Walter “Wolfman”Washington Walter Biografia from California Walter “Wolfman” Washin- gton è stato un icona nella scena musicale di New Or- leans per decadi. La sua bruciante chitarra e, le sue vocalità soulful, hanno determinato lo stile ibrido musicale del R&B, del Funk e Blues nella crescente città da quando ha formato la sua prima band negli anni ’70. Washington inizia la sua carriera du- rante i fertili anni ’50, periodo Rhythm & Blues che depone dozzine di gran- di successi e rende New Orleans la destinazione prescelta per la regi- strazione di grandi hit come quelle di Ray Charles e Little Richard. Nato nel 1943, Walter è già in tour durante il suo tardo periodo adole- & The Roadmasters scenziale, trascorrendo più di due anni come supporto alle formidali hits della grande cantante Lee Dorsey. Prima di apparire sulle scene con la sua Solar System band, appare con l’acclamata cantante Irma Thomas così come con il leggendario Jazz- man David Lastie e la sua band. Durante gli anni ’70 inizia una collaborazione di 20 anni con uno dei più importanti ed acclamati vocalist della Louisiana, il grande Johnny Adams. Soppranominato “The Tan Canary” per il suo stile vocale ineguagliabile, Adams è la guida per Walter che sviluppa il suo stile canoro durante la collaborazione con lui ai club più rinomati, incluso una lunga apparizione al celebre Dorothy’s Medallion. Quando Washington forma la sua prima band viene spesso generalizzato nel blues, ma parlando delle sue battute iniziali con Dorsey, Thomas, Adams e Lastie, il suo sound riflette un intero genere musicale. Certamente può cantare blues, da qui il suo nickname, ma il suo talento musicale ha sempre definito un puro Soul.

Assistendo ad un suo show con la sua corrente band, The Roadmasters, è affine par- lare di una lezione di black music americana, con l’eccezione che stare seduti e pren- dere note non è una scelta. Con la sua ampiezza di esperienze e con un repertorio apparentemente senza fine, ognuno dei suoi show è di un genere diverso. Come i grandi jazzman, Washington incanala tutti i giorni della sua vita nella sua musica. Affidandosi all’ambiente la band suona Blues, R&B, Soul, Funk, Jazz e qualsisi cosa che sia pura. Washington, come Adams prima di lui, è un grande interprete. Si adatta ad ogni numero che sia una canzone popolare o un Funk crescente. Il suo dono gli permette di portare il suo spirito nella composizione mentre sempre rivela i veri sentimenti al pubblico. Mentre perfeziona il suo dono vocale, il suono della sua chitarra è senza confronto fin dall’inizio della sua carriera. Come un ritmico musicista provvede alla giusta tensione per supportare i membri della sua band durante gli assoli. Ma è durante il suo momento sotto i riflettori che realmente risplende. Quando suona la chitarra si lascia trascinare dal pub- blico come se continuasse il suo colorato e intenso assolo crescente d’intensità o come una spirale attorno ad un tema centrale. & The Roadmasters Walter “Wolfman” Washington si è guadagnato numerosi elogi durante la sua carriera ma, a differenza di altri, non si è adiagiato nel suo alloro. Ha mantenuto un severa tabella con i Roadmasters così bene come con il suo trio The Chosen Few. Come se non fosse abbastanza, ha recentemente iniziato una collaborazione di gran successo con alcuni locali jazzamen, incluso il trombettista James Andrews. Così il cerchio della musica di New Orelans si chiude. Uguamente abile in ogni genere, Washington si evidenzia in una città ricca di mu- sicisti per il suo unico stile e insolita capacità sia come chitarrista, leader e can- tante.

In questo album la sua attraente voce soul e gli arrangia- menti lo rendono il suo primo album R&B del New Orleans classico. OUT OF THE DARK (1988) By Rounder Select Inseguendo il successo del suo primo album, Walter “Wolf- man” Washington unisce il nucleo del suono della sua band con la sua ricerca. Il batterista Wilbert Arnold e Walter si susseguono in “You Can Stay But the Noise Must Go,” mentre Walter ricerca il suo soul nell’interpretazione della canzone di Buddy John- son “Save Your Love for Me.” Questo è uno dei migliori album e delle registrazioni più funk di Walter. WOLF AT THE DOOR (1991) By Rounder Select Walter “Wolfman” Washington è uno dei più riconosciuti chitarristi e cantanti Rhythm & Blues odierni, con le carat- teristiche di un musicista jazz, blues e soul. La sua band, the Roadmasters, posa il più stretto e ispirato groove che nessuna band di New Orleans possiede oggi. La sua voce, potente ed espressiva, cresce in profondità in ogni album: ci sono tracce in questo album che innalzano il classico soul southern di ogni era.

