Hey, it's Shawn [Bm] from Cat Power, [E] and this is Amoeba [Bm].com.
[E] I have a couple of my favorite records of all time.
[Bm] I have a lot of favorite records of all time, [E] but my first two
Is this
Sorry, it wasn't funny.
Okay?
Okay!
Just kidding.
And I have another record that's really good.
[C]
This is called [G] Crescent.
My favorite song on this album [A] is called Lonnie's [F] Lament.
And for some reason, [D] everything that I really love,
[Gm] whatever, sneakers or cheap socks or whatever,
they always stop making it.
[Bb] So I'd recommend [G] this one, because it's got Lonnie's Lament on it.
[Cm] [Dm] [A]
[Dm] [Cm] [D] [Eb]
[Fm] [D] [Cm] [Dm]
[A] [Cm] [D] It's one of the most beautiful songs of John Coltrane.
I believe [Cm] he's from North Carolina.
I heard on [C] the radio somewhere an interview [Ab] with him,
and oh, he's a [Bbm] gentleman, such a gentleman.
And they were asking him [F] these very academic questions,
[Abm] and he was just so Southern,
[G] and just hearing him be Southern [Dm] and relaxed, it [Cm] was amazing.
Do you [Gm] remember who first introduced you to [B] Coltrane?
I was in Cape Town [Bb] when I was 24, and I went to [Em] this
I was like, where is a fucking
Sorry.
It was a late night music place, [E] and walking around
This was back when you had [Am] a phone book, you had to find it.
But anyway, so I walked into this [D] place, me and my friend Appaloosa, Anlor.
We walked into this [A] jazz club.
[C] We were the only [Gm] women in the club, and we were the only
[G] There was one more white dude on stage playing alto [B] sax.
He's really good, [G] the young guy is really good, he's from Sweden.
Go [E] talking with him after the thing, da-da-da, the guy comes [Em] and sits with us,
the guy next door comes and sits with us, having [C] a nice time.
Start hanging out with him, and he [D] turned me on to this record.
And it's awesome.
So I had Billy Idol sit in today, because [G] Sean's still putting their makeup [Db] on,
trying to look 39.
And this is [G] record number two.
[C] A Sensueur Poilé Chapeu, starring Jeanne Leroux.
It's a soundtrack [Am] recorded and composed by Miles Davis in 1955.
[C] I've never seen the movie, [D] but in America [Am] they printed it,
and they called it Jazz [G] Track on side A, and it has the whole record on [G] one side,
and side B is something else.
But this is like, [Gm] they've been [A] reprinting these.
[Dm] [F]
[C] [Bbm] [Dm]
I had the original this and [D] that, and I'm just trying to ship it to Jay-Z as a [Em] gift.
[Fm] Maybe there's a picture of him.
[Dm]
[C] Have you ever read his autobiography?
No.
[Abm]
[A] [C] Well, thank you so much for talking with us today.
Thank you, that was fun.
I love Amoeba.
Lucia turned [Dm] me on to Amoeba.
The barbecue last night, [D] Sasha was playing in the room.
[C] Bullshit.
Yeah, and I [Dm] was like, this is John's song.
[C] No way.
[F] No way.
[D] It was so awesome.
Amoeba.
