The Tighten Up (Buttier/Bell. Additional lyrics by Ben Schenck) Ah, that sounds pretty good. Let's make a party, y'all. Hey! Hey everybody, I'm Ben Schenck from the Panorama Jazz Band in New Orleans, Louisiana. We don't only play jazz but we do all kinds of other styles of music too like Jewish and Caribbean... Right now we're gonna do a little Top 40 number you might remember from 1968 called "The Tighten Up." First let's tighten up on the drums. Aaaw yeah! A'ight now let's tighten up on the tuba. That's pretty deep! Now let's bring that banjo in. Now tighten up on the accordion. Ooh, that's nice and tight! "It's tight like that Louie!" Lu: "Roger" Outasite cuz don't forget: Tight Makes Right. All right well, get ready for the break. Now make it mellow. Oh do The Tighten Up, oh yeah. Now do The Tighten Up, it's all right. Do it to the left, now do it to the right. Oh do The Tighten Up, but don't get too tight. Yeah! Y'all dancin' out there? Ah, good. A'ight well, let's do this again. Now tighten up on the drums. Hey look, this time instead of tightening up all the other instruments, let's try a different idea... Everybody cut loose! (Instrumental Jam Up) All right, now make it mellow. Yeah! Do The Tighten Up. Oh The Tighten Up. Do it to the left and do it to the right. Do it with the one that you love all night. But don't get too tight! All right, this has been a lot of fun y'all. We had a real good party but we're on a tight schedule. Now I think it's about time we get out. Let's make a tight ending. We're all gonna end together right here. Everybody on the downbeat. 4 - 3 - 2 - 1!

I'm growing tired of the big city lights Tired of the glamour and tired of the sights In all my dreams I am roaming once more Back to my home on the old river shore Chorus: I'm so sad and weary far away from home Miss the Mississippi and you dear Days are dark and dreary everywhere I roam I miss the Mississippi and you Roaming the wide world over Always alone and blue, so blue Nothing seems to cheer me under heaven's dome Miss the Mississippi and you. (Yodel) Verse (spoken): When you live in the city, you end up making all kinda horrible sacrifices. You're unable to connect because you're wedded to your electronic devices! (sung) All's I want is to take the canoe Then float down the river and snuggle with you. Chorus: Memories are bringing happy days of yore Miss the Mississippi and you Mockingbirds are singing 'round the cabin door Miss the Mississippi and you Roamin' the wide world over Always alone and so blue Longing for my homeland, muddy water shore Miss the Mississippi and you (Yodel)

Sa buhay ko'y labis Ang hirap at pasakit, Ng pusong umiibig Mandi'y wala ng langit At ng lumigaya, hinango mo sa dusa Tanging ikaw sinta, ang aking pag-asa. Dahil sa iyo, nais kong mabuhay Dahil Sa Iyo, hanggang mamatay Dapat mong tantuin, wala ng ibang giliw Puso ko'y tanungin, ikaw at ikaw rin. Dahil sa iyo, ako'y lumigaya Pagmamahal, ay alayan ka Kung tunay man ako, ay alipinin mo Ang lahat sa buhay ko, dahil sa iyo. Because of you, there's a joy in living. Because of you, life is heavenly. I never lived before, never felt a single thrill before, My heart stood still before, Darlin' I'm in ecstasy. Because of you, love is sweet and tender. And this my love I will offer you: If you will care for me, all things to you I'll be. My heart is ever true because of you. English translation of Tagalog lyric: Long have I endured in my life. The pain and sorrows from Love arise. Then you came and redeemed me, my dear, My only hope in my darkest fears. Because of you, I yearn to be alive. Because of you, ‘til death (you) must realize In my heart I know there is only you. And ask my heart, you’ll know that this is true. Because of you, I found happiness. That to you I offer this love that is so blessed. Though indeed I may be a slave for loving you so true It matters not to me, ‘cause everything’s because of you.

I wonder as I wander I wonder as I wander out under the sky How Jesus the Savior did come for to die For poor or'n'ry sinners like you and like I I wonder as I wander out under the sky When Mary birthed Jesus 'twas in a cow's stall With shepherds and farmers and wise men and all But high from God's heaven a star's light did fall And the promise of ages it then did recall If Jesus had wanted for any wee thing A star from the sky or a bird on the wing Or all of God's Angels in heaven to sing He surely could have it 'cause he was the King I wonder as I wander out under the sky How Jesus the Savior did come for to die For poor or'n'ry sinners like you and like I I wonder as I wander out under the sky

about

This is Panorama's third compilation from the song-of-the-month-club, "Good Music For You."

When you’ve played a tune enough times, you don’t have to think about the notes any more. You can devote all your attention to blending with the other cats on stage – tone, phrasing, dynamics, the pocket… Sometimes there’s even a thing where the band is extra hooked-up: many players but one sound and the music seems to have a will of its own. Then you just gotta get out the way and Let The Music Play You!
