    JACK KEROUAC THE DHARMA BUMS 2 Version 2.0 Proofed by FRENCHIE March 2002 3 Dedicated to Han Shan 4 1 Hopping a freight out of Los Angeles at high noon one day in late September 1955 I got on a gondola and lay down with my duffel bag under my head and my knees crossed and contemplated the clouds as we rolled north to Santa Barbara. It was a local and I intended to sleep on the beach at Santa Barbara that night and catch either another local to San Luis Obispo the next morning or the first class freight all the way to San Francisco at seven p.m. Somewhere near Camarillo where Charlie Parker'd been mad and relaxed back to normal health, a thin old little bum climbed into my gondola as we headed into a siding to give a train right of way and looked surprised to see me there. He established himself at the other end of the gondola and lay down, facing me, with his head on his own miserably small pack and said nothing. By and by they blew the highball whistle after the eastbound freight had smashed through on the main line and we pulled out as the air got colder and fog began to blow from the sea over the warm valleys of the coast. Both the little bum and I, after unsuccessful attempts to huddle on the cold steel in wraparounds, got up and paced back and forth and jumped and flapped arms at each our end of the gon.

  • JAZZ IMPROVISATION: YOU CAN DO IT! Presented by Vince Corozine (ASCAP)
    JAZZ IMPROVISATION: YOU CAN DO IT! Presented by Vince Corozine (ASCAP) CREATIVE MUSIC EDUCATION IN A WORKSHOP ATMOSPHERE APPROACH: The following approach to jazz improvisation is designed for teachers of melodic instruments. The major strength of this approach is that it presents improvisation solely by melodic means without requiring a thorough background of traditional harmony. Since this system operates on an instant feedback principle, and should be taught on a one-to-one basis or in a small group situation. The complexity of melody and rhythm that the student can assimilate will depend upon his/her background, technique, ear, and creative spontaneity. It must be remembered that this is only one of many “workable” approaches that are available for teaching jazz improvisation. The informality and spontaneity of improvising appeal to the teenage temperament. Improvisation gives young musicians an opportunity to gain confidence in playing alone. The ability to improvise is based on: 1. Knowledge of chords, scales, chord progressions, styles, and songs. 2. Creativity: a combination of environment, personality, heredity, and deduction. 3. Technique: the physical ability to carry out musical ideas….this takes practice. The fingers must instantly do what the brain or ear tells them to do. A great jazz solo consists of: 1% magic 99% stuff that is Explainable Analyzable Categorize able Doable (Quote from “The Jazz Theory Book” by Mark Levine pg. vii) LISTENING: Each student must know what jazz sounds like before he/she can play it. Listening to and analyzing jazz recordings is an important part of one’s development in jazz. (see CD listing on pg.

  • Carlos Patato Valdes Carlos Patato Valdes (November 4, 1926 – December 4, 2007) Was a Cuban-Born American Conga Player
    Carlos Patato Valdes carlos patato valdes (November 4, 1926 – December 4, 2007) was a Cuban-born American conga player. In 1955 he emigrated from Cuba to New York City where he played with Willie Bobo in Harlem. He was also known by the name “Patato”. He invented and patented the tunable conga drum (earlier drums had nailed heads) which revolutionized use of the instrument. Tito Puente called him “the greatest conguero alive today.”Since the 1950s Patato was among the congueros that were in highest demand in the Latin Music and jazz world. He played, toured and recorded together with singer Miguelito Valdés, Perez Prado, Beny Moré, Cachao López, with Tito Puente, Machito, Herbie Mann, Kenny Dorham, Cal Tjader, Art Blakey, Elvin Jones and other, also with Dizzy Gillespie and Quincy Jones, accompanying both on extended tours throughout Europe, and with the late Mario Bauza. Patato acted in and composed the title song of The Bill Cosby Show. In 1991 he contributed to the movie soundtrack for The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love. Patato was the leader of his own band ‘Afrojazzia’, which toured Europe in the spring of 1994. A lifetime smoker, carlos patato valdes had emphysema and died of respiratory failure in Cleveland, Ohio on December 4, 2007. For over 60 years Carlos “Patato” Valdez demonstrated how a musician could combine technical skill with superb showmanship. His conga playing demonstrated the fusion of melody and rhythm. It also reflected his keen understanding of rhythm as a biological constant that is rooted, quite literally, in the human heartbeat.

  • There Are Three Composers That I Have at One Time Or Another Tried to Play
    Love Will Come – new long web notes: There are three composers that I have at one time or another tried to play all of their songs: New Orleans R&B pianist Professor Longhair, The Doors, and Vince Guaraldi...Vince Guaraldi and his music are so much a part of the deep heart and soul of San Francisco, and of the experience of childhood, and beyond.” — George Winston In 1996, George released his first album of Guaraldi compositions, entitled LINUS AND LUCY - THE MUSIC OF VINCE GUARALDI. It nicely mixed well known-standards like the title track and Cast Your Fate to the Wind, with less well-known material, including some music cues that had only been heard in the soundtracks. George’s second album of Guaraldi music delves even deeper into the repertoire, uncovering some hidden gems. Like many musicians of his generation, George Winston first heard the music of San Francisco based jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi on his 1962 hit Cast Your Fate to the Wind, and on the 1965 televised Peanuts® animation special A Charlie Brown Christmas.
