Scorpions-Songs Neu Interpretiert Uli Jon Roth Bringt Solo-Album Im MZ Auf Die Bühne Mit Neuinterpretationen von Songs aus seiner Zeit bei den Scorpions tritt Uli Jon Roth im Hebst in Hannover im MusikZentrum auf. Scorpions-Songs neu interpretiert Uli Jon Roth bringt Solo-Album im MZ auf die Bühne 12. März 2015, Von: Redaktion, Foto(s): Promo-/Pressefreigabe Zwischen 1973 und 1978 war der Gitarrist Uli Jon Roth bei den hannoverschen Hardrock- Größen Scorpions aktiv. Auf einigen Alben aus dieser Ära befinden sich auch zahlreiche Kompositionen des weltweit einflussreichen Rock-und Fusion-Musikers. Mit „Scorpions Revisited“ hat er kürzlich ein Solo-Album mit Neuinterpretationen einiger Scorpions- Songs veröffentlicht. Im Oktober wird Roth damit in Hannover im MusikZentrum auftreten. Bei den Scorpions war der virtuose und innovative Musiker nicht nur als Gitarrist aktiv, zahlreiche Songs aus den Alben, die, die Band zwischen 1973 und 1978 herausbrachte, stammen aus seiner Feder oder wurden von ihm mitkomponiert. Dazu zählen neben „In Trance“ und „Virgin Killer“, bei denen er als Songwriter in besonders starkem Maße beteiligt war, auch „Fly To The Rainbow“ und „Taken By Force“. Vor rund zwei Jahren, als Uli Jon Roth in Erinnerungen an seine Zeit bei der weltweit erfolgreichen Hardrock-Band aus Hannover schwelgte, kam ihm die Idee, ein Solo-Album mit Neuinterpretationen von seinen Lieblingssongs aus seiner Zeit bei den Scorpions zu produzieren. Die Doppel-CD „Scorpions Revisited“ wurde live in Hannover aufgenommen. Wenn Uli Jon Roth am 9.Oktober in Hannover im MusikZentrum auftritt, stehen diese Neuinterpretationen von Scorpions-Songs im Mittelpunkt, es ist aber davon auszugehen, dass der als besonders einfallsreich, gefühlvoll und filigran agierende Gitarrist noch einige weitere 12. März 2015 1/2 © Rockszene.de 2021 Spezialitäten für ein vermutlich zahlreich anwesendes Publikum bereit hält. Uli Jon Roth ist auch dafür bekannt, als Gitarrist und dabei vor allem mit der von ihm entwickelten „Sky Guitar“, auf einzigartige Weise Rock mit klassischer Musik zu verbinden. Der Vorverkauf für das Konzert mit dem Gitarren-Meister am 9.Oktober im MusikZentrum hat begonnen.

The 10 years of success and innovation that Blackstar has enjoyed, however, put the lie to that idea. I remember visiting Blackstar’s factory a few years ago and being shown a prototype of an ID:Core amplifier and wondering how on earth they’d gotten such a huge, room-filling sound out of such a small box. When they then told me that the amp was going to sell for the price of an effects pedal, it gave me an acute attack of what I now recognise as the Blackstar ‘Wow’ effect .

  • Sky Guitar" Instruments Hand-Made; Each Authenticated and Signed by Roth
    17th Street Guitars Page 1 of 3 17th STREET GUITARS INKS EXCLUSIVE DEAL WITH LEGENDARY VIRTUOSO GUITARIST ULI JON ROTH 50 Limited Edition "Sky Guitar" Instruments Hand-Made; Each Authenticated and Signed by Roth SANTA MONICA, CA - September 28, 2004 - 17th Street Guitars, an exciting new manufacturer of electric guitars and basses, announces its exclusive deal to build Uli Jon Roth’s illustrious “Sky Guitar.” Designed by the artist himself and perfected via several prototypes by Greek-born master luthier Andreas Demetriou in England, only 50 “Sky Guitar” instruments will be hand-made for distribution. The legendary guitarist awarded the license exclusively to 17th Street Guitars to craft his “Sky Guitar” because of the company’s commitment to building instruments to the highest possible standard. U.J. Roth will personally test each “Sky Guitar” before its release. Ever since its first prototype 21 years ago, the Sky Guitar was hailed as a revolutionary design in more ways than one. The Sky Guitar was the first of its kind, which incorporated a significant number of extra frets, and was probably the first 7- string electric guitar built out of necessity. The unique and aesthetically pleasing body shape makes it possible to play top notes which equal the register of a violin, something which was unthinkable for the conventional guitar beforehand. Roth makes frequent use of this extraordinary feature, which enables him to play complete classical violin concertos, such as Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, without having to transpose a single note. A further vital component in the equation is the integrated, built-in ‘Mega-Wing’ pick-up system.

