Amazing Songs & Other Delights #18 The Wintry Songs edition a collaborative songs picking between António Cunha (Rua do Gin/um zero amarelo) and myself is now on mixcloud. Every season so far had its show, Winter could not be left behind. A while ago Antonio posted Billy Mackenzie’s Winter Academy which become the starting point for this show. He then sent me over 20 songs for I to choose from and weave my choices along with. The final result is ecletic, beautiful and very wintry. It ranges from Clinic to FINNEAS with enough room for John Parish, Pink Floyd, Zoot Woman, The Decemberists or The Beatles.

This edition could also be called The Family, Friends, Acquaintances & Muses Edtion since there are 16 songs by family members, friends, acquaintances and muses as in musicians/singer-songwriters I get inspiration from/inspire me. There are also a few instrumentals with different acoustic string instruments, such as acoustic/classic guitar, banjo, and viola campaniça a tradicional Portuguese 10 steel-string instrument from Vila Verde de Ficalho, Serpa (Alentejo), here played by O Gajo, in a modern approach embedded with our folk tradition. The tone of the show is mellow, covers also have its place, Bill Callahan’s cover of Leonard Cohen’s So Long Marianne, Isabel Silvestre singing Rui Veloso & Carlos Tê’s A Gente Não Lê in a fashion that would lead to believe this is an old Portuguese folk song, yet, it is from the early 80s. Karen Dalton, Tim Kerr, Nuno Prata, Townes Van Zandt and others contribute to a beautiful show.

Here is the mixcloud link for Amazing Songs & Other Delight #13 – The Smile On Your Face (Songs for Licas), another in memoriam show. It was a joint creation between myself, daniel blaufuks, Fred Somsen, Amândio Barbosa and Carlos Fortes. It was done for Licas (Luís Saraiva) drummer of Jovem Guarda and Pop Dell’Arte who died 35 years ago on the 4th of November. The mixcloud version differs from the broadcasted one, it has a few more second of silence after Funeral Blues. The choice of songs is a mix of songs from bands he liked and songs/bands/artists we thought he may like. On the tracklist choices, where two names exist, the first picked the band/artist, the second the song. The songs I selected are either of mourning, Funeral Blues, or songs that reminded me of him, how I have him on my 1986 diaries. Listening to the show I also seem to have picked songs in which the drums and, or bass, are quite “in the front”. Licas, and his unique way of being also appears in Daniel’s Lisboa Clichê. The songs were assembled in alphabetical order. At first glance, it seemed to make sense. Together, it works, and sounds very good, very Licas. It starts with songs from after his passing, goes through bands he liked, an instrumental from Jovem Guarda and a Pop Dell’Arte song (that he did not record, but for me is Licas, has his groove, joy and liveliness), to a lament, the aforementioned Funeral Blues, continuing with a selection of songs from bands he appreciated and others he may enjoy. It is a special and emotional edition, filled with amazing songs, other delights, lots of love and saudades. photo © Daniel Blaufuks.
