Adam Green ya està grabando su próximo cd y estas navidades "visitó" a James brown cuando le trajeron al ApolloJan 16 2007 08:34
Subject A New Years Message
Body: Happy new years amigosI started recording a new album last week... we've done 7 songs I
hope u likee
Been DJ'ing at heathers bar with Turner Cody on monday nights
its on 13th between A and B come if you want that's tonight
playing the Monster Mash at midnightThe holidays were painless... we had a christmas tree and all that
As you know James Brown died on christmasI was thinking about it so much that I went to visit his body at the
apollo theater. The wait on the line was 5 hours... But time passed
quickly as everyone was very chillthey had his body laid out on the stage
and Reverand Al was standing next to the casket
Which was sort of distractingI said some words to his body
I can't recommend him enough... His live at the apollo album from 1962
is absolutely the greatest
In his lifetime he was blessed with boundless energy and a throat of
titanium
which allowed him to shred his voice night after nightIf you look at his discography on allmusic.com you'll find that he released
over 80 albums in his lifetime and as many as 4 or 5 a year. In fact he
released
over thirty albums in his first ten years recording.His moniker as the hardest working man in showbusiness is certainly deserved
and he has been an inspiration to me since I started playing with the moldy
peachesBy the way I'm doing a free concert at the sidewalk cafe on Feb. 18th
I think its gonna be solo acousticI hope you this finds you well
and here's to another album

Alice Coltrane, 69; performer, composer of jazz and New Age music; spiritual leader
Alice Coltrane, the jazz performer and composer who was inextricably linked with the adventurous musical improvisations of her late husband, legendary saxophonist John Coltrane, has died. She was 69.
Coltrane died Friday at West Hills Hospital and Medical Center in West Hills, according to an announcement from the family's publicist. She had been in frail health for some time and died of respiratory failure.
Though known to many for her contributions to jazz and early New Age music, Coltrane, a convert to Hinduism, was also a significant spiritual leader and founded the Vedantic Center, a spiritual commune now located in Agoura Hills. A guru of growing repute, she also served as the swami of the San Fernando Valley's first Hindu temple, in Chatsworth.
For much of the last nearly 40 years, she was also the keeper of her husband's musical legacy, managing his archive and estate. Her husband, one of the pivotal figures in the history of jazz, died of liver disease July 17, 1967, at the age of 40.
A pianist and organist, Alice Coltrane was noted for her astral compositions and for bringing the harp onto the jazz bandstand. Her last performances came in the fall, when she participated in an abbreviated tour that included stops in New York and San Francisco, playing with her saxophonist son, Ravi.
She was born Alice McLeod in Detroit on Aug. 27, 1937, into a family with deep musical roots. Anna, her mother, sang and played piano in the Baptist church choir. Alice's half brother Ernie Farrow was a bassist who played professionally with groups led by saxophonist Yusef Lateef and vibes player Terry Gibbs.
Alice began her musical education at age 7, learning classical piano. Her early musical career included performances in church groups as well as in top-flight jazz ensembles led by Lateef, guitarist Kenny Burrell and saxophonist Lucky Thompson.
After studying jazz piano briefly in Paris, she moved to New York and joined Gibbs' quartet.
"As fascinating — and influential — as her later music was, it tended to obscure the fact that she had started out as a solid, bebop-oriented pianist," critic Don Heckman told The Times on Saturday. "I remember hearing, and jamming with, her in the early '60s at photographer W. Eugene Smith's loft in Manhattan. At that time she played with a brisk, rhythmic style immediately reminiscent of Bud Powell.
"Like a few other people who'd heard her either at the loft or during her early '60s gigs with Terry Gibbs, I kept hoping she'd take at least one more foray into the bebop style she played so well," he said.
She met her future husband in 1963 while playing an engagement with Gibbs' group at Birdland in New York City.
"He saw something in her that was beautiful," Gibbs, who has often taken credit for introducing the two, told The Times on Saturday. "They were both very shy in a way. It was beautiful to see them fall in love."
Gibbs called her "the nicest person I ever worked with. She was a real lady."
She left Gibbs' band to marry Coltrane and began performing with his band in the mid-1960s, replacing pianist McCoy Tyner. She developed a style noted for its power and freedom and played tour dates with Coltrane's group in San Francisco, New York and Tokyo.
She would say her husband's musical impact was enormous.
"John showed me how to play fully," she told interviewer Pauline Rivelli and Robert Levin in comments published in "The Black Giants."
"In other words, he'd teach me not to stay in one spot and play in one chord pattern. 'Branch out, open up … play your instrument entirely.' … John not only taught me how to explore, but to play thoroughly and completely."
After his death, she devoted herself to raising their children. Musically, she continued to play within his creative vision, surrounding herself with such like-minded performers as saxophonists Pharoah Sanders and Joe Henderson.
Early albums under her name, including "A Monastic Trio," and "Ptah the El Daoud," were greeted with critical praise for her compositions and playing. "Ptah the El Daoud" featured her sweeping harp flourishes, a sound not commonly heard in jazz recordings. Her last recording, "Translinear Light," came in 2004. It was her first jazz album in 26 years.
Through the 1970s, she continued to explore Eastern religions, traveling to India to study with Swami Satchidananda, the founder of the Integral Yoga Institute.
Upon her return she started a store-front ashram in San Francisco but soon moved it to Woodland Hills in 1975. Located in the Santa Monica Mountains since the early 1980s, the ashram is a 48-acre compound where devotees concentrate on prayer and meditation.
Known within her religious community by her Sanskrit name, Turiyasangitananda, Coltrane focused for much of the last 25 years on composing and recording devotional music such as Hindu chants, hymns and melodies for meditation. She also wrote books, including "Monumental Ethernal," a kind of spiritual biography, and "Endless Wisdom," which she once told a Times reporter contained hundreds of scriptures divinely revealed to her.
In 2001 she helped found the John Coltrane Foundation to encourage jazz performances and award scholarships to young musicians.
In addition to Ravi, she is survived by another son, Oren, who plays guitar and alto sax; a daughter, Michelle, who is a singer; and five grandchildren. Her son John Coltrane Jr. died in an automobile accident in 1982.

