Johnny Cash - Sunday Morning Coming Down


Such a great song. I think we've all been there before... I know I've had a few rough Sunday mornings.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

Awesome tune. This week, there's been plenty of talk about Mr. Cash, being as this is the week of his 80th birthday.

I rather liked Sammy Davis Jr's cover.

My apologies because this is not my 1920s/30s typical tune ... but this is what I have been listening for the last 2 hours!

For those of you who don't know, Kool and the Gang had a long career before they added the cheezy lead singer and went "Celebrate". Kool, along with Tower of Power, Mandrill, War, early EW&F and other soul/horn bands was what we played back in the day. The New York City school system required that EVERYBODY take some kind of musical training even if it was hiding in the back mumbling with the chorus.

When we hit Junior High and High School we had ALL these horn players hanging around so... we used em!!! The part of the song you need to pay attention to is "Choclate Buttermilk", a simple song, not exactly Stravinsky, but it's rockin' This live version is kickin'. Funny thing, I just realized I've been playing for pay off and on since Nixon was President... Sigh...

...and the pre-1980's-version of the bands Cameo (when they were on Chocolate City records), Fatback, Brass Construction... man I was HOOKED on that stuff by the age of 3, mom told me I was a hit with the sales guys in the local K-mart store when they'd put on a K&G 1975 "Best Of" LP and I'd "go nuts" to that music, they gave that LP to my mom to keep, and I still have it... When "Jungle Boogie" came on when Pulp Fiction premiered in theatres, I sang along, and freaked my friends out a little... I was SO disappointed as a little kid when that music fell out of style. That was the first time in my life I ever saw an Entire Genre of music Go Out Of Style. I cried... guess I thought music was "permanent"... Stupid Kid.

But it wasn't long after that that my granddad got me hooked on 1940s big band jazz, so after that, my "modern" tastes came and went, but always had that parallel track of swing-era music.

Worf, were you in that Kool & the Gang vid?
