Bruce Hornsby opens tour and new Guthrie Theater “Monday was a night of firsts: • The first full-fledged concert at the new Guthrie Theater. • The first concert of singer-pianist Bruce Hornsby’s solo tour. • The first time in music-biz history that a multiple-CD boxed set (retail price $50) was given out to each and every concertgoer. (NOTE: 921 sets that night!!) • The first time a fan was invited onstage at the Guthrie by the performer to make a request and shake hands, but this woman overstayed her welcome to the point that other concertgoers were shouting for “security.” This night of firsts was musically winning but, quite frankly, uncomfortably bizarre at times. Hornsby, 51, was chatty, genial and quick-witted. He showed a keen sense of pacing during his two-set, 135-minute performance and always seemed to know when to cut off the conversation — and the shouts from the fans. As was the case at the old Guthrie, concertgoers weren’t hesitant about taking advantage of the intimacy and anonymity of darkness; they had plenty to say to Hornsby, who asked for requests. Moreover, he was playing on the set of “Lost in Yonkers,” his grand piano perched in the grandma’s living room, which further stripped away the inhibitions. Suffice it to say, the best line of the night was delivered via a handwritten fan note: “Sorry for those drunken hillbillies.” Hornsby rolled with it. That’s the way he was at his piano, as well. He was an adventurous improviser with a respect for strong, soulful melodies and a wide musical vocabulary. The influences of many of his heroes could be heard in various pieces — Randy Newman, Keith Jarrett, Mose Allison, Elton John, Leon Russell, among others. Hornsby’s sound was distinctively southern, with plenty of jazz and classical mixed in. Several tunes were social commentaries about the South (“Talk of the Town,”The Way It Is”), and a few were hilarious romps (“The Dreaded Spoon,” an upcoming collaboration with bluegrass star Ricky Skaggs, and a piece about Donald Trump written for a musical whose key line was “we all should agree to pay homage to me”). Hornsby even tackled requests for songs he said were really fit for a band, not solo piano, and rewardingly reworked old favorites, turning “The Valley Road” into a funk-blues strut and starting “The Way It Is,” one of the prettiest protest songs ever, as an impressionist piece, eventually moving into a light classical passage and then some barrelhouse boogie.” New stuff on the blog Look Who’s Hanging!

Get the 411 on the new Joan Osborne cd Premier vocalist and songwriter, Joan Osborne, will be releasing her Vanguard Records debut, “Pretty Little Stranger” on November 14th. Recorded in Nashville and produced by Grammy winner, Steve Buckingham, “Pretty Little Stranger” highlights the soulful sound of Joan Osborne with elements of country blues and Americana. This 12 song collection features six original tunes written by Joan including the first single, “Who Divided”, “Shake That Devil”, “After Jane” and the title track and also compositions by Kris Kristofferson (“Please Don’t Tell Me How The Story Ends”), Jerry Garcia/Robert Hunter (“Brokedown Palace”) and Patty Griffin (“What You Are”). Joan stated, “I would call this my version of a country record — some of it very traditional, some less so. It tells feelings and stories in very simple language, and I wanted to focus on that simple way of communicating, rather than be flowery and poetic. I needed to get down to the bare bones and I feel like we did a good job of doing that.” “Pretty Little Stranger” features some of music’s finest performers lending their talents including Vince Gill on “Time Won’t Tell,” Alison Krauss, “Holy Waters”, Sonny Landreth playing slide guitar on “Dead Roses” and Rodney Crowell providing harmony vocals on his own “When The Blue Hour Comes.” Joan Osborne had one of the biggest releases of the mid-90’s with “Relish” and participated in the historic and successful Lilith Fair Tour. She has worked with a myriad of artists like Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder, The Chieftains and Bonnie Raitt. She toured with The Dead in the summer of 2004 and recently finished a tour with Phil Lesh & Friends. For up-to-the-minute AAA news... RIGHT ARM RESOURCE WEEKLY READER - 10/4/06.

