This is the compelling life story of the man who helped shape music history, and gives a unique, first-hand insight into life in London during the late s and '70s.

    THE BRILLIANT MISTAKES [email protected] • 917.821.6262 THE BRILLIANT MISTAKES’ “DISTANT DRUMMING” SET FOR RELEASE OCTOBER 7 The Brilliant Mistakes—the New York City based band lauded for “restlessy catchy hooks, a clever turn of phrase and frothy, piano-driven pop with heart, soul and smarts” (The Boston Globe) are ready to unveil Distant Drumming, their new album set for release on October 7 on the band’s own Aunt Mimi’s Records. The album was produced by bassist Lincoln Schleifer (Levon Helm, Buddy Miller) and recorded at Lincoln’s Log Cabin in The Bronx, features guest musicians Mike Viola (The Candy Butchers, Walk Hard), Larry Campbell (Bob Dylan, Paul Simon) and Marc Shulman (Suzanne Vega) and was mastered by Fred Kevorkian (Ryan Adams, The White Stripes) in Hell’s Kitchen in Manhattan. Songwriter-bassist Erik Philbrook describes Distant Drumming as an album that musically and lyrically is about “finding and following the rhythms of your own life.” To that end the band sought to create a more organic album and delved deeper in the studio, experimenting with dynamics, arrangements, atmosphere, instrumentation and grooves to create music not only rich in meaning and emotion, but one that mixes blasts of majestic rock with meditative and moody acoustic pop and folk. The result is a ruthlessly thrilling album by a band that has long flown beneath the radar of the mainstream but are kindred spirits with such contemporaryAmericana envelope- pushers as Wilco, My Morning Jacket and Spoon. Distant Drumming benefits from the evolution of the band’s two songwriters—Alan Walker and Erik Philbrook— into separate but equally provocative lyricists.

  • Method to Our Madness As a New Beginning for Method to Our Madness Let Me Down Hard
    The last few years have been busy ones for Frankenstein 3000. After promoting their third full-length release, the well-received Where Do We Go From Here, for the good part of 2009, culminating with the band headlining the Love & Rockets Tribute CD Release Party, they spent a few months working on their second covers album and things did not slow down in 2010. Early in the year Frankenstein 3000 unleashed They’ll Be Waking Up Soon to more positive reviews; they served as the back-up band for legendary Dead Boys guitarist Cheetah Chrome as well as ex-Bongos leader Richard Barone; they put their unique stamp on songs by Queen, Devo, The Cars and Alice Cooper for a tributes on Main Man Records; they played numerous shows with David Johansen, recent Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame inductee Dennis Dunaway, The Batusis, Steve Conte & The Crazy Truth, Skid Row, Blue Coupe and a highly successful benefit show headlined by members of Bon Jovi; and front-man Keith Roth landed the lead role in an independent film, Let Me Down Hard. Throughout it all Frankenstein 3000 still found the time to record their strongest collection of songs yet. Method To Our Madness features 16 tracks, some of which have been revisited from earlier releases. Long-time fans may recognize titles like “Going Away”, “Everybody Else” and “Panic In Needle Park”, but the band feels that this is the first time these songs are being properly represented. “We decided to polish up some old gems, quite a few we had played live for a long time but never released” says guitarist/vocalist Keith Roth.

  • Song Stories
    Song Stories Music That Brings Back Memories and Emotions (Vol. 1) Kyle Bylin Song Stories Music That Brings Back Memories and Emotions (Vol. 1) Kyle Bylin © 2016 Kyle Bylin Contents CONTENTS 1 Introduction By Kyle Bylin Songs become a part of the story of our lives — something we take with us wherever we go. Inside of us, in our hearts and minds, their lyrics linger. We recall those words, but what we remember isn’t what they meant to the artist who wrote them. It’s what they mean to us. We interject ourselves into their songs, and it feels as though they mirror our own memories and emotions. Songs give us insight into those around us — those we love and hate. We see dysfunction in our relationships, come to understand the beauty and the darkness of our love, and gain empathy for the true nature of the human condition. Some songs make us happy, while others bring sadness. Some songs connect with our present, and others bring us back to the past. They help us recall the memories we have long forgotten. Some songs we simply enjoy because they don’t remind us of anyone or anything. Songs are tied to our personal identity and to particular moments in our lives. The more charged with emotion a chapter becomes, the more likely it is that a song will be associated with our memories of it. And not only with our memories of the events themselves, but with how we remember feeling. This is what music does for us. It connects with the stories of our lives.

  • COVER STORY Introduction Peermusic Was Founded in 1928 By
    COVER STORY Introduction Peermusic was founded in 1928 by Ralph S. Peer and continues to be privately owned by the Peer family. In 1923, working for the Okeh Record Company Ralph S. Peer made the first recording of a black artist performing the blues, "Crazy Blues" by Mamie Smith. It was the first R&B recording in the country and Ralph became a specialist in the music of the South, where he traveled as a talent scout. A year later he recorded Fiddlin'John Carson playing "Little Old Log Cabin Down The Lane," generally regarded as the first commercial country recording. Peer left Okeh when it was sold to the American Phonograph Company (later CBS) in 1927. When the Victor Talking Machine Company couldn't match his previous salary, together they formed a publishing company which held the copyrights of the songs he was recording. Two of his major finds were the Carter Family and also Jimmy Rodgers. In the 1930's he went to Puerto Rico and recorded Pedro Flores and Ralph Hernandez. In Mexico he discovered a new style of music called 'bolero' and signed the material of Augustin Lara. Peer then began traveling throughout South America finding music he then had his staff in the U.S. obtain English lyrics to and present to the big bands of the day. These Latin melodies quickly became standard repertoire for the big bands. Ralph's next move was to London in 1932, where he opened an office to establish a European operation. Offices then opened throughout the world from this base.

