  • @southernloff1494
    @southernloff1494 5 років тому +70

    Erika Lewis using her 'plain blues voice', and Shae Cohn on cornet directing the changes-what could go wrong! The answer is, simply NOTHING!. No matter the genre' or the situation, Tuba Skinny delivers. I would like to see more of Shae on piano(as I have), but that would detract from her excellent horn performances. I just look forward to seeing them again.

Don't you think this is cruel? My trusted lawyer says he will apply for a restraining order protecting my kitty if I bring him $ 3500.00 , in cash. What do you think , should I pay him? I am retired on a fixed monthly income less than his retainer fee. Poor me, I don't know how to proceed. Any serious suggestions would be dearly appreciated. Poor me.

    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.

They all play their instruments so well, and Erika's voice is enchanting...it's like listening to blues/jazz of yesteryear on 78 record disc. It is magical, enchanting and haunting. Indeed the whole band conjures up that same feel, makes you want to lay back with a beer and ciggies and enjoy. Wish I were in New Orleans to see you for real, not back in U K. Brilliant.

      So refreshing to see artists who don’t play silly games to attract attention. With their talent and their craft they don’t need to, to be appreciated. The paradox being, with internet, we share the intimacy of them playing in warm, modestly sized places. Probably there was a time where more people were adept playing instruments and that feeling was not so rare. I don’t like to dance but if I am lucky to see them in the flesh, I probably would. This is telling how literally moving they are,

    As someone who had sung all of my life, I know how hard it is to sing when you have a cold and are feeling lousy let alone do a public performance. I don't think enough credit is given to Erikas vocal on this song, it is quite outstanding considering she was technically poorly. She has a dream like voice anyway but on this very beautiful song, she manages to make it her own and no one else could sing Little Coquette like her, blisteringly beautiful and a credit to TS and that dark chocolate with whipped cream clarinet solo to complete the perfection of the performance. WOW!

      It isn't just the voice, it's the spirit that makes the big difference in vocals, I think. And Erika has a wonderful spirit!

    Aaahhhhh. I'm so glad you were standing near the clarinet while filming. He is so subtle I sometimes miss hearing his skills, but today, OMG, so smooth and creamy. I keep coming back to listen to this song!

      Craig always happier in the lower register I think. The band do wonderfully well here and the vocal is just adorable.

    They're playing a hall but their sound has that wonderful street vibe and feeling to it.
