Les McCann, Eddie Harris, "Compared to What"

I found out today that the great Les McCann died Friday, age 88. He and Harris, who put on this now-legendary gig at Montreux as an unplanned gig, had long careers on their own, before and after. On this day in 1969, they walked onstage without rehearsal or ever having played together and did it, working under the additional pressure that this unscheduled performance was being recorded and filmed.

This added a little fillip to the story:

Despite the pressure, or perhaps because of it, as Mr. McCann recalled in the liner notes for the 1996 CD reissue of the concert album, which was released in 1969 as 'Swiss Movement,' “Just before we went onstage, and for the first time in my life, I smoked some hash.”

When he got to the bandstand, he wrote, “I didn’t know where the hell I was. I was totally disoriented. The other guys said, ‘OK, play, man!’ Somehow I got myself together, and after that, everything just took off.”

Even if you know the song, watching them perform it is a treat.

Brutal. Les McCann (RIP), soberbio a la voz y el piano, y en los vientos Benny Bailey y uno de nuestros jazzmen favoritos, Eddie Harris, en su increíble versión de "Compared To What", con ese arranque tan "Get Ready" de Temptations (1966). Una canción protesta (Vietnam, Lyndon B. Johnson) escrita por Gene McDaniels y grabada por Roberta Flack en febrero de 1969 en su primer LP "First Take". En junio de ese año la hicieron en directo Harris, Mcann y compañía en el Montreux Jazz Festival, y a continuación salió en su disco "Swiss Movement".

A Truly Diverse Bridgerton Cast

Okay so full disclosure: I first made this fancast list for a Kathony fic series I had written and because it was about a traditional Indian love marriage between them, I made all the Bridgertons Indian. I have unfortunately since abandoned that fic so please don’t send asks about it! However, my friends and I have been talking and been really upset that people have been calling for a white Sophie and how after Sophie (hopefully she’s WOC) we won’t ever see another WOC lead until Lucy and we don’t even know if S5 to S8 is happening. 

So I present the Fancast of Spite, brought to you by the Kanthypants & Eldest Daughters GC and especially my wife @sophiamariabeckett​ for encouraging me to post this!! [Also better viewing on mobile because the app resizes the photos to be the same size for you!]

#11 mirror - with the Mota character(s) and OC(s) of your choice with the critical question: "Are there any god-chosen in this Mota universe?"

This is the loveliest question, thank you for sending it! 💙 I had a proper little think about this for a while, and I think this POV perhaps works best of all... Colonel Harding, dealing with his roster of god-chosen and a new arrival. For those of you new to this AU, I think that this piece serves well as a lowkey introduction to the idea. You can find a little more info on this particular AU in the pinned post on my blog or in its relevant tag right here.

COLONEL NEIL B. HARDING

100TH BOMB GROUP

BURN AFTER READING

His thumb lands heavy on the last word. The order stands out stark in red ink, as if to remind him he needs to commit this paper to the flames at his earliest convenience. So classified that its mere existence in writing should always be a temporary thing, committed to memory and nothing else.

Neil inhales sharply. Some of this list is not a surprise. There’s Cleven, near the top, neatly penciled in as Air-chosen. The two lady pilots – Julie Langdon and Christina Heartfield – both carry Home next to their names. There is Truth-chosen Perrault, whose eyes had carried nothing but a steel trap when he’d met her, and John Brady’s careful Balance right below that. And certainly, there are also the known questionmarks between them. Egan’s name carries it, alongside a note that questions Trickster? as if Neil’s supposed to have the answer to that speculation. Rivers’s questionmark is a concern, no matter how often Cleven’s assurance Lot’s all right, sir is said out loud, and he’s not even going to ask about James Douglass anymore.

Then, there are the new additions. The surprises. The things his predecessor had warned about in a neat little note that carried a few blood spatters at its edges. They keep sending god-chosen our way. Some of them barely remember to take their suppressants, while others are so new to it that they form a liability to the crews. I fear their power is too absolute. Their influence too great.

“Rosenthal, was it?” Neil’s fingers itch for a smoke. Or a drink. He has neither. “Name like that,” he says instead, glancing down at the personnel roster to ensure there has not been a mistake, “I would have assumed Water-chosen.”

The man’s mouth quirks up just a little. “Many do, sir. Certainly surprised my family when I chose another.”

“I was told the god does the choosing.” Sunday school. Shepherd’s preachers. All those damn pamphlets about being chosen by a god that’d been distributed at West Point. “Are you trying to tell me now that you’ve all had a choice in turn, Rosenthal?”

“The god chooses first,” says Rosenthal, voice so void of his god’s influence that Neil almost thinks the roster a fluke, “and we accept the choice, or we do not. Most of us say yes at some point.” His eyes crinkle a little. Soften as he nods at the roster. “That will get longer. More detailed. Anyone taken as POW will be numbed by stronger suppressants. My crew is already building its tolerance, sir.”

Neil’s hand tracks the additions beneath Rosenthal’s name. Lewis, Wisdom-chosen. DeBlasio, Air-chosen. Bailey and Boccuzzi, Fate-chosen. Milburn, Fire-chosen… “Tell your bombardier to speak to Lombardi.” He can feel a headache blossom behind his eyes. “She is Fire-chosen too. Serves as bombardier to Benny DeMarco right now. Only thing he complains about is finding scorch marks on his plane post-mission.”

That earns him a good-natured chuckle. “The scorch marks sure sound familiar.” Rosenthal’s fingers drum out a gentle rhythm on the arms of his chair. “I’ll be sure to let Cliff know about Lombardi. Chances are he will find her before I do. Like often recognizes like, sir.”

Opening. Aim. “There is another chosen like you on this base, Rosenthal.”

“The red-haired mechanic down by the hardstands this morning,” comes the immediate response. Score. “Carries favor so loudly that even her two suppressants cannot contain it in full. Enchanting woman, I am sure”– and Rosenthal’s eyes spark with such good humor that Neil almost smiles back –“most especially when she cursed out loud upon seeing me and then managed to apologize to Pappy for her language in the same breath.”

Neil leans back in his seat. Lights the roster on fire with the tip of his cigar. “You two do not seem alike to me, Rosenthal.”

“I imagine not, sir. Sergeant Mayfair and I believe it is like those funhouse mirrors. It is still the same god, but finding different expression in different people. Needing us for different things.”

“So Mayfair is the flirt”– Neil doesn’t feel bad about saying it, not after that smile she threw him while having forgotten her suppressant a week ago –“and the beacon that warms the heart. Friendly face, always a kind word, helps bring our planes home.” He drops the burning roster into the wastepaper bucket Red gave him. Commits the details to memory best he can. “That, I can understand. That’s love to a man. Keeps them going when the game gets tough. But you? Rosenthal, what on earth is a Love-chosen pilot going to do in a war as hard as this one?”

Robert Rosenthal meets his eyes unflinchingly. “Whatever I can, Colonel Harding.” A slight smile. A minuscule nod. The air behind him seems to flicker, glow, enshrine his brow in fiercest gold the longer Neil stares at him. “For however long I can.”

His voice carries an echo of battle drums.
