Prioriry Hutii Acts to Follow Top PRioRiry traffic • for fro m home RA HIC, "FAR FRO M H O ME," YIRqIN After Steve's multi format exposure overload through the late '80s, this UnSingle is one Tbrilliant move — and career course correction aside, it's damn catchy in a late '60s kind of way. No synth. No horns. No female vocalists. That's not to say that those ingredients couldn't once again be combined for Platinum payback. But what Winwood and Capaldi needed — and have realized — on this go round is a solid blast from the past The flute (reminiscent of John Barleycorn) is what you notice first, followed by the trademark minor chords and bluesy extended song structure, complete with plenty of period piece Hammond work and just the proper amount of well placed fuzz tone. Gotta love the fact that you can't make out all the words on first pass, too, just like in the old days. It might also be significant that Steve and Jim wrote the tune, as opposed to Steve's collaborations •••,,TrefelW with Will Jennings that most recently blanketed the airwaves. Be aware that other than Capaldi's signature stick work, Winwood plays all the instruments, flute included. Also be sure to make max use of the Pro-CD's live version of "Glad" from Winwood's last tour.

  • Beck Nach Fast Sechs Jahren Mit Neuem Material US-Musiker Kündigt Für Februar Eine Neue Platte An
    Innovative und schillernde Persönlichkeit der Alternative-Szene: Beck kündigt nach fast sechs Jahren neues Material an. Beck nach fast sechs Jahren mit neuem Material US-Musiker kündigt für Februar eine neue Platte an 07. Dezember 2013, Von: Redaktion, Foto(s): Peter Hapak Der US-amerikanische Gitarrist und Sänger Beck zählt zu den besonders kreativen und schillernden Figuren der internationalen Alternative-Szene. In Deutschland schaffte Beck im Jahr 1994 mit dem Song „Loser“ aus dem im gleichen Jahr erschienen Album „Mellow Gold“ seinen Durchbruch. Für Februar 2014 kündigt Beck sein neues Album „Morning Phase“ an, das erste mit ganz neuen Songs seit „Modern Guilt“ aus dem Jahr 2008. Musik von der Stange, das war noch nie die Sache von Beck, der 1970 als David Bek Hansen geboren wurde. Beck hatte schon immer den Hang zum etwas unkonventionellem Musizieren, in seinen Song fanden sich schon in den Neunzigern Samples und Elemente aus so unterschiedlichen Genres wie Folk oder HipHop. Das galt vor rund 20 Jahren als innovativ und speziell und nicht zuletzt deshalb war der Musiker regelmäßig ausführlich behandeltes Thema in der Musikpresse. Zu seinen Album Klassikern zählt das 2002 veröffentlichte „Sea Change“ und in einer klanglich recht ähnlichen Form soll auch das neue Beck-Werk „Morning Phase“ daherkommen. Als „begleitendes Stück“ zu „Sea Change“ soll es von Experten beschrieben worden sein, die schon in das neue Material des Musikers reinhören konnten, Fans und Insidern ist damit wohl eine Orientierung geben. Viele der Musiker, die bereits vor gut elf Jahren an „Sea Change“ beteiligt waren, konnte Beck auch für die Aufnahmen von „Morining Phase“ gewinnen, darunter Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Joey Waronker, Smokey Hormel, Roger Joseph Manning Jr.

  • Dear Friends That Love Music
    Thorcraft Cobra ~ The Distance Thorcraft Cobra have perfected the seemingly lost art of combining big, radio-friendly hooks with big, classic-rock guitars.” - LA Weekly “It's not really a record people can bone to, so it better be cerebral.” – Billy Zimmer First off, despite their righteously badass nom de artiste Thorcraft Cobra are not purveyors of weed- hazed, beer-soaked SoCal Throttle Rock. Together, Billy Zimmer (Brown Eyed Susans) and Tammy Glover (Sparks) combine a knack for concise pop songwriting, a gift for crafting immediately engaging melody, and impeccable taste in rock and roll sonics into something that is both fresh and undeniable. Zimmer and Glover first crossed paths when their respective acts signed to the same label. “I started as a fan of his guitar tone” relates Glover, “but quickly fell for his wit and songwriting skills.” Zimmer’s band, Brown Eyed Susans, had moved to Los Angeles, recorded a lost classic Afraid of Heights with Jason Falkner (Beck, Air, Paul McCartney, Jellyfish) producing, and was seemingly poised for success. Meanwhile, Tammy became the drummer for brothers Ron and Russell Mael in their iconic band, Sparks, and toured the world. When Brown Eyed Susans imploded in a cloud of dust, Zimmer retreated to his depressing North Hollywood wood-paneled hermitage to lick his wounds. He started working on some rough demos, and decided to play a few for his labelmate. “I wasn't super confident in my work. Then I played some it for Tammy, and she was like, "whhhaaatttt". And told me that it was good, and that she should play drums on it and we should put it out” explains Zimmer.

During the first half of the 1990s, pop music vastly outnumbered underground/experimental music. It was the revenge of melody, after a quarter of a century of progressive sounds. A cycle that began with the demise of the Beatles and the rise of alternative/progressive rock, and that continued with the German and Canterbury schools of the 1970s, and then punk-rock and the new wave, and peaked with the alt-rock and college- pop of the 1980s, came to an abrupt, grinding halt in the 1990s. The more fashionable and rewarding route was, however, the one that coasted the baroque pop of latter-day Beach Boys, Van Dyke Parks, Big Star and XTC, the one that coupled catchy refrains and lush arrangements. The single most important school may have been San Francisco's, which had originated in the 1980s with the Sneetches. Jellyfish (2), featuring guitarist Jason Falkner, wrote perhaps the most impeccable melodies of the time. Bellybutton (1990), a milestone of naive, bubblegum melodic music inspired by Merseybeat and later Beach Boys, was both cartoonish and shimmering, while the arrangements on Spilt Milk (1993) were almost baroque.
