Tuba Skinny - Coquette

Another lovely tune from Tuba Skinny, beautifully sung by Erika Lewis.
Recorded 5-13-19
And Tuba Skinny now has a Venmo account, so if you enjoy watching their videos and would like to support the band go here! - venmo.com/Tuba...

Shaye is an outstanding musician and band leader. She is fluent on cornet and piano and unselfish sharing the limelight with all the members of the band. A true inspiration and beautiful as well.

The world be be so much better if we were all laid back just like this. No tention a tall. Love the music. Thank you

[@johnchoquette3728]

Such a perfect leisurely "beat" for this old standard. Nice solo by the clarinetist . Tuba Skinny plays with such a "tasty" tone throughout. Then - there's the lovely Erika !

[@yogisuperman]

You know, Erika, is a wonderful singer, and we have to be thankful for anything Erika does. It's a gift! Thank you Tuba Skinny, and thank you Erika, you ARE precious! 5 STARS!*****

[@johnchoquette3728]

BINGO ! On both counts !

[@doninventura9474]

Tuba Skinny, I would love to visit New Orleans ONLY to see you perform. You are dyn-o-mite.

Erlka is wonderful, everything !!

Old time Dixie land music superb ! Many thanks Tuba Skinny!

I cannot imagine how people can just walk by! This is wonderful...been toe tapping all night long to Tuba Skinny!

Got my sights on coming to New Orleans next year to see Tubba Skinny.

[@DavidSmith-qo1se]

Lovely in more ways than one.

[@jamesvinson6676]

Erika, looking as good as she sounds, as usual.

[@alelo9422]

Thanks for posting this DIAMOND 💎❤ . This is to my opinion THE BEST VERSION of Little Coquette from Tuba Skinny

[@PopsCoffee]

Clearly it was Shaye's idea for the rhythm gentlemen to play 'threes' behind James' solo half-chorus (note her fingers signal at 2 mins 47 secs) before Erika resumed the vocal at the Middle Eight. And then Shaye's idea again ('bridge' signal with the fingers at 3 mins 57 secs) for the whole band, led by Todd, to round it off from the Middle Eight rather than go back to the beginning. How much more interesting than the dreary series of 32-bar solos we get from most bands! Incidentally, this performance (in Bb) sounds brighter than the one I videoed three years ago when they played the song in Ab: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h33PaWCDateqp5I And then there was the performance filmed by James Sterling in 2016 when they played it (without Erika) in Eb: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXLHk4Kle9h0ors Three performances of the same song in three different keys!

Pops Coffee There’s definitely more going on than meets the eye - or ear. I can listen to them for hours.

Pops Coffe, thanks for your analysis. As always, interesting and educational. And your countryman on the clarinet can make you proud. .

[@PopsCoffee]

@@omt6852 Thanks, omt 68. If you have not already done so, you may be interested to see James playing 'Weary Blues' with Tuba Skinny when he first moved to New Orleans six years ago. Our friend RaoulDuke504 filmed that one too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmWokqqaebx5aa8

Pops Coffee, thanks so much for writing your book, "Tuba Skinny and Shaye Cohn". It is a real treasure of information about the group. It was my greatest musical find this year! Love their music! Thanks again. Art

Been listening to Tuba for at least 10 yrs and have been lucky enough to catch them in N.O. What a great sound and so happy all these tunes up on You Tube. Just great sound, a delight to the ears.

Perfect tempo for this tune! Written in 1928 by Gus Kahn (words), Carmen Lombardo & Johnny Green (music.)

Just watched another video of them doing this song in 2016 singing in a different key.

[@frobful]

J'ai réservé pour leur venue à Rabastens (là où j'ai effectué mon service militaire, il y a (trop) longtemps, lors de leur tournée dans le Sud-ouest de l'été 2019. Je vais traverser la France pour aller vous voir, j'espère que vous serez au complet car même si la France n'est pas les Etats-unis, cela représente un bon nombre de miles pour une seule soirée (de rêve). ce sera le 22 juillet. Voir en chair et en os des musiciens que j'écoute en boucle à longueur d'années me met en joie. A bientôt

Pops Coffee => Thanks Analysis. For my taste the Rhythm Gentlemen with THREE string-instruments under Erika Lewis vocals .....a little too "heavy". (03.25).
