New Model Army Jazz standards Album
« on: February 04, 2014, 09:33:39 PM »
Rod Stewart did it.....Linda Ronstadt did it......Brian Ferry did it....Paul McCartney did it....Rongo Starr did it....So why not New Model Army?
Yeah, it's jazz standards time. Over and over NMA have proven themselves to be unafraid of taking chances,changing direction, and with the track record of other rock artists, it could be BIG.

Just imagine Justin singing "only a paper moon", "moon river","I left my heart in san francisco", or any others in the great american jazz songbook. He's got the vocal chops to pull it off.This is an opportunity not to be ignored. Help spread the word and lets get the momentum rolling!

Like Johnny, I hate Jazz. Its a group of people playing their own bits to different songs at the same time. I feel I must refuse this particular offer  ;D

Not keen on Jazz.

So many people rave about it but I just can't get into it and it does sound like everyone is playing a different song at different speeds.

Advertising is the rattling of the stick in the swill bucket.

I likes that idea -

With a bit of free jazz thrown in for the instrumental section.
NMA plays Sun Ra - now that's got a ring to it.

That's enough, NMA jazz versions... none of us want that.

We all want NMA to go in a Belgian Hardcore dance direction, don't we..?  I mean, none of those annoying things like lyrics or instruments or anything..?

(ducks for cover...)  ;)

cc me please when you find one!
I guess the jazz standard idea wasn't a really good one. BUT, what about a christmas album? They are always fun and every group eventually releases one.
 
Speaking of christmas, has anyone seen this recent releaase of the Sex Pistols 1977 christmas at Huddersfield special? It's quite good.
