Those songs 11 00:00:47,916 --> 00:00:51,436 Speaker 2: are indelible. We dive in the story behind those songs 12 00:00:51,436 --> 00:00:54,636 Speaker 2: and this remarkable album, including Steve Gadd's famous drum part 13 00:00:54,756 --> 00:00:57,556 Speaker 2: and how Stevie Wonder's intervisions may have been the catalyst 14 00:00:57,596 --> 00:01:01,836 Speaker 2: for Paul Simon's divorce and thus this album plus weeponder? 15 00:01:02,076 --> 00:01:03,756 Speaker 2: Is this the ultimate sad boy album? 16 00:01:04,516 --> 00:01:08,836 Speaker 1: Hey, Bob, do you like podcasts?

Nineteen seventy five and Justin this 51 00:03:48,316 --> 00:03:49,796 Speaker 4: was on a list that you gave us of like 52 00:03:49,836 --> 00:03:51,236 Speaker 4: things you might want to discuss and. 53 00:03:51,196 --> 00:03:53,396 Speaker 1: Before we get in, and we were nervous when Justin 54 00:03:53,476 --> 00:03:55,756 Speaker 1: Richmond gave us a list of albums that he wanted 55 00:03:55,756 --> 00:03:57,796 Speaker 1: to discuss. We didn't like to start shaking as we 56 00:03:57,836 --> 00:03:58,556 Speaker 1: looked through the list. 57 00:03:58,756 --> 00:04:01,396 Speaker 3: Believe me, no, not at all. But I'm just curious. 58 00:04:01,676 --> 00:04:03,036 Speaker 3: Why was this on your list? 59 00:04:03,196 --> 00:04:03,396 Speaker 1: Man? 60 00:04:03,476 --> 00:04:08,436 Speaker 3: Well, okay, this has a bit to do with my neurosis. 61 00:04:08,476 --> 00:04:11,436 Speaker 2: I just didn't I was scared, so I was scared, 62 00:04:11,636 --> 00:04:14,916 Speaker 2: so I kind of wanted to nerd out. I really 63 00:04:14,916 --> 00:04:17,196 Speaker 2: wanted to get deep into jazz with you guys. I 64 00:04:17,316 --> 00:04:18,956 Speaker 2: was kind of wanted, but then I got so I 65 00:04:18,996 --> 00:04:20,916 Speaker 2: feel like my first list air towards Zach because I 66 00:04:20,956 --> 00:04:21,996 Speaker 2: was like I want, you know, I want to go 67 00:04:22,076 --> 00:04:24,476 Speaker 2: I want to talk like mingos, like you know, a 68 00:04:24,516 --> 00:04:26,156 Speaker 2: classic jazz, you know record. 69 00:04:27,316 --> 00:04:28,796 Speaker 1: But then I was like, you know what, man, like, 70 00:04:29,236 --> 00:04:32,556 Speaker 1: it's not my land. Let me get out, you know. 71 00:04:32,796 --> 00:04:36,036 Speaker 3: Like Peter's face isn't it. It's just super intimidating. 72 00:04:36,236 --> 00:04:37,236 Speaker 1: I was like, I want to get chewed up. So 73 00:04:37,236 --> 00:04:37,996 Speaker 1: hold on, let me just right. 74 00:04:38,036 --> 00:04:41,316 Speaker 2: Let me recommend something that I feel like is that's 75 00:04:41,516 --> 00:04:45,436 Speaker 2: very much a classic album and incorporates jazz and is 76 00:04:45,516 --> 00:04:47,396 Speaker 2: and is in the you know, it takes from the 77 00:04:47,436 --> 00:04:51,196 Speaker 2: milliu but is firmly in the pop arena. 78 00:04:51,476 --> 00:04:52,116 Speaker 1: Yeah. 79 00:04:51,916 --> 00:04:55,036 Speaker 2: Yeah, And this was definitely you know, like I think 80 00:04:55,036 --> 00:04:57,676 Speaker 2: I sent some earth wind and Fire suggestions that was something, 81 00:04:57,676 --> 00:04:59,956 Speaker 2: but but this seemed to be like the most I 82 00:04:59,996 --> 00:05:01,316 Speaker 2: don't know, compelling in a way. 83 00:05:01,436 --> 00:05:03,916 Speaker 1: Yeah, and a little bit strategic. It sounds a little strate. 84 00:05:04,796 --> 00:05:06,516 Speaker 4: Now that's great because we want to talk to you 85 00:05:06,556 --> 00:05:08,436 Speaker 4: about something that you could really sink your teeth into. 86 00:05:08,556 --> 00:05:10,716 Speaker 4: And then I think we could. And you're right, this 87 00:05:10,836 --> 00:05:14,116 Speaker 4: album is a filled with jazz musicians. Yeah, and we'll 88 00:05:14,156 --> 00:05:15,876 Speaker 4: talk about that more when we get to it. 89 00:05:15,756 --> 00:05:17,516 Speaker 1: And we talk about you know, we've been using the 90 00:05:17,596 --> 00:05:20,116 Speaker 1: term jazz adjacent. You know, I like the you know, 91 00:05:20,596 --> 00:05:23,636 Speaker 1: jazz influence and stuff, and I'm it's gonna be really 92 00:05:23,636 --> 00:05:26,396 Speaker 1: interesting to get your guys take on how much of 93 00:05:26,436 --> 00:05:28,996 Speaker 1: that obviously jazz musicians on there. There's always the idea 94 00:05:28,996 --> 00:05:32,356 Speaker 1: of like jazz musicians on a pop record playing pop, 95 00:05:32,876 --> 00:05:35,436 Speaker 1: or like, how much are they invited in to bring jazz, 96 00:05:35,476 --> 00:05:38,076 Speaker 1: to bring groove? Like is it a harmonic kind of thing? 97 00:05:38,156 --> 00:05:41,396 Speaker 1: Is it a sensibility? Is an improvisation which this record 98 00:05:41,396 --> 00:05:43,956 Speaker 1: has some but not really a lot, a lot of truncated, 99 00:05:43,996 --> 00:05:46,676 Speaker 1: you know, but it's super interesting to me to hear 100 00:05:46,756 --> 00:05:49,036 Speaker 1: how people like whether or not gets to the point 101 00:05:49,036 --> 00:05:51,036 Speaker 1: where it's, well, there's one point that's gonna come up 102 00:05:51,076 --> 00:05:53,796 Speaker 1: later where it definitely gets very jazzy. It's like falls 103 00:05:53,796 --> 00:05:56,196 Speaker 1: off the rails jazzy all of a sudden too, yeah, 104 00:05:56,356 --> 00:05:58,196 Speaker 1: which I think is great. But other than that, you know, 105 00:05:58,316 --> 00:05:58,916 Speaker 1: I'm not sure. 106 00:05:59,516 --> 00:06:03,116 Speaker 4: Well, let's get a little backstory here on what was 107 00:06:03,156 --> 00:06:06,196 Speaker 4: going on before this album was made. In nineteen seventy five, So, 108 00:06:06,196 --> 00:06:08,276 Speaker 4: Paul Seinen grew up in a musical home in Queens, 109 00:06:08,316 --> 00:06:11,516 Speaker 4: New York. His dad, Lou, played bass professionally for radio stations, 110 00:06:11,516 --> 00:06:15,156 Speaker 4: and he encouraged his son to appreciate music and study piano, 111 00:06:15,516 --> 00:06:17,956 Speaker 4: but Paul didn't really take to it, that is until 112 00:06:17,956 --> 00:06:20,436 Speaker 4: he heard dou wop and Rhythm and Blues on the radio. 