Jamming

Do singers jam?

[Deemac]

It's well known in jazz circles, and I do have fond memories of playing in the Newmarket Bar many years ago with James Sutherland as vocalist (the Z-Rox James not the music shop James!!). He invited the audience to come up with a subject for a blues song. And so 'Lawnmower blues' was born that very day!! (Who claims copyright to this masterpiece is debatable!!) Quite a difficult thing to do though. I presume also some rap artists improvise in a sort of trading licks type of ego contest thing.

I had the old jamming thang happening today, it was so funky

I played bass for most of it & wrote a tune called Taste Of Almonds.............we played around a shuffle style blues thang' (what a great woid ) & played a metal style version of P/belle's Canon in which the drummer & I swapped round between bass & drums

You don't hear nearly so much about jamming these days (you know playing for the crack). I remember walking around Thurso in the late 80s early 90s & you would hear people jamming in garages, kitchens, living rooms, high school halls the list goes on, the point is there was lots of it going & not all of it with a view to superstardom just guys & gals havin' a lark

The jam factor was boosted no end today & people around felt the same way "it was happening man" the musicians in question that made it happen

Jack Mcphee-drums & bass
Joe Paterson-guitar!!!!!!!!!!!!!
& ME-drums & bass

flippin' great crack

thanks guys

Do singers jam?

yes they do. indeed what deemac said about lawnmower blues stands although I would suggest that scat singing that you hear jazzers playing/singing is more of the jam thang as there are no words to get in the

if you neet-anot-anetta-know what I'm saying
