I don't follow jazz but I do know "Girl from Ipanema" -- who doesn't? That's actually one of those songs whose music and lyric meld into the musical/visual image of what they're about.

"Girl From Ipanema" is decent, but is currently being overused by any slipshod producer/director that wants to do a period piece...hopefully they will get tired of it someday.
i am sorry batgirl im just trying to get popular and i now know that that will not make me popular

I agree...it's almost like a good thread that gets sullied via external forces.

im sorry

Fortunately threads are more disposable than great songs.

Every loss adds up to our current world. Much like space-time, it's just a vast sea of darkness with pinpricks of light that guide us

true... there's the Steinitz-like accumulation of disadvantages, but ignorant, annoying, look-at-me type people aren't a modern phenomenon. Today they just have a better platform to let their attributes shine.

I agree, I'm not a "younger generations have ruined the world" type of person. In terms of severity and damage, in fact, clearly older generations should apologize to younger generations for the world that is being left behind for them to live in.
Nice article. Thanks!
I had a Jesse Fuller album! The guy had a great voice, funny at times. He was a one-man band, played guitar, harmonica, kazoo and percussion all at the same time. Born in 1896, he grew up in Jim Crow Georgia but eventually ended up in San Francisco. He had a significant influence on the early folk singers and some of the later pop musicians. He wrote one of my favorite songs popularized by the Dead, "Beat it on down the Line".
I wonder what happened to my Jesse LP?
Thanks a lot. I had never heard of him but found out I play two of his songs, "The San Francisco Bay Blues" and "John Henry" but only on one instrument. I listened to a bunch of his recordings on Youtube. As he was starting off playing "The S.F. Bay Blues" live, he said something like, "Here's the song that made me all that money." He can sure tear up a guitar.