113 00:06:20,916 --> 00:06:23,876 Speaker 4: He was just a kid, maybe nine or ten, and 114 00:06:23,916 --> 00:06:26,436 Speaker 4: he was completely changed by what he heard. He would 115 00:06:26,476 --> 00:06:30,236 Speaker 4: obsessively listen to the radio after school, listening to songs 116 00:06:30,596 --> 00:06:32,836 Speaker 4: like Hearts of Stone by. 117 00:06:32,756 --> 00:06:45,436 Speaker 5: The Jewelers, Made of Stone, Will Alone, Time. 118 00:06:46,876 --> 00:06:57,396 Speaker 4: You Can Pass, or Shaboom by the Crew Cuts, Hell That, 119 00:06:57,956 --> 00:07:08,276 Speaker 4: or good Night Sweetheart by the Spaniels. He met Art 120 00:07:08,276 --> 00:07:11,156 Speaker 4: Garfunkle in school and the two started singing together, recording 121 00:07:11,196 --> 00:07:13,596 Speaker 4: their voices on a wire recorder and playing it back 122 00:07:13,636 --> 00:07:15,436 Speaker 4: to hear how their voices intersected. 123 00:07:15,516 --> 00:07:17,956 Speaker 1: You see a wire recorder, we got talking. I'm not 124 00:07:17,956 --> 00:07:18,476 Speaker 1: to google that. 125 00:07:20,076 --> 00:07:22,676 Speaker 4: Then they started singing together at school talent shows and 126 00:07:22,716 --> 00:07:25,556 Speaker 4: even writing songs together. They both fell in love with 127 00:07:25,596 --> 00:07:27,436 Speaker 4: the Everly Brothers with songs like. 128 00:07:27,516 --> 00:07:28,236 Speaker 3: Bye Bye Love. 129 00:07:28,796 --> 00:07:31,396 Speaker 4: And then one day after school they walked into a 130 00:07:31,436 --> 00:07:34,676 Speaker 4: recording studio in Manhattan and paid ten dollars to record 131 00:07:35,116 --> 00:07:40,116 Speaker 4: this song, Joe. 132 00:07:42,476 --> 00:07:42,596 Speaker 5: Jo. 133 00:07:43,796 --> 00:07:48,356 Speaker 4: Of course, everybody knows that Simon and garvocal, so this 134 00:07:48,556 --> 00:07:51,636 Speaker 4: was recorded under the name Tom and Jerry, not Simon. 135 00:07:51,316 --> 00:07:53,116 Speaker 3: And Garfunkle, which is a very funny name. 136 00:07:53,236 --> 00:07:55,196 Speaker 4: It just so happened that Sid Prosen, who owned a 137 00:07:55,236 --> 00:07:58,036 Speaker 4: small record label, was in the room. He heard them 138 00:07:58,076 --> 00:08:00,556 Speaker 4: sing and offered them a contract to release Hey school 139 00:08:00,596 --> 00:08:01,596 Speaker 4: Girl on his label. 140 00:08:01,716 --> 00:08:04,436 Speaker 1: Did you say Sid Prosen? He didn't have to say 141 00:08:04,476 --> 00:08:07,116 Speaker 1: Sid Prosen owned a small record label. That was that 142 00:08:07,236 --> 00:08:08,436 Speaker 1: was implicit in the name. 143 00:08:09,236 --> 00:08:13,796 Speaker 4: They quickly found their sound, became famous, and eventually broke up. 144 00:08:14,436 --> 00:08:17,676 Speaker 4: But for Shadowy it was another breakup that would create 145 00:08:17,716 --> 00:08:20,796 Speaker 4: the conditions for one of his best albums, Still crazy 146 00:08:20,836 --> 00:08:23,156 Speaker 4: after all these years, so. 147 00:08:24,076 --> 00:08:24,956 Speaker 3: We thank you very much. 148 00:08:25,236 --> 00:08:28,516 Speaker 4: We don't often think about Simon and Garfunkel as like 149 00:08:28,516 --> 00:08:30,716 Speaker 4: a doo wop group, but that is certainly their origins, 150 00:08:30,756 --> 00:08:32,556 Speaker 4: and you can hear that in the Hey school Girl. 151 00:08:33,476 --> 00:08:36,116 Speaker 4: But really interesting origin story from Paul. I knew his 152 00:08:36,196 --> 00:08:39,716 Speaker 4: dad was a musician, but I'm curious, Peter, like your 153 00:08:39,836 --> 00:08:41,356 Speaker 4: father also a professional musician. 154 00:08:41,436 --> 00:08:43,276 Speaker 3: Yeah, not in the same context. 155 00:08:42,836 --> 00:08:46,396 Speaker 4: That you are, but I think that musical there's so 156 00:08:46,516 --> 00:08:52,196 Speaker 4: many astounding musicians, yourself included, who come from like a 157 00:08:52,276 --> 00:08:55,996 Speaker 4: dad who's like a workaday musician, right right, Yeah, And I. 158 00:08:55,956 --> 00:08:59,156 Speaker 1: Wonder i'd love. I think that's an interesting part. But 159 00:08:59,236 --> 00:09:02,676 Speaker 1: I think a music lover parent, you know, like that's 160 00:09:02,756 --> 00:09:04,956 Speaker 1: the trend I hear with a lot. I don't know you, oh, 161 00:09:05,036 --> 00:09:08,716 Speaker 1: I know for you, Adam, your parents, your dad had 162 00:09:08,756 --> 00:09:11,036 Speaker 1: great some music and will play stuff. And I mean 163 00:09:11,036 --> 00:09:14,756 Speaker 1: it's just in you, justin just like I think having parents, 164 00:09:14,716 --> 00:09:17,636 Speaker 1: because both my parents are actually musicians, is an interesting angle. 165 00:09:17,676 --> 00:09:19,756 Speaker 1: But it's almost more like is music in the home, 166 00:09:20,116 --> 00:09:22,196 Speaker 1: Like how is it present? Like not that you're at 167 00:09:22,196 --> 00:09:24,476 Speaker 1: the altar of it, but like culturally, is it a 168 00:09:24,476 --> 00:09:27,836 Speaker 1: big part of you know, your upbringing?

