À PROPOS DE NICO PAR SUSANNA NICCHIARELLI La musique de Nico était âpre, mais c’était de loin l’une des productions avons relevé le défi qu’elle puisse toucher le public. Avec Trine comme musicales les plus intéressantes et exigeantes de son époque : elle a créé avec les autres comédiens, notamment John Gordon Sinclair, j’ai utilisé un style unique alliant recherches personnelles, expérimentations et ironie, le regard des partenaires de Nico, du manager aux membres du groupe, refusant obstinément de se soucier du succès commercial.

  • Book Proposal 3
    Rock and Roll has Tender Moments too... ! Photographs by Chalkie Davies 1973-1988 ! For as long as I can remember people have suggested that I write a book, citing both my exploits in Rock and Roll from 1973-1988 and my story telling abilities. After all, with my position as staff photographer on the NME and later The Face and Arena, I collected pop stars like others collected stamps, I was not happy until I had photographed everyone who interested me. However, given that the access I had to my friends and clients was often unlimited and 24/7 I did not feel it was fair to them that I should write it all down. I refused all offers. Then in 2010 I was approached by the National Museum of Wales, they wanted to put on a retrospective of my work, this gave me a special opportunity. In 1988 I gave up Rock and Roll, I no longer enjoyed the music and, quite simply, too many of my friends had died, I feared I might be next. So I put all of my negatives into storage at a friends Studio and decided that maybe 25 years later the images you see here might be of some cultural significance, that they might be seen as more than just pictures of Rock Stars, Pop Bands and Punks. That they even might be worthy of a Museum. So when the Museum approached me three years ago with the idea of a large six month Retrospective in 2015 I agreed, and thought of doing the usual thing and making a Catalogue.

  • The Moody Blues Tour / Set List Project - Updated April 9, 2006
    The Moody Blues Tour / Set List Project - updated April 9, 2006 compiled by Linda Bangert Please send any additions or corrections to Linda Bangert ([email protected]) and notice of any broken links to Neil Ottenstein ([email protected]). This listing of tour dates, set lists, opening acts, additional musicians was derived from many sources, as noted on each file. Of particular help were "Higher and Higher" magazine and their website at www.moodies- magazine.com and the Moody Blues Official Fan Club (OFC) Newsletters. For a complete listing of people who contributed, click here. Particular thanks go to Neil Ottenstein, who hosts these pages, and to Bob Hardy, who helped me get these pages converted to html. One-off live performances, either of the band as a whole or of individual members, are not included in this listing, but generally can be found in the Moody Blues FAQ in Section 8.7 - What guest appearances have the band members made on albums, television, concerts, music videos or print media? under the sub-headings of "Visual Appearances" or "Charity Appearances". The current version of the FAQ can be found at www.toadmail.com/~notten/FAQ-TOC.htm I've construed "additional musicians" to be those who played on stage in addition to the members of the Moody Blues. Although Patrick Moraz was legally determined to be a contract player, and not a member of the Moody Blues, I have omitted him from the listing of additional musicians for brevity. Moraz toured with the Moody Blues from 1978 through 1990. From 1965-1966 The Moody Blues were Denny Laine, Clint Warwick, Mike Pinder, Ray Thomas and Graeme Edge, although Warwick left the band sometime in 1966 and was briefly replaced with Rod Clarke.

  • 1 the Absent Presence of Progressive Rock in the British Music Press, 1968
    The absent presence of progressive rock in the British music press, 1968-1974 Chris Anderton and Chris Atton Abstract The upsurge of academic interest in the genre known as progressive rock has taken much for granted. In particular, little account has been taken of how discourses surrounding progressive rock were deployed in popular culture in the past, especially within the music press. To recover the historical place of the music and its critical reception, we present an analysis of three British weekly music papers of the 1960s and 1970s: Melody Maker, New Musical Express and Sounds. We find that there appears to be relatively little consensus in the papers studied regarding the use and meaning of the term ‘progressive’, pointing to either multiple interpretations or an instability of value judgments and critical claims. Its most common use is to signify musical quality – to connect readers with the breadth of new music being produced at that time, and to indicate a move away from the ‘underground’ scene of the late 1960s. 1 Introduction Beginning in the 1990s there has been an upsurge of academic interest in the genre known as progressive rock, with the appearance of book-length studies by Edward Macan (“Rocking”) and Bill Martin (“Music of Yes”, “Listening”), to which we might add, though not strictly academic, Paul Stump. The 2000s have seen further studies of similar length, amongst them Paul Hegarty & Martin Halliwell, Kevin Holm-Hudson (“Progressive”, “Genesis”) and Edward Macan (“Endless”), in addition to scholarly articles by Jarl A. Ahlkvist, Chris Anderton (“Many-headed”), Chris Atton (“Living”), Kevin Holm-Hudson “Apocalyptic”), and Jay Keister & Jeremy L.

  • A History of the Astoria Cinema and Rainbow Theatre, Finsbury Park
    FROM COLMAN TO COSTELLO A HISTORY OF THE ASTORIA CINEMA AND RAINBOW THEATRE, FINSBURY PARK The Finsbury Park Astoria, later renamed the Rainbow Theatre, began life as an ‘atmospheric’ cinema in 1930, bringing entertainment and luxury to a densely populated part of Islington, north London. The Astoria’s opening feature film was Condemned starring Ronald Colman, who was one of the era’s most popular screen idols. By the 1960s the Astoria had developed a dual role both as a picture house and as a music venue. The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Nat ‘King’ Cole, Sarah Vaughan, Frank Sinatra and Jimi Hendrix all played there. Its final picture show in September 1971 featured a double bill of Gorgo and the Boulting Brothers’ Twisted Nerve. However, the building was not to remain dark for long and, a little over six weeks later, at time when many cinema theatres throughout Britain were being converted to use as bingo halls or being demolished, the Astoria reinvented itself. In November 1971, and rebranded as the Rainbow Theatre, it was to become legendary as a rock music venue, attracting some of the biggest names in contemporary and popular music. The Who, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Miles Davis, Rory Gallagher, Queen, Liza Minnelli, The Jacksons and Bob Marley all performed at the Rainbow. Notable acts from the decade’s burgeoning reggae, punk and new wave scenes also appeared on the theatre’s famous stage. Elvis Costello headlined the final concert at the Rainbow in December 1981. In spite of being designated Grade II-listed status for its architectural importance, the building’s future remained undecided for many years.
