    Jack Teagarden. Slidin' Selena, I can't tell the difference when I close my eyes and listen. 5 Stars from me to Slidin' Selena!

    I don't agree. The reason why younger people in general don't listen to this music has to do with the fact that radio and TV stations totally banned this music from airplay. That is a complicated business choice having to do with too powerfull record companies that control music. Another thing is that it is seen as an old people's music.
    Actually wearing these colourfull outfits helped to get younger people interested in our band. It's true!
    Anayway, thanks for listening,

    In fact the story was quite simple, we where offered a contract for 130 shows (What was later renewed for another 200) with the requirement that we would buy and wear these outfits. So it simply meant a lot of work. Now we benifit that we can offer people a choice about what they want us to wear.
    Thanks for listening!

    @ABrandsma  13 лет назад +5

    @InBy9OutBy5 the story about the outfit is simple enough. We were offered a 100 gig per year contract, if we were willing to wear this. It was renewed 3 years, so we did more then 400 gigs thanks to it. Would you have said no in such a situation?

  • @bixchick007
    @bixchick007 15 лет назад

    I first hear this music at 22 hearing a live band in a restaurant and became hooked.
    Today's tradtional jazz bands tend to prefer a caricature of the style specifically to cater to the older festival going crowd. Matching outfits, ridiculous tempos and fluorescent lit conference centers send me screaming. Getting anyone younger and hipper than me to appreciate to the music in this type of atmosphere is next to impossible.

    Bert - you're completely right about the lack of airplay and the control that record companies have on music in general. I must say though that you're outfits are, perhaps, an aquired taste! I do love this tune, and your band really does it justice. Very good work.

    Thanks for your nice comments. We would love to play in the USA, but yet have to find someone who could book us there, like a booking agency or festival organiser.
    As individual musicians, Selena and I played in the USA, Selena in New Orleans (She was a big hit there) and I played in New York, San Francisco and New Orleans as well.
    Hope to find the right person.
    Kind regards,

    I will remove your message as I prefer it when people buy our CD's and DVD.
    When all people start free downloading the music we made, we cannot earn our living and have to find other jobs.
    We are not under contract with the big music businesses, so it is not so easy.

    • @ABrandsma
      @ABrandsma  6 лет назад +2

      A musical instrument is a tool to make music on. When you think that the choice of a musical instrument, one that simply belongs to this kind of music from the 1920's, says anything about the musicians in this video in the context of racism, is only the product of your own narrowminded view. You don't even know the people you are blaming and insulting in the same process. In reality, early jazz was a field, in segregated USA from that period, where musicians enjoyed each others progress, undepended from color of skin. They were not allowed in that country to play on stage simultaniously, but did practise and had jam sessions together. The political agenda on jazz music, stems from a later period, really.