But for me, it was my I think 172 00:09:33,916 --> 00:09:36,756 Speaker 2: my mom's mom, my grandma, who was really she's from 173 00:09:36,756 --> 00:09:40,436 Speaker 2: Detroit and whatever reason just loved. She would always just 174 00:09:40,436 --> 00:09:43,116 Speaker 2: tell me, like teach me life lessons through like you know, 175 00:09:43,156 --> 00:09:44,956 Speaker 2: the stories of some celebrities you heard, like I always 176 00:09:45,036 --> 00:09:46,236 Speaker 2: knew not to do uh. 177 00:09:46,356 --> 00:09:48,636 Speaker 1: I learned not to take drugs because Judy Garland tell you. 178 00:09:48,676 --> 00:09:50,396 Speaker 4: I was watching the Wizard of Oz and my granda 179 00:09:50,396 --> 00:09:55,076 Speaker 4: told me Judy Garlands and I'm like don't take pills, okay, 180 00:09:55,676 --> 00:09:57,436 Speaker 4: But then she would tell me things like don't sign 181 00:09:57,476 --> 00:09:57,996 Speaker 4: with MGM. 182 00:09:58,116 --> 00:10:01,916 Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, you know, don't don't you know? She would 183 00:10:01,916 --> 00:10:03,276 Speaker 2: tell me about how Nat King Cole used to like 184 00:10:03,276 --> 00:10:04,956 Speaker 2: to smoke because it would keep his voice like like 185 00:10:05,036 --> 00:10:06,316 Speaker 2: you know, like he liked the way he made his 186 00:10:06,396 --> 00:10:08,436 Speaker 2: voice sound, but. 187 00:10:07,716 --> 00:10:10,356 Speaker 1: That would lung cancer, you know. So then that was 188 00:10:10,396 --> 00:10:10,676 Speaker 1: the flip. 189 00:10:11,036 --> 00:10:13,276 Speaker 2: Okay, so don't smoke or you know she made me 190 00:10:13,316 --> 00:10:15,036 Speaker 2: do uh, she made me join the swim team because 191 00:10:15,036 --> 00:10:18,396 Speaker 2: Frank Sinatra swam for like greater like lung. So my 192 00:10:18,396 --> 00:10:20,916 Speaker 2: grandmas liked singers and would always like make me listen 193 00:10:20,916 --> 00:10:24,516 Speaker 2: to things. And you tell me singers were trash. 194 00:10:24,676 --> 00:10:27,676 Speaker 1: Yeah, you can learn everything about life, like yeah, don't 195 00:10:27,916 --> 00:10:33,196 Speaker 1: eat a lot of that stuff. Yeah, so I think 196 00:10:33,196 --> 00:10:33,836 Speaker 1: it was my grandma. 197 00:10:33,956 --> 00:10:36,596 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, And I hated vocalists growing up, but I've 198 00:10:36,676 --> 00:10:38,716 Speaker 2: come back around to me now it's all I love it. 199 00:10:39,156 --> 00:10:41,516 Speaker 1: Vocals, love a good love a good singer. Yeah. Yeah, 200 00:10:42,316 --> 00:10:44,996 Speaker 1: well I think too, like like you hear the music 201 00:10:45,076 --> 00:10:46,836 Speaker 1: that do? I mean obviously none of us, even me 202 00:10:47,076 --> 00:10:49,396 Speaker 1: being the elder statesman here, came up listening to that 203 00:10:49,516 --> 00:10:52,396 Speaker 1: douop style. But I remember my aunt and my uncle 204 00:10:52,476 --> 00:10:54,916 Speaker 1: and my parents too, like they're more like classical musicians, 205 00:10:55,116 --> 00:10:58,876 Speaker 1: a little snobby. But you know, I think it's hard 206 00:10:58,916 --> 00:11:01,596 Speaker 1: for us probably to understand the impact of that's not 207 00:11:01,716 --> 00:11:05,876 Speaker 1: I remember my aunt Carol talking about Fats Domino, you know, 208 00:11:06,436 --> 00:11:08,076 Speaker 1: and like one of his hits would come on the 209 00:11:08,196 --> 00:11:10,156 Speaker 1: radio and she was like, that's when I fell in 210 00:11:10,236 --> 00:11:12,756 Speaker 1: love with your uncle, and like just like that sound. 211 00:11:12,876 --> 00:11:15,156 Speaker 1: And so I you know, hearing I've never realized that 212 00:11:15,276 --> 00:11:18,356 Speaker 1: Paul Simon and Gar but it totally makes sense. Came 213 00:11:18,396 --> 00:11:20,676 Speaker 1: out of that. But like it's got to inform everything 214 00:11:20,756 --> 00:11:21,196 Speaker 1: that they did. 215 00:11:21,356 --> 00:11:25,956 Speaker 4: You can hear that, like the constant harmonies and everything 216 00:11:25,996 --> 00:11:28,956 Speaker 4: that they're doing is Simon and Garfunkle A long way 217 00:11:28,956 --> 00:11:30,516 Speaker 4: away from Tom and Jerry Hayes, Skip. 218 00:11:30,476 --> 00:11:33,196 Speaker 1: School Girl, a little elevated. Yeah. 219 00:11:43,636 --> 00:11:49,116 Speaker 4: So after Simon and Garfuncle are defunct, Paul makes his 220 00:11:49,236 --> 00:11:52,996 Speaker 4: first studio album, self titled Paul Simon Album with some 221 00:11:53,156 --> 00:11:53,756 Speaker 4: good success. 222 00:11:55,796 --> 00:11:58,036 Speaker 3: I love this album, incredible album. 