This video is such a validating moment for us trombone players. A trombone player is front-lining with a good looking/talented singer while the saxaphone and trumpet players are obscured in the background... ... it doesn't happen often but it's nice to see the bone up front!!
Just found my funky Abba cd after losing it 2 years ago. Played it on the long journey home full blast. Drumming along to it the whole way. F***ing amazing album. Great band.
In the sun, I feel like sleeping I can't take it for too long My impatience slowly creeping Up my spine and growing strong I know what's waiting there for me Tonight I'm loose and fancy-free, ah-ah When the night comes with the action I just know it's time to go Can't resist the strange attraction From that giant dynamo Lots to take and lots to give Time to breathe and time to live Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark Summer night city Walking in the moonlight, love-making in the park Summer night city It's elusive call it glitter Somehow something turns me on Some folks only see the litter We don't miss them when they're gone I love the feeling in the air My kind of people everywhere, ah-ah When the night comes with the action I just know it's time to go Can't resist the strange attraction From that giant dynamo And tomorrow, when it's dawning And the first birds start to sing In the pale light of the morning Nothing's worth remembering It's a dream, it's out of reach Scattered driftwood on a beach Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark Summer night city Walking in the moonlight, love-making in the park Summer night city
I've seen the Funky Abba Concert twice, in Koblenz and in Bingen. That's great music. Really Awesone Funky Stuff! I'm very looking forward to the next Funk Unit Album. And Viktoria Tolstoy is just great!
i heard these guys when i was on holiday with family in stockholm, im so glad i did! theyre just so groovy its not fair! and i saw victoria tolstoy (the daughter of the great author!) in aberdeen, she was awesome! but to the man with the red horn...i love you!!
yeah i know, read above. the red horn comment was referring to mcp's lyrics from the track 'red horn' from the live in stockholm album. he is the man with red horn!
True but I think the energy is better here, I'm planning on using this as the first tune to learn in a funk band I'm starting and I think I'm taking a cross between this live track and the CD track for my cover.
Oplevede Nils Landgren - mande med det røde horn - for første gang i går på Svensk TV. Sikke dog en et elskeligt og musikalsk menneske. Og vi er vilde med den instrumentale måde, han bruger sin stemme på. Men fr. Tolstoy er også glimrende. :*
@romishark I've been transcribing a lot of nils solo's lately... his playing is almost a study in perfect funky use of chromaticism, you could almost write a book on how to play funk for trombone using only him and Fred Wesley... Check out his solo on "6 beauties on a roof top" from "5000 miles"
She's trying too hard, she's too excited. This is a known pattern of her on stage. Unfortunately it does the song no good, since she's almost screaming. But on the album version she's great!