  • And a Letter to My Customers ===
    --- == ROOTS & RHYTHM - SALE 01/12/2014 - AND A LETTER TO MY CUSTOMERS === --- Dear Friends Happy New Year! We hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. NOTE: Regrettably our holiday season was the slowest we've ever seen and it may mean that we will not be able to continue operating our business for very much longer. I am no longer a young man (not by a long shot!) and don't have the energy to pursue ways in which we may be able to promote the business. I would love to be able to settle down and listen to all the music I have gathered over the years in a relaxed setting and with critical reviewing faculties turned off. I would love to see Roots & Rhythm continue and thrive and even if we make it through the current crisis I would still like to get away from the stress of running a business so I am open to having someone else take over and move the company forward. If you are such a person or know such a person please contact me and we can discuss it. This list consists of a sale which we hope will raise enough money to help us get caught up with our suppliers and our taxes as well as some other pressing expenses. This list features 600 titles in all covering all the genres of music we specialize in and featuring books, DVDs and compact discs. This list includes manufacturer?s overstocks and deletions, our own excess inventory and a lot of titles that have been sitting on our shelves that have never been listed before.

  • New Orleans Love Songs
    New Orleans Love Songs As Valentine’s Day approaches, it is an appropriate time to take stock of the love songs recorded by New Orleans artists, as well as other tunes romantically connected with this great metropolis. In no particular order, here are just a few of the Crescent City’s great love songs. NECCO style Valentine candy hearts by Lakeview couple Cherie Melancon Franz and her husband Arthur – photo by Thinkerella Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans One of the great love songs to New Orleans, Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans, was written by two Yankees. The song’s lyricist, Eddie DeLange, was from Long Island, New York, and composer Louis Alter was born in Haverhill, Massachusetts. “Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans And miss it each night and day? I know I’m not wrong, the feeling’s getting stronger The longer I stay away. Miss the moss-covered vines, the tall sugar pines, Where mockingbirds used to sing. And I’d like to see the lazy Mississippi A-hurryin’ into Spring. Oh, the Mardi Gras, the memories Of Creole tunes that fill the air. I dream of oleanders in June, And soon I’m wishin’ that I were there. Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans When that’s where you left your heart? And there’s something more: I miss the one I care for More than I miss New Orleans.” Louis Armstrong truly owned the song (he and Billie Holiday introduced it in the 1947 film New Orleans), but some of the lyrics (albeit evocative and beautiful) just don’t make any sense.

  • Johnny Adams-Songbird
    Feb. 17, 1989--- One brilliant bird is migrating north this winter. In the early 1970s, a New Orleans disc jockey hung the name "Tan Canary" on soul singer Johnny Adams in an effort to describe his candied vocal versatility. Adams rings up high and low registers with a warble and throws in a whistle for a tip. He is the eighth wonder of the world. "I guess I do so much with one voice," Adams said in an interview before hitting the golf course near his Baton Rouge home. "Some people call me the `Tan Canary,' others call me `The Songbird of the South.' I take whatever it is." After 42 years of singing spirituals and soul music, Adams finally will make his Chicago area debut tonight and tomorrow at FitzGerald's in Berwyn. He'll be supported by his five-piece New Orleans band, featuring former Bobby "Blue" Bland guitarist Eugene Ross. Chicago's numero uno soul singer, Otis Clay, will share the spotlight with Adams, making for an unforgettable rhythm and blues twin bill. Adams will open the show, followed by a long set from Clay and a set closer with Adams. A high-five to club owner Bill FitzGerald, who salvaged the Adams gig after the rest of the singer's tour fell apart. "About three years ago I came through Chicago on Mother's Day and we jammed at B.L.U.E.S.," Adams said. "That's the only place I've performed. Even when the Burning Spear was open, we just passed through. I'm looking forward to it.
