Dave Ferris Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Alright David!! My long time comrade in arms, the great drummer David Tull. I'm going to have to call him him up on this. Too funny! I didn't know he was a David Frishberg in the making. I think it was written has a way of expressing his dissatisfaction with the LA Jazz scene has it is these days. I hear ya my friend. https://soundcloud.com/dave-ferris https://www.youtube.com/@daveferris2709 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morizzle Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Wonderful tune, and very well played! Some months ago, I posted a video of Dave Tull with the Clare Fisher Big Band: It has a similar vibe to it ;-) It's not a clone, it's a Suzuki.

Bobadohshe Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I've actually been hearing Dave on Kjazz 88.1 lately, not for this tune but for 'I just wanna get paid'.

The piano player on this track (Minutes pass like hours) sounds great! Not positive who it is, but I think it's Corey Allen. Dave, do you know Corey Allen?

Dave, do you know Corey Allen? Not really. I think we met one time years ago at Le Cafe. He is a very good player, last I'd heard he had taken some kind of gig with Bosendorfer. https://soundcloud.com/dave-ferris https://www.youtube.com/@daveferris2709 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threadslayer Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Now THAT's funny! I doubt that anyone but a musician could fully appreciate it.

Morizzle Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I think "The minutes go like hours" should become the official opener song for ALL Jazz-Jam-Sessions. You know, there are nice surprises. At the local session, there once was a norwegian mini-accordion player who played the most be-boppish lines on this toy instrument, at an incredible speed. Or the trumpet player who brought "Cosmic Steps", his version of "Giant Steps" but revolving around 4 and not 3 tonal centers :-D AND THEN, there are these singers, drunk and stoned to the max, who want to sing the same tune each time... or the guy with the blues harp, only in B, so he wants to play a B Blues 20 times during the whole evening... or the guy with the self-made flute, which is kind of resistant to tuning... or the occasional trombone player (do I need to say more?)... It's not a clone, it's a Suzuki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you on this one Mo - I have great respect for the guys who play this kind of stuff - those major 9th's & minor 13th's with a diminished 7th don't play themselves, you know...... but why do they have to rub it in? - for three hours at a time? (the time being, of course, 33/9) EVERY time..... WE GOT IT THE FIRST TIME - OK?????????????

MonksDream Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I think "The minutes go like hours" should become the official opener song for ALL Jazz-Jam-Sessions. Amen! This is hilarious! I was asked to host a jazz jam last Sunday and I wish I'd had this tune to close the night. There's always at least one singer that deserves it.I'm gonna post it and play it. Thanks, Richard! Instrumentation is meaningless - a song either stands on its own merit, or it requires bells and whistles to cover its lack of adequacy, much less quality. - kanker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely, this is an instant classic. A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
