The Joker
Steve Miller BandSeptember 2015Newbridge MemoTobias Robertson - lead vocals
The most carefully made thing on our channel, and the one that took the most people to produce. Directed by Jack Browse and Greg Fisher at Roll Your Own Productions, recorded and mixed at Junkyard Studios with Jamie Young engineering and Jason Norman editing.
Tobias Robertson sings it. Tobias is from Newport and is part of what we do rather than a guest brought in for a video, which is worth saying because the polish here might suggest otherwise.
The song suits a laid-back treatment and resists being hurried, which is unusual in a set built around keeping a floor busy. It sits in the part of a night where people are still arriving, or in a garden in the afternoon, rather than at eleven o’clock. Songs that work at that tempo without going flat are genuinely scarce, and this one has earned its place.
Filmed at Newbridge Memo, in the same run of sessions as Uptown Funk and Beat It.
