Sting and Herbie Hancock - Sister Moon 2005 - from ‘Possibilities’

Transcript

00:00I was in Paris in 1985, I was still in Round Midnight.

00:16I would go at night, I'd go down to the theater to hear Sting, and I'd set in with him about

00:21three times. All the models would come to the theater to see Sting. Every night it was like,

00:29and she's everywhere.

00:31Hey, how are you?

00:33I'm quite a nice one to the other side.

00:35Oh, hey Donna, how are you?

00:37Oh, hi, bro.

00:39How are you?

00:41Hey, how are you doing?

00:43Nice to see you.

00:45I'm so glad you're here.

00:46Happy birthday.

00:47I don't want to play this shit.

00:49When was it?

00:50What?

00:51My birthday was last Saturday.

00:53That's there.

00:54Related happy birthday.

00:55Thank you, everybody.

00:56So, how old are you now?

00:58I'm 53.

00:5953?

01:00I figured it out.

01:01I figured it out.

01:02I'm the same age as you.

01:03Yeah, right.

01:04Once Sting suggested Sister Moon, at first I started to think, you know, maybe we should

01:13write something specifically for this, something new.

01:16Right.

01:17But then I started to think, well, maybe we could come up with another way to do it.

01:24So, I called Daniel Luecke, who is an amazing guitar player from Benin, West Africa.

01:31He was a member of the student band for the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz.

01:38I called and I asked him, I said, you know, do you think you could come up with some kind

01:46of arrangement idea that utilizes some of the stuff from Africa I knew with the tune

01:54Sister Moon?

01:55So, he made this arrangement, which I looked at it, but I haven't really played it.

02:00But I looked at some of the chords and stuff.

02:02It's kind of cool.

02:03Cool.

02:04Because of the particular culture that he comes from in Benin, West Africa, there are

02:10some elements that he can lend to the music that give it another kind of twist.

02:20I didn't know what Lionel was going to come up with.

02:48It's not a...

02:54Sorry, yeah.

02:55We've got to get that pushed.

03:05It's very nice.

03:07It's a lot about the rhythm.

03:09It's a lot about the spirit, too.

03:11You know, the way you...

03:14The same phrase can be played from like ten musicians.

03:19They all will play differently.

03:21Like if they're musicians from Africa, from America, from Europe, they're all going to play

03:26different because from where you grow up, you have that background inside you naturally.

03:32It overlaps stuff we know, but it's got this other stuff.

03:52He cements it together with his family.

03:54And his family.

03:55And his family.

03:56And his family.
