GOT IT - the original song is called "The Old Gray Mare". You can read more about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Old_Gray_Mare

05.05.09 Two Step Jeff and Rashawn play Hollywood Swinging (by Kool and the Gang). Can't post the exact time b/c I was listening to this on wdmbradio.com...

[sledgehammer]

We need an interpolations sub-forum

[dancheatham]

The horns have been doing some different songs at the end of Tim's solo in #41 this year... I have a few of them on the Almanac (mostly If You Want Me to Stay, which they did for almost all of 2009), but if anyone wants to take a stab at the rest, I'd be much obliged (One of them sounds like the chorus from RHCP's Purple Stain, but I'm pretty sure it's not that...)

BTW, Jesse, I've finally verified and put quite a few of these up on the Almanac, so keep up the good work

05.19.02 Lover Lay Down, Roi play Somewhere Over The Rainbow

Just the "some day I'll wish upon a star and wake up where the clouds are far" part.

This was just on WDMBradio.

If you want a cluster fuck of Interpolations, listen to jimi thing from 8-27-10 at marysville. It was littered all over the place!

In Order Starting with first Jam - at least what I recognized)
Jeff - Woody Woodpecker? (very start I recognize but don't know what it is...)
Trombone - Putting on the Ritz
Rashawn/Jeff - Possible one at 7:10ish? Can't recognize it but I know I've heard it.
Jeff - Favorite Things 8:50ish
Sax - Inspector Gadget 9:00
Trombone - Ain't No Rest For the Wicked - Cage the Elephant 9:12
Sexy Mother Fucker Outro

10-03-93 (Van Riper's) Ants Marching, Dueling Banjos by Roi at 2:55, also played around 4:15.

07-21-92 Ants Marching, Dueling Banjos by Roi and Boyd at 1:38 and 2:59

[Dannyyankou]

This one is really obscure because it was omitted from the official release, but 07-17-10, at around 3:12, Dave songs a few lines of "New York, New York". Also, in Live at Wrigley Field, Rashawn Ross interpolates "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" during Grey Street.

This one isn't in the Almanac - nice find.

[Roose13]

I swear in the Two Step from Hershey 6.27.08 that the horn parts by Roi/Rashawn is a "Zero" interpolation by the Smashing Pumpkins.

12-09-12 LIOG, Hogan's Heroes theme by Jeff and Rashawn, right around the 13:55 mark

[zajDmB1]

They both play some trademark Mingus horn riffs all the time.

Can you post some examples of these? I would never catch these, since I don't know Mingus at all.

4/18/1998 - During Crush, Dave interpolates "Miss You" by The Rolling Stones in the outro jam.

[daveshookme]

Grey Street from SPAC Jeff interpolates Frosty The Snowman, it sounds like. About ~3:30 in.

[awsomepath]

Yea, he definitely does for a second or 2.

[awsomepath]

The horns interpolate Billy Cobham's "Red Baron" over Tim's solo on Jimi Thing N3 of the Gorge last summer.

[Dannyyankou]

Rashawn plays the All Things Considered theme at around 4:40 on Proudest Monkey from fenway.

[VTDMBNH]

Got one to add to the list: at the D&T show in Canindaigua (07-06-16), during LIOG Tim plays a little bit of Pachelbel's Canon. It's at 4:41 in this video: https://youtu.be/p9D9TP6oDzY

[Roi Lives]

This was one of LeRoi's calling cards, and it's a fairly old jazz tradition to "quote" other songs during a solo. He was a fountain of jingles, ditties, snippets, and interpolations. It was one of his most prominent musical quirks, even before DMB. Lots of people I spoke to in the course of writing about him talked about his ability to throw in songs from cartoons, top 40, you name it. He was even throwing in shit from viral videos. I wrote about it here: http://roilives.tumblr.com/post/1344...ate-rain-moore

[coldengrey12]

The fact that the Chocolate Rain interp became a recurring thing is still weird/funny to me.

[tyler3440]

The chocolate rain interpretation was pretty awesome. And I didn't even know it was from a YouTube video until now. Crazy how that fits into dreaming tree so well. really miss Roi.

[bowa36]

Somewhat recently (2010?-present) they've been doing a Lost in Space theme interpolation at the end of Billies, almanac doesn't make note of it though.