  • Concert for Streetdogs – the Very First!
    Concert for Streetdogs – the very first! In Lisbon (Portugal) there is going to take place the very first charity concert for streetdogs (February 9th, 2019). The entire revenues are donated to neglected, hurt and maltreated dogs. Famous musicians from Germany as well as Portugal support this project looking forward to an unforgettable “Rock 'n Flamenco” eve that is hardly topped with respect to its exclusiveness and intimacy. The concert is led by the exceptional musician on the guitar named Uli Jon Roth (Scorpions / Electric Sun et al). No doubt that Roth belongs to the most popular guitar players in the world being able to shape with his style the first lp's of the Scorpions and besides, influencing a variety of other grand musicians worldwide. He was on stage with many of the well-known rock- dinosaurs (e.g. Deep Purple, Smashing Pumpkins or Robby Krieger (The Doors)) and in 2018 he again has been on tour with 'G3-Tour' – for the third time – a changing format sending the three very best guitar players around the globe. “Either you have a very good heart or you are totally crazy. Doesn't matter, Here I am!” Uli Jon Roth spontaneously commented on our request to support and actively engage in our project. The guitar player himself is very much into animals and for the early times with Scorpions a confessing vegetarian. Visitors of the concert look forward to a musical journey through the different stages of Roth's creative phases. Still, beyond songs from his time with Scorpions and Electric Sun he plays unique Flamenco elements as well.

  • Grobkonzept Scorpions-Ausstellung
    Grobkonzept Scorpions-Ausstellung „Die Scorpions – Rock You Like A Hurricane“ (Arbeitstitel) Die Scorpions – eine deutsche Band – , die kaum einen Superlativ ausgelassen hat. Bereits Ende der 1960er planen sie eine internationale Karriere, die ihnen auch nicht verwehrt werden sollte. Sie haben alles gesehen und erlebt, was das Rockbusiness zu bieten hat. Mit dem Smash-Hit „Wind Of Change“ eroberten sie sich nicht nur die Charts der Welt, sondern machten sich auch mit einem Eintrag in die Geschichtsbücher unsterblich. Nun neigt sich ihre unvergleichliche Karriere dem Ende zu. Mit einer Tournee um den Globus begeben sie sich ein letztes Mal auf den Weg, den Spirit zu verbreiten, der sie als Band ganz nach oben geführt hat: Fünf Freunde rocken für eine freie Welt. Damit bieten die Scorpions umfangreiches Material für eine Sonderausstellung, die sowohl hinter die glitzernden Kulissen schauen als auch den Hauch des Historischen spüren lässt. Das Drehbuch der Ausstellung schreibt die Bandbiografie. Auf einer Fläche von 800 qm zeigt das rock’n’popmuseum den Weg von einer Hannoveraner Band an die Spitze des internationalen Rock’n’Roll. Zum Exponat-Bestand zählen jegliche Dokumentationen der Bandgeschichte: eine komplette Diskografie, Bühnenkleidung, Instrumente, Verträge, sonstiger Schriftverkehr, Bühnenbaupläne, Song-Texte, Preise bzw. Ehrungen (Gold-Awards, Echo etc.), Backstage- Fotografien/Filmaufnahmen, Filmmitschnitte von Konzerten, Plakate usw: Die Begrüßungsfanfare Die Begrüßung und emotionale Einstimmung übernimmt die Sound- und Lichtinstallation „Please welcome – The Scorpions“. In der abgedunkelten Zugangsschleuse zum Ausstellungsraum ist gedämpfter Publikumsjubel wahrnehmbar, vergleichbar dem Gang zur Bühne. Nach der Öffnung der zweiten Tür wird der Besucher von einem Blitzlichtergewitter empfangen, das akustisch unterstützt wird von aufbrandendem Publikumsjubel und der Ankündigung „Please welcome - the Scorpions“ (vielleicht von Rudolf Schenker gesprochen).

  • Master of Puppets”—Metallica (1986) Added to the National Registry: 2015 Essay by Daniel Bukszpan (Guest Post)*
    “Master of Puppets”—Metallica (1986) Added to the National Registry: 2015 Essay by Daniel Bukszpan (guest post)* Album cover Album label Metallica “Master of Puppets” is the third full-length album from San Francisco’s Metallica. It was released in 1986, and it’s hard to overstate the significance that it had upon its release, as well as its continued relevance today. Formed in 1981 by drummer Lars Ulrich and guitarist and vocalist James Hetfield, Metallica is one of the most popular bands in the world. Its self-titled 1991 album was certified platinum 16 times over by the Recording Industry Association of America, and the band has sold overall 125 million albums. However, before any of that happened, Metallica was about as underground as it got, and the idea of them achieving their current commercial status was once inconceivable. “Master of Puppets” changed all that and, at the same time, broke the thrash metal movement wide open for mainstream acceptance. Metallica stood at the forefront of the 1980s thrash metal scene, a commercially unpalatable genre that alienated most mainstream listeners, many of whom didn’t even recognize it as music. The songs were too complex, the tempos were too fast and the guitars were too bludgeoning. From the first listen, you were either on board or you weren’t. The band’s two previous albums were influenced by the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM), personified by bands like Motorhead, which stressed fast tempos and unpolished production. Metallica took that sound on the road and built their following through relentless touring, finally gaining enough notice to be signed to a major label, Elektra Records.
