gift:
thanks -- i just woke up to find out... welcome back :-)
The Swing brothers? Nice :-)
Oh yeah, The Last Waltz is *heaven*. It was made on the sly by the Eyebrowed One *while* he was shooting Taxi Driver.
He may or may not have done anything great since Goodfellas, but to make Taxi Driver and TLW at the same time is superhuman indeed.

ghost:
hmm, maybe...
km:
totally agree.
btw, tentatively, will you be around on the columbus day weekend? email me if yes.
oh yes, i think i've seen WMB on sundance. i was browsing thro woody profile and checked out Soon-Yi Previn. i remember the last scene whr they r in a hotel in europe (or is it NY) and telling myself "she is cute"!...yeah, i know, not the *appropriate* way to remember a documentary! heh!
yeah, its the last waltz...i cud just catch the last 20 minutes or so on sundance.
70 grand?! tell him to, u know, ...
;)
woops, meant 70 quid. sorry, i plead jet lag. but you know, as a grad student, it might as well have been 70 grand.
