1 John Renbourn & Dorris Henderson. Nous Avons Déjà John Renbourn & Dorris Henderson . Nous avons déjà parlé de John Renbourn, mais nous n’avons pas souligné combien sa collaboration avec Dorris Henderson fut fructueuse et belle. Ecoutons les dans quelques morceaux traditionnels : You’re gonna need somebody on your bond : http://official.fm/tracks/325730 Single girl : http://official.fm/tracks/325731 Banjo tune : http://official.fm/tracks/325734 Going to Memphis : http://official.fm/tracks/325735 Dorris Henderson, originaire des Etats-Unis, est née en 1933 à Lakeland, a été élevée à Los Angeles et s’est éteinte en 2005. Son père était un chanteur de folk music et un joueur de autoharp et elle était la fille d’une africaine. Elle a commencé à travailler comme fonctionnaire, mais commença à s’intéresser à la musique après avoir vu Odetta en concert et devint vite une habituée des clubs de jazz. En jouant de l’autoharp, elle fit la rencontre de Lord Buckley, qui la fit décoller en lui demandant de l’accompagner dans des représentations. Ayant ainsi gagné quelque reconnaissance, elle décida de se consacrer entièrement à la musique, se rendit à New York à l’époque où Greenwich Village était au centre d’un fort mouvement de folk music si bien qu’elle fit la connaissance de figures populaires comme Dave Van Ronk, Fred Neil, Paul Simon et Bob Dylan. Elle allait pourtant se rendre en Angleterre, pour suivre son frère qui travaillait là- bas dans les forces de guerre américaines, y devint vite une habituée de The Troubadour , un centre de renaissance du folk, et put apparaître dans un programme télévisé aux côté de Tom Jones et Sandie Shaw. Lors de sa rencontre avec John Renbourn, elle lui proposa de l’accompagner chanter et, de là, naquirent deux albums (There You Go (1965) and Watch the Stars (1967)). Ensuite, elle se lia avec un comparse de ce dernier, Bert Jansch, et devint la chanteuse du groupe Eclection, jouant même avec eux au Festival de l’ile de Wight. Après avoir épousé Mac McGann, Henderson s’installa à Twickenham et se retira largement du spectacle musical. Elle mourut en 2005 après une lutte acharnée contre le cancer.

  • SANDY DENNY UNDER REVIEW: an Independent Critical Analysis, Limited Collectors Edition
    SANDY DENNY UNDER REVIEW: An Independent Critical Analysis, Limited Collectors Edition The difference between a critical analysis of {$Sandy Denny} or {$The Velvet Underground} and {$The Rolling Stones} is that with a lot less information available on this extraordinary singer the audience is more limited. The good news is that this edition of the "Under Review" series actually lives up to the documentary status it claims, and does, indeed, hold one's attention and inform better than the {^Green Day: Under Review 1995-2000 The Middle Years}, which is basically a bunch of critics blowing lots of hot air. It seems with these "DVD/Fanzine" type commentaries that the lesser known the subject matter, the better the critique. Denny is a singer that deserves so much more acclaim and study, and this is an excellent starting point, as is the {$Kate Bush} "Under Review", and even the {$David Bowie} {^Under Review 1976-79 Berlin} analysis which concentrates on his dark but fun period. {$Fairport Convention} fiddler {$Dave Swarbrick}, journeyman {$Martin Carthy}, {$Cat Stevens} drummer {$Gerry Conway} of Denny's band, {$Fotheringay} and {$Pentangle}'s {$John Renbourn} contribute as does {$Fairport Convention} biographer {$Patrick Humphries}. That's the extra effort missing in some of these packages which makes this close to two hour presentation all the more interesting. Perhaps more important than the very decent {$Kate Bush} analysis by the {^Under Review} team, there's a "Limited Collector's Edition" with a cardboard slipcover. It's a very classy presentation and a very important history that deserves shelf space in any good library.

  • 1 John Renbourn. John Renbourn Est Un Guitariste Folk Anglais Né En
    John Renbourn . John Renbourn est un guitariste folk anglais né en 1944 en Angleterre appartenant à la mouvance créée par Davey Graham (co-auteur de « Angie » avec Janch, qu’interpréta Paul Simon sur son premier disque). Il est connu du public pour ses collaborations avec le guitariste Bert Jansch, ainsi que pour son travail au sein du groupe folk qu’il a formé avec lui et d’autres, le Pentangle, mais a toujours mené une carrière solo avant, pendant et après l'activité du groupe (de 1967 à 1973). Ecoutons le : White house blues (du disque Faro Annie ) : http://official.fm/tracks/323234 Little Sadie (du disque Faro Annie ) : http://official.fm/tracks/323235 Shake, shake mama (du disque Faro Annie ) : http://official.fm/tracks/323236 John Renbourn a étudié la guitare classique à l'école, et c'est pendant cette période qu'il a fait la connaissance de la Musique Primitive. Dans les années 1950, il fut grandement inspiré par l'originalité décalée du Skiffle et ce fut pour lui l'occasion d'explorer le travail d'artistes tels que Leadbelly, Josh White et Big Bill Broonzy. Au début des années soixante, la mode populaire était au Rhythm and Blues, dont se réclamaient des groupes tels que les Rolling stones. Cette émergence de la musique noire américaine au Royaume-Uni tient beaucoup à l'influence de guitaristes acoustiques tels que Davey Graham. En 1961, Renbourn a ainsi tourné dans le Sud- Ouest des États-Unis avec Mac MacLeod, tour de chant répété en 1963. Pendant ses études au Kingston College of Art de Londres, Renbourn fit brièvement partie d'un groupe de Rhythm and Blues.