223 00:11:58,596 --> 00:12:01,556 Speaker 1: This is the one to cover with He's got the 224 00:12:01,716 --> 00:12:04,396 Speaker 1: hood up for a hood. Yeah, this is a ten 225 00:12:04,436 --> 00:12:11,116 Speaker 1: out of ten album cover that's being Julio domb. 226 00:12:12,756 --> 00:12:15,436 Speaker 4: Nineteen seventy two and nineteen seventy three, Paul releases There 227 00:12:15,476 --> 00:12:17,636 Speaker 4: Goes Ryman Simon, also a good album, not as good 228 00:12:17,676 --> 00:12:19,676 Speaker 4: as the self titled or as good as Still Crazy 229 00:12:19,716 --> 00:12:23,436 Speaker 4: in my opinion, but some good stuff, including this track 230 00:12:23,476 --> 00:12:26,916 Speaker 4: Code of Crew mixed a song, but as we're already 231 00:12:26,956 --> 00:12:31,076 Speaker 4: hearing here and still Ryman the sound quality yea for 232 00:12:31,196 --> 00:12:33,916 Speaker 4: nineteen seventy three, that's some high level. 233 00:12:34,076 --> 00:12:40,556 Speaker 1: Yeah, the same producer as this Phil Romone. Yeah, I 234 00:12:40,636 --> 00:12:43,396 Speaker 1: was just wondering if it sounds like his kind of 235 00:12:44,236 --> 00:12:47,276 Speaker 1: but I mean Simon apparently was very I think anytime, 236 00:12:47,316 --> 00:12:49,516 Speaker 1: like you talk about the engineers and the production and 237 00:12:49,596 --> 00:12:51,836 Speaker 1: of course Still Crazy, I think it was Phil Vermont 238 00:12:51,876 --> 00:12:54,316 Speaker 1: and Paul Seimer and producer together. But I think, like 239 00:12:54,636 --> 00:12:58,396 Speaker 1: you explore with Michael Jackson, Marvin Gay Stevie, like they 240 00:12:58,556 --> 00:13:01,516 Speaker 1: when you get that pristine sound, whatever the direction is, 241 00:13:01,676 --> 00:13:05,076 Speaker 1: like the artist has almost always had. I mean occasionally 242 00:13:05,116 --> 00:13:07,196 Speaker 1: you'll hear about with ours like I do whatever, yeah, 243 00:13:07,236 --> 00:13:09,036 Speaker 1: and then they create this match, but they are usually 244 00:13:09,476 --> 00:13:12,516 Speaker 1: very meticulous with how they want not only their voice, 245 00:13:12,556 --> 00:13:14,396 Speaker 1: but the whole you know, the whole thing. 246 00:13:15,076 --> 00:13:19,236 Speaker 4: After There Goes Ryman Simon by nineteen seventy four, Paul 247 00:13:19,236 --> 00:13:21,476 Speaker 4: and his wife Peggy, had a son together, Harper, who 248 00:13:21,516 --> 00:13:24,916 Speaker 4: Paul adored. His musical career had been a success so far, 249 00:13:25,116 --> 00:13:28,236 Speaker 4: but he was still so sad and didn't know why 250 00:13:28,436 --> 00:13:30,916 Speaker 4: he was isolating himself from his family, spending most nights 251 00:13:30,916 --> 00:13:33,436 Speaker 4: away from the house. One night, he came home and 252 00:13:33,516 --> 00:13:36,196 Speaker 4: hopped in the shower to wash off the sadness. He 253 00:13:36,356 --> 00:13:39,436 Speaker 4: burst into tears, and this phrase came to mind, still 254 00:13:39,516 --> 00:13:43,436 Speaker 4: crazy after all these years. Soon after a productive shower, 255 00:13:43,636 --> 00:13:45,836 Speaker 4: I say, I wish that's. 256 00:13:45,676 --> 00:13:46,236 Speaker 1: A dark moment. 257 00:13:46,476 --> 00:13:49,436 Speaker 3: I've never heard out of it. But that's Paul Simon 258 00:13:49,516 --> 00:13:49,716 Speaker 3: for you. 259 00:13:50,156 --> 00:13:52,516 Speaker 4: Soon after that, his solo album, There Goes Rymond Simon 260 00:13:52,636 --> 00:13:54,916 Speaker 4: was nominated for a Grammy for Album of the Year. 261 00:13:55,396 --> 00:13:58,716 Speaker 4: He was up against Stevie Wonders Inner Visions, Ever Heard 262 00:13:58,716 --> 00:14:05,076 Speaker 4: of It? Inner Visions won the Grammy that year. This 263 00:14:05,196 --> 00:14:12,476 Speaker 4: is Golden Lady from Innervisions. Imagine hearing this. It'd being 264 00:14:12,516 --> 00:14:13,636 Speaker 4: a working artists. 265 00:14:14,196 --> 00:14:15,756 Speaker 3: We talked about this, but talking you can go to 266 00:14:15,836 --> 00:14:16,956 Speaker 3: the shower come up with nothing. 267 00:14:17,956 --> 00:14:20,716 Speaker 4: If you're listening to Stevie here in this seventies run 268 00:14:20,756 --> 00:14:22,756 Speaker 4: that he's on, you gotta be like, well, I guess 269 00:14:22,796 --> 00:14:25,196 Speaker 4: it's done. I guess music is over hanging it up. Yeah, 270 00:14:25,516 --> 00:14:27,356 Speaker 4: we should all pack it in. And that's kind of 271 00:14:27,396 --> 00:14:31,796 Speaker 4: what Paul did. One day, he was pouring over inter 272 00:14:31,916 --> 00:14:34,636 Speaker 4: visions when his wife reminded him it was time to leave. 273 00:14:34,876 --> 00:14:38,396 Speaker 4: Paul didn't move. He kept listening. She reminded him again. 274 00:14:39,076 --> 00:14:42,556 Speaker 4: Now he was feeling angry. She reminded him of my household. 275 00:14:42,596 --> 00:14:46,396 Speaker 4: By the way, I'm amazing, I'm still married. 276 00:14:46,956 --> 00:14:49,316 Speaker 1: He walked out the door and went to a hotel. 277 00:14:49,516 --> 00:14:52,956 Speaker 1: That was the end of his marriage. From the ins, 278 00:14:53,396 --> 00:14:56,356 Speaker 1: I didn't get a prod. Give some executive decision making 279 00:14:56,436 --> 00:14:59,036 Speaker 1: like boh Man.

