I don't know [C] about my life,
[Em] I don't know [C] about my love [G] anymore.
All that I know is [F] I'm falling, [Em] falling, [D] falling, [C] falling.
[G] What's up?
This is Mike B.
We're here at Amoeba Music in San Francisco.
And [B] we're here with Mr.
James Blake [Eb] today.
And we're going to see what is in his bag.
Right, okay.
So starting out, we've got the Art Tatum pieces of 8.
I don't actually know whether this is a compilation or what.
I've got all of it on mp3, but I think there's going to be something special about hearing him on vinyl.
For sure.
[Ab]
[Bb] So are you a big Tatum fan?
[Eb] Yes, yes I am.
Do you kind of have the piano training in common?
[Ebm] I don't know if we've got anything in common.
I think he's fucking amazing.
I think he's one of [Eb] the few pianists that I think a lot of pianists in the classical world would go and [G] watch him and be [Abm] shocked and awed.
And Horovitz and people like that would be in his front row, which is [Ab] pretty amazing.
We've got 80 [N] Aliens, which I can't get in there.
I'm not allowed to get in the [G] UK.
Oh really?
That is an absolute classic.
[Ab] And while I was [Gb] here I thought I'd get this as well, Kermini, because that is probably my favourite album by then.
[Bb] [G]
[Eb] [Bb] [G]
[N] And we've got [Bb] Errol Garner, [Eb] Piano Soloz, another one of my favourite pianists, who's a bit [A] easier to listen to than Art Tatum [G] I'd say.
Errol Garner's kind [F] [Bb] of
I know I hear [G] a lot [Cm] of his influence in modern [G] music for example.
Just the way [Gm] he swings between being really, really behind [Gbm] the time to being right in it.
[F] Someone like Drake actually, his [Cm] flow reminds me of that sort of thing where he [G] just rests [Db] really far behind the beat for a while and then just goes [G] locked in.
He's got [B] an [D] incredible sense of rhythm where he'd have his left hand [Ab] chugging along doing this kind of comping rhythm [Db] and his right hand would be doing something completely different.
[Cm] I did learn a [E] lot from that on the piano I [B] suppose.
So then we've got [F] Mahalia Jackson.
I don't actually [B] know what this record is, [C] but I know that it's her singing Just A Closer Walk With Thee, which is really on the hip.
[F]
[Bb] [A]
[G] [B] And we've got Martin, Megadeth Generation, which was a [N] huge trend for a while and people kind of played it quite a lot.
And I never actually heard it in a club and I started playing it recently and people were like, oh no, that got overplayed or whatever.
But it's an incredible piece of music.
It moves pretty quickly in [A] London as far as tunes [Eb] getting big and then moving on.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean everyone loved it.
[B] But I think every house DJ was playing it and [N] I've kind of just discovered how good it is.
So, it might be my last one.
Reverend James Cleveland and the Angelic Choir.
This is my favourite [B] record, my favourite [Gb] gospel record.
I don't have the whole CD [Ab] though, I only have a couple of the tracks on it.
But yeah, Peace Be Still.
I've talked about this a couple of times actually.
It's just this amazing tension and release thing going on that, I don't know, I was definitely influenced by that track in [Db] particular, Peace Be Still.
[Gb]
Oh, what a [Ab] good time.
[F] You've got a [Bbm]
[Ab]
[Db] good time.
There's [N] people in the audience obviously or in the church, sort of gasping [B] and kind of screaming.
[Gb] It's just like the atmosphere is just electric and you don't, obviously, you can't have that with produced music.
Do you think you might want to move in, you know, [N] that might be a reaction that you'd want to go for with your performances?
Well, yeah, I mean.
Who wouldn't?
Yeah, I suppose, I mean, I can't [G] generate that level [A] of electricity.
Yes it is!
Yes it is!
I don't think [Gb] I've heard anyone do that in the same way that that record does it.
But I suppose you [Em] can try and do it in your own way.
[C] [Em]
[C] Well, [A]
thanks for being with us today and I'm sure we'll see you back [Em] in San Francisco sometime soon.
Cool man, thank you.
Peace!
[G] [Gbm] [Em]
[G] [C] [D]
