Brian Auger´S Oblivion Express Feat. Alex Ligertwood
Brian Auger´s Oblivion Express feat. Alex Ligertwood Alex Ligertwood (li.) und Brian Auger (re.) „Brian Auger (* 18. Juli 1939 in London) ist einer der profiliertesten Jazz- und Rock-Keyboarder der Gegenwart. Für seine Millionen Fans ist der einzigartige Sound, der seine Wurzeln im Jazz, Rock, Soul und Funk hat, ein unverkennbares Markenzeichen des berühmten Hammond - und Keyboard -Spielers. Schon früh erhielt Auger Klavierunterricht. 1962 formierte er sein Brian Auger Trio mit Rick Laird und Schlagzeuger Phil Kinorra als zunächst reine Jazzcombo. 1965 gründete er zusammen mit Rod Stewart, Julie Driscoll und John Baldry die Gruppe The Steampacket. Nachdem Rod Stewart und John Baldry die Gruppe verlassen hatten, gründete Auger mit Julie Driscoll die Gruppe Trinity. In dieser Besetzung hatte die Band mehrere Single-Hits (Road ToCairo, This Wheel's on Fire, Season Of The Witch) und brachte das viel beachtete Doppelalbum „Streetnoise“ (1969) heraus. Nachdem Driscoll 1969 Trinity verließ, besetzte Auger die Gruppe um (mit Gary Boyle), doch konnte er nicht mehr an die Erfolge der späten 1960er Jahre anknüpfen und löste Trinity 1970 auf. Auch mit seiner anschließend gegründeten Band Oblivion Express hatte Auger zunächst keinen übermäßigen Erfolg. Seit dem Album „CloserToIt“ (1973), das es in die Charts schaffte, festigte sich der Gruppenstil zu einer groove-betonten Mischung aus rhythmischen Elementen des R&B und Funk und harmonischen und melodischen Elementen des Jazz. Brian Auger trat auch mit Klaus Doldinger, Alexis Korner, Pete York, Eric Burdon und anderen Größen der populären Musik auf. 1974 zog Auger in die USA, wo er weiter Alben aufnahm. In den USA bekam er wieder Kontakt zu Julie Tippetts-Driscoll.

Nr.: MIG 00492 Format: 1 CD Jewel Genre: Rock Brian Auger talks about “The Mod Years” It was in April-May 1965, when Long John Baldry saw me playing in the Manchester club “The Twisted Wheel”. Baldry was already a famous name at that time. He even had his own hour a division of on television, so big deal. I was called to a meeting the following week with John, his manager and agent. John’s Hoochie Coochie Men were breaking up. It was suggested that my trio, the Trinity with bassist Rickey Brown and drummer Mickey Waller would become the rhythm section of the new band. I added Vic Briggs, John wanted his protégé Rod Stewart to sing with us. I suggested adding singer Julie Driscoll, who at that time was working in my manager’s office but waiting to start a career with a band. The Steampacket were a tremendous success live and went on to be called the first Supergroup. I arranged and interpreted stuff for everybody in the band. Because of arguments as what label to record for, we missed recording our own album. After the breakup, Baldry changed the band into The Shotgun Express and The Brotherhood, with Elton John at the piano. This anthology compiles tunes from before 1966.

Women in Rock OLLI Berkeley Course Material
Syllabus for Women in Rock: From the 1950s to the 1980s Instructor: Richie Unterberger, [email protected] OLLI Berkeley Week One: Women in Rock: The Early Years and The Girl Groups In the 1950s, rhythm and blues singers like Ruth Brown and LaVern Baker have some of the first rock’n’roll hits; Wanda Jackson and the Collins Kids are top rockabilly acts; and Brenda Lee becomes the first woman rock superstar. As New York’s Brill Building becomes established as the top place for rock publishers, women like Carole King, Cynthia Weil, and Ellie Greenwich become some of pop-rock’s most successful songwriters. Girl groups like the Shirelles, the Crystals, the Ronettes, the Chiffons, and the Cookies have numerous hits in the early 1960s, forming one of the major trends in rock of the period. In the early 1960s, some of the most R&B-oriented girl groups become some of the first soul stars, especially for Motown Records, with the Marvelettes, Martha & the Vandellas, the Supremes, and Mary Wells. Week Two: Women in Soul and British Rock Women soul singers emerge throughout the country, some of them more pop-oriented (Maxine Brown, Dionne Warwick), some of them earthier (Carla Thomas, Irma Thomas, Etta James). Aretha Franklin is anointed the Queen of Soul after moving to Atlantic Records and adopting a tougher, more spiritual sound. Other women soul singers with a forceful style emerge and increase in popularity, like Gladys Knight, Nina Simone, and the Staple Singers. Although all-male guitar bands dominate the British Invasion, a good number of women singers also make an impact both in their native UK and in the US.

© 2010 Brian Matthew Felix ROCK BECOMES JAZZ: INTERPRETATIONS OF POPULAR MUSIC BY IMPROVISING ARTISTS IN THE 1960s BY BRIAN MATTHEW FELIX THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Music with a concentration in Jazz Performance in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2010 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor John “Chip” Stephens, Chair Associate Professor Gabriel Solis, Director of Research Professor Jim Pugh Associate Professor Erik Lund ABSTRACT The advent of rock and roll changed the jazz world’s relationship to itself and its musical public. The popularity of jazz, in decline since the rise of bebop in the mid-1940s, was further eroded by rock and roll’s rise to prominence in the mid-1950s. By the mid-1960s, the jazz world seemed to be faced with a choice: adapt to accommodate the burgeoning new genre or risk fading further into popular irrelevance. Many jazz artists chose to ignore rock, oftentimes viewing it as a simple-minded pursuit dominated by white artists stealing from black musicians. Other artists, though, chose to engage with the new music and bring it into the jazz world by interpreting rock repertoire. In a way, this trend was no different than the time-honored jazz tradition of interpreting contemporary popular songs. Interpreting rock songs and incorporating them into their repertoire was different, though, because of the many prejudices that jazz musicians held toward rock music and the relative simplicity of rock’s musical attributes. This paper is dedicated to the in-depth study of jazz versions of rock music in the 1960s.