I love this this Roads part. 344 00:19:39,316 --> 00:19:41,876 Speaker 4: It's just a beautiful example of the very simple church 345 00:19:41,956 --> 00:19:45,316 Speaker 4: chords just played flawlessly. The voice leading is unbelievable. Yeah, 346 00:19:45,356 --> 00:19:48,636 Speaker 4: obviously the sound of a Roads in nineteen, but. 347 00:19:48,716 --> 00:19:50,916 Speaker 1: Normally they'd be a little bit more exploite, like a 348 00:19:50,956 --> 00:19:53,316 Speaker 1: little bit of bluesy, like I feel like they were. 349 00:19:53,516 --> 00:19:56,916 Speaker 1: I think Simon told them or somebody. I don't know 350 00:19:56,956 --> 00:19:58,876 Speaker 1: if that was Phil Ramon was involved black like, oh, 351 00:19:59,076 --> 00:20:02,196 Speaker 1: you know, you know which is. I mean, that's probably 352 00:20:02,196 --> 00:20:03,996 Speaker 1: appropriate for what it is, but for me, I kind 353 00:20:03,996 --> 00:20:06,036 Speaker 1: of want to hear a little bit, just a little 354 00:20:06,036 --> 00:20:07,276 Speaker 1: bit of grid or something here. 355 00:20:07,356 --> 00:20:11,036 Speaker 2: So you think a little more grit would it's a 356 00:20:11,156 --> 00:20:12,476 Speaker 2: nine point five, a little more grit? 357 00:20:12,596 --> 00:20:14,996 Speaker 1: Make that a ten out of ten? Yeah, Like what 358 00:20:15,076 --> 00:20:19,596 Speaker 1: if Donnie Hathaway was playing that role? Oh yeah, eleven? 359 00:20:20,076 --> 00:20:23,156 Speaker 4: Right, But I kind of agree with you. It feels like, 360 00:20:23,556 --> 00:20:26,196 Speaker 4: I mean, for Barry Beckett, it's pulled back away. But 361 00:20:26,276 --> 00:20:28,396 Speaker 4: do you think for Michael Record's pulled back right, do 362 00:20:28,476 --> 00:20:28,916 Speaker 4: you think. 363 00:20:28,996 --> 00:20:30,916 Speaker 1: Justin like what you were talking about, like the phrasing 364 00:20:30,956 --> 00:20:32,956 Speaker 1: that Paul Simon is singing with, that that would have 365 00:20:33,436 --> 00:20:34,836 Speaker 1: more grit, would have taken away from that. 366 00:20:34,956 --> 00:20:38,116 Speaker 2: I don't know, if I don't know, If yes, I 367 00:20:38,156 --> 00:20:40,236 Speaker 2: think I think it terms a way Paul approaches songs 368 00:20:40,276 --> 00:20:43,356 Speaker 2: and sings. I think that sort of more pulled back, 369 00:20:43,796 --> 00:20:46,796 Speaker 2: restrained playing is probably more like if Donnie singing. 370 00:20:46,996 --> 00:20:50,196 Speaker 1: And playing right, okay, you know, yeah, it's gonna go. 371 00:20:50,276 --> 00:20:52,076 Speaker 1: Not that Paul's not a great vocalist, but it's just 372 00:20:52,156 --> 00:20:53,916 Speaker 1: you know, he does though it's not what he does. 373 00:20:54,356 --> 00:20:57,596 Speaker 4: It would be weird if if Paul was like sanging yeah, yeah, yeah, 374 00:20:58,036 --> 00:21:00,396 Speaker 4: it would feel a little weird, that sort of understated, 375 00:21:01,356 --> 00:21:04,636 Speaker 4: putting real focus on the lyrics and the turn of 376 00:21:04,716 --> 00:21:07,956 Speaker 4: the phrase yeah in a very gentle way. That's the 377 00:21:07,996 --> 00:21:10,276 Speaker 4: Paul Simon I think about ahead when I think about 378 00:21:10,436 --> 00:21:11,836 Speaker 4: his talent as a vocalist. 379 00:21:11,876 --> 00:21:12,636 Speaker 3: We can hear that here. 380 00:21:16,956 --> 00:21:18,436 Speaker 11: On the street last night. 381 00:21:19,876 --> 00:21:22,236 Speaker 12: She seems so glad to see me. 382 00:21:23,036 --> 00:21:23,956 Speaker 11: I'll just smile. 383 00:21:26,596 --> 00:21:29,036 Speaker 1: Then we talked about some old. 384 00:21:28,996 --> 00:21:35,116 Speaker 9: Time samon drink or sell some views still crazy after 385 00:21:35,396 --> 00:21:37,236 Speaker 9: all theies? 386 00:21:38,596 --> 00:21:42,156 Speaker 1: What was still crazy?

