DJ Hairy Larry Presents Jazz Writers Big Band Playing “Elegy”
From The Archives Of Something Blue 2024-08-25
Thanks Marty, today we’re going to hear a Big Band play a composition written by an Arkansas jazz educator.
I went to school at ASU with Joseph Curtis. After he graduated he was band director at Hoxie and Trumann. He’s now in Law School in Little Rock.
I think the first time I recorded Joseph was when he was playing in an ASU small group called “Jazztette”. Ron Horton wanted me to take some video of him teaching jazz improvisation and I also recorded their concert. I interviewed Dr. Horton and four of the students and produced a documentary, “Jazztette – Teaching Jazz Improvisation”. They played an original jazz composition by Joseph Curtis called “Baile de Trece”.
I also recorded his band, Bluebeck, at KASU Jazz Thursday and Bebopalooza. I got to sit in with Bluebeck on guitar at the Jazz Thursday show. Gary Gazaway was the headliner at the Bebopalooza show and he invited Joseph Curtis and Ron Horton up to play on their closing songs.
Joseph was in NJHB and he played at our first session on December 29, 2012 as well as on many NJHB shows and albums in 2013 including my senior recital.
Joseph has played with my band Bebop Beatniks frequently and he is featured on the album “Church”. He would livestream with Bebop Beatniks from the Twitch Porch.
He participated in the KASU New Jazz In Jonesboro concerts at the public library. I got to play bass once with his band. He also played at New Jazz In Jonesboro with Ken Carroll and NJHB.
He contributed many of his songs to the Jazz Writers Big Band. I recorded most of their shows and the “Jazz Writers Big Band” album.
His brother Clinton Curtis plays amazing alto sax and I have also recorded him many times but that will have to be for another podcast.

Thanks Marty. Today we’re going to hear a popular TV theme song recorded at the Craighead Forest Bandshell.
I met Doug Hendrix at the bandshell and soon he was performing there. I got to record him several times. He was from Arkansas and living in Jonesboro but he had spent some time in Nashville working as a songwriter. Beside’s being an amazing songwriter he also plays acoustic guitar, fingerpicking like Chet Atkins or Jerry Reed.
On June 3, 2007, we had a fantastic lineup for Sunday In the Park, Doug Hendrix, George Hinds, Angie Owens, and Ronnie Presley, all fine Arkansas musicians and songwriters.

DJ Hairy Larry Presents Gary Gazaway Playing Leviathan
From The Archives Of Something Blue 2024-08-11
Thanks Marty, today we’re going to hear a contemporary jazz song recorded at KASU Jazz Thursday.
Gary Gazaway’s “El Buho” band was a popular touring act so it was great to get Gary to play at Jazz Thursday. We were putting on monthly shows at TheArts@311 in downtown Jonesboro and, don’t get me wrong, all the bands that played were great. I feature music from all of these shows on Something Blue and on my podcast, From The Archives Of Something Blue.
But we were really excited to get Gary Gazaway to put together a fusion band to play his compositions for us at Jazz Thursday. Gary has played with everyone, all over the world, from Steve Winwood and Joe Cocker to Phish. And he had great musicians in his band including Victor Wooten and my friend, Dr. Perry Osborne, a Jonesboro guitarist who did his undergraduate work at ASU.
Playing with Gary at Jazz Thursday on June 27, 2013 were
Patrick Fusco – keyboards
Doc Samba – Bass
Pee Wee Jackson – drums

DJ Hairy Larry Presents Hairy Larry Playing Bunnies
From The Archives Of Something Blue 2024-08-04
Thanks Marty. Today we’re going to hear a jazz song played to a rock beat.
During the pandemic I couldn’t play out but I still had to perform so I started livestreaming on twitch. To avoid copyright issues livestreaming I played only originals. After a few months of livestreaming 2 or 3 times a week I had settled in on 16 of my own compositions that I called my streaming repertoire.
I called my stream Hairy Larry Practicing Piano. It turns out that if you practice the same 16 songs week after week for two years you get pretty good at them. I had a routine. I’d record the stream. Then I’d listen back writing the song titles in order and I put a star next to the good takes. Then I’d make a video of the starred songs.
At first I would get two or three songs with stars but later on sometimes they would all be starred. And then I realized I had an album.

