BORDELLO RECORDS Renowned Texas songwriter/Americana hero returns with lean ’n’ mean follow-up to 2012’s triumphant The Grifter’s Hymnal; album soon to be followed by his uproarious, hair-raising autobiography,! A Life … Well, Lived. Co-produced by Hubbard and bassist George Reiff, The Ruffian’s Misfortune showcases Hubbard’s bluesy slide alongside the twin guitar leads ! of Gabe Rhodes and Hubbard’s son, Lucas WIMBERLEY, Texas — When it comes to down ’n’ dirty roots ’n’ roll, nobody in the wide world of Americana music today does it better than Ray Wylie Hubbard. Except, it seems, for Hubbard himself. After riding a decade-long career resurgence into the national spotlight with 2012’s acclaimed The Grifter’s Hymnal and his first ever appearance on the Late Show With David Letterman (“I didn’t want to peak too soon,” quips Hubbard, 68), the iconoclastic Texas songwriter is back to continue his hot streak with The Ruffian’s Misfortune — his 16th album !(and third on his own Bordello Records, via Thirty Tigers) — due out April 7, 2015. From his humble beginnings as an Oklahoma folkie in the ’60s to his wild ride through the ’70s progressive country movement, and onward through the honky-tonk fog of the ’80s to his sobriety-empowered comeback as a songwriter’s songwriter in the ’90s, Hubbard was already a bona fide legend by the time he really found his groove right at the turn of the century.

He’s built the show into a family favourite and was thrilled to be honoured in Her Majesty’s New Year Honours list for his ’Services to Entertainment’.

  • The Twenty Greatest Music Concerts I've Ever Seen

    The Twenty Greatest Music Concerts I've Ever Seen

    THE TWENTY GREATEST MUSIC CONCERTS I'VE EVER SEEN Whew, I'm done. Let me remind everyone how this worked. I would go through my Ipod in that weird Ipod alphabetical order and when I would come upon an artist that I have seen live, I would replay that concert in my head. (BTW, since this segment started I no longer even have an ipod. All my music is on my laptop and phone now.) The number you see at the end of the concert description is the number of times I have seen that artist live. If it was multiple times, I would do my best to describe the one concert that I considered to be their best. If no number appears, it means I only saw that artist once. Mind you, I have seen many artists live that I do not have a song by on my Ipod. That artist is not represented here. So although the final number of concerts I have seen came to 828 concerts (wow, 828!), the number is actually higher. And there are "bar" bands and artists (like LeCompt and Sam Butera, for example) where I have seen them perform hundreds of sets, but I counted those as "one," although I have seen Lecompt in "concert" also. Any show you see with the four stars (****) means they came damn close to being one of the Top Twenty, but they fell just short. So here's the Twenty. Enjoy and thanks so much for all of your input. And don't sue me if I have a date wrong here and there.

In the second half of the 1970s, Brian Eno, Larry Fast, Mickey Hart, Stomu Yamashta and many other musicians blurred the lines between rock and avantgarde. Brian Eno (34), ex-keyboardist for Roxy Music, changed the course of rock music at least three times. The experiment of fusing pop and electronics on Taking Tiger Mountain By Strategy (sep 1974 - nov 1974) changed the very notion of what a "pop song" is. Eno took cheap melodies (the kind that are used at the music-hall, on television commercials, by nursery rhymes) and added a strong rhythmic base and counterpoint of synthesizer. The result was similar to the novelty numbers and the "bubblegum" music of the early 1960s, but it had the charisma of sheer post-modernist genius. Eno had invented meta-pop music: avantgarde music that employs elements of pop music. He continued the experiment on Another Green World (aug 1975 - sep 1975), but then changed its perspective on Before And After Science (? 1977 - dec 1977). Here Eno's catchy ditties acquired a sinister quality.
  • Darryl Way – Vivaldi's Four Seasons in Rock

    Darryl Way – Vivaldi's Four Seasons in Rock

    Darryl Way – Vivaldi’s Four Seasons In Rock (41:20, CD, Cherry Red Records- The Right Honourable Recording Company, 2018) Darryl Way dürfte den meisten Lesern durch sein Mitwirken bei Curved Air bekannt sein, oder auch durch seine Band Darryl Way’s Wolf (u.a. mit Ian Mosley. Auf dem Debütalbum von 1970 war er ebenso vertreten, wie auf den meisten Alben bis 1976 (auf dem 73er Album „Air Cut“ war an seiner Stelle ein gewisser Eddie Jobson aktiv). Bei „Alive 1990“ ist er noch einmal dabei, doch an der neuen Reinkarnation hat er nicht mehr teilgenommen. Zwar sind Curved Air nicht unbedingt in der allerersten Reihe der 70er Prog Dinos einzuordnen, doch sie konnten sich einen treuen Fankreis erarbeiten und erreichten durchaus einen gewissen Bekanntheitsgrad. Zu einem Herausstellungsmerkmal gehörte neben Frontfrau Sonja Kristina auch das prägnante Geigenspiel. Gleich auf dem Debütalbum „Air Conditioning“ ist ein Klassiker der Band zu finden, der seinerzeit auch zu den Höhepunkten ihrer Konzerte gehörte, nämlich der, logischerweise von Way arrangierte Titel ‚Vivaldi‘. He did it his way, sozusagen. Anscheinend stammt sein Arrangement aus dem Jahr 1968, denn im Booklet der vorliegenden CD steht geschrieben, dass sich Way pünktlich zum 50. Geburtstag seiner Klassik-Rock-Hymne an eine komplette Neueinspielung von Vivaldis „Die vier Jahreszeiten“ gewagt hat. Mit viel Respekt vor dem Original, das er für ein Beispiel musikalischer Perfektion hält, hat er sich vorgenommen, daraus eine Rock-Variante zu kreieren. Dabei hat er sich ganz bewusst sehr nah an der Vorlage bewegt, lediglich in langsameren Passagen hat er leichte Veränderungen zugelassen.
