...Darlin' (MP3 I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't realize Neal Hefti was still around in 2008 until I saw his obituary this morning. He was 85. Like every American boy my age, this TV theme song composed by Hefti is part of my DNA. As an ostensibly mature Kansas Citian, I now recognize that Hefti's greatest contribution may be the Count Basie...

...Darlin'." The Gladiolas version came out in the first week in February, 1957. In less then two weeks the Diamonds version was out. Legend has it that prior to the recording session the group rehearsed the song all night in their hotel room, becoming so fed up that they exaggerated the bass and falsetto parts in an attempt to turn the song...

...Darlin. Its some kind of insane mix between art-rock, punk and a sea shanty. I kind of dig it because they sound as though they were drunk while they recorded it. Rich Cash alternates between Julian Casablancas lethargic rumble and Frank Blacks trademark yowl. Check it out below alongside a daffy video with a carnival on a pier. Oh, and Im...

Neal Hefti (1922-2008)

...Darlin', one of Hefti's best known ballads. Not long ago I spoke with saxophonist Hal McKusick [pictured], who recorded with Hefti's bands in the 1950s, about the song and its slow, un-Hefti-like tempo When I asked Neal about it, he said he originally wrote Lil' Darlin' as a medium-uptempo tune. But after Basie ran it down the first time, he...

"Wild One" - Those Darlins (Appalachian authenticity, with attitude)

2008-12-16 15:30:00 by Jeremy in Fingertips
 
...Darlins Take the Appalachian back-porch music of the Carter family and paste a Lily Allen-style 21st-century 20-something's attitude on top of it and here we are. This is not complicated stuff, but it's utterly charming, somehow. To begin with, there's something wonderful in the air when you're hearing three women, employing a hillbilly...

...Darlin': "When I asked Neal [pictured] about the song, he said he originally wrote Lil' Darlin' as a medium-uptempo tune. But after Basie ran it down the first time, he asked Neal if the band could try it really slow. Basie said, 'I'm hearing something.' Neal said sure. He knew Basie's instincts were always spot on. Basie said, 'Let me beat...

...Darlin', Darlin' / You never even called me by my name But perhaps the greatest part of 'You Never' is the final verse Well, I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison / And I went to pick her up in the rain / But before I could get to the station in my pickup truck / She got runned over by a damned old train Go ahead and listen to the...
