Dave Osti - In The West (Repost)

Dave Osti - In The West - 2007

Dave Osti é um guitarrista californiano que vem empolgando seu público há mais de 30 anos com sua 

guitarra de blues e  seu violão folk não somente como músico, mas também como compositor. Em sua carreira, "Dirty" Dave Osti já dividiu o palco com artistas do quilate de Don Henley, Guns and Roses, Crosby Stills & Nash, Philip Sayce, Frank Simes e BB Chung King.

In The West foi foi gravado em 2005, em uma sessão de - se não falha meus neurônios - 3 dias realizada em seu apartamento. Todas as 21 canções (ufa!) são de sua autoria.

Esse álbum nada tem a ver com seus trabalhos mais recentes, embassados em um blues-rock à Steve Ray Vaughan (é!, quase) ou Derek Miller. In The West é Folk. Folk com boas pintadas de blues.

John Entwistle - Rarities Oxhumed - Volume 1

John Entwistle - Rarities Oxhumed - Volume 1 - 2022

John Entwistle’s deep cuts have been unearthed with the new album, Rarities Oxhumed: Volume One, which features demos, outtakes, and live cuts from his career. It was put together in part by his longtime collaborator and drummer Steve Luongo, who performed in The John Entwistle Band up until The Ox’s untimely death in 2002.

“John and I began touring together in 1987. Every tour was more fun than the last,” Luongo states. “That was the idea. Play loud aggressive rock & roll, have fun, laugh our asses off, travel to the next gig, and repeat. During the 15 years that we worked together as a rhythm section, we remained true to that cause. Along the way, we recorded some records and created a sizable catalog of ideas and material for the future. The future is now.”

Songs on the collection include a live take of “Bogey Man” featuring Entwistle’s The Who bandmate Keith Moon, a demo for The Who called “Where You Going Now,” and a live version of “Trick of the Light” from the Entwistle Band’s final tour in 2001.

Jimi Hendrix - Los Angeles Forum (26 april 1969)

Jimi Hendrix - Los Angeles Forum (26 april 1969) - 2022

Following the massive success of The Jimi Hendrix Experience’s 1967-68 studio album trifecta (Are You Experienced, Axis: Bold As Love, and Electric Ladyland), the trio (singer/guitarist Jimi Hendrix, drummer Mitch Mitchell, bassist Noel Redding) had developed into the most popular international touring attraction in rock music. This widescale public interest coincided with the construction of new arenas for sporting events, among them the Forum in Inglewood, CA. Designed by famed architect Charles Luckman (who also designed New York’s rebuilt Madison Square Garden), this multi-purpose venue opened in 1967 as the home of the Los Angeles Kings hockey team and Los Angeles Lakers basketball team, but also began to serve as a music venue. Among the earliest concerts held there was Aretha Franklin in January 1968 and the Cream farewell tour with opening act Deep Purple in October of that year. The Jimi Hendrix Experience were booked to perform on April 26, 1969 with opening acts Chicago Transit Authority (soon-to-be renamed Chicago) and Cat Mother & The All Night Newsboys, the latter of whom shared management with the headliners. Floor seats cost $6.50 ($51.20 adjusted for inflation).

By the time The Jimi Hendrix Experience took the stage to blaze through a spirited set, live concert sound had drastically improved from the time of The Beatles baseball stadium tours, but crowd control was still a major concern. Between songs, Jimi pled with audience members to stop rushing the stage. A heavy police presence is felt; lyrics for their hit “Purple Haze” are altered (“’Scuse me while I kiss that policeman!”) and Jimi dedicates “Spanish Castle Magic” to “the plain clothes police out there and other goofballs.”

Hendrix treated each performance as a unique event. He never relied on a standard set list comprised only of his biggest commercial hits. This approach was on full display at the Forum performance, blending more familiar tunes such as “Foxey Lady” with “I Don’t Live Today” from Are You Experienced and his signature blues original “Red House”(“Everybody want to know what America’s soul is; everybody think it’s Motown … America’s soul is something more like this here”) which had still not yet been released in the US at this time.

