Well of course you are! The good folks of DeadSplinter and DUAN are the coolest people on the planet, with superior and varied musical tastes. I, however, feel like my song source-memory has devolved to be akin to that of the mom who calls all her kid’s names before she gets the rights one. So again with the apologies, if I picked this band up from another DUANster.
Anyway…The band of the evening, Cool Sounds, is newish to me, and has a relaxing, pleasant, summery vibe. I could see listening to this while lounging outside with a tropical drink. In fact, I’ll wait…go get your libation of choice and kick back. Ready now?
“Lost nights, try to remember’; Feeling alive, feeling alive; Blue skies in the middle of the night; Feeling alive, feeling alive.”
Here is the Cool Sounds’ song Alive from their LP Sleepers:
And here is the eponymous Sleepers:
So darling, dashing, and oh so cool DUANsters, are you alive out there? Or are you sleeping? Please share your good stuff!
Queen – Cool Cat
DUANsters are the coolest cats!
Squeeze -Cool For Cats
Jeebus, I forgot about this song.
The lyrics are pretty iffy. I wasn’t sure about posting it. I’m rethinking a lot of stuff I used to listen to, and watch.
Very cool stuff Elliecoo (pun intended). How about we start with The Babe Rainbow – Johny Says Stay Cool
Just don’t drink too many cool drinks or you might end up with your Kidney in a Cooler
and I’ll end this with one for Butcher, BB King – Joe Cool
Really liked the Babe Rainbow!
I forgot about the BB King tune. This is the first thing I thought of.
Love Mr. Marsalis.
I first heard this song in the Lensic Theater in Santa Fe, NM. He played it for the audience about a month before the CD came out.
I don’t know that I am, but you and Keitel are some kind of cool!
Lucky Lance and the Star Devils
Thank you, Hannibal, you too are cool. Ohhh, and I needed a little bit of the devil tonight!
Secret Affair – So Cool
Good song!
The Hollies – Long Cool Woman (In a Black Dress)
Hard to believe that song is closing in on 50 years of age. It has such a good intro, and the story lyrics grab attention, “Saturday night I was downtown, working for the FBI.”
Sorry. Did you say “varied musical tastes”?
I did say that. And I meant every word. It a a joy to learn about the music of others, in this welcoming and supportive space/place (the magical world of DUAN!)
And while the song you posted is not ART, thank you for playing.
I like the Oceans of Slumber!
She is absolutely amazing live. I saw them as an opening act a couple years ago and was floored.
Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros – Cool ‘N’ Out
That is gooooood!
Glad you enjoyed it! For those playing at home, Joe Strummer is best known for fronting and co-founding The Clash (the voice does sound familiar, right?). The three year period with the Mescaleros ended when he died suddenly of an undiagnosed heart defect in 2002. There’s an interesting fusion thing going on with their work as Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros. It’s at times punkish, raggae, funk, rock, etc all smeared together.
did you catch a song for joe the other day?