  • A Conversation with Amy Rigby by Frank Goodman
    A Conversation with Amy Rigby by Frank Goodman (Puremusic.com 5/2003) One of our main missions at Puremusic.com is discovering and proliferating what we feel is good pop music for grownups. Frequently these acts may have a retro sound of one era or another, sometimes several eras in a given record. Because only AAA radio will play a given percentage of these artists, many of them are flying under the radar. Some tour as bands, others make produced records and hit the road as solo artists in singer songwriter type venues, and open up shows or even tours for bands when opportunity knocks. One of the best and highest profile examples of this is Amy Rigby. If there is a woman out there writing funnier songs than Amy, we want to hear about it. Bittersweet, poignant—sure, she’s all that, too. But as the writer of “Tonight I’m Gonna Give the Drummer Some,” “I Hate Every Bone in Your Body But Mine” and “Are We Ever Gonna Have Sex Again?” she towers above the supposedly funny songwriters we’ve come across, especially the silly or overstated variety. Although she has brilliant and subtle songwriting cohorts in the likes of Bill DeMain, Steve Allen, and Bill Lloyd, she can and mostly does do it all by herself. Consider the first chorus on her new record Til The Wheels Fall Off (on Signature Sounds), from the song “Why Do I”: Why do I pull wings off butterflies Look for things that hurt my eyes I kiss the boys but I’m the one who cries Why do I get off on misery Loneliness feels good to me I’m happy when I’m all hung out to dry Why do I But when I call her funny, I’m also underselling her, because her keen vision into the fragility and fragmentation of the grownup condition goes beyond that.

  • 1 a Conversation with Jill Sobule by Frank Goodman
    A Conversation with Jill Sobule by Frank Goodman Puremusic 3/2002 I first saw Jill Sobule play in my early days in Nashville, ’89. In those days, before the 48 Hours story and the forgettable movie that centered around it, The Bluebird Café was a hip place for aspiring songwriters to hang out. Between the New Traditionalist movement in the late 80s and early 90s spearheaded by Randy Travis and the Steve Earle/Lyle Lovett wave, a lot of new blood was coming into town. Songwriters and singers of many descriptions were thinking that this looked like a pretty hip scene, and it was, for a little while. To the newcomer, there were so many good songwriters to be absorbed and emulated in rooms like The Bluebird that one could go out every night (and I did) and see people that were writing hits, or writing great songs. And the town got bigger, even the newcomers could feel it swell. In those days, before the country boom of the mid 90s (and the inevitable, subsequent bust of the late 90s) one of the new writers on the scene was a diminutive, blonde dynamo from Denver named Jill Sobule. She wasn’t playing the tiny Vagabond Travel Guitar just yet, which would soon come to be her trademark. She was playing very cool, jazzy pop songs on a nylon string with a keyboard player who had a million great sounds. By jazzy pop songs I mean here that they were inventive, cutting edge pop songs that used jazz chords, not that they sounded in any way like jazz standards.

  • The Bongos, Phantom Train (JEM Records): with the Recent Shuttering
    The Bongos, Phantom Train (JEM Records): With the recent shuttering of Hoboken’s famed rock venue Maxwell’s, one of the club’s (and the city’s) most famous exports, The Bongos , stepped back into the spotlight to bid it goodbye as the last act to perform there. Fronted by Richard Barone and James Mastro (now playing with Ian Hunter ), the group was one of the first "college rock" bands, scoring alterna-hits like "In the Congo" and "Numbers with Wings." This reissued album was originally recorded in 1986 after the band’s final RCA album, ‘85’s Beat Hotel , but never saw the light of day, and marks a reunion with the just- revived JEM label owner Marty Scott , who released the group’s 1982 full-length debut, Drums Along the Hudson , on the PVC imprint of his then vital Plainfield, NJ, import distributor. The remixed 14-track package, which features three previously unreleased recordings, offers the martial rhythms and shiny, tick-tock techno-pop hooks of the ‘80s on tracks like the first single, "My Wildest Dreams," which also combines British invasion vibes straight out of the Stones ’ "Under My Thumb:" and the shiny new Cars smell of "One Bold Stroke." At the same time, Primal Barone influences like T. Rex , John Lennon and Iggy circa "Gimme Danger" slip their way into the cover of Donovan ’s "Sunshine Superman," the psychedelic "Saturn Eyes" and the doomy "Roman Circus," respectively. One of the unreleased demos, "Under Someone’s Spell," proves the hidden link between the Feelies and Neil Diamond ’s "Cherry Cherry," while "Run to the Wild" echoes "Number with Wings" and the title track offers a moody, melodic harbinger of The Shins that makes you wonder what a collaboration between Barone and Danger Mouse might sound like.
