The Dr. Jazz Podcast: Jazz-Rock or Rock-Jazz? Part 2 (2023)

“Zo is men soms alleen in huis: de dingen verliezen binding met de werkelijkheid. Wegglijdend in een slaap buiten de tijd houden zij op te glanzen en te zingen. En zij ontkennen hun herinneringen en raken langzaam hun geheugen kwijt.” Harriet Laurey toeft in een muzikaal bed met #KommilFoo #HarrySacksioni #LouisCK #KeesTorn #DjangoReinhardt #StephaneGrappelli #HermanvanVeen #JamesBrown #CarmelMcCourt #Maze #Prince #MarvinGaye #BillyJoel #BobbyMcFerrin #HarryBelafonte #GregoryPorter #KayStarr #TonyBennett #AlejandroSanz #KeithJarrett #TheloniousMonk #EarlHines #FrankBoeijen #AlainMazijn

Hi everyone! It’s been a while…(I know). But I’ve been dealing with a lot of personal things and a great deal of very little down-time. That being said, I’m going to try and give this thing a “go” and keep it going. Rather than try to find a clever theme or anything, I’m returning to my mission statement of just giving you music that aims to “cure whatever it is that ails you” and hopefully that will be good enough. I sincerely appreciate those of you who are faithful listeners. Thank you!

Dr. Jazz - Return of Dr Jazz


Rivers have always captured the imagination of humans. Many hymns have been dedicated to them. Their beauty lies in the landscapes they traverse. 
Shenandoah is an American folk song. It was first a riverman's and then sailor's song. And this is just a beautiful melody – FOLLOWED BY MY OWN IMPROVISATION ON IT.

Here are the lyrics from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oh_Shenandoah 

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to see you,
    And hear your rolling rivers
    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away, you rolling river.
    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away, we're bound away
    Cross the wide Missouri.

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I love your daughter,
    Away, you rolling river.
    For her I'd cross
    Your roaming waters,
    Way, we're bound away
    Across the wide Missouri.

    'Tis seven years
    since last I've seen you,
    Away, you rolling river.
    'Tis seven years
    since last I've seen you,
    Away, we're bound away
    Cross the wide Missouri.

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away you rolling river.
    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away, we're bound away
    Cross the wide Missouri.

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Far away, you rolling river.
    Oh Shenandoah,
    Just to be near you,
    Far away, far away.
    Across the wide Missouri.
