about

“Blue Ramen #1” is a lament, set to what might be termed a “Hollywood samba”, or perhaps "Back-alley Mancini"..... One imagines Los Angeles session players emulating samba for a commercial film, not an authentic Brazilian band. Andy Spadafora on saxophone, Eric Jacobsen on trumpet, Allen Russell on violin, John Paul Simons on bass, Bryan Rogers on piano, the very authentic and recently departed Cecilio Negron on percussion, and Zelonky on guitar and vibraphone, create a lush aural environment, culminating in a dreamy closing vamp with “whitebread” backing singers intoning the title behind Gervis Myles' impassioned vocal, amid a swirl of improvised trumpet, violin, and piano. This haunting, yet ironic song may well have found its way into the popular consciousness ... if the movie had actually existed!

lyrics

Blue Ramen
Each night’s the same again
They’re blue from end to end my friend
Blue Ramen

I remember all the little things you said
Still in dreams your laughter rings inside my head

Blue Ramen
The kind we never had
When lover’s luck turns bad - so sad
Blue Ramen

When we danced it seemed at last that love was true
But since you’ve gone I find that all my ramen’s blue

Blue Ramen
Each night’s the same again
They’re blue from end to end my friend
Blue Ramen

Blue Ramen (Blue Ramen number one)
Blue Ramen (Blue Ramen number one)
Blue Ramen (Blue Ramen number one)
Blue Ramen (Blue Ramen number one)
Blue Ramen (Blue Ramen number one)
Blue Ramen (Blue Ramen number one)
