Not many of you realize Hal Green is a legend. He once filled in with the Bob Lafazio Jazz Trio at the Days Inn in Hackensack NJ. This was in the late 1960’s back before electricity.
Green's blatant rejection of the drummer's classical role -- to keep steady time -- is clearly a wry and yet bitingly sarcastic retort to the "machine-perfect" synth/drum-machine movement of the early 80's... and yet remains a compelling statement, even today.
Trumpet player: "...damn. Man, I forgot my horn at home" Producer: "Damn it. Welp, you're just going to hafta play the one that's in the prop box. You'll be fine" Trumpet player: "Oh, okay then."
@2:12 Love that effect coming in after the verse has already begun but then again that effect is so awesome I'd enjoy it anywhere during the song. Even if Hal isn't singing.
Hi, Does anyone know anything about HAL "CORKY" GREENS TOP BRASS? I have a record by them named ,"Maids of Madrid" and B side is Sugar Blues, yellow label CARNABY RECORDS LTD, NYC record number 1000 A. I reckon its a one off promo - mega rare. If anyone knows anything - please let me know
I've often dreamed of playing the lattice room.
LOL !!!!!!
To quote the “Mitchell” episode of “Mystery Science Theater 300”, “cedar lattice….works every time!”
I just found this show January of 2023 and I'm now officially a Super fan! This show is a gift that keeps on giving. Thank you, STS!
looking like that you might as well have been on the show quasimoto
@@chainsawteddybear Thanks, I wish I could have been!
I dedicate this song to all my dreams I've abandoned.
😂
"old baggy eyes" has still got it!
LOL !!!!!
I think I have found my new favorite show
The drummers sweater looks the way this song sounds
Lmmfao! They should call this the E.D blues

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!
Do Days Inns even have places where you can have a pand? Maybe it was by the pool.
I demand that this song be played at my funeral, just to piss my family off.
If you want to piss your family off, you could play this pretty much anytime
woah!
Done.
Thank you Hal. For everything. I'll always remember our night in Old Algiers.

Patrick Bateman?
kewkabe I agree
kewkabe I totally agree
Wait, what? He can not only drum but also sing? What an extraordinary talent!
He keeps his spare change in those eyes bags
This is the music people listen to after they draw a nice bath. Then take a hair dryer in with them.
Jason Bacon Hilarious!!!!!!!!
LOL !!, LOL !!!, LOL !!!
Spot on.
Unkind, they're legends.
This is the greatest song ever recorded
Hal's drumming career was brought to a sudden end when his grandson took back his drumkit.
The color of that drummers sweater is what came out of my mouth after I watched this
I really love when the drummer is also the singer such as Don Henley, Phil Collins & of course this 🙌🏻
Karen Carpenter and Ringo Starr too. Green's gotta lose the Toys R Us drum set though!
@@nostalgia6578 yes, he’s in a category with many icons Lol! As for the drum set the first time I saw him I thought he was in a wheelchair 🤪
These guys single-handedly killed jazz.
You can't find talent like this anymore
Or then.
Not even at Guitar Center? Say it isn't so.
@@nostalgia6578 The American Empire is kaput, clearly.
Possibly the greatest song ever recorded
Maybe on this show 😜
yeah post mortem
Not by this trio, thank you!
drummer guy lights up my life
“So, babe, are we going to Netflix and Chill tonight?”
“No, sweetheart, I’ve got something even better for us to watch.”
I like how the piano player looks like he's at a typewriter.
😅
This song will be playing at the end of the world.
😂🤣😂
You couldn’t get this guy started if you ran 1000 volts through him.
Hal took the money from this gig and upgraded to a First Act drum kit.
This trio amazing!
Hal is a wild man on that kit. Neil Peart ain't got nothin' on him.
Thanks for everything.
I enjoyed this
Trumpet player: "...damn. Man, I forgot my horn at home"
Producer: "Damn it. Welp, you're just going to hafta play the one that's in the prop box. You'll be fine"
Trumpet player: "Oh, okay then."
Gotta love the big finish! :)
"on the golf course, I'm under par"
Oh, wow. He really did sing that.
This song makes me feel like a thrift store hand me down
HAHA!!
Exactly
Crank up speed for a livelier performance
When the asteroid hits in december 2012, i'm going to make a drink, and blast this song as loud as i can.
zee339 What asteroid?
It turned out to be the perfect song for 2020.
Ol' Chitterlin' Eyes is back!
Hey Hal you want to check those bags at the front desk?
This is why speed metal was invented.
Conrad (Phillip Drummond) Bain on drums.
I thought it was Gov. Cuomo
This music evokes Route 9 in New Jersey.
As a mediocre drummer, here's a tip. You can either play shuffle or straight, but not both at the same time. lol
tell that to j dilla
@@liammcooper J Dilla has nothing on Hal Green
This is deep
I love the drummer's sweater
They play this song at the homeless shelter when they want despondent drunks to realize you haven’t hit rock bottom yet.
Yo, at 2x speed, this is a banger.
You’re actually extremely right
I actually did this and you’re right. A whole new and hilarious experience. Thanks for the tip!
Watch this at 1.5 speed~ It's much better~
@2:12 Love that effect coming in after the verse has already begun but then again that effect is so awesome I'd enjoy it anywhere during the song. Even if Hal isn't singing.
omg ! i cant get started with this video ! lol !
.............oh the rhythm, get down get down
The feeling's mutual, baby

At the golf course I'm, under par.
Oh brother! Where's Bob and Ray when you need them?
Trumpet player looks like he's going to pass out, especially near the end
Yes. He turned purple!

I dedicated this song to my daughter when we found out she shattered her hymen
LOL !!!!!!
OMG!
So that's where grandma's piano went.
If this song were a medical condition it would be erectile dysfunction.
I really want this to be playing as Trump leaves the White House.
The so long yeared secretly hidden major influence on Tom Waits
This guy is so off key that he's almost in key again.
Are they all playing the same song?
I don't even really buy they are in the same room at the same time lol
One person got started
I wish they hadn't
What in the holy cow?
This song would pair nicely to a compilation of Brooklyn Bridge suicide jumpers
2:19 Who's Greto Gurble? (I know, I know, Greta Garbo) That's what he said
More like I Cant Get Ended--Hey-Ohhhh!
tick tick tick tick tick tick tick tick
They just looked bored to death!
Likes to keep his eyes on his packed bags in anticipation of the ever present risk of eviction..
The hasbeens that never were.
He can’t get started?
Nor should he.
Governor Mario Cuomo, ladies and gentlemen.
What, they exhumed his body?
@@nostalgia6578 he wasn't dead in '83.
it is hard to drum and sing.....I'll give him a participation award for trying though....
Drummer always looks sad
They should have named he band "The Billy Joel's Bastard Combo"
😆😆😆😆😆🤣💥🚽
They woulda been huge if not for Phil Collins and those Genesis bastards.
I'm not sure if I want Hal to sing louder to drown out the drums or drum louder to drown out his voice...has to be the drums, please drum louder
Hehe, this is a sad old man's love song. This is why viagra was discovered.
This is why vagina was discovered.
Keith Moon has nothing on this drummer.
Keith Moon takes a bad seat to Hal Meteor

Muzak was better
Phil Collins ain't got shit on this guy