  • The Folk Club of Reston-Herndon Preserving the Traditions of Folk Music, Folk Lore, and Gentle Folk Ways Volume 28, Issue 7 July 2012
    The Folk Club of Reston-Herndon Preserving the traditions of Folk Music, Folk Lore, and Gentle Folk Ways www.RestonHerndonFolkClub.com Volume 28, Issue 7 July 2012 July 10 Showcase – Scott Malyszka & Friends When I was a spiritual person in my younger days, I loved a good sermon. Now you ask various church people what makes a good sermon, and you'll have trouble getting a lot of agreement. Some people want to hear comfortable, familiar platitudes, and some like loud shouting and stomping around. Others expect the preacher to give a deep academic exposition of a text or topic. I knew one strange guy who would say, "If I don't feel guilty and ashamed after a sermon, then that preacher isn't doing his job." Whoa, yikes! I always felt that a good sermon simply meant telling a good story. When a person could stand in front of an audience and paint stories in their imaginations, well that's what I liked. And when I had the task of delivering a sermon, I tried to put together twenty minutes of good stories. I modeled my sermons on Garrison Keeler and John Steinbeck rather than Billy Graham or Jimmy Swaggart, the most popular preachers back then. After many years as a church person I came to the cynical conclusion that most people go to church to see their friends and to be entertained by the sermon and the music. I'm not a spiritual person now, but I do have a great appreciation for friends, stories, and music. I'm always finding intriguing new melodies from fiddle tunes and songs, and writing my own songs is my way of making up stories today.

  • Rosemary Lane 1996-99
    Introducing Rosemary Lane 1996-99 hese six editions of Rosemary Lane from T1996-99 cover vibrant years in the post- Pentangle musical projects of Bert Jansch, Jacqui McShee and John Renbourn. Bert married Loren Auerbach, launched his successful come-back album When the Circus Come to Town, brought his own musical circus to town by taking up regular residency with friends at the popular 12- Bar Club in Denmark Street, released a bootleg album from that experience, toured around the world and followed up with the memorable Toy Balloon from the studio. Jacqui put out the first fruits of her collaboration with Gerry Conway and Spencer Cousins in the long-awaited About Thyme album, began work on the follow-up Passe Avant whilst touring Europe and the UK both with her own band and John Renbourn. John himself had started working on arrangements that eventually emerged on the album Traveller’s Prayer, but in the meantime was overtaken by the release of the Lost Sessions album of recordings from the early ‘70’s, whilst touring the US and Europe which also gave rise to the Live in Italy collection. He played with Jacqui, Stefan Grossman, Isaac Guillory, Archie Fisher, Wizz Jones and even teamed up again with Dorris Henderson for some impromptu concerts re-visiting their early 1960’s collaborations. So when you read the magazines now, you will quickly discover they depict three flourishing talents fully- engaged with their music and thrilling audiences wherever they performed. he magazine was despatched to all four corners of the British Isles. TInternationally the most popular continent was Europe headed up by readers in Germany, Italy and Norway with fewer in Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, France, the Republic of Ireland, Spain, Portugal and Sweden.

    History Of Palm Desert John Fraim John Fraim 189 Keswick Drive New Albany, OH 43054 760-844-2595 [email protected] www.symbolism.org © 2013 – John Fraim Special Thanks To Palm Desert Historical Society & Hal Rover Brett Romer Duchess Emerson Lincoln Powers Carla Breer Howard 2 “The desert has gone a-begging for a word of praise these many years. It never had a sacred poet; it has in me only a lover … This is a land of illusions and thin air. The vision is so cleared at times that the truth itself is deceptive.” John Charles Van Dyke The Desert (1901) “The other Desert - the real Desert - is not for the eyes of the superficial observer, or the fearful soul or the cynic. It is a land, the character of which is hidden except to those who come with friendliness and understanding. To these the Desert offers rare gifts … health-giving sunshine—a sky that is studded with diamonds—a breeze that bears no poison—a landscape of pastel colors such as no artist can duplicate—thorn-covered plants which during countless ages have clung tenaciously to life through heat and drought and wind and the depredations of thirsty animals, and yet each season send forth blossoms of exquisite coloring as a symbol of courage that has triumphed over terrifying obstacles. To those who come to the Desert with friendliness, it gives friendship; to those who come with courage, it gives new strength of character. Those seeking relaxation find release from the world of man-made troubles. For those seeking beauty, the Desert offers nature’s rarest artistry.
