sleazzzy noir cabaret  or something like that...  I really like this, the sound is so smooth and balanced; vocal is authentic, the drum pulse done in old school subdued style; this is really classic in the Cab Calloway, Dan Hicks, Tom Waits tradition; excellent work guys!

@user-138663860: Hey Sunny. Hope you are good out there. Thank you, don't tell anyone, but this is my fav.

@user-138663860: I don't know what to tell you. Computers do things and I never have a plan.

Love the sultry mood of this, great listen

"Chan Chan" is a 1984 son composition by Cuban trovador Compay Segundo. It was first recorded in 1985 by Compay Segundo's own group. In 1987, he approached Eliades Ochoa, who agreed to record a version with the Cuarteto Patria. However, EGREM did not release these recordings until the second half of the 1990s. In November 1995, Compay recorded a new version in Madrid for his Antología, released on CD the following year. In March 1996, Compay Segundo, Eliades Ochoa and other veteran Cuban musicians recorded a new version of the song as part of the Buena Vista Social Club project. The song became the opening track of their eponymous album and the group's signature song, thereby achieving international fame.

Lyrically, the song is set on the beach and revolves around two central characters called Juanica and Chan Chan. The most complete explanation says: 'The song relates the story of a man and a woman (Chan Chan and Juanica) who are building a house, and go to the beach to get some sand. Chan Chan collects the sand and puts it on the jibe (a sieve for sand). Juanica shakes it, and to do so she shakes herself, making Chan Chan embarrassed. [...] The origin of this tale is a farmer song learnt by Compay Segundo when he was twelve years old.

The most recognizable part of the song is its chorus, whose lyrics are as follows:

De Alto Cedro voy para Marcané
Llego a Cueto voy para Mayarí

From Alto Cedro I go to Marcané
I get to Cueto, then head for Mayarí

Missing You

"Coquette" is a 1928 fox trot jazz standard. It was composed by Johnny Green and Carmen Lombardo, with lyrics by Gus Kahn. Guy Lombardo had great success with the song in 1928. Here is a version of the original https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4qcCIH0yg0.  Very interesting documentary about Guy Lombardo, what a  gentleman., .just right  here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyLBnPo7R-Y


Lyrics

Hear me, why you keep fooling?
Little coquette, making fun of the one who loves you
Breaking hearts you are ruling
Little coquette, true hearts tenderly dreaming of you
Someday you'll fall in love as I fell in love with you
Maybe the one you love will just be fooling too
And when you are alone with all your regrets
You know, my little coquette, I love you
Someday you'll fall in love as I fell in love with you
Now maybe the one you love will just be fooling too
And when you are alone with all your regrets
Now you know my little coquette, I love you

Here is Louis Armstrong's hot jazzy version

I discovered recently with great surprise a wonderful slow version from Tuba Skinny in the best New Orleans revival style ... somehow at slower tempo ...kind of close to the original in a way .. where every note seems to be played with such an immense delectation  :) wow  .. loved it !! ....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLl8-M5rwq0
That was it ...thanks to the help of Soundcould friends , this project came to life !  So let me introduce by order of appearance :
- BJP https://soundcloud.com/bakingjazzpower doing the acoustic  rythmic guitar, Banjolele, washboard & lead guitar-cornet, isn't he amazing ?
- Pierrou https://soundcloud.com/pierrou at the guitar for the first chorus, jolly well done my friend !!  We had a fun start didn't we ?  ;-) https://soundcloud.com/pierrou-tissan-private/funny-news-orleans
-&  last but not least , Phil at the electric guitar for one the last chorus  with his magic slow hand jazzy  touch !!
 I am gladly playing the wind instruments (clarinet - Mr Craig Flory is such an inspirational clarinetist- , I tried also to play the clarinet like a sax, maybe I should play the actual sax some day,  & vst- Tuba since my real  tuba abilities are kind of ... squeaky !! )
Hope you enjoy !!  Have a great coming WE !! Steph
