Keith Richards, de jongste van de oorspronkelijke bandleden, werd geboren in december 1943, op de dag dat de Mills Brothers de Amerikaanse hitlijsten aanvoerden; ze waren de eerste Afro- Amerikaanse artiesten aan wie die eer ten deel viel na de lancering van de eerste officiële Billboard-lijst in januari 1940. Het Verenigd Koninkrijk moest nog bijna dertien jaar wachten voordat de New Musical Express de eerste ‘singleslijst’ publiceerde. Mick Jagger is vijf maanden ouder dan Keith en werd in juli 1943 geboren, op de dag dat de geallieerden Palermo veroverden op het eiland Sicilië, de bakermat van de familie van Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin en Frankie Laine. Van de originele leden was Brian Jones de middelste qua leeftijd; hij werd geboren in februari 1942, een periode waarin de oorlog slecht verliep voor de geallieerden in het Verre Oosten na de Japanse inname van Singapore.

While the band's current approach is well-suited to its arena level of popularity, its calculation has replaced the edge of maniacism and sense of humor that by John Swenson the group once stood for. Even though they've progressed individually as musicians, it may well be that ACIDC have lost the identity AC/DC salute the British blues with which the late lead singer Bon Scott infused them. Stewart returns to classic form Rush - Exit... Stage Left (Mercury) At first glance this album may seem like just another Christmas-time live two-record package. But Exit .. Stage Left represents the coming of age of Canada's greatest band and one of the finest heavy-metal outfits to come out of the '70s proliferation of that style. The difference between this record and the first Rush live LP , All the World's a Stage, shows just how far the band has come in the last few years. Stage was an energetic but somewhat leaden account of the band's live strengths at a time when the members of Rush will now freely admit they were struggling. The sound quality of that first live record disappointed them, but the record consolidated their audience at a crucial point and gave them breathing space to come up with a fresh approach to their sound, which proved to be the turning point in A C/DC bang out quivering blues that serve as vehicles for Angus Young's Rush's career.

  • Read an Extract
    1964 FIRED by his live experiences with The Konrads and searching for an escape from his ad agency job, David resolves to make a go of music with George Underwood. David is the focal point on vocals and saxophone when they form The King Bees with three older musicians, playing hard-edged R&B. A cheeky appeal for financial backing to magnate John Bloom results in contact with agent/manager Leslie Conn, who also handles another unknown, Marc Bolan. Conn signs a deal with Decca for a single, ‘Liza Jane’, with ‘Louie, Louie Go Home’ on the B-side. David leaves his day job and becomes a fully fledged professional musician. Promotion for the single includes an appearance on Ready Steady Go! and BBC TV’s The Beat Room, with David also playing saxophone. The failure of ‘Liza Jane’ to chart leads to the disbandment of The King Bees. Conn has already hooked David up with The Manish Boys from Kent, though tensions arise over billing and David finds himself shuttling between Bromley and their base in Maidstone. Davie Jones & The Manish Boys play R&B venues all over south-east England but struggle to make an impact. David makes his first appearance at Soho club the Marquee, which will become a significant venue in his life. He also meets girlfriend Dana Gillespie there. In an attempt to create a stir, David forms The Society ANY DAY NOW l DAVID BOWIE l THE LONDON YEARS NOW l DAVID ANY DAY For The Prevention Of Cruelty To Long-Haired Men, again appearing on national TV.

    CLASSIC ROCK ROCK OF AGES JÖRGEN ANGEL doesn’t need to tell you stories to earn your respect. All he needs to do is show you 50,000 photographs of the biggest rock acts the world has ever known. The Dane, who photographed Led Zeppelin’s first ever jam, talks to Jaideep V.G. about classic rock and the time Angus Young dropped his pants. eptember 7, 1968 was a Saturday and Jörgen Angel was a Jaideep V.G.: Your first pictures were of Sonny and Cher.

My colleague and fellow scribe Tony Wilson had secured the precious black vinyl LP and dropped it onto the turntable, awaiting my reaction. We were immediately transfixed by the brash, bold sounds that fought their way out of the lo- fi speakers – Robert Plant’s screaming vocals, the eerie Hammond organ sounds of John Paul Jones, and Jimmy Page’s supreme guitar mastery. But amid the kaleidoscope of impressions, the drums were the primary element that set pulses racing. We marveled at the sheer audacity, the sense of authority, the spatial awareness present on every track. Within moments, John Bonham’s cataclysmic bass drum triplets and roaring snare rolls had signaled a new era of rock drumming. The first time I saw Bonham up close was in December 1968, at The Marquee Club on Soho’s Wardour Street. While The Marquee has long held a mythical status in the rich history of the London rock scene – hosting early appearances by such legendary bands as The Who and The Rolling Stones – it was actually a dark and rather cramped facility with a tiny stage that fronted an even stuffier dressing room.

ABSTRACT This thesis investigates the moment of discovery of educational alternatives and in particular contemporary discovery of elective home education by parents and other adults in England. The discussion highlights an empirical and theoretical context for this discovery. Questions involve whether there is a moment of ontological conversion in the self of people discovering another way of educating from mainstream authoritarian schooling. The research data presented suggests that a moment of ‘gestalt switch’ conversion exists between what can be called different ‘worlds’ of education, following Thomas S. Kuhn’s framework of scientific discovery.
