Day 9: A song that features percussion instruments

Ravel is one of my Impressionist faves. Bolero in particular always snared me with ease.

Sorry, I had to do it. Here's some Apocalyptica by way of apology.

Apocalyptica - Bolero

I played snare on "Bolero," once. That snare rhythm. For 17 minutes. I still have nightmares. Not of the performance, but of the practice. So much practice....

17 minutes!

Always the full version from me

Interesting factoid, Ravel had a degenerative mental disorder that led him towards creating a piece of music that was layered and repetitive. Now you know the rest of the story

I admire your optimism. I’m not sure how many more songs I get to listen to. 17 minutes for one!?!? Right out!

Not as sophisticated as the other songs posted, but that intro...

Personal Favorite of mine!

If you're familiar with the John Coltrane Quartet, then you know Elvin Jones...and you know his greatness.

And he thought the snare drummer was schtupping his wife*

Day 10: A song that features brass instruments

Super busy today, so I don’t have much time to think and look through my audio library. This is the first band and song that came to mind for this challenge. The toasters have always had really tight horn arrangements and the song is no exception. Great live band, I’ve seen them at least 10 or 12 times, although not anytime since covid.

The Toasters. - 2 Tone Army

Today's a great day to jazz up this joint I see I'm not the only one doing so

King Oliver's Creole Jazz Band - Canal Street Blues

Day 10: A song that features brass instruments

I don't like Billie Eilish's singing. Her whispery spoken-word rap doesn't do it for me. On the other hand, she wrote one of the greatest hooks of the 21st century. What to do, what to do?

The answer was, as it is so often for life's biggest questions, ska punk.

"Bad Guy," The Interrupters