_Bright Eyes, o la unión hace la fuerza
Parece que Conor Oberts ha aprendido la lección. La publicación de dos discos claramente diferenciados en 2005, “I’m Awake, It’s Morning” y “Digital Ash In A Digital Urn”, el primero dando salida a su cara más tradicionalista (sobresalientes duetos con Emmylou Harris incluidos) y el segundo a la más experimental, no acabó de funcionar. Desequilibrio. Uno era bueno, bien bueno, y el otro era frustrante, respectivamente. Sus directos también padecieron esa división entre Dr. Jekyll y Mr. Hyde. Solución: juntar en un solo álbum sus dos facetas y darle una coherencia interna al asunto. Ese es el objetivo de “Cassadaga”, su próximo trabajo, que verá la luz el 9 de abril. Antes, el 6 de marzo, pondrá a la venta un EP de seis temas, donde sólo una canción, “Four Winds”, podrá escucharse después en el citado disco. Los otros cinco cortes -en uno de los cuales colabora M Ward- son las caras B que escenifican el puente musical que ha cruzado para dejar de ser quien era el 2005 y ser quien es en 2007._

THE STOOGES PUBLICAN THE WEIRDNESS
SU PRIMER ÁLBUM EN 33 AÑOS, SALE EL 5 DE MARZO DE 2007.El 5 de marzo de 2007, la banda que surgió antes que el punk y ayudó a hacer peligroso el rock & roll, publicará su primer álbum de estudio desde el seminal Raw Power de 1973. The Weirdness incluye a tres de los cuatro miembros originales de la banda – el cantante Iggy Pop; el guitarrista Ron Asheton y el batería Scott Asheton – junto al bajista ex-Minutemen y Firehose, Mike Watt y el saxofonista original de los Stooges, Steve Mackay.
The Stooges escribieron más de 30 canciones para el disco en una casa de campo en Florida a principios de año, luego ensayaron en Ann Arbor, Michigan antes de entrar en los estudios de Chicago del estimado productor Steve Albini (Nirvana, Pixies) a principios de octubre. El álbum se está masterizando en el Reino Unido en los legendarios Abbey Road Studios. Los temas del álbum incluyen: "Trollin'", "Greedy Awful People", "Claustrophobia", "Mexican Guy", "I'm Fried", "ATM", "O Solo Mio", "She Took My Money" y "End Of Christianity."

Qué buena pinta el nuevo lanzamiento del sello Labrador; por 22 euros (gastos de envío incluidos), 4Cds con 100 canciones, celebrando las 100 referencias con las que cuentan ya (una canción por banda).

Sí, pero ¿estos gastos de envío también son para España? Cuesta un poco de creer que te envíen de Suecia a España una caja de cuatro cedeles por 22 euros. Por muy malos que sean.

Según parece sí, el único requisito en el caso de pedidos fuera de Suecia es hacerlo vía PayPal. Como destaca la web:

Seguramente mucha gente se sentirá poco afectada por esto, pero agradezco a Murnau que comentase lo antes posible esta muy mala noticia.
'California dreaming' es una de mis canciones favoritas de todos los tiempos. Sobretodo la versión maqueta de 1964 y que gracias a la red descubrí.
Por desgracia a través de esta noticia estoy descubriendo otras propuestas anteriores a Mamas & The Papas que hasta fecha de hoy no había tenido en cuenta.
Cass Elliot y John Phillips eran muy Cass Elliot y John Phillips pero este canadiense les seguía bien de cerca. -
