Anyone notice one of the bigger changes?
Across the top of the page it now says: "Squirrel Not Zippers".
Either Kenny's frustration is bubbling though again, or it's a hint of some
sort....
Oh, and was that something of a Freudian slip when he said he couldn't 'wait
to see what Mammoth would do *to* the Ghost of Stephen Foster video'?
I don't remember them coming right out and saying it before, but reading
between the lines often gives me the impression their relationship with
Mammoth is, at times, tenuous....

Hey all,
If you go to the official site...check out what's at the top of the page.
It's a graphic that introduces the site as "the official Squirrel Not Zipper
merchandise website."
Squirrel Not Zipper? Hope that's not a new name or something. :) I think
they're just a bit bitter about their legal trouble.
I found it kind of amusing.
Take care,
Emily

I definitely think Roasted Right is worth the money. I actually found my
copy at a little privately owned record store for about $7 about a year ago,
so you might call around a little, but I wouldn't be too optimistic.
This brings to mind something I was thinking about. Does anybody know if
anyone has put together a definitive discography for SNZ? By definitive, I
mean that every recording they have released as a band is listed (albums,
EPs, singles, remixes, comp. tracks, etc.). If somebody hasn't already done
this, I might be interested in working on such a project. Another thing
that would be great to go along with this is a complete lyrics listing, with
ALL their songs, including variations in different recordings, and those
shouts and stuff that aren't normally listed. (My friend used to insist the
line in "Hell" was "pass the corn nuts!" until I figured out, with no help
from any lyrics I could find, that it was "bank the furnace!") One thing I
have tried to figure out before to no avail is the Spanish part in the Sold
Out cut of "La Grippe" - lyrics, translation, and vocalist....can anybody
help me out with that?
Just thought I'd bounce those ideas of you guys and see what ricochets and
hits me in the face.
Out,
Tyler

Subject: re: discography
Hmmm....definitive discography.
Sadly, there's not much that could be put on there in the way of actual
all-SNZ recordings. There's hardly any promos, even, and only one single i
can think of.
Off the top of my head, there's:
Roasted Right EP
Sold Out EP
The Inevitable
Hot
Hell Aussie Single
Perrennial Favorites
(Plus, the vinyl editions of all these albums)
Christmas Caravan
Then you could add soundtracks and other things they're on as a band:
blast From the Past
The Garden Place
A Life Less Ordinary
Live from 6A
Rows of Teeth (Merge Records)
Stacy Guess Legacy
Albums on which band members appeared:
The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner (BFF, tom and ken)
Back in the 90's (Hobex, to, ken, jim and je)
thrills (Andrew Bird; jim, kat, chris)
El Baile de la Cobra (Cigar Store Indians; Ken)
Scoundrel's Waltz (Joe Tullos; jim, ken, tom)
Lucky eye (Flat duo jets; tom and ken)
Other bands:
Knockdown society (jim)- songs for Rosetta, day before yesterday (one song)
Metal Flake Mother (jim)- Beyond the Java Sea (pressings 1 and 2),
Deem On EP
What Peggy Wants (Tom)- Death of a Sailor
Grover (Chris)- My Wild Life
Katherine Whalen's Jazz Squad (kat)- s/t
Okay now y'all add to this!
or just forget it.

So, what do you want me to ask them? try not to focus too much on the

Give me good stuff! Also, don't expect me to ask them everything you come

from any lyrics I could find, that it was "bank the furnace!") One thing I
have tried to figure out before to no avail is the Spanish part in the Sold

Subject: SNZ on Jeopardy
A very alert friend of mine, you may know him as FactBoy of Shrubbery fame,
called me today to tell me that on today's Jeopardy (college champions),
there was a "neo swing" category.
No one knew any of the answers, except Brian Setzer and maybe RCR
(question: this band is in a name dispute with a cola company).
SNZ was the answer to one of the questions (or, a question to one of the
answers) which was something like "This North carolina band got it's name
from a chewy peanut candy." The guy answered "Who are
Squirrel...Nut...Zippers?" and the audience had a nice giggle and he got
the points.
My my, back to that "neo-swing" category again, aren't we? And it's nice to
see that these genius college students are keeping up with current fads ;)

