Someday Baby is an old number. Its refrain says "But someday baby, you ain't gonna worry my life any elevator of an apartment block arrives at the second floor. Pop musician opens its door pushing ahead with his back with a big speaker in his left hand, in the other one there's a mixing board in its steel case. Sure, he can't help knocking against every door around and to boot, his instruments are still inside the elevator. (Metal doors are very suitable for waking up all dogs in the house, which sleep behind apartment doors.) When the club musician finally crawls into his flat and tries to find his way to the room, which is for storing his things, again, he bumps over some aluminum chairs. When he lays his smoky body down to the pallet where his sweetheart snuffles, she ask sleepily "When are you going to make some real money?" The answer is the band's name.
Sure, it has nothing to do with reality. How could it happen that band members carry their equipment? Oh, come on! They do make real money, who can ask such a thing?
Someday Baby is almost like Cream or Nirvana since the latter two are also trios and have drums. It's about the end of the similarities, we ain't no crap rock'n'roll band. We're a crap blues band. Hey, not like that, you should never think about two-floor Marshall guitar amp towers. We are not in a purple haze, we "are not experienced", we don't want you to "gimme some lovin'", we can't help it!
So let's start off with the drums because it's familiar to everybody. It's the only reason that we can't travel with a single car. Nothing can be done, otherwise there will be no big beat! The other large instrument is the "giant trumpet" (that's what the "experts" would say), how easier it would be with a bass guitar! The third instrument is the reso-phonic guitar. I'm often asked if I made it at home. OK, it seems like a filter inserted in the middle but it's not homemade but rather a quite expensive one. (Not mine because it's a cheapo example compared to a real National but you can get more info here, you'll get the explanation: www.nationalguitars.com .)
Now we are finished with the instruments. Who are behind these? Drums: Zolt?n K?rp?ti who's long-time in Blue S Trio but we should let him talk about this. J?nos Mazura: tuba and he is the only skilled musician in the group (Music Academy, strong classical and jazz music background are all key words). (He can read and write notes, check this out!) Csaba G?l Boogie is the one who strains his voice and makes his above mentioned reso-phonic squeak with a Tokaj wine bottleneck.
When we untie all our entangled cables, tune up, set the soundboard then it's show time. But what is it about? Indeed, they are quite old numbers but not from some historical Billboard top list but from the grooves from even older 78-rpm records. This is the case mostly. There are some exceptions but I'm not going to talk about them now! The origins of these songs are associated with the so-called "Deep South". Somehow they turn to be different after all because we mix these originals with inconsistent elements. It's like a 1930's barrelhouse on one side of the street and a skateboard bowl on the other. They are still in the same house.
