Another lovely tune from Tuba Skinny. Recorded 4-10-23. You can tip the band via PayPal or Venmo. www.paypal.com/paypalme/tubas... account.venmo.com/u/Tubaskinny
Many thanks, Randy. This song - slightly unusual in being 40 bars (measures) in length - was composed in 1906 by James W. Acuff [music] and Emmett S. Dean [words]. It is usually played (as indeed by Tuba Skinny) in the key of A flat; but many bands play it more boisterously. It is very pleasant to hear this relatively gentle, restrained version. This gentleness is shown at its best in the harmonising backing of the final 24 bars of Craig's and Barnabus's solos.
Did you know that Acuff was the co-author of a book on music theory. In that book we learn that 'a beat is a mental pulsation, a throbbing sensation of the mind'.
Always associated it with Sam Morgan's Jazz Band - wouldn't be surprised if not the first recorded version, whether jazz or other genre ua-cam.com/video/-mKd_MaSprk/v-deo.html
My new favorite band! ( sorry still after the Beatles). Love your music and your style. I’ve seen you in person twice in NOLA. I live in Vermont and hope to see you when you are in Damariscota ME in August.
Hello Mr Duke. I'm Brazilian Director Bandleader of DIXIE SWINGERS JAZZ BAND from Lindoia SP-BR 🇧🇷. I watch all your Videos of Tuba Skinny and all are amazing fabulous musicians. Only that I made several contact with Tuba Skinny through of Website send several E-Mails and Messages without reply. Unhappy. Others Jazz Bands as Chris Barber, Papa Bue Had reply me.

@@axeleast8632 Interesting. It's surprisingly difficult to define what we take for granted as basic concepts in music. For example, what is a note?
@@PopsCoffee Acuff et al define notes as 'characters that represent the length of tones'.
@@axeleast8632 I see. Thanks. And, by their definition, what is a 'tone'?
