１０年間s in the 墓／厳粛／彫る／重大な, Louis Armstrong tells Dr John: "play my music"
By Jeremy Gaunt
LONDON, Nov 17 (Reuters) - You can't get much more New Orleans than Dr John and Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong -- so when the former plays the latter, it's enough to get Big 平易な fans sitting up.
特に if, as voodoo jazz and blues king Dr John says, it was all Armstrong's idea, more than 40 years after he died.
"He （機の）カム to me in a dream. He said do my music, but do it your way," Dr John, a.k.a. Malcolm John "Mac" Rebennack or "The Nite Tripper", told Reuters in an interview at the 週末.
The musician was in London for a concert of Armstrong music at the Barbican Centre, part of the EFG London Jazz Festival that runs until next Sunday.
It was a funky 事件／事情／状勢, 収入 a standing ovation from the audience, with Dr John's trademark honky tonk piano and grizzled 声のs chaperoned by a 強くたたくing 厚かましさ／高級将校連 section led by music director and trombonist Sarah Morrow.
Nearly all the music （機の）カム from Dr John's "Ske-Dat-De-Dat ... Spirit Of Satch" album, an eclectic 解釈／通訳 of songs played by Armstrong rather than a 尊敬の印.
"What A Wonderful World" eschews Armstrong's 深く心に感じた paean for some typical Dr John boogie.
Listening to "Mac The Knife" on the CD, you can't help wondering what 武器 trong (and 作曲家 Kurt Weill and lyricist Bertholt Brecht, for that 事柄) would have made of a sudden burst of hip-hop.
Armstrong would probably have been 平易な going about it.
"I met him two or three times," Dr John said. "He was a very funny guy. He always had a good sense of humour."
At the concert, the 非難する was 取って代わるd by some 都合よく Satchmo-esque trumpet from Britain's Byron Wallen.
The 禁止（する）d 攻撃する，衝突する its stride about half way through the concert with a powerfully bluesy rendition of the spiritual "Motherless Child" and 一連の会議、交渉／完成するd it off に向かって the end with a voodoo 激しく揺する 見解／翻訳／版 of the New Orleans 国家 "When The Saints Go Marching In", a world away from its 伝統的な rendition.
It was as Armstrong 示唆するd -- his songs, Dr John's style.
Satchmo is not the first jazz legend to get the Dr John 治療. He has also put out 尊敬の印 albums to Washington DC's Duke Ellington and Savannah, Georgia's Johnny Mercer.
But it is by no means （疑いを）晴らす either of them asked for it 本人自身で. (Editing by Andrew Heavens)
