While having a toot along with a CD today called "Pete Fountain, Down on
Rampart Street" (Classic Sound Inc. in Georgia, CSI Classic 7785), I ran
into a song called Mumbo Gumbo. Quite a fun song to play along with. I
cant' find it in written in anything I own. Anyone know it? Anyone have
the written lead line & chords?
This is a curious CD. While the date is 1996, I think the recordings are
much, much earlier. There are no credits whatsover on it. Seems to be a
collection of studio recordings & live recordings, and all from different
periods. No effort was made, whatsoever, to "weld" the various types of
recordings into a good CD (this is what one does in "mastering", by the
way!).
Anyone else have the recording, or know more about it? I seem to remember
someone from DJML that visited Spain giving it to me, so I hope I haven't
hurt anyone's feelings. It's good music, just a poor CD, as far as the CSI
people go.
The songs are:
St. James
Lazy River
Jazz Me Blues
Mumbo Gumbo
Margie
That's a Plenty
Saints
High Society
Moanin' Low
South Rampart
