Three of Kind – Summer edition!
Three versions of the same composition, played by different artists.
Just before Bert Broere ends his series on Thelonious Monk on August 14th, we will play some hors d’oeuvres with a strong tinge of barbecue – but according to a recognizable formula. Two or more executions of the same piece, but in various marinaded arrangements.
Sultry days tend to cause nostalgia, and with such temperatures the boundaries between Pop and Jazz will likely melt into one another. Just to warn you…
Angela (Theme from Taxi)
St. Elsewhere – Theme
Linus & Lucy (Peanuts/Charlie Brown)
Hill Street Blues (Theme)
Suicide is Painless (Theme from M*A*S*H)
Waydown in the Hole (The Wire – theme)