Furthermore, the group opened their set with a cover of “Tax Free” – an obscure 1967 instrumental by Swedish duo Hansson & Karlsson (consisting of Bo Hansson and Janne Karlsson), with whom The Experience had previously shared bills in Stockholm. Another unique highlight featured within the Forum performance was an early reimagining of “Star Spangled Banner,” which Jimi would canonize four months later at Woodstock. “Here’s a song we was all brainwashed with,” Jimi trenchantly declares, at a time when the nation was in a state of great political unrest. The group closed their performance with a unique, extraordinary medley of “Voodoo Child (Slight Return)” and Cream’s “Sunshine of Your Love.” The song was an Experience favorite and a perfect live vehicle for the trio’s unparalleled improvisational skill.

The Jimi Hendrix Experience – Los Angeles Forum: April 26, 1969 was recorded by Wally Heider and Bill Halverson contemporaneously, and recently remixed by longtime Hendrix producer/engineer Eddie Kramer for maximum audio fidelity. It was produced by Janie Hendrix, CEO of Experience Hendrix, L.L.C. and the sister of Jimi Hendrix, Kramer and John McDermott, who manages the Hendrix music catalog on behalf of Experience Hendrix. The package’s liner notes are by former LA Times staff writer/critic Randy Lewis with a preface by ZZ Top’s Billy Gibbons who attended the Hendrix Forum show, having toured with the Experience, as part of The Moving Sidewalks, his pre-ZZ Top band.

This pristine recording—available in its entirety for the very first time—newly mixed by Hendrix’s longtime engineer Eddie Kramer, captures the original Jimi Hendrix Experience in their unrivaled, peak form and is sourced directly from the original eight-track master tapes.

Brian Cadd - The Magic of Brian Cadd

Brian Cadd - The Magic of Brian Cadd - 1975

born 29 November 1949, Perth, Australia. As an organist, Cadd came to prominence in bands such as the Groop (1966-69) and Axiom (1969-71), the latter being touted as Australia’s first supergroup. In 1972, after returning from another unsuccessful attempt at the English market, he became a solo artist, following a brief spell as a duo with Don Mudie which resulted in the Australian hit single ‘Show Me The Way’. Cadd gradually built up his following with several piano-based singles and strong albums. Eventually he was secure enough to form his own label, Bootleg, on which he produced and nurtured several other acts. Cadd formed a house band, the Bootleg Band, which he used for recording, performing and touring. Meanwhile, Cadd’s solo albums continued to chart (his first two albums were Australia’s biggest-selling records in 1973), but his strength was his songwriting, which provided hits for various Australian acts. In the 80s he relocated to Los Angeles where he was successful in securing high-profile artists such as the Pointer Sisters and Gene Pitney to record his songs. In 1990 Cadd toured with Max Merrit And The Meteors and in 1991 he joined the line-up of the Flying Burrito Brothers. He sang on the albums Eye Of The Hurricane (1993) and Sons Of The Golden West (1999) and toured extensively with the group. In 1993 he recorded an album with old Axiom bandmate Glenn Shorrock. Cadd, who teaches and lectures in Australia, is also the co-owner of the Streetwise Music Group. In 2005, he released his first studio album in over 20 years.

The Pretty Things - Live at BBC - 2021

The Pretty Things - Live at BBC - 2021 (6 cds)

