Too bad about my YT issue, I'd like to hear Weather Report with guitar. Never got around to it nor had the opportunity. And they were one of my favorites too. VERY "clean" live shows too.

 

And being a Michigander Kenji, I understand too well the HUMIDITY issue! ;)

I started out with NOTHING...and I still have most of it left!

LarZ, kinda lost me w/the Sam Jackson thing but I did like how they dubbed some monitor feedback in at just passed 2 min mark....

however if we'gon'pick some fake balooze, let's go deeper.

Dial up 3:12 here.

A more authentic take on the blues of the delta might be this example of the Wolf describing the disappointment of getting the wrong type of iced tea

The say reggae was created one year when it was too warm to keep up the ska beat

Actually it wasn't Fake Balooze...Samuel actually sang the song in the scene and learned just enough guitar to play it in the clip and in other parts of the movie as well. I was just going for the heat wave concept and how to really make the best of one even though it wasn't in Japan... :cool:
Take care, Larryz

I'll look again but 1st view seemed a bit sketchy.

I like him as an actor & what I know from the distance but personally I thought of it much the way you likely consider hip hop.

Y'know I never even heard of that film.

As G'Ma said, "Ya learn something new every day---if y'know what's good for ya !"

Oh, it's not just Japan.

Ouarglia, Algeria = 124 F on 7-5-18 :pop:

LA, USA (whence SGirl just to visit & flee) = 108 F on 7-6-18

Ok to burning it down from the 70's:

Let's not be so hasty to move past the incredibly potent sociological message I created up there using Davey Byrne, Tim Allen & Mr James Marshall Hendrix... :cop:...but as that message abt our Mess Age sinks in I'll ask if this is what Randy Newman (the post-Ray Davies of rock) had to say to say abt

Oh yeah! The world record high temperature was right here in California in Death Valley. 134 degrees F, July 10, 1913. :crazy:

I`m betting neither of those places have summers like Japan.

Being underdressed means, that you only have one T-shirt.

If you close your eyes and take a shower, you never know if you`re still in the shower. I`ve never visited the equator. Actually, I`ve never visited Earth 50 million years ago. I don`t know what the animal life was like. I have a pretty good idea about the weather.

Same old surprises, brand new cliches-

Just heard on the news last night that the month of July in Death Valley was the hottest month ever recorded in human history anywhere on the planet. California, we're trendsetters here.

Not to negligize it [hey, gang---I just created a new word ! :rolleyes:] but D Valley's always been quite appropriately named.

Still, I suspect it's-a-gettin' badder'n'worse.

 

My sympathies. :wave:

 

"Everybody talks abt the weather but nobody's building domed cities, are they ?" / Halfnote von Cleeve :D

 

Still, part of the idea here is musical exposure & comments, not just our dying gasps before Nature's Grinning Grill.

 

I for one never knew Newman's off-beat song abt the Cuyahoga R. had become such a covered tune that it must be considered one of the mainstays of 20th C folk music...right ? :idk
