The Village Spot is then just ahead and to the right. </p><p>The menu looks interesting, Italian-ish, and not too pricey.

<p>There are rumors that Fats Waller wrote this song. Fats was known to sell songs for $100 when he was short on cash. I think Jimmy McHugh might have been his main beneficiary. In some biography, Fats' son said that whenever Fats heard this song he would get an odd scowl on his face.</p>
<p>I don't think this is going into a set list. Even w an instrumental verse intro & repeating the bridge & last verse w an outro, it is only coming in at 1:45. Too short.</p>

<p>Previous SongOfTheDay was the 1938 version of 'tennessee whiskey', comparing 1's lover to alcoholic beverages. This 1 compares 1's lover to food, LOL! Even worse, IMO. The phrase "blue plate of romance" is a good 1. ;-P</p>

<p>I would have guessed that this was a protest song from the early-mid 1960s - maybe because it's so bluesy? </p>
<p>Nope, 1941. Billie Holiday wrote the lyrics.</p>

<p>Nice place, very folksy, very comfortable interior; large, mostly covered patio out back. Great people, and thanks to my minder Marty & bartender David! Always a pleasure to work with professionals.</p>
<p>I set up in a rear corner of the patio facing towards the building. The sound was good, I could keep the volume fairly low.</p>
<p>Thanks to my Canadian friends Owen & Sheila Evans for coming out & taking some pix.</p>

<p>I was in the setting sun for quite a while, but there were breezes & fans blowing, so I was not uncomfortable.</p>
<p>I worked from a new set list, 1/3 Jaz Dumoz, 1/3 Jim Dumas, 1/3 Steve & Chris. After the 1st set, my minder Marty told me to play faster stuff, which I did - I just started skipping the slow songs. Then on my 2nd break, I pulled up some more faster tunes. I played a total of 44 songs.</p>
<p>I asked Marty why she wanted faster songs, she said that the slow songs made people sad. She'd rather they be upbeat, both the songs & the patrons. Interesting, playing in dance bands, it was usually like 3-4 fast songs to 1 slow. I had thought dinner music would be maybe more 50-50, but, apparently not.</p>
<p>When I played all Jaz Dumoz music in Lexington, I was told by a couple of people that I should not play so many slows. Not what I was expecting. I really don't notice slow songs "bringing me down" - I just enjoy when they are pretty songs, regardless of tempo. So maybe I'm different from most in that. I will keep evolving the set lists towards more fast songs.</p>
<p>The songs that do "bring me down" are generally in a minor key. I deprecated "i love paris" & "let's face the music and dance" because both struck me as ominous & foreboding, i.e., anxiety-producing, & NOT romantic, my goal. ;-></p>
<p>I had requests for:</p>
<ul> <li>Eagles. Did "lyin' eyes", "desperado", & "tequila sunrise". I think better would be "take it easy" and "peaceful, easy feeling".</li> <li>Willie Nelson. Did "you were always on my mind" & "without a song".</li> <li>"sweet caroline". The audience did their standard parts, I always love audience participation.</li>
</ul>
<p>Several patrons wanted to know how often I played there & when I'd be back, that was appreciated. Hopefully it will be soon, although "soon" at this point is probably next season. Looking forward to it!</p>Jaz Dumoztag:jazdumoz.com,2005:Post/69474382022-04-13T13:59:45-04:002022-04-13T13:59:45-04:00New and Improved!<p>I had ordered 150 of my most excellent business cards, designed by aspiring freelance artist <a contents="Rose Konopka" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://konopka.carrd.co/" target="_blank">Rose Konopka</a> (<a contents="rosegenevievek@gmail.com" data-link-label="" data-link-type="email" href="mailto:rosegenevievek@gmail.com" target="_blank">rosegenevievek@gmail.com</a>), as described <a contents="here" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jazdumoz.com/blog/blog/ship-it" target="_blank">here</a>.

<p>1st, <a contents=""i've got a feeling i'm falling"" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://youtu.be/NyhVzJYM6As" target="_blank">"i've got a feeling i'm falling",</a> 1929, added to the book 2021-05-27. #SongOfTheDay 2021-10-05.<br> "Hey Mister Parson, stand by".</p>
<p>2nd, "i'm sitting on top of the world", 1925, added to the book 2021-06-06.<br> "Glory, hallelujah, I just phoned the parson<br> 'Hey, Par, get ready to call!'"</p>
<p>3rd, "<a contents="i'm crazy 'bout my baby (and my baby's crazy 'bout me)" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://youtu.be/NYUWV71I-II" target="_blank">i'm crazy 'bout my baby (and my baby's crazy 'bout me)</a>", 1936, added to the book 2021-10-27. #SongOfTheDay 2021-12-18.<br> "Parson, get your book out".</p>
<p>A wider range of dates on these songs than I would have expected. I would have thought parson references would have been a fad/meme with a shorter lifespan.</p>
<p>---------------------------------------------------------------------------</p>
<p>It looks odd now, but it was by design: no new songs were entered from 2021-07-02 thru 2021-09-19. I had started booking gigs and was spending all my playing time practicing the set lists.</p>