In the golden age of the British R&B revival, few groups created as much excitement and controversy as the Pretty Things. They came up alongside the Rolling Stones in the early 1960s, but were deemed by critics and fans as wilder and bluesier than even Mick Jagger & co. When long-haired Phil May sang and shook his maracas with manic intensity, audiences and record buyers knew they were in for a wild ride. But the Pretty Things took their music seriously and developed into one of the more innovative rock bands of the 70s, much admired by groups and artists from Led Zeppelin to David Bowie. As well as recording hit singles and albums, the Pretties were also heard live in action on BBC radio shows that captured their dynamic performances with remarkable clarity and presence. We are fortunate that this audio heritage has been carefully preserved and has now been digitally restored for future generations to enjoy. Repertoire is proud to present this comprehensive 6 CD collection that provides over seven hours of non-stop R&B, original songs and new concepts. Such seminal BBC shows as Saturday Club presented by DJ Brian Matthew and Top Gear by John Peel, who also hosted his own regular Sunday Concert, welcomed the band to their studios where they’d romp into everything from Pretty Thing favourites like ‘Big Boss Man’, ‘Road Runner’ and ‘Buzz The Jerk’ to the experimental ‘Defecting Grey’. Check out 1968’s ‘SF Sorrow Is Born’, an hypnotic and mysterious ri! that might well have in"uenced today’s groups like Kula Shaker. There is more broadcast material from the 1970s and even into the 2000s with BBC shows hosted by Mark Lamarr and Marc Riley that bring the band’s history up to date with vibrant versions of ‘Belfast Cowboys’, ‘Singapore Silk Torpedo’ and even a revival of their #rst hit single ‘Rosalyn’. This superb boxed set has informative liner notes by Richard Morton Jack, progressive rock historian and editor of Flashback magazine, and includes an interview with Phil May discussing the recordings. Repertoire’s Chris Welch also interviews founder member guitarist Dick Taylor, who reminisces about the early days of the Pretty Things and pays tribute to his old friend Phil May who sadly passed away in 2020.

Sweet Thursday - Sweet Thursday (Re-post)

Sweet Thursday - Sweet Thursday - 1969

Sweet Thursday foi uma banda inglesa de rock que uniu os talentos do pianista Nicky Hopkins (stones, who, beck e mais um milhão de bons artistas), Alun Davies (futuramente Cat Stevens) e Jon Mark (mais tarde Mark-Almond). Além destes, gravaram este solitário álbum com a colaboração do baterista Harvey Burns (Al Stewart, Cat Stevens, Shawn Phillips) e do baixista Brian Odgers, que tocou com gente do quilate de John McLaughlin, Lou Reed, Shawn Phillips e dezenas de outros.

Reza a lenda que a gravadora foi à falência pouco tempo depois do lancamento do LP ( em 1969, embora no selo do disco conste 1968), quando tinha colocado um pequeno número de cópias no mercado. Isso acabou tornado-o raro e fazendo existir uma grande quantidade de bootlegs (muitos de origem não muito confiáveis) circulando principalmente nos EUA.

Delaney Bramlett - Sounds From Home

Delaney Bramlett - Sounds From Home - 1998

From AMG

For whatever reason, Delaney Bramlett is a marginal figure on the music scene, a figure with a great and very influential past whose present is almost never acknowledged -- at least in America.

Sounds From Home is a case in point. The man who is responsible for virtually creating Eric Clapton's sound in the 1970s and bringing the great southern R&B traditions together with hard rock and rambling country-soul (how many records did Gram Parsons and Duane Allman appear on together? One: Delaney & Bonnie's Motel Shot in 1971) is creating some of the finest music in his life, when most of his contemporaries settled for far less artistically, though they have reaped far more material benefit and historical recognition (Clapton's musical laziness is a case in point).

The 12 tracks on Sounds From Home are steeped in the classic Delaney Bramlett style: plenty of grease, funk, grit, and soul with the texture of great country blues and spooky gospel tossed in. With ex-wife Kim Carmel, Bramlett created a vocal duo that is every bit as stirring and sensual as the one he had with Bonnie Bramlett. The charm is in the delivery, which is not charm at all, but pure emotion. While the record begins stomping on "Funky," with horns, a B-3, hand percussion, and the great arrangement style of Muscle Shoals, that is by no means the only ace up Bramlett's sleeve. "Free" is a love song that reveals every hairline fracture in the memory of the human heart. "Mississippi" evokes a hot, sweaty afternoon and breezy Southern nights and "Locked up in Alabama" has a wicked Robert Wilson bassline that acts as the foundation for a slippery, dark, steamy, funky track that is equal parts Staple Singers and Tony Joe White, but all Bramlett. 