Love the 511 00:29:39,796 --> 00:29:40,996 Speaker 1: sound of the piano. What do you think about that 512 00:29:41,036 --> 00:29:43,316 Speaker 1: piano sound at the beginning? That's one of the most 513 00:29:43,516 --> 00:29:46,116 Speaker 1: so that unison. Can you just play the very first 514 00:29:46,196 --> 00:29:47,356 Speaker 1: note there? Can nerd out? 515 00:29:48,836 --> 00:29:49,996 Speaker 3: It's not exactly in tune. 516 00:29:50,036 --> 00:29:52,116 Speaker 1: It's like I was trying to see like the unisons 517 00:29:52,156 --> 00:29:55,916 Speaker 1: are almost they're like on the edge of oh, and 518 00:29:55,956 --> 00:29:59,676 Speaker 1: then that delayed from with the guitar, but so just 519 00:29:59,756 --> 00:30:01,276 Speaker 1: to nerd out real quick. But it's sort of an 520 00:30:01,316 --> 00:30:04,036 Speaker 1: interest like a piano and down in that range would 521 00:30:04,076 --> 00:30:06,996 Speaker 1: be two notes. There's actually two strings and the hammer 522 00:30:07,076 --> 00:30:08,836 Speaker 1: is hitting it, and so like if one of the 523 00:30:08,836 --> 00:30:10,436 Speaker 1: strings this is a little bit out of the tune, 524 00:30:10,436 --> 00:30:13,276 Speaker 1: you get this kind of weird you know, it sounds 525 00:30:13,276 --> 00:30:14,196 Speaker 1: out of tune on its own. 526 00:30:14,276 --> 00:30:15,516 Speaker 3: If it gets really out of tune, it sounds like 527 00:30:15,516 --> 00:30:16,356 Speaker 3: a honky tonk piano. 528 00:30:16,476 --> 00:30:18,796 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's like a whole pan. But this one 529 00:30:18,916 --> 00:30:20,756 Speaker 1: is like just on. I don't think it's actually out 530 00:30:20,756 --> 00:30:22,476 Speaker 1: because you don't hear the waves going, but it's like 531 00:30:22,716 --> 00:30:24,916 Speaker 1: very close, so it gives and I mean his touch 532 00:30:24,996 --> 00:30:26,836 Speaker 1: is It's such a simple thing, and you see it 533 00:30:26,916 --> 00:30:29,316 Speaker 1: on these people like greatest piano intros of all times. 534 00:30:29,356 --> 00:30:30,956 Speaker 1: Like it's an easy one to learn, but maybe not 535 00:30:31,076 --> 00:30:32,276 Speaker 1: to play it like that, you know. 536 00:30:32,476 --> 00:30:35,916 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a beautiful record. Yeah, it is a beautiful record. 537 00:30:37,036 --> 00:30:39,556 Speaker 2: And the horn I don't know, man, like I don't. 538 00:30:39,676 --> 00:30:41,516 Speaker 4: They must have really hated each other too, because to 539 00:30:41,596 --> 00:30:43,676 Speaker 4: make that record to be like, okay, we're going to 540 00:30:43,716 --> 00:30:44,436 Speaker 4: make a record together. 541 00:30:44,516 --> 00:30:48,596 Speaker 1: You make that record, say screw it now, I can't. 542 00:30:50,036 --> 00:30:52,276 Speaker 1: How do you make that and decide and you mix it? 543 00:30:52,396 --> 00:30:55,116 Speaker 2: You the whole thing Nowhere in the process you think 544 00:30:55,716 --> 00:30:56,516 Speaker 2: let's put it aside. 545 00:30:56,756 --> 00:30:58,796 Speaker 1: Can you imagine ever in your life making Bridge over 546 00:30:58,876 --> 00:31:00,276 Speaker 1: Troubled Water and be like, I never want to see 547 00:31:00,316 --> 00:31:02,796 Speaker 1: this person ever again. It wasn't this like the third 548 00:31:02,836 --> 00:31:09,636 Speaker 1: time they were coming back together? Yeah, but they sound 549 00:31:09,796 --> 00:31:12,036 Speaker 1: so good on that and it did. Wasn't this released 550 00:31:12,236 --> 00:31:16,076 Speaker 1: on also on our Garfunk solo records? Yeah? 551 00:31:16,276 --> 00:31:19,156 Speaker 3: Like yeah, and I think the same position to like 552 00:31:19,236 --> 00:31:19,796 Speaker 3: track too. 553 00:31:19,716 --> 00:31:22,116 Speaker 1: Like they just went like so they obviously both approved 554 00:31:22,156 --> 00:31:24,716 Speaker 1: of the of the recording. It's insanely good. 555 00:31:24,956 --> 00:31:30,676 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, classic classic case of two people whose personalities 556 00:31:30,756 --> 00:31:34,196 Speaker 4: can't handle each other. Yeah, they end up making some 557 00:31:34,276 --> 00:31:38,556 Speaker 4: of the greatest art maybe because of even not even 558 00:31:38,596 --> 00:31:40,436 Speaker 4: despite of but a couple of guys. 559 00:31:41,956 --> 00:31:48,076 Speaker 1: Don't these cameras? It's icy and yeah this whole time 560 00:31:49,996 --> 00:31:52,596 Speaker 1: that was cool And I think too, Like one thing 561 00:31:52,756 --> 00:31:56,036 Speaker 1: that's always interesting to me is like, how you know, 562 00:31:56,236 --> 00:31:57,996 Speaker 1: when I was coming up learning music, it's like, oh, 563 00:31:58,036 --> 00:31:59,716 Speaker 1: you're going to get into this, and they do some 564 00:31:59,836 --> 00:32:02,556 Speaker 1: like weird diminished chords on like that's where the thing is. 565 00:32:02,716 --> 00:32:04,676 Speaker 1: But the reality is like how do these tunes start? 566 00:32:05,356 --> 00:32:07,356 Speaker 1: And like the ending is different because there's so many 567 00:32:07,396 --> 00:32:09,596 Speaker 1: fadeouts on And this was the age of like the 568 00:32:09,636 --> 00:32:11,276 Speaker 1: beginning of the fade outs, you know, which is my 569 00:32:11,316 --> 00:32:13,556 Speaker 1: own little quible bit, but like how these first two 570 00:32:13,636 --> 00:32:15,756 Speaker 1: tracks start with like that road. 571 00:32:15,756 --> 00:32:20,116 Speaker 3: Sound at the beginning, you with fade outs. 572 00:32:20,316 --> 00:32:21,956 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not I'm not a fan of it. I'm like, 573 00:32:22,076 --> 00:32:25,756 Speaker 1: end the thing, what's ended? Yeah, that's your Yeah, it's 574 00:32:25,836 --> 00:32:28,476 Speaker 1: like for radio, it's great, but it's also like when 575 00:32:28,516 --> 00:32:29,876 Speaker 1: we were here. I mean, this was a little before 576 00:32:29,916 --> 00:32:31,276 Speaker 1: my time when I was here and on the radio, 577 00:32:31,756 --> 00:32:34,516 Speaker 1: but it's like the DJ has had so much control 578 00:32:34,596 --> 00:32:36,556 Speaker 1: over when the thing was gonna. Like that's when I 579 00:32:36,596 --> 00:32:38,076 Speaker 1: came up in the era of like you didn't know 580 00:32:38,116 --> 00:32:40,116 Speaker 1: what it was gonna.

