The Palace of Nostalgia

tue 31 jan 2023 17:00 hour

Time for time.

 

“Nobody is rich enough to be able to buy back their past,” said Oscar Wilde. But, musically speaking, we’re still trying.

An episode about the passing of time.

Featuring the beautiful Lee Wiley (“Time on My Hands”), R&B group The Ravens (“Time Is Marching On”), an early singing attempt by Chet Baker (“Time After Time”) – once deemed “worthless” by pianist Russ Freeman, but now beautifully matured.

The electronic wizard Dick Hyman is fascinating on his album “The Age of Electronicus” with “Time Is Tight.”

Also featured: The Beau Hunks Saxophone Soctette with a beautiful reprise of an old Dick Willebrandts song (“Denk Jij Nog Aan Dien Tijd?”), The Ink Spots (“Time Out for Tears”), a bitter song by Joost Prinsen (“Die Mooie Kindertijd”), The Brothers Four (“The Green Leaves of Summer”), entertainer and mathematician Tom Lehrer (“When You Are Old and Grey”).

Steve Leadford and Daniel Nicholson sing about the fate of a man who has to go to jail for 99 years after a murder with the Carolina Ramblers Stringband.

Coleman Hawkins and Oscar Peterson (“How Long Has This Been Going On?”), once again “Time on My Hands,” now with the butterfly-like voice of Rose Murphy.

Also included are June Christy, John McNeil, Billie Holiday, and Lisa Hannigan with Herbie Hancock (“The Times, They Are A-Changing”).