<p>Louis Armstrong covered the song in 1955.</p>
<p>Leon Redbone covered the song in 1994.</p>
<p>So, 19 years Fats => Louis. 39 years Louis => Leon. 27 years Leon => me.</p>
<p>Clearly a song with some legs. Like so many Fats songs, the song is upbeat, happy, playful, and very fun to perform.</p>

<p>I grew up playing classical and electric guitars. I have never met a steel stringed 14 fret acoustic that I enjoyed playing.</p>
<p>1 Sunday at Cora Lee's open mic at Cosmic Charlie's at its cursed National Ave location, there was an old guy - Charlie Wethington, I think - playing an electric classical (nylon stringed) guitar.</p>
<p>I gotta get me 1 of those!</p>
<p>So Steve went with me to <a contents="Wilcutt Guitars" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://willcuttguitars.com/" target="_blank">Wilcutt Guitars</a>. They had 2 Fenders and 2 of another brand. The Fender CN-240 SCE Thinline sounded 2x as good as the others, so I bought 1. I found a nice matching strap at Willis Music, which used to have the largest local collection of straps.</p>
<p><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/571457/b11a07394382cbc770e6f84a8b600deab2fd3add/original/cn-240.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>Dark blond, with a woven floral rosette in gold and black. I played this in Steve and Chris from then on.</p>
<p>Jaz Dumoz was born around the start of the pandemic, spring 2020. When I was getting ready for my 1st Jaz gig, summer 2021, I realized I needed another of these guitars. I always like n+1 redundancy when I'm playing. Additionally, the nylon strings take weeks to get broken in. If I was gigging regularly and needed to change strings, I needed a 2nd guitar with its strings already broken in - 2 guitars kept in rotation.</p>
<p>I was back in Lexington and just figured I'd go to Wilcutts' and buy another 1. No luck, Fender quit making them.</p>
<p>So I turned to my friend, incredible guitarist Lindsay Olive, to find me one on eBay. He is very eBay-savvy.</p>
<p>He found one still in the factory box, about the same price I had paid before. So he got it for me.</p>
<p>I was expecting it to be identical to the other one. It was not: natural vs dark blond finish, and a very elegant, simple rosette, a ring of mother-of-pearl looking stuff. I found a great strap for it at etsy.com.</p>
<p><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/571457/13e64844353b3e676691425dca1932affecac742/original/cn-140.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>I was thinking, I would make this the primary Jaz Dumoz guitar. The older 1 I had played with Steve. Plus the beautiful blue strap matched my eyes ;-></p>
<p>Here's where the plot thickens. I'm practicing on the new guitar, the James Smith solo to "<a contents="honeysuckle rose" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://jazdumoz.com/blog/blog/honeysuckle-rose" target="_blank">honeysuckle rose</a>", trying to play an F and an F6 at the 13th fret. My hand is getting jammed in the cutaway?!?!?</p>
<p>I try it on the old guitar - no problem?!?!? I start measuring the guitars. The bodies are of a size, but look at the cutaways:</p>
<p><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/571457/9cc74cfef7b06ed07e4c3038ad8732752793c48e/original/cutaways.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>On the old (top) guitar, the farthest spot on the cutaway is between the 17th & 18th frets. </p>
<p>On the new (under) guitar, the farthest spot on the cutaway is between the 15th & 16th frets!</p>
<p>So 2 frets difference in accessibility up the neck, ~1.5" Here's me playing the F6 on the old guitar. There is not 1.5" separation between the side of my hand and the cutaway.</p>
<p><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/571457/e79fa43c6a61f856f0552ef352e3a6c54b7e0f96/original/f-at-13.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>It turns out the new guitar is a CN-140 SCE Thinline, not a CN-240 like the older guitar.</p>
<p>My 1st thought was that this was no good, I wanted the guitars to be equally capable. So I'd thought that I'd get another CN-240 and then sell the CN-140. There are more CN-240s on eBay, and you can see from the pictures that they have the same rosette and cutaway as mine.</p>
<p>But, I like the variety of the 2 guitars I have now. And so far, only 1 song out of ~150 where the smaller cutaway caused a problem - and not a fatal problem, you can grab the F chords, it's just a little harder. Other than that, they play pretty much identically.</p>
<p><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/571457/571585a173074087df2b6982b1c6d83bb0e1a539/original/2-guitars.jpg/!!/meta:eyJzcmNCdWNrZXQiOiJiemdsZmlsZXMifQ==/b:W10=.jpg" class="size_l justify_center border_" /></p>
<p>So for now, I'll stick with these 2. That can of course be changed down the road.</p>

<p>This was the original French recording of the song. In 1950, several artists, including Edith and Louis Armstrong, recorded the song in English. I included the kiss and "C'est la vie." at the end from Edith's 1950 English version.</p>
<p><a contents="The Louis Armstrong version of the song was Song of the Day October 26, 2020." data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRAXJzMKyCs" target="_blank">The Louis Armstrong version of the song was Song of the Day October 26, 2020.</a> Edith's English version included an interlude, Louis's didn't.</p>
<p>I got a copyright claim on YouTube for this song. From Sony, for infringing on "La Vie En Rose, Live (2012)". 1947 is 74 years ago??? I thought copyright was 70 years, apparently it's 95. Still, claiming I'm infringing on a 2012 recording I've never heard of, copying a 1947 song seems incongruous. I contested the claim. An interesting exercise, hopefully I won't lose my YouTube channel.</p>