So quibble bits I have, uh, 1476 01:17:17,356 --> 01:17:20,476 Speaker 1: And if you're feel free to pause this or fast 1477 01:17:20,556 --> 01:17:23,076 Speaker 1: forward this for some folks, if you don't want to 1478 01:17:23,116 --> 01:17:27,836 Speaker 1: hear this, why would you know, because no, are some 1479 01:17:27,996 --> 01:17:31,116 Speaker 1: of the grooves on this record are sanitized to me 1480 01:17:31,316 --> 01:17:34,396 Speaker 1: a little bit, like the whole I mean, there's nothing 1481 01:17:34,436 --> 01:17:35,516 Speaker 1: that's not grooving. 1482 01:17:35,756 --> 01:17:38,196 Speaker 3: So you're saying that, you're saying that Steve Gadd isn't grooving. 1483 01:17:38,356 --> 01:17:40,116 Speaker 1: No what I'm saying. Of course he's grew, but I 1484 01:17:40,156 --> 01:17:42,716 Speaker 1: think he's been And I wouldn't even say I have 1485 01:17:42,836 --> 01:17:44,636 Speaker 1: no knowledge. It's not like, oh I heard they told 1486 01:17:44,716 --> 01:17:46,596 Speaker 1: him don't play this or don't dig in. I think 1487 01:17:46,636 --> 01:17:49,436 Speaker 1: it's just he appropriately played the situation and listening to 1488 01:17:49,476 --> 01:17:51,476 Speaker 1: it with you guys and getting your feedback. I'm kind 1489 01:17:51,516 --> 01:17:53,596 Speaker 1: of turned around on this a little bit because I 1490 01:17:53,636 --> 01:17:56,156 Speaker 1: think situation, especially as you go through and listen to 1491 01:17:56,276 --> 01:17:58,756 Speaker 1: this record, everything's appropriate. Like we get into this thing 1492 01:17:58,756 --> 01:18:00,916 Speaker 1: where we're really analyzing and I'm thinking, like, oh, I 1493 01:18:00,996 --> 01:18:02,356 Speaker 1: know what Steve Gadd can do. I know what the 1494 01:18:02,436 --> 01:18:05,076 Speaker 1: muscle shows guys can do. But it's like you don't 1495 01:18:05,116 --> 01:18:06,236 Speaker 1: have to bring any of that to it. If you 1496 01:18:06,356 --> 01:18:08,436 Speaker 1: just take it for what it is, it totally you 1497 01:18:08,516 --> 01:18:10,876 Speaker 1: know has on its way. But it's just like like 1498 01:18:10,956 --> 01:18:13,316 Speaker 1: Steve Gack can really hit a New Orleans groove like 1499 01:18:13,596 --> 01:18:14,996 Speaker 1: two X that no problem. 1500 01:18:15,156 --> 01:18:16,956 Speaker 2: So you know you're not wrong, man, because you know 1501 01:18:17,036 --> 01:18:22,596 Speaker 2: and Paul, Like, we listened to Cecilia Cecilia to like 1502 01:18:22,716 --> 01:18:24,636 Speaker 2: and then the kind of made rhythm of the Saints, 1503 01:18:24,716 --> 01:18:27,996 Speaker 2: and then you listen to the demo of Gone at Last, 1504 01:18:28,196 --> 01:18:31,316 Speaker 2: yeah versus not. You know, Richard T's play is great 1505 01:18:31,356 --> 01:18:32,996 Speaker 2: and whatever, but you listen to the demo Gone out 1506 01:18:33,036 --> 01:18:34,916 Speaker 2: Last compared to the what you Know, You're like. 1507 01:18:35,596 --> 01:18:39,076 Speaker 1: Exactly Now, that's probably the most sanitized track on him, 1508 01:18:40,156 --> 01:18:41,916 Speaker 1: which is weird because like Richard T, I think is 1509 01:18:41,956 --> 01:18:46,196 Speaker 1: one of the greatest like blues gospel anything pianist. 1510 01:18:45,956 --> 01:18:47,236 Speaker 3: That sounds like it's from a musical. 1511 01:18:47,916 --> 01:18:50,756 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like the wing Damn, I'm not gonna be 1512 01:18:50,756 --> 01:18:54,236 Speaker 1: do here that And there's nothing wrong with the way 1513 01:18:54,276 --> 01:18:56,516 Speaker 1: that this is like perfect gospel musical. 1514 01:18:56,676 --> 01:18:59,436 Speaker 2: But you know what someone said, I don't know who 1515 01:18:59,716 --> 01:19:02,996 Speaker 2: phil someone said, white people have to listen to this, 1516 01:19:03,196 --> 01:19:05,316 Speaker 2: you know, Oh I'm sure, sorry, this. 1517 01:19:07,636 --> 01:19:10,076 Speaker 1: Is totally there for that.

It's more about the expression of 1563 01:21:06,676 --> 01:21:10,236 Speaker 4: Paul's lyrics are telling the story glory of and I 1564 01:21:10,356 --> 01:21:13,476 Speaker 4: get that. And I think it's a balance because you 1565 01:21:13,516 --> 01:21:15,716 Speaker 4: could lose that pretty easily if it goes out of. 1566 01:21:15,716 --> 01:21:17,476 Speaker 2: Whack, you know what I mean, maybe it's maybe Paul 1567 01:21:17,596 --> 01:21:19,476 Speaker 2: felt that stops beIN a divorce album. 1568 01:21:19,636 --> 01:21:21,436 Speaker 1: If we go to you know, we go to up 1569 01:21:21,676 --> 01:21:24,796 Speaker 1: to right, you know, and there's just a cohesion thing 1570 01:21:24,876 --> 01:21:27,236 Speaker 1: that nowadays wouldn't matter as much because of how people listen. 1571 01:21:27,636 --> 01:21:30,116 Speaker 1: But like if it had been going like you know, 1572 01:21:30,636 --> 01:21:32,596 Speaker 1: the Muscle Show, guys were like really and then you're 1573 01:21:32,636 --> 01:21:35,236 Speaker 1: going sing, you know, singer song right, it could be jarring. 1574 01:21:35,316 --> 01:21:37,596 Speaker 2: It would have been probably probably would have been jarring. 1575 01:21:37,996 --> 01:21:39,916 Speaker 2: So maybe I understand why I think they did it. 1576 01:21:40,036 --> 01:21:42,596 Speaker 2: But all right, would you have quibble bits? 1577 01:21:42,836 --> 01:21:43,196 Speaker 1: Yeah?

