DJ Hairy Larry Presents NJHB Playing Circular Logic
From The Archives Of Something Blue - 2025-02-09

https://sbblues.com/2025/02/09/logic/

Thanks Marty, today we'll hear a band of students play the title track from their first album.

When I came up with the idea of doing the New Jazz In Jonesboro concerts at TheArts@311 I was a jazz student at ASU. So it stood to reason that I would recruit the New Jazz House Band, known as NJHB, from my fellow students.

We had our first session at the HairyLarryLand studio in Jonesboro at the very end of 2012. We recorded four songs, all original compositions. I was the only one who had played any of them before so it was kind of like jumping off into the deep end. No rehearsals, just put the music up on the stand, talk for a minute, and record it.

I took what we recorded and released our first album, "Circular Logic".

All of what came to be known as the NJHB sound, improvising the arrangements, leaving the chord change, group improvisation, and unusual instrumentation, was on display on that first album. As always, this was the only album with this exact lineup.

Playing at the session were

Mike Lovell - guitar
Garrett Tyler - drums
Matt Jackson - bass
Hairy Larry - piano
Cody Ballard - tenor sax
and
Joseph Curtis - trumpet and flugelhorn

Garrett, Cody, Joseph, and myself were in the ASU jazz program at the time. Mike and Matt attended ASU earlier. We all lived in Northeast Arkansas except for Matt who lives in southeast Missouri.

I've got to tell you these guys all played good. The one thing that makes NJHB work is talented musicians.

We generally played arrangements from 15 to 20 minutes long. Not exactly radio friendly. I did a new mix of "Circular Logic" keeping it all there but choosing the best choruses for this podcast. Go to the Something Blue website at sbblues.com for a link to the whole album including 12 plus minutes of this song as originally released.

Ok now, going back to the very beginning, recorded on December 29, 2012, here's NJHB playing my song, "Circular Logic".

Collaborate on "Malaysia" - 2021-10-17

I played this on my twitch livestream on October 17, 2021, with an arrangement designed for collaboration. Collaborators play over a piano trio with the bass and drums provided by an irealpro script with the chords for my original song, "Malaysia". The irealpro app can be viewed running on my tablet on the right side of the video screen.

Kit Bashir: "The cheque said “AMOUNT: two d…" - Aus.Social
Posted on Thursday February 06, 2025

The cheque said “AMOUNT: two dollars and forty cents BEING FOR: classified ad”, rounded block letters in green ink amid the printed prompts. My mother never wrote cursive.  “Thanks Mum“ I said, “I’ll pay you back from my paper round money on Saturday”

“No need” she said, “I’m going out; if you have the ad ready I’ll post it for you.”

I folded the cheque and the form I’d clipped from the newspaper.  It had been tricky writing on the newsprint with a pen “HOME COMPUTER Amstrad CPC6128 with monitor, printer and external 5.25 inch drive. Original software plus over 30 games. $425. Ph 551806”.

Kit Bashir: "You might think working a phon…" - G+DBN
Posted on Thursday February 06, 2025

You might think working a phone repair kiosk is a waste of my skills.   Yeah nah.

Today, this kid came in with an iPhone that was more than cracked, it was banana-fied.

“What happened?” I asked, turning the wreckage over in my hands.  I don’t think there was a single salvageable part.  “And have you considered just upgrading?”

“My novel’s on there”, the kid said, wringing his hands anxiously.  “It got ran over by a hauler bot.”

“Got a backup?”.   The tears in the kid’s eyes were all the answer he needed to give.  “Okay, event rebasing is the only way to fix this”, I gestured at the price board, “can you afford that?”

He gulped. “Uh, just.”

DJ Hairy Larry Presents Hairy Larry Playing Noumenology | Something Blue

DJ Hairy Larry Presents Hairy Larry Playing Noumenology
From The Archives Of Something Blue 2025-01-12

Thanks Marty, today I’m going to improvise jazz piano on a song inspired by Immanuel Kant.

Now Immanuel Kant was an influential philosopher back in the 18th century and he remains influential today. Kant created a dichotomy between phenomenon and noumena where phenomenon applies to things we can perceive with the senses and noumena are things that cannot be perceived. So I wrote this song called “Noumenolgy” about the study of things that cannot be perceived.