Perhaps nowhere is that signature more prevalent than on an updated version of "Let It Rain" that Bramlett co-wrote with Clapton. Here the arrangement comes out of the Caribbean, complete with steel drums doing the fills and a virtual choir of backing vocalists that includes daughter Bekka. The vocal is pure heart, ringing through the singers and the band. Bramlett is calling down a rain so mighty it may even cleanse his own tortured heart. The set ends with the record's most heartbreaking track, "Brown Paper Bag," where Bramlett recounts the inability to recover from lost love or to quit carrying it around: "There's a brown paper bag holding all of my dreams/That brown paper bag isn't what it seems/When my life comes apart and the pieces fall/I've got a brown paper bag where I put them all." The strings swell, but not enough to cover a vocal that contains searing truth in every syllable. As the track winds out and disappears, there is only the hint of a whisper at its end, a seam that lies open just a fraction -- barely visible, but nonetheless inviting the listener to consider all that has taken place these past 45 minutes. In sum, it seems so simple, almost unnoticeable, until we realize that Sounds From Home is the truth of a man's life presented in the only way he knows how to relate it. 

And it's more than good enough -- it is necessary and instructive and burning with the brokenness that only true compassion provides. It's the kind of album we need in a dark and confusing time, and one that we can learn from as well as take comfort in for decades to come. Delaney Bramlett isn't back; he never left. For those who love his music as a soundtrack of rhythm and color in their lives, Sounds From Home is a kind and weathered voice that has been out in the storm of life for a long while, but has come home to tell its stories.

Although his popularity was often eclipsed by the artists he mentored, Delaney Bramlett was an accomplished guitarist and singer/songwriter whose style influenced the likes of Eric Clapton, J.J. Cale, and Duane Allman. A native of Pontotoc, MS, he served time in the U.S. Navy before moving to Los Angeles in 1959. He soon became a member of the Shindogs, the resident band on the TV show Shindig. Such a job allowed Bramlett to rub shoulders with other notable musicians, and in 1967 he met Bonnie Lynn O'Farrell, a member of Ike & Tina Turner's backup group the Ikettes. The two were married within five days; they also formed a duo named Delaney & Bonnie. Read More HERE

1975's Jimmy Bowen produced "Giving Birth To A Song" marked Delaney Bramlett's third solo album (and his third label in as many years).  Credited as 'Delaney and Blue Diamond' the album found Bramlett returning to the confines of a full fledged band.  Musically the set wasn't a major departure from his standing soul/rock moves.

Tommy Bolin and Friends - Great Gypsy Soul

Tommy Bolin and Friends - Great Gypsy Soul - 2012

Bolin was a revered '70s-era rock-jazz-funk guitarist, singer and songwriter who toured and recorded with both Deep Purple and the James Gang, made two remarkable solo albums and played on influential fusion sessions for Billy Cobham and Alphonse Mouzon. This, he accomplished by the time he was 25, when he died of a drug overdose.

Thirty-six years later, co-producers Haynes and Greg Hampton use some of Bolin's working tapes and outtakes as the foundation over which some of today's hottest ax men play.

The mixes can be a little rough, and the graft doesn't always bear fruit. But when it does, the results are explosive. Trucks especially tears it up on the fusion excursion "Smooth Fandango," and Haynes adds some nice Bolin-style sonic touches to "Teaser." The most delicious track is "Savannah Woman," on which jazz maestro John Scofield's elegant licks perfectly complement the number's breezy tropical vibe.

Bolin's original vocals remain on most of the tracks. But former Deep Purple bassist Glenn Hughes howls convincingly on "Sugar Shack" and "Lotus."

The Undisputed Truth - The Undisputed Truth

The Undisputed Truth - The Undisputed Truth - 1971

The Undisputed Truth – vocalists Joe Harris, Billie Rae Calvin and Brenda Joyce – are often seen as little more than a footnote in Motown’s illustrious history. They remain a name purely for the fact that they worked alongside producer and writer Norman Whitfield in his era of dominance at the label as it grew more adult-orientated and socially aware.

And there is every reason for that thought: Whitfield actually formed the group as an experiment, speculating that he could produce an act from nowhere and garner a hit record. While it is true that the producer often used the group as a test bed for material for his other major act, The Temptations, it should not be assumed The Undisputed Truth did not have their own character and not inconsiderable bite.

Although their self-titled debut album only contained one song specifically written by Whitfield for it, it is a beautiful, transitional record. There is much that would be considered traditional Motown. For example, there is the great, conventional soul of Save My Love for a Rainy Day, a cover of The Temptations. If the sweet northern soul stomper You Got the Love I Need sounds dated, it’s because it utilises a backing track originally cut in 1965.

