    Mixed Media December Online Supplement | Long Island Pulse http://www.lipulse.com/blog/article/mixed-media-december-online-supp... currently 43°F and mostly cloudy on Long Island search advertise | subscribe | free issue Mixed Media December Online Supplement Published: Wednesday, December 09, 2009 U.K. Music Travelouge Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out and Gimmie Shelter As a followup to our profile of rock photographer Ethan Russell in the November issue, we will now give a little more information on the just-released Rolling Stones projects we discussed with Russell. First up is the reissue of the Rolling Stones album Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out!. What many consider the best live rock concert album of all time is now available from Abcko in a four-disc box set. Along with the original album there is a disc of five previously unreleased live performances and a DVD of those performances. There is a also a bonus CD of five live tracks from B.B. King and seven from Ike & Tina Turner, who were the opening acts on the tour. There is also a beautiful hardcover book with an essay by Russell, his photographs, fans’ notes and expanded liner notes, along with a lobby card-sized reproduction of the tour poster. Russell’s new book, Let It Bleed (Springboard), is now finally out and it’s a stunning visual look back on the infamous tour and the watershed Altamont concert. Russell doesn’t just provide his historic photos (which would be sufficient), but, like in his previous Dear Mr. Fantasy book, he serves as an insightful eyewitness of the greatest rock tour in history and rock music’s 60’s live Waterloo.
  • Beatles, Pink Floyd Engineer, Alan Parsons Rips Audiophiles

    Beatles, Pink Floyd Engineer, Alan Parsons Rips Audiophiles

    Beatles, Pink Floyd Engineer, Alan Parsons Rips Audiophiles Alan Parsons, producer, musician and sound engineer of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, says audiophiles overpay for equipment while ignoring room acoustics. In an exclusive interview with CE Pro, Alan Parsons, renowned sound engineer for Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon and for the Beatles, says hi-fi pros focus too much on equipment and brand names, when they should put more energy into room acoustics. He also says some surround- sound systems “really aren’t that bad.” All this from the audio wizard behind Dark Side of the Moon, and the name sake of the Alan Parson’s Project. Parsons broke into the music industry in the late 1960s when he was hired by Abbey Road Studios to work as an assistant engineer. As an assistant engineer, Parsons’ career started at a point where most music lovers only dream of reaching - working on the last two Beatles’ albums. As a full-fledged engineer, Parsons worked on projects with Paul McCartney and the Hollies, but it was his efforts on the benchmark album Dark Side of the Moon that launched his career. Throughout the rest of the 1970s and 1980s, Parsons released several albums under the name of Alan Parsons Project (APP). The 1990s marked a shift in direction for Parsons that was highlighted by his dropping of “Project” from his band name. As he entered the 2000s, Parsons continued to release new music, which includes his first foray into the electronica genre when he released 2004’s A Valid Path.

For several years, we’ve presented pieces commissioned by the best modern composers for our talented musicians, continuing the BPO’s tradition of contributing to classical music’s future. In 1946, the BPO made the premiere recording of the Shostakovich Leningrad Symphony. Music director Lukas Foss was also a renowned composer who regularly programmed world premieres of the works of himself and his contemporaries.
  • ALAN PARSONS Eye 2 Eye - Live in Madrid (Rock)

    ALAN PARSONS Eye 2 Eye - Live in Madrid (Rock)

    ALAN PARSONS Eye 2 eye - live in madrid (Rock) Année de sortie : 2010 Nombre de pistes : 13 Durée : 68' Support : MP3 Provenance : Reçu du label Formé en 1975 par Alan PARSONS et Eric WOOLFSON, et vite rejoints par de nombreux autres musiciens de renom, les anglais d'ALAN PARSONS PROJECT ont jusqu'en 1990 (et encore maintenant !) "inondé" à satiété les ondes radiophoniques du monde entier avec leurs hits que sont les Eye In The Sky et son prologue Sirius, Don't Answer Me, Psychobabble, I Wouldn't Want To Be like You et autres Games People Play. Après une dizaine d'albums, quelques live plus ou moins "pirates", des compilations best of, l'aventure prend fin et Alan PARSONS continue seul sa carrière sous son nom (je me permets ici de vous renvoyer vers, par exemple, le site internet de BIG BANG et son dossier sur le groupe pour une bibliographie discographique riche et fouillée !). Enregistré en mai 2004 à Madrid en Espagne, Alan PARSONS (claviers, guitare acoustique et chant), ici accompagné de P.J OLSSON (guitare acoustique et chant), G. TOWNSEND (guitares et chant), S. MURPHY (batterie), J. MONTAGNA (basse) et M. FOCARAZZO (claviers), nous offrent un superbe live ou quasiment tous les hits cités ci-dessus du ALAN PARSONS PROJECT s'y trouvent enchaînés. Alan revisite une partie des albums du groupe, de I Robot (1977) à Ammonia Avenue (1984). Et pour les fans quarantenaires qui ont "marché" au son de ses hymnes dans leur jeunesse, ces 13 titres respirent le bonheur et plaquent des retours en arrière chargés d'émotions et de souvenirs pittoresques ! Souvent étiquetée Rock Progressif puis Pop Rock, la musique du groupe est à rapprocher des PINK FLOYD par exemple.

    “The Dark Side of the Moon”—Pink Floyd (1973) Added to the National Registry: 2012 Essay By: Daniel Levitin (Guest Post)*

    “The Dark Side of the Moon”—Pink Floyd (1973) Added to the National Registry: 2012 Essay by: Daniel Levitin (guest post)* Dark Side of the Moon Angst. Greed. Alienation. Questioning one's own sanity. Weird time signatures. Experimental sounds. In 1973, Pink Floyd was a somewhat known progressive rock band, but it was this, their ninth album, that catapulted them into world class rock-star status. “The Dark Side of the Moon” spent an astonishing 14 years on the “Billboard” album charts, and sold an estimated 45 million copies. It is a work of outstanding artistry, skill, and craftsmanship that is popular in its reach and experimental in its grasp. An engineering masterpiece, the album received a Grammy nomination for best engineered non-classical recording, based on beautifully captured instrumental tones and a warm, lush soundscape. Engineer Alan Parsons and Mixing Supervisor Chris Thomas, who had worked extensively with The Beatles (the LP was mastered by engineer Wally Traugott), introduced a level of sonic beauty and clarity to the album that propelled the music off of any sound system to become an all- encompassing, immersive experience. In his 1973 review, Lloyd Grossman wrote in “Rolling Stone” magazine that Pink Floyd’s members comprised “preeminent techno-rockers: four musicians with a command of electronic instruments who wield an arsenal of sound effects with authority and finesse.” The used their command to create a work that introduced several generations of listeners to art-rock and to elements of 1950s cool jazz. Some reharmonization of chords (as on “Breathe”) was inspired by Miles Davis, explained keyboardist Rick Wright.
