  • Hall of Fame Andy Partridge
    Hall of Fame Andy Partridge Andrew John Partridge (born 11 November 1953) is an English singer, songwriter, guitarist, and record producer from Swindon. He is best known for co-founding the rock band XTC, in which he served as the group's primary songwriter and vocalist. While the band was formed as an early punk rock group, Partridge's music drew heavily from British Invasion songwriters, and his style gradually shifted to more traditional pop, often with pastoral themes. The band's only British top 10 hit, "Senses Working Overtime" (1982), was written by Partridge. In addition to his work with XTC, Partridge has released one solo album on Virgin Records in 1980 called Take Away / The Lure of Salvage. He has also collaborated (as performer, writer or record producer) with recording artists, including Martin Newell, with whom he recorded and produced an album in 1993 entitled The Greatest Living Englishman released in Japan as a duo album. Partridge was producer for the English band Blur during the recording of Modern Life Is Rubbish (1993). He was replaced by Stephen Street at the insistence of their record label, Food. According to Partridge he was unpaid for the sessions and received his expenses only. Partridge also wrote four songs for Disney's version of James and the Giant Peach (1996) but was replaced by Randy Newman when he could not get Disney to offer him "an acceptable deal". In the 2000s, Partridge began releasing demos of his songs under his own name in The Official Fuzzy Warbles Collector's Album and the Fuzzy Warbles album series on his APE House record label.

The Racialization of Jimi Hendrix Abstract The period of history immediately following World War Two was a time of intense social change. The nde of colonialism, the internal struggles of newly emerging independent nations in Africa, social and political changes across Europe, armed conflict in Southeast Asia, and the civil rights movement in America were just a few. Although many of the above conflicts have been in the making for quite some time, they seemed to unite to form a socio-political cultural revolution known as the 60s, the effects of which continues to this day. The 1960s asw a particularly intense time for race relations in the United States. Long before it officially became a republic, in matters of race, white America collectively had trouble reconciling what it practiced versus what it preached. Nowhere is this racial contradiction more apparent than in the case of Jimi Hendrix. Jimi Hendrix is emblematic of the racial ideal and the racial contradictions of the 1960s.

Rockers van tegenwoordig moeten op die leeftijd hun eerste sporen nog verdienen, Duane had toen al een oeuvre bij elkaar waar nu 7 cd's mee gevuld staan op een Retrospectieve boxset die ons sedert vorige week tot leidraad dient. Waar waren we gebleven? Bij The Weight! 2:47 2 The Weight (Robertson) Rounder KING CURTIS II/25 Een tweede The Weights waar Duane Allman op meespeelt, die van King Curtis, die Duane had leren kennen tijdens de opname van datzelfde nummer maar dan voor Aretha Franklin en daar waren we vorige week gebleven. Duane had de grootste bewondering voor King Curtis om diens unieke mix van soul, blues, gospel & jazz en waar hij wat graag in meeging. Toen Curtis in 1971 in een vuurgevecht om het leven kwam was dat een hele schok voor Duane, ook voor Aretha trouwens die op de begrafenis zong. Bij de eerstvolgende gelegenheid live met zijn Allman Brothers Band versmolt Duane Soul Serenade van King Curtis in een medley met hun You Don't Love Me. We pikken in bij dat Soul Serenade- gedeelte. (starten bij 7:02): (tot 11:20) 4:18 3 Soul Serenade (Ousley/Dixon) Rounder ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND VII/4 Duane 'Skydog' Allman's versie van Soul Serenade was eerder al te horen op de Allman Brothers boxset Dreams, nu ook op Skydog - The Duane Allman Retrospective, mede samengesteld door zijn dochter Galadrielle die werkelijk met de kam door al haar vader's opnamen gegaan is om dan alleen maar hoogtepunten over te houden.

    Wymer Publishing Uriah Heep A Visual Biography Martin Popoff With Kevin Julie on images Publication date: 16th April 2021 RRP: £59.99 ISBN: 978-1-912782-56-7 Hardback: 297 x 210mm, 240pp. The publication of Martin Popoff’s Uriah Heep: A Visual Biography is something of a bitter‐sweet I event given the recent news. Following the very sad loss of Lee Kerslake in September 2020, Popoff — having interviewed various band members over the past few years — was all set to conduct another interview with Ken Hensley in mid‐ November when the tragic news of Ken’s sudden departure reached Heep fans around the world. Undeterred, the decision that had already been made to immortalise Uriah Heep with a comprehensive visual biography remained. RELEASE Popoff’s celebrated and detailed timeline takes us through more than fifty years of massive rock history from this much‐loved band. From the early days with legendary front man David Byron, through the John Lawton years; the John Sloman and Pete Goalby fronted periods and from 1986 with Bernie Shaw taking centre stage; all eras are comprehensively covered. This differs from previous Uriah Heep books with the inclusion of so many previously unpublished photos, along with rare memorabilia and artefacts that makes this an indispensable addition to the vast Uriah Heep catalogue.
