harlem blues - mo better blues


재즈 음악 하면 저에겐 제일 먼저 떠오르는 앨범이며, 수록된 트렉중 제일제일제일!!! 좋아하는 곡입니다.

너무나 격정적으로, 울컥해서 . . . 더 빠져들게 만드는 노래죠.

확실히 영상을 통해 보는것보다는 눈을 감고 불을 끄고, 오로지 청각으로만 의존해 듣는 음악이 얼마나 나를 적셨는지. . . 그시절 시디피도 있었고, 카세트 테이프도 있었고, 미술학원이 끝나고, 이어폰을 끼고 한밤중에 집으로 향하던 그때 그 기분이 떠오릅니다.

이 앨범을 알게 된 때는 1996년 입니다. 재즈를 너무너무 좋아하는 오타쿠 같은 새로운친구가 생겼었죠. 지금도 연락하고 지내는,

그 친구가 재즈를 좋아하기에, 저도 듣는다고 무작정 산 앨범이 스파이크리의 "모 베러 부르스'의 사운드트렉이었죠. 재즈라고 산 앨범으로는 처음인 음반이고, 그 오타쿠 친구가 먹어버린 앨범이라서 더 절실하게 생각이 나네요. ㅠㅠ (빌려줬다가 안돌려줌. 결론은 뺏긴것임. . . )



이 음악에 취하고 싶다. 그땐 이 노래의 가사가 먼지 하나도 몰랐고, 막연히 할렘이라는 빈민가의 블루스인줄 알았는데, 그게 아니네요.


Lyrics~

you can never tell what's in a man's mind
and if he's from harlem there's no use of even trying
just like the tot his mind comes and goes
like march weather when he'll change
nobody knows nobody knows

 

the man i love well he just turn me down
he's a harlem brown
off times i wish that i were in this ground,
six feet underground
he allows me as no other could no no
then he surprises me leave me a note saying


he's gone for good


and since my sweetie left me harlem
well it ain't the same old place
though a thousand dandies smile right in my face
i think i move some hall maid who champ go out for a lark
just to drive off this mean you note harlem blues


you can have your Broadway give me Lenox Avenue
angels from the sky stroll seventh of that things i do

from Madame Walker's beauty shops to pro-system to
that may those girls angels without any doubt


there are songs for something harlem

well i'm taught its sudden death
to let somebody see you even stop to get trouble breath

if you never been to harlem

then i guess you'll never know
how these mean note harlem blues


i 've this one sweet spot in harlem known as Drivers' Road
ditty folk song call 'em one thing you should know

is that i have a friend who lives there
i know he won't refuse

to put some music to my troubles and call it harlem blues


and since my sweetie left me harlem
well it ain't the same old place
though a thousand dandies smile right in my face
i think i move some homemaid who champ go out for a lark
just to drive off this mean you note harlem blues


i've this one sweet spot in harlem known as Drivers' Road
ditty folk song call 'em
one thing you should know

is that i have a friend who lives there
i know he won't refuse

to put some music to my troubles and call it harlem blues


to put some music to my troubles and call it the harlem blues
harlem , the harlem blues
harlem , the harlem blues






Harlem blues and Again never !
The song is very very beautiful.