Peter, 1587 01:22:03,236 --> 01:22:05,756 Speaker 1: I put this as a two. Yeah, I mean I 1588 01:22:05,836 --> 01:22:08,956 Speaker 1: put it as a three. Just cauz like, I almost 1589 01:22:08,956 --> 01:22:12,276 Speaker 1: think it's sort of a one, but as as as 1590 01:22:12,316 --> 01:22:14,356 Speaker 1: we mentioned before and talked about, like it's sort of 1591 01:22:14,516 --> 01:22:16,516 Speaker 1: changed over time, so I don't really have it like 1592 01:22:16,636 --> 01:22:18,996 Speaker 1: is this snobby now? I mean definitely, Look it won 1593 01:22:19,036 --> 01:22:20,436 Speaker 1: a I mean it was a huge record where it 1594 01:22:20,436 --> 01:22:22,356 Speaker 1: came out.

I've been listening 1627 01:23:41,196 --> 01:23:41,316 Speaker 3: to it. 1628 01:23:41,356 --> 01:23:44,036 Speaker 1: Obviously. He had an exclamation point after maybe too well, 1629 01:23:44,076 --> 01:23:45,796 Speaker 1: only because that's been a thing of me. I usually 1630 01:23:45,836 --> 01:23:46,156 Speaker 1: get one. 1631 01:23:46,316 --> 01:23:49,396 Speaker 4: Peter always does maybe like even he doesn't like right, 1632 01:23:49,676 --> 01:23:51,636 Speaker 4: Maybe I never do it, but I kind of I 1633 01:23:51,716 --> 01:23:53,836 Speaker 4: did it first. I did move to no into the 1634 01:23:53,876 --> 01:23:57,796 Speaker 4: no category. I just think it's just not as good 1635 01:23:57,836 --> 01:24:00,396 Speaker 4: of a work of art as kind of what had 1636 01:24:00,436 --> 01:24:01,596 Speaker 4: you considering it as? 1637 01:24:02,356 --> 01:24:05,196 Speaker 1: How important it was for me as a musician, like 1638 01:24:05,556 --> 01:24:08,796 Speaker 1: you know again, I learned that Roads part on like 1639 01:24:08,916 --> 01:24:11,276 Speaker 1: one of the first things I transcribed that wasn't jazz. 1640 01:24:11,476 --> 01:24:14,796 Speaker 1: So that's how we're deciding if it's better then I 1641 01:24:14,836 --> 01:24:18,036 Speaker 1: think it's like how much stuff we learned off. 1642 01:24:19,276 --> 01:24:21,116 Speaker 3: I have a personal connection to it. It means that 1643 01:24:21,356 --> 01:24:22,636 Speaker 3: it has meant a lot to me. 1644 01:24:23,436 --> 01:24:27,076 Speaker 4: That's even as a songwriter of like of of you know, 1645 01:24:27,116 --> 01:24:29,956 Speaker 4: I occasionally do like to write pop songs and Paul 1646 01:24:29,996 --> 01:24:32,676 Speaker 4: Simon is like my number one for learning how to 1647 01:24:32,796 --> 01:24:36,036 Speaker 4: because he does a similar a similar workflow that I do, 1648 01:24:36,116 --> 01:24:40,916 Speaker 4: where he apparently does uh you know, melodies syllobically first 1649 01:24:41,036 --> 01:24:42,876 Speaker 4: and then writes a whole form around it and then 1650 01:24:42,876 --> 01:24:45,436 Speaker 4: it inserts a story later, which is by the way, 1651 01:24:45,556 --> 01:24:48,436 Speaker 4: insane for how great his stories are, Like usually when 1652 01:24:48,596 --> 01:24:50,956 Speaker 4: the lyrics are that good, it's the other way around. 1653 01:24:50,676 --> 01:24:51,476 Speaker 1: The reverse engineer. 1654 01:24:51,876 --> 01:24:54,836 Speaker 4: He's like he would be a Sudoku master at filling 1655 01:24:54,916 --> 01:24:57,396 Speaker 4: in blank spaces because he's just so good at that, 1656 01:24:58,116 --> 01:24:59,716 Speaker 4: And so it meant a lot to me personally. 1657 01:24:59,756 --> 01:25:01,756 Speaker 1: So yes, but I did move it away because I 1658 01:25:01,876 --> 01:25:04,956 Speaker 1: am a rational human being.

I have a nine and and 1675 01:25:46,596 --> 01:25:48,236 Speaker 1: I probably would have done seven or eight. The reason 1676 01:25:48,236 --> 01:25:50,316 Speaker 1: I did nine is because I know I'm starting to 1677 01:25:50,316 --> 01:25:54,756 Speaker 1: see I didn't realize how influential this style is right now, 1678 01:25:55,236 --> 01:25:57,076 Speaker 1: Like there's a bunch of people kind of and it's 1679 01:25:57,116 --> 01:25:59,156 Speaker 1: it's coming gone a couple of times.

I think it's it's at. 1759 01:29:38,356 --> 01:29:40,236 Speaker 4: That stage of its life where people are kind of 1760 01:29:40,276 --> 01:29:42,356 Speaker 4: going back and forth on it. Yeah, And we all 1761 01:29:42,436 --> 01:29:45,596 Speaker 4: are kind of going back and forth on even that era, 1762 01:29:46,756 --> 01:29:49,436 Speaker 4: on certain in certain genres, and if like there's you know, 1763 01:29:49,636 --> 01:29:51,756 Speaker 4: I think to your point about the broadness of the 1764 01:29:51,836 --> 01:29:53,356 Speaker 4: grooves and not going. 1765 01:29:53,636 --> 01:29:55,876 Speaker 1: Fully deep on it, I think it holds it back 1766 01:29:56,196 --> 01:29:58,756 Speaker 1: in retrospect a little bit. Yeah. Yeah, And I think 1767 01:29:58,836 --> 01:30:00,836 Speaker 1: even any of the quibble bits like that one or 1768 01:30:00,876 --> 01:30:02,476 Speaker 1: any of the things we've talked about that may be 1769 01:30:02,556 --> 01:30:06,556 Speaker 1: a little questionable. I think we'd have to question more 1770 01:30:06,676 --> 01:30:08,716 Speaker 1: the times and the way the music industry was set 1771 01:30:08,796 --> 01:30:10,636 Speaker 1: up at that time.
