Mingus Bass
Charles:
I realize that you
are an incredible talent.
Music is like
breathing or dancing...
Silence is not lack of music...
It gives time for
the body to assimilate
the phrases,
and for vocalists to
sing...
Perhaps your melodies
should have an instrumental
AND
a vocal version.
You need a Joni
or a James:
Or a duet...
Musicians are a jealous bunch.
Example:
Sixty years ago, an 18-year-old David Grisman made his way to a place called the Coral Bar in West Paterson, New Jersey. He brought with him a portable Wollensak reel-to-reel tape recorder and a good measure of youthful chutzpah. He found the dressing room of his quarry – bluegrass stars the Osborne Brothers – and asked Sonny and Bobby if it would be okay if he recorded their show that night.
“And Sonny Osborne looked at me and said, ‘You can record the show. But if that ever comes out on a record, I’ll find you and I’ll k*** you.’”
Grisman, now 78, recounts this memory at his home in Port Townsend, Washington.
