"Why You Do That To Me?" - Tuba Skinny (Greg Sherman, vocals)

[@casinoroyle5254]

That tune rolls along nicely James. Everyone tight and together. So enjoyable, thanks James

[@SetemkiaFawn]

Another wonderful recording, fine, very fine. Thank you, James. Tuna Skinny never fails to delight. Many bands come close to their excellence but tuba skinny remains a nonpareil.

Just great music brought to us by very talented folks. Thanks!!

[@elizabethbrigden]

I just love how Greg enjoys himself when he is singing or just playing. He is a delight!

Grazie James....wow! Bravi Tuba Skinny! E bravo Greg! La sua voce mi fa poeticamente pensare ad un motore un pò sgangherato e riparato chissà quante volte ma che poi fa al meglio il suo dovere e va di gran lunga più veloce e lontano di un motore nuovo. Adoro questa voce,quasi...dai quasi....come quella di Clarence "bad boy" Palmer,il tipo che si faceva gli effetti sonori da solo,sembrava che il disco si incantasse ma sentivi che la musica intanto andava...genio! P.S. Let the four winds blow cantata da Greg è TANTA ROBA!...good pleasure! Danilo da Roma (Italia)

Hi from Morocco 💓🇲🇦 Amazing 😍

[@joeboyd4064]

Better every time I hear (and see) them! Each one is a master at their craft! How does a Band get better, when they're already the best? I don't know but they sure do seem to pull off! Non

👏👏👏👏👏 Fantastic!

[@emiliolopezify]

Great thanks for another awesome video from this magical concert. Yes now it is Greg time. This tune is new in their repertoire. The melody is very similar to "Make me a Pallet on your floor." Erika singing it with Tuba Skinny a couple of years before. I hope you have still more in your vault. Lovely Regards Dave from Berlin Germany 👋

[@JamesSterling]

Yes, there are more in the vault. And if the supply gets low I'll make another drive to New Orleans.🎷🎺🪕🎶

James, thanks again for making sure we can enjoy TS in our own home, I am 600 miles from N.O. Have a good day.

[@JamesSterling]

You are welcome. You need to put a trip to New Orleans to see them on your bucket list.

Many thanks, James. Yes, this is a 16-bar a-a-b-a song recorded by Washboard Sam in 1940. Its simple structure and melody are very similar to those of 'Make Me a Pallet on Your Floor'. Challenges for anyone who likes such things:- Question 1. Which Chorus features the cornet as soloist? Is it Chorus 6, Chorus 7, Chorus 8, Chorus 9 or Chorus 10? Question 2. In which key does the band play this tune?

[@PopsCoffee]

@Dave Thanks for participating, Dave. Q. 1 correct. Q. 2 still available. I think it starts on the chord of F, but that is not the key.

[@joukarfoy]

@@PopsCoffee Key of C.

[@PopsCoffee]

Correct! Well done, joukarfoy!

[@brendamello2202]

Here's one to mull over while enjoying your next coffee. It's just an observation rather than a challenge. If you listen to Peggy Lee's version of the Piron/Bocage tune ''Mama's Gone Goodbye''from 1924 what tune comes to mind?

[@PopsCoffee]

@@brendamello2202 Just listened to the Peggy Lee for the first time in my life. I note she omits the Verse (which is a pity, as it's more interesting than most verses). Also she sings the song in C, whereas the jazz bands usually play it in F - quite a difference. You'll have to tell me which other song comes to your mind. The only one I can immediately think of that also begins on the third note of the scale and the tonic chord, followed by the melody note being the flattened third of the scale supported by the flattened sixth chord is 'San'. But there's not a great deal in common between the two tunes as a whole. Thanks for provoking thoughts, brenda mello. Now to finish my coffee.

What better way to spend a cold winter's night in New Orleans???

[@JazzCountryMusic]

Thank you, Jim. I appreciate your videos of TS very much.

[@JamesSterling]

You are very welcome. I hope you are thawing out up there in the frigid north. It's 70 degrees (F) here in sunny Florida.

[@JazzCountryMusic]

​@@JamesSterlingNo not yet.🥶 -22F last night. Your freezer compartment in the fridge is warmer. It is still just 6F now.