Subject: Jazz & Discography (Discography Duck?)
Still no word from SBC. I might get lucky and get it here before the end of
the week, but if not, the college will have to forward it to my home, 'coz
I'm leaving Saturday for the great Des Moines.
The Mammoth site has this posted on their main page next to the SNZ logo:
Order any Squirrel Nut Zippers title from the Mammoth Online Store and get a
free "Suits Are Picking Up the Bill" remix CD!
Has anyone heard this CD? And should it be part of the Discography?
Ryan: Unfortunately, not all jazz played in jazz band is "Big Band" style
music. A lot of groups will play a good deal of fusion and cool jazz, which
is nice sometimes, but sucks when you just want to play swing. (Some of the
fusion is actually pretty cool, like Birdland, or Watermelon Man, but some
of it is pretty awful; same with the cool jazz. But then there are some
crappy transcriptions of swing tunes, like the copy of Moonlight Serenade we
played this year, so you learn to grin and bear it.) But being in the group
is more than worth it, just so you can play and learn. I love playing jazz,
even though I basically suck at it, because you get to be part of the
process.
Happy playing! (What part will you be playing, by the way?)

Hmm...I've been in jazz band since 8th grade (holy cow, 7 years!).
We play all sorts of stuff. My college band plays a lot of Basie, and Miles
Davis. We did 3 Les Hooper tunes this year, which were pretty out there.
I've also played some Glen Miller (usually just for dances, like "In The
Mood" and "String of Pearls")...Herbie Hancock, Tower of Power, and those
silly classics like "Satin Doll," "My Funny Valentine," "Volga Boatman"
(okay that one isn't silly, it's seriously tough), "God Bless the Child,"
"Imagination," and so on and so forth.
I don't think I've ever played any serious Ellington, but I could be wrong.
I've been fortunate to be in some really great bands. As a freshman we were
playing college-level stuff. It helps when your director is a professional
jazz musician (in high school) and my college director is also a
professional jazz musician (he plays with the cleveland jazz orchestra.)
Just my luck, they are both professional trombone players, which is what i
play. So it's tough to be so shitty like me.
Luckilly, i have "panache" and have been first chair most of those 7 years
But trust me, I suck.

It really depends on what the director wants. I've been through four
directors for various jazz bands in middle and high school, and each
have different emphases -- swing, more modernish jazz [feh], latin,

From: Andy Harman
Subject: High School Jazz
Back when I was in high school (72-75) I played trombone in the jazz
ensemble. We played a variety of stuff from cool to big band and some
balls-out rock tunes with more of a Blood Sweat & Tears sound. We usually
did at least one "fund raiser" gig per year, usually for a bunch of
retirees who wanted to hear big band era stuff. Most of the standards were
easy enough to learn at least in the arrangements we had, all the Glenn
Miller stuff like "In The Mood", "String of Pearls", etc. We also did a
few of Hank Levy's odd-time tunes like "Hank's Opener" (7/4) and "Chiapas",
a 5/4 tune at breakneck tempo. We had a DREADFUL "cool jazz" arrangement
of "Riverside" which in the three years I sat in jazz band was probably the
sorriest piece of crap we ever latched onto. Our director, in my senior
year caved in to pressure and did us a huge favor by allowing us to drop
that drek (which he called "real jazz") in favor of a rock blaster tune
called "PC WALLBANGER" by J. Hill. What a monster tune that was, I've
never found a recording of it anywhere and our band recordings are probably
gathering dust in someone's closet. It had an opening on par with BST's
"Lucretia MacEvil" in terms of sheer excitement and a ripping, Killer-like
piano solo from Billy Larkin. I'd love to just get my hands on the sheet
music for that one. Coupled with our other numbers, we took first place at
the OSU competition in May of '75, the last performance we did as a group.
I haven't been in a band since unfortunately. The good news is the bari
sax part was even better than the trombone part in "Wallbanger". I'm
willing to track the whole thing and play all 5 trombone parts (including
bass), all 5 sax parts (2 alto, 2 tenor, bari) but I need a nimble-wristed
drummer, 5 trumpets, and Billy on the piano which is likely to cost me....
Opener for the senior variety show was Thad Jones' "Tow Away Zone", a neat
little number with an electric piano opening. Then there was the K. Welsh
(our beloved director) arrangement of a Quincy Jones / Bill Cosby theme
called "Chump Change" which has got to be the best opener since
"Ghostbusters". I know Quincy recorded that tune, but I've never been able
to find it.
Another very popular tune that just wouldn't die was an arrangement we had
of "Mercy Mercy Mercy" (old song originally recorded by the Buckinghams).
This was the chance for the trumpet section to show off their funk n'
screech capability. The popular recording gives you some idea of the
trumpet part, but imagine it with 5 bones and 5 trumpets... we even had a
"doubletime" take on it where we boosted out of funk tempo up into rock
territory. Very cool, and yet so easy to play that when the school started
up a junior high jazz band, this was the first tune they played (again by
popular demand).
Best high school jazz band I ever saw was from Frankfort KY; Franklin
County High School at Moorehead College in 1974. Cannonball Adderly was
our host and judge. While our band dominated Ohio - trading first place
trophies with some pretty fine bands like Amelia and Dayton's
Chaminade-Julienne, we got our comeuppance in Kentucky and ended up tied
for third thanks to a last minute accoustic bass solo on "Chiapas" by a guy
who is now a doctor I think. Cannonball preached the importance of the
bass fiddle as a "real jazz" instrument, and Eddie was our ace in the hole
- -- we were the only band that had one.