DJ Hairy Larry Presents Daniel Turner Playing Customized Bliss
From The Archives Of Something Blue July 21, 2024
Thanks Marty, Today we’re going to hear a solo guitarist play at the Brookland Methodist Church.
On September 30, 2015, I arranged for Daniel Turner to play at our Wednesday night Praise service. He does a solo act he calls The Infinite Calling and it’s improvisatory ambient music. We usually sang praise music on Wednesday nights, dancing along and doing the hand movements. So when we had special music I tried to bring in acts that were different to expose our kids to a variety of music. When Infinite Calling played that night I think I pretty much suceeded in doing that.
We had a lot of kids showing up for our Wednesday night services. So many that they outnumbered the adults in multiples of 4 or 5. Fifty kids and ten adults was a thing that happened sometimes. And when we were outnumbered like that we just had to blend in, singing, dancing, and doing the hand movements, just like the rest of the kids.
We’re Methodists so we were happy to host musicians who were Lutheran, Presbyterian, Jewish, and even Baptist. Sometimes we had bands singing at our church that couldn’t sing at their own church. But this was the first time we had a Buddhist.
When we had Wednesday night special music we didn’t have a service. The preacher would open with a prayer and then I’d introduce the band. After I introduced Daniel he gave a short Buddhist prayer. It fit right in.
I was worried his music would be a little much for the kids but they loved it. About ten minutes into his set some of the kids were lying on the floor in the aisle. Now we did tumbling in church but even for us that was kind of weird. And then the whispering started, the music sounds much better when you’re lying down. Next thing you know Gretchen and I were on the floor too, enjoying Daniel’s “Customized Bliss”.
That’s what he called his song, “Customized Bliss”, 36 minutes of guitar improvisation, a little bit too long for radio. So I have prepared an excerpt for us to enjoy on Arkansa Roots, about a sixth of his whole piece. I’ll post a link to the whole concert on the Something Blue website at sbblues.com.
So, here he is now, Daniel Turner, live at the Brookland United Methodist Church, recorded on September 30, 2015.

DJ Hairy Larry Presents The Rob Alley Trio Playing On A Clear Day
From The Archives Of Something Blue 2024-07-14
Thanks Marty, today we’re going to hear a jazz standard recorded at the Craighead Forest Bandshell in 2009.
When I met Rob Alley he was on the faculty in the ASU Music Department. I went to see him play trumpet at The Edge and he was nice enough to let me sit in on a couple of songs. So, when I was booking Sunday In The Park at The Bandshell I gave him a call and he agreed to come and play.
Playing with Rob Alley were David Eckert, bass; and Mike Overall, drums. David Eckert was a librarian at the Jonesboro Public Library and later on he taught bass at ASU. Mike Overall was president of the Jonesboro Jazz Society and Editor of the Jonesboro Sun. His column, Overall Comments, often highlighted the music scene in Jonesboro.

DJ Hairy Larry Presents Rhode Island Red and Hairy Larry Singing Walk Right In
From The Archives Of Something Blue 2024-07-07
Thanks Marty, today we’re going to hear some jug band music recorded at the King Biscuit Blues Festival.
It was October 5, 2006 and The Emporium Orkestra was playing at Bunky’s Breakfast on Cherry Street in Helena, Arkansas. That morning Rhode Isalnd Red and I were the early risers so our first set was as a duo. One of the songs we sang was “Walk Right In”.
“Walk Right In” was written by Gus Cannon and recorded in 1929 by Cannons Jug Stompers. In 1963 The Rooftop Singers had a big hit on the song. Rhode Island Red plays it more like the original while I had only heard the sixties hit.
Although we were a duo we sounded like a seven piece orchestra singing harmony vocals, while I played bass and rhythm when Red took the lead. I played my Mississippi saxophone on a rack while Red played the trumpet parts on his kazoo. And it’s Jug Band Music so we both played the drums with our feet and with hand slaps on our guitars.
One morning Rhode Island Red walked in and he had written a song. It’s really short so I’m going to sing it for you now.
We’re Hairy Larry and Rhodes Island Red
And we’re gonna play until we’re dead.
Well we ain’t dead yet. No no. We ain’t dead yet.
Ok now, they may kick me off the air for having too much fun so here’s Rhode Island Red and Hairy Larry singing the Gus Cannon song “Walk Right In”.

It was October 5, 2006 and The Emporium Orkestra was playing at Bunky’s Breakfast on Cherry Street in Helena, Arkansas. That morning Rhode Isalnd Red and I were the early risers so our first set was as a duo. One of the songs we sang was “Walk Right In”.
“Walk Right In” was written by Gus Cannon and recorded in 1929 by Cannons Jug Stompers. In 1963 The Rooftop Singers had a big hit on the song. Rhode Island Red plays it more like the original while I had only heard the sixties hit.
Although we were a duo we sounded like a seven piece orchestra singing harmony vocals, while I played bass and rhythm when Red took the lead. I played my Mississippi saxophone on a rack while Red played the trumpet parts on his kazoo. And it’s Jug Band Music so we both played the drums with our feet and with hand slaps on our guitars.
One morning Rhode Island Red walked in and he had written a song. It’s really short so I’m going to sing it for you now.
We’re Hairy Larry and Rhodes Island Red
And we’re gonna play until we’re dead.
Well we ain’t dead yet. No no. We ain’t dead yet.
Ok now, they may kick me off the air for having too much fun so here’s Rhode Island Red and Hairy Larry singing the Gus Cannon song “Walk Right In”.