  • Vanguard Label Discography Was Compiled Using Our Record Collections, Schwann Catalogs from 1953 to 1982, a Phono-Log from 1963, and Various Other Sources
    Discography Of The Vanguard Label Vanguard Records was established in New York City in 1947. It was owned by Maynard and Seymour Solomon. The label released classical, folk, international, jazz, pop, spoken word, rhythm and blues and blues. Vanguard had a subsidiary called Bach Guild that released classical music. The Solomon brothers started the company with a loan of $10,000 from their family and rented a small office on 80 East 11th Street. The label was started just as the 33 1/3 RPM LP was just gaining popularity and Vanguard concentrated on LP’s. Vanguard commissioned recordings of five Bach Cantatas and those were the first releases on the label. As the long play market expanded Vanguard moved into other fields of music besides classical. The famed producer John Hammond (Discoverer of Robert Johnson, Bruce Springsteen Billie Holiday, Bob Dylan and Aretha Franklin) came in to supervise a jazz series called Jazz Showcase. The Solomon brothers’ politics was left leaning and many of the artists on Vanguard were black-listed by the House Un-American Activities Committive. Vanguard ignored the black-list of performers and had success with Cisco Houston, Paul Robeson and the Weavers. The Weavers were so successful that Vanguard moved more and more into the popular field. Folk music became the main focus of the label and the home of Joan Baez, Ian and Sylvia, Rooftop Singers, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Doc Watson, Country Joe and the Fish and many others. During the 1950’s and early 1960’s, a folk festival was held each year in Newport Rhode Island and Vanguard recorded and issued albums from the those events.

  • 2012 Bruce Solo Biography
    Bruce Hornsby Bruce Hornsby has built one of the most diverse, collaborative and adventurous careers in contemporary music. Drawing from a vast wellspring of American musical traditions, the singer/pianist/composer/bandleader has created a large and accomplished body of work and employed a vast array of stylistic approaches. Throughout this period, Hornsby has maintained the integrity, virtuosity and artistic curiosity that have been hallmarks of his work from the start. The 13-time Grammy nominee’s commercial stock soared early on when “The Way It Is” – the title track of Bruce Hornsby and the Range’s 1986 debut album – became the most-played song on American radio in 1987 and won ASCAP’s Song of the Year award. “The Way It Is” and hits like “Mandolin Rain” and “Every Little Kiss” established Hornsby as a popular musician, while subsequent high-profile work with the likes of Don Henley, Willie Nelson, Charlie Haden and Bonnie Raitt made him an in-demand collaborator. Though a talented and instantly identifiable singer, bandleader and pianist, Hornsby is a songwriter at heart. He is committed to portraying his songs in new ways that allow them to evolve and expand. This approach was further developed during his time spent playing over one hundred shows with The Grateful Dead between 1990 and 1995. Hornsby found a kindred spirit in the Dead, with their vibrant tradition of loosely blending folk, jazz, blues and improvisation. Over the years, Hornsby has successfully ventured into jazz, classical, bluegrass and even electronica, reflected on acclaimed releases like the bluegrass project Ricky Skaggs and Bruce Hornsby (2007) and the jazz trio album Camp Meeting (2007), with Jack DeJohnette and Christian McBride.

  • Artist: Jim Lauderdale Album: Country Super Hits Vol 1 Label: Yep Roc
    2006 www.realrootscafe.com [email protected] Artist: Jim Lauderdale Album: Country Super Hits Vol 1 Label: Yep Roc Records woensdag 20 december 2006 Even niet opgelet en de titel ‘Country Super Hits Vol.1’ zet je op het verkeerde been. Het is namelijk geen verzameling oude countryhits van Jim Lauderdale, maar een gloednieuw afgeleverd werkstuk dat, in samenwerking met de mij onbekende Odie Blackmon, werd gemaakt. Beiden schreven - op één na – de liedjes en deden de productie. In Amerika zal dit album waarschijnlijk hoge ogen gooien bij publiek en pers, hier te lande zal alleen de verstokte liefhebber van ouderwetse country & western, in een enigszins vernieuwde outfit, even opkijken. Dus vermoed ik dat deze bespreking tegen vele dovenmansoren zal zijn gericht. Dat valt wat mij betreft goed te snappen, omdat luisteren naar driekwartier Honky Tonk immers een tamelijk zelfkastijdend tijdverdrijf is. Daar kan het uitnodigende openingsnummer van deze cd Honky Tonk Mood Again, het grote koor aan muzikanten en de heldere productie niet veel aan verhelpen. Ook al zijn er een paar nummers met een lichte folk- en bluesinvloed, het blijft té country & western. Waarmee ik het traditionele countrygenre in het algemeen en deze cd in het bijzondere niet wil diskwalificeren. Hooguit valt er wat aan te merken op de smaak van ondergetekende. Maar ja, daarover valt in wezen altijd te twisten. Huub Thomassen Artist: Josh Ottum Album: Like The Season Label: Tapete Records woensdag 20 december 2006 Na vier jaar lang muziek te hebben gemaakt in zijn slaapkamer kwam de uit Seattle afkomstige singer- songwriter Josh Ottum tot het idee maar eens een debuut album te maken.