I bought the sheet music for the alto sax for "Take Five" - actually
written by saxophonist Paul Desmond. That's a pretty difficult number even
though it's a catchy, fairly simple sounding tune. It's in an odd key for
sax and the 5/4 time is strange but has a steady rythm at least.
Another pretty durn difficult sax number is Boots Randolph's "Yakkety Sax".
It's hard enough just to hit the notes at that speed, much less punch out
all the gliss, tonguing and general "mouthpiece talk" he does. I can play
the main line of it at about 2/3 tempo but botch the jump from E to high F#
98% of the time. And that's just nailing the F# straight, not leaping up
to it in a continuous 1/100th of a second slide - actually a full 10th -
the way Boots does it.
Zippers stuff OTOH is a bit easier, although I'm still trying to totally
NAIL the alto sax lick from HELL. Probably my favorite sax lick in all of
Zipperdom is the baritone carrying the melody on "Twilight"... I just love
that song, especially when Kenny's solo notes twang right into the banjo.
Took me 2 months to learn that riff, it's quite a bit harder than it sounds.

I just got my copy of "Heretic Blues" by Kevin O'donnell's Quality six, and
all I can say is WOW!!!! It has Kevin O'donnell, Andrew Bird, Josh Hirsch,
Colin Bunn, Chris Green, and David Dieckmann. It sounds like Squirrel Nut
Zippers and Bowl Of Fire thrown into a mix with all the great masters. Along
with Violin, Drums, String Bass, and Guitar, they put in some nice sounding
Alto Sax and Trombone. The songs go from upbeat swings to really swinging
Blues. Andrew on vocals (so far...I am still listening to it right now.)
Here are the track listings:
1- Moten Swing.
2- Heretic Blues.
3- Girl From New York City.
4- Self Inflicted.
5- My Friend Eddie.
6- Could You Please Move Over?
7- Stack O' Lee.
8- Candy Dish Stomp.
9- Oh! Lady Be Good.
10- There, There, There.
11- Margaret.
12- Blues For Andrew.
13- Red Boa.
14- Mope.
Again, if you even sort of like Squirrel Nut Zippers, Bowl Of Fire...or
music in general, buy this CD. Everyone has solo's...this CD is one of the
best I have ever heard. It comes out around May 25th I think, but you can
get it now through Jazz Record Mart. Go to www.delmark.com and you can find
out from there.

Subject: Squirrel Brand Co.
Hey, Clay Walker (ClayWalk@aol.com) posted this to the list, and it
bounced, but don't worry, it won't happen again.
***********************************************************************
Greetings, I am new to this mailing list and have been reading everything for
a couple of weeks now. I have been updating my websites a little bit and one
thing that is burning a hole in my (internet) pocket is the work I did with
the candy company which was taken out of the CD-ROM at the last minute. In
the Perennial CD-ROM where it reads "Mammoth Records" it originally read
"Squirrel Brand Factory." I was asked to take it out due to the pending
lawsuit.
So, I am going to put these deleted graphics on my website as soon as I can
figure out whose basement I stored all my Zipper source material in. My
question to you zipper webmasters out there is: would you like a 1 minute
video of the Nut Zipper candy being made? It follows the candy from molten
blob to being packaged & shrinkwrapped. I have it on BetaSP right now but
can compress it down for the web. I'm on AOL and I only have a little space
left.
I don't want this stuff to not get seen because I spent 2 days in Cambridge
and would like for everyone interested to be able to see it.
Let me know if anyone's interested.

