About This Song
About "Grandpa's Spells (Take 3)" by Jelly Roll Morton's Red Hot Peppers
Grandpa's spells are cast in stop-time breaks and stomping horns—Morton's Peppers conjure a séance of swinging ghosts. Take 3 balances gleeful anarchy with tight ensemble discipline, each chorus a new trick. Hot jazz, playful yet possessed by a restless, ancestral energy.
