Blackberry Smoke. Thelonious Monk (p). Chris Dave (d) - Eingebettete Youtube-Videos, 10., 19. & 27. April 2022 / Embedded Youtube videos, April 10, 19 & 27, 2022 -

Blackberry Smoke (herausragender Live-Klang & Stil) *, Thelonious Monk (p, 1917-82, Modernjazz-Mitbegruender, wichtig fuer Mhdb-Akkorde & -Changes, rhythmische Vertracktheit) * und Chris Dave (d, 'zeitgenoessischer' Jazz, ausgefallenes Schlagzeugspiel) *: Sie beeinflussen Mhdb stark in den letzten Jahren. Diese Einfluesse kopiert oder 'covert' Mhdb nicht, sondern verarbeitet oder testet sie und baut sie in einen der bestehenden 43 Mhdb-Songs oder das Mhdb-Konzept ein.

Blackberry Smoke (outstanding live sound & style) *, Thelonious Monk (p, 1917-82, modern jazz co-founder, important to Mhdb chords & changes, rhythmic trickiness) *, and Chris Dave (d, 'contemporary' jazz, fancy drumming) *: They have influenced Mhdb greatly in recent years. These influences are not copied or 'covered' by Mhdb, but processed or tested out and integrated into one of the existing 43 Mhdb songs or the Mhdb concept.

Blackberry Smoke, einerseits: herausragender Live-Klang & Stil. - Andererseits: Seit Maerz 2020 hat Mhdb beispielsweise Blackberry Smoke beobachtet, wie diese Band die Corona-Quarantaene und -krise ueberwindet. Nach anfaenglichen Online-Band-Sessions und gelegentlich live gestreamten Auftritten ohne anwesendes Publikum bietet Blackberry Smoke wohl Livestreaming seit etwa November 2020 ( https://fb.watch/5jvue-Rn9y/ ). Aber zugleich tourte Blackberry Smoke weiter durch USA und Kanada unter vermutlich Corona-Auflagen (grosszuegiger als das quasi totale Kulturverbot in Deutschland, aber auch riskant, sich zu infizieren) *. Allerdings haben B. S. ihre Europa-Tour (Muenchen, Koeln, Stuttgart, Wiesbaden, Berlin, etc) von Februar 2022 auf Maerz 2023 verschoben. Das Touren setzten B. S. in den USA fort (niedrige Corona-Inzidenz seit Laengerem).

Blackberry Smoke, on the one hand: outstanding live sound & style. - On the other hand: Since March 2020, Mhdb have watched, for example, Blackberry Smoke, how this band has overcome the corona quarantine & crisis. After initial online band sessions and occasional live-streamed performances without a live audience, Blackberry Smoke have probably offered live streaming since around November 2020 ( https://fb.watch/5jvue-Rn9y/ ). But at the same time, Blackberry Smoke have continued touring the USA and Canada probably under corona conditions (more generous than the quasi total cultural ban in Germany, but also risky of getting infected) *. However, B. S. have postponed their European tour (Munich, Cologne, Stuttgart, Wiesbaden, Berlin, etc) from February 2022 to March 2023. B. S. continue touring in the USA (low covid incidence for a long time).