No reply from SBC (still!!!). This is seriously pissing me off. I
seriously think they are avoiding the question.
Clay: Post that sucker! That's cool as Hell (the song, of course). If you
have any other cool footage, you should put up a site with outtakes and
"behind the scenes" and stuff like that.

Sorry for the rapid-fire emails, but this is worth it.
Katharine Whalen's Jazz Squad will be performing Saturday May 22 at UNC's
Memorial Auditorium for the LIVE broadcast of NPR's "Whad' Ya Know?"
program. "Whad' Ya Know?" is based out of the Wisconsin Public Radio system
and is similar to "This American Life" in that it frequently tours the
states broadcasting from a different town each week.
If you'd like more info on the show you can check out their
website: www.notmuch.com
Thanks, and, again, I'm sorry for the interruption.
As you were.

Damn straight it should! The remix kicks ass! I got the MP3 from Matt
Fishken's Hotline server (see below). It is truly the bomb diggity. I
can mail you the MP3 if you don't want to bother with Hotline, but
there are also some cool concert bootlegs on there.
I guess this is a good time to (finally!) buy Christmas Caravan...

Subject: Kevin O'Donnell: Andrew Bird & Drummer's.
Andrew "Andrew" Bird has been playing the violin for way too long. Luckily,
he hasn't been playing jazz for quite as long, so he's still got some fire
in his britches. Known in Cook County and around the nation as "deamy,"
Andrew often leaves his oatmeal in the sink. No, that's not a euphemism. He
really does. He tries to stay on top of it, but he eats a lot of oatmeal.
Anyway, his fine singing is not to be missed, nor his fiddle playing... so
buy 'Heretic Blues'. Second of all - I want to say that I don't want to hear
one more weasel tell me that a drummer can't successfully lead a band.
Granted, 'Triumph' might have proven once and for all that the singing
drummer is a bad call, but that's different altogether...so buy 'Heretic
Blues'.

From: Jessica Brandt
Subject: SNZ contest CD
Hey, as you know, i'm doing an interview with Ken and hopefully Tom for the
June Shrubbery (still taking questions, yo). As it's been for the last few
issues, I'll be running a contest that ties in with the interview that has
a cool prize.
The cool prize will be this CD i've been working on for a while (there was
a wrench thrown into the works and it's half-done) which is a compilation
of all the best stuff from my 9 SNZ audio bootlegs, including some rare
stuff not on any releases. But more on that later as it gets done...
Anyhoo, I'm also going to include the song from "Live from 6A" (the song
escapes me for the moment...i found a new baby or lover's lane methinks)
and I also want to include the live song from "Garden Place" cuz it rocks
my socks off.
Question: The garden Place CD is a charity CD. I know someone mentioned on
here that they posted an MP3 or something of PART of the song due to the
fact that it's a charity album and anyone hearing the song should be giving
up their money to a good cause. I can't decide if I should put this song on
the CD.
of course, if i DO add the song, I will include in the liner notes how and
where to get the CD as well as the address to send donations for the Rape
Crisis center and all that jazz...but still, is that enough?
As it goes, I am only making 6 copies of the CD for now and taking
extra-special measures that it will NOT EVER be sold, but only traded (you
can win a copy off the Shrub and also there'll be a landing-only contest
for a copy as well, plus a copy for The Zippers, Me, and i forget who else
will get the others)...I'll encourage trading and CDr copies of it.
But should I include the Garden Place song? Should I put half of the song
on? should I leave it off?
What do you guys think?
Jess (studying for History. I swear.)

Ken has updated the page again (no, the frequent updates are *not*
ridiculous Ken!). This time the banner reads "Squirrel Nut Zippers". Either
the frustration has eleviated itself for a time, or some positive
developments have been made. Let's all hope for the latter!
11 days till Katharine's CD hits the stores.

I own the CD. The MP3 I made of it was done at 256 bits, which makes it
sound exactly like a CD (assuming you are playing it though a stereo).
But I'll have to argue that it doesn't sound live (on either the CD or
the MP3). There is no applause or anything; only some talking in the
background as well as the clicking of one of those black and white boards
they use to begin a scene of a movie, as if the band were doing the song
for a movie scene.

1) Who's Clay?
2) Can you (all of you, not just YOU you) *please* keep replies to
specific messages IN THAT THREAD?! It gets REALLY confusing. I'm
subscribed to about a hundred newsgroups, mailing lists and web forums
and I forget things.
