Title: Help please
Post by: Will on 16 Nov 2007, 08:34

I haven't been on these forums in about a hundred million years, so I apologize if I'm asking for something that has already had a topic dedicated to it.

I'm looking for some music that has a New Orleans funeral-jazz feel to it. More accurately, I want some more music that sounds like the song 'Life In A Glasshouse" by Radiohead, but with less emphasis on the Radiohead and more on the sad jazz funeral sound. Any suggestions? Help me QC, you're my only hope!

Bohren & Der Club Of Gore? That's pretty much all I can think of when I read the words 'funeral jazz'

I know what you're talking about, but I can't think of any examples.


I GUESS I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT I MISSED YOU, WILL.

Will! Nice to see you around.

I'll dig in my Jazz albums for a bit and be back with results.

Probably not quite what you're looking for, but have you ever listened to The Dirty Dozen Brass Band?

there's quite a few Tom Waits songs that i think resemble what you're describing.

Holy crap it's Will! We missed you, dude.

I got nothin' as far as the request goes, though.

Jesus Christ, people.

Just get a halfway decent Jelly Roll Morton compilation. That'll have everything you want and a whole lot more.