But it was not all some ragbag of off-cuts. Something darker was at work, pointing toward the direction that the group would fully embrace over their next few albums – lengthy, mysterious workouts, with the girls’ sweet harmonies and chorus sweetening the grit of Harris’ vocal delivery. Covers of California Soul and an extended Ball of Confusion (with plenty of in-era “right on!”s), as well as Bob Dylan’s Like a Rolling Stone, underlined Whitfield’s desire to meddle with convention.

Smiling Faces Sometimes, another song cut by The Temptations, provided the trio with their biggest US hit, reaching number three on the chart. Its dense production and finger-pointing lyrics chimed perfectly with the suspicion and paranoia of the age.

Although The Undisputed Truth didn’t actually have a hit in the UK until 1977, with You + Me+ Love, they became something of a connoisseur’s choice. And this debut album, although at times tentative and flawed, hints at how they would later develop.

John Hurlbut & Jorma Kaukonen - The River Flows Vol. 1 & 2 The Complete Sessions

John Hurlbut & Jorma Kaukonen - The River Flows  Vol. 1 & 2 The Complete Sessions - 2021

The River Flows Vol. 1 & 2 / The Complete Sessions, is a CD package with 8 live tracks recorded at Kaukonen’s Quarantine Concert Series as a bonus disc.

Kaukonen is the singer-songwriter and guitarist who was a founding member of Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna, with whom he continues to perform with bassist Jack Casady. The River Flows was produced by Justin Guip, three-time Grammy winner and Hot Tuna drummer.

Guitarist John Hurlbut belatedly found a new audience for his music when he happened to start making music with one of his heroes. A fan of vintage psychedelic rock and acoustic roots music, the Ohio-based picker had been playing for decades when his visibility took off, thanks to his work with former Jefferson Airplane guitarist and Hot Tuna founder Jorma Kaukonen. Playing rhythm to Kaukonen's leads, Hurlbut's style is straightforward but expressive, charting clean melodic lines for Kaukonen to embellish, and his warm, slightly weather-beaten vocals give life to the rock and folk standards that dominate their performances.

VA - Song Of a Young Country (The New Zeland Story in Song)

VA - Song Of a Young Country (The New Zeland Story in Song) - 1971 (RE 2010)

FROM www.audioculture.co.nz 

In 1971 singer, composer and folksong collector Neil Colquhoun released a concept album of songs by – or re-creating the experience of – the Pakeha pioneers of the 19th century. Among the writers were Colquhoun, Phil Garland, Rudy Sunde and many by unknown early settlers, collected in the 1960s. The multi-artist double LP on Kiwi Pacific Records received renewed attention in 2009 when it was included by Nick Bollinger in his 2009 book 100 Essential New Zealand Albums (Awa). 

The 1971 album was followed a year later by an accompanying songbook, Song of a Young Country (Reed); this was re-released in 2010, in a lavish production by Steele Roberts.

Whether sung, played, read or listened to, the songs in this influential New Zealand folksong compilation and songbook provide insight and human colour to the bare facts of our collective past.

Music and vocalising have been in fluid evolution ever since the first humans slapped a leathery foot on a hollow rock, knocked a tree with a stick and it made a pleasing sound, or mimicked the cadences of birdsong and the rutting noises of animals to attract them on a hunt.

Millennia on from then, there are multiple music styles and labels. Folk music is one of many. This has been blending, hybridising or diverging since Woody Guthrie sang about the Depression and since the folk revival of the sixties when Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell and Bob Dylan sang out in protest; when civil rights marchers chorused aching spirituals about injustice, and since Odetta or Buffy Sainte-Marie told it like it was.

The 2010 reissue of the Song of a Young Country anthology

In New Zealand, folk clubs around the country host the works, from bluegrass, American urban blues, old-time country and Celtic stylists to Euro gypsy jazz, jug bands, a cappella harmony groups and soloists playing covers and originals.

