DJ Hairy Larry Presents Copyright Infringement Playing Stella By Starlight
From The Archives Of Something Blue 2024-04-21
Thanks Marty, today we’re going to hear a band of young musicians play a jazz standard.
It was my great good fortune to be able to work with high school jazz musicians at the Delta Jazz Workshop for several years. I enjoyed the workshop sessions and listening to rehearsals but my favorite job was rehearsing small groups made up of workshop attendees, mostly high school students.
In July of 2018 I was given some amazing musicians including a rhythm section of young musicians who were already playing at a professional level. So this was a great opportunity to show these students the whole process, selecting songs, creating instrumental sections, writing arrangements, and rehearsing for a concert.
And we had five days to make all this happen.

DJ Hairy Larry Presents Jay Shepherd Playing Blue Bossa
From The Archives Of Something Blue 2023-07-30
Thanks Marty, today we're going to hear a bossa, featuring two of my friends, recorded at the Delta Jazz Workshop.
Besides being a jazz clinic the Delta Jazz Workshop is a mini festival with five jazz concerts from Monday through Friday. You can't learn jazz without listening to jazz and since there's no music like live music you can't play jazz without listening to live jazz. So the nightly concerts are actually an integral part of the learning experience.
The concerts were also a great opportunity for me to record Northeast Arkansas jazz musicians for Something Blue. I mean, I was going to the concerts anyway so I might as well roll tape, I mean fill flash cards, the modern day equivalent of tape.
On July 12, 2016, it was Jay Shepherd's turn to bring his band and play. I've known Jay for years and he's played guitar with Bebop Beatniks and with NJHB. He plays stand out performances on the new Bebop Beatniks album, "Church" and he is also featured playing with NJHB on "Bop Soup" recorded at my Senior Recital.
Also featured on "Blue Bossa" is my friend Tyler Worsham on piano. He helped me many times at my recitals. He played at Trilogy For The Arts and he is featured on the NJHB album, "Blue Goose", recorded at New Jazz In Jonesboro in the Jonesboro Public Library.
Also playing on "Blue Bossa" are Terrell Montgomery, bass and Keyven Dunn, drums. All of these musicians were students at ASU.

01. DJ Hairy Larry Presents Jazz Writers Big Band
02. Something Blue - Speakable - 29 second spot
Thanks Marty, whenever I'm working on a jazz show I always check through my Delta Jazz Workshop archives.
Every night during the Delta Jazz Workshop there is a different band performing for the students. I try to record all of these performances for the musicians and for the Archives of Something Blue.
On July 11, 2016, we were at Riceland Hall to hear Jazz Writers Big Band. I was fortunate to get good recordings of this performance. They never play the same show twice. Members of the band write or arrange all of the songs they play and they are always coming up with something new. Which makes them perfect for Something Blue.