The clubs also have a solid core of traditionalists who enjoy what they consider the “real” Kiwi folk music; that is, the songs, sea shanties, old ballads and work chants sung or recited by the people at the birth of these islands as a Treaty-formalised Crown-Māori nation. They were the sailors, sealers, wives and whalers, adventurers, bushmen and the like, who sang out their joy, humour, or misery during their hard-slog work and after hours; about bully bosses and fair blokes, madams and murderers, hardships underground and weird happenings above; about social milestones, triumphs, shipwrecks and other disasters.

Fred van Zegveld - Dynamite

Fred van Zegveld - Dynamite - 1969

Fred van Zegveld became known as the organ player of a charting Beatlesque group called Roek Williams & The Fighting Cats, though they changed their name into Roek's Family on the day Fred joined them in 1968, ready for their biggest hit Get Yourself A Ticket in '69.

1969 must have been a busy year for him, because Van Zegveld was also a member of a group called The Flood that year, together with two musicians that also played in Roek Williams's group: Richard de Bois on bass (who became a top producer ten years later, for amongst others The Dolly Dots) and Will Luikinga on sax and flute (who became a famous dj on Radio Veronica afterwards).

Van Zegveld's only solo album "Dynamite" shows his love for Booker T & The MG's, Jimmy Smith and such, though most of the tracks on it are his own compositions.

2nd Vision - Firsts Steps (REPOST)

2nd Vision - Firsts Steps - 1980
 
from wikipedia

2nd Vision was a British jazz-rock band notable for including guitarist John Etheridge and violinist Ric Sanders, both former members of Soft Machine. It released the album First Steps, which has been re-released on Blueprint Records (Voiceprint Group) in 2006.

The roots of 2nd Vision were sown in 1977 when Sanders invited keyboard player Dave Bristow and drummer Mickey Barker, both of whom he'd already played with in his Birmingham days, to form an improvising unit named Surrounding Silence, which debuted at the Riverside Jazz Festival in August 1977.

After Etheridge and ex-Gryphon bassist Jonathan Davie joined them, the band, renamed 20/20 Vision, played a well-received gig at the Alexandra Palace in May 1979. The band were offered a management deal by Jo Lustig, who had already represented the likes of Richard Thompson, Pentangle and the Chieftains, and signed with Chrysalis, recording their debut LP in the autumn of 1979, with John Cameron producing. The material was composed by either Sanders or Bristow, with Etheridge contributing one piece, a new version of his Soft Machine solo acoustic guitar piece "Etika".

"It was a jazz-rock group, in the mould of Weather Report, Mahavishnu, that kind of things", Etheridge remembered. "The one album we made was a very good record. It sounds dated now of course, because it was done using the Yamaha CS-80... But of all the records that I've made, it's the one that the most trouble was taken over making. I was very pleased with the guitar on it, we took a lot of time to do it. I was quite happy with that... But this was in the late 70's, so it was all punk and new-wave...".

The album was launched with a four-night residency at London's Riverside Studios in Hammersmith on May 7–10, 1980, with a different guest (Richard Thompson, Gordon Giltrap, Jethro Tull's David Palmer, June Tabor) joining the band each night. Unfortunately, all the British music papers went on strike for several weeks, so there was almost no coverage of the event, and the album failed to sell.

Mountain - Official Live Mountain Bootleg Series - Volume 16 - 2006 (Re-Post)

Mountain - Official Live Mountain Bootleg Series - Volume 16 - 2006

The performances contained on the Mountain Bootleg Series are drawn from various stages of the bands career from the very early years when the band first formed through to recent gigs undertaken by the band. All the performances come from the personal archives of both Leslie West and Corky Laing and whilst some of the performances are not sonically perfect the quality of the performances are never in question and as Corky Laing says “Some of the performances are real interesting”. I couldn’t have said it better myself.

This is the latest release in the ongoing Mountain Official Bootleg Series and was recorded in Arizona in 1982. At this time in the bands history the band were re establishing themselves o the American touring circuit and the set list is geared to reminding the audience what a potent live force the band were. The set list contains the Mountain classics Nantucket Sleighride, Mississippi Queen and also a cover of the Rolling Stones song Honky Tonk Women which Leslie West had covered for his Great Fatsby album in the 1970’s whilst the band was between record deals. The performance does however contain the Mountain classics including Nantucket Sleighride and Mississippi Queen.
