THE BAND 40 Jahre the Last Waltz im Auftrag: medienAgentur Stefan Michel T 040-5149 1467 F 040-5149 1465 [email protected] THE BAND 40 Jahre The Last Waltz Vier brandneue Jubiläums-Editionen des historischen Abschiedskonzertes! Darunter eine Sammler-Edition mit dem bisher unveröffentlichten Skript des Shootings von Martin Scorcese! Ab 11. November über Rhino Es war Thanksgiving im Jahr 1976, als THE BAND im Winterland Theatre in San Francisco zum allerletzten Mal auf die Bühne gingen. Das Konzert, das passenderweise als The Last Waltz angekündigt wurde, ging als eine der meistgeehrten Performances in die Geschichte der Musik ein. Nicht zuletzt auch, weil Rick Danko, Levon Helm, Garth Hudson, Richard Mamel und Robbie Robertson von einer brillanten All-Star-Gruppe von damals schon legendären Musikpionieren unterstützt wurden, darunter Eric Clapton, Neil Diamond, Bob Dylan, Ronnie Hawkins, Dr. John, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, Muddy Waters und Neil Young. Der spektakuläre Abend wurde von Regisseur Martin Scorcese auf Film gebannt und im April 1978 in den Filmtheatern gezeigt. The Last Waltz gilt bis heute als einer der besten Konzertfilme, die je gedreht wurden. Rhino feiert das Jubiläum von The Last Waltz mit der 40th Anniversary Edition, die in vier unterschiedlichen Formaten erscheint und zum ersten Mal den Film mit der Musik zusammenbringt. Drei der Formate werden am 11. November veröffentlicht, die umfangreiche und luxuriöse Collector’s Edition kommt am 9. Dezember. Die Formate • 40th Anniversary Edition (2-CD) – Original-Soundtrack mit neu gemastertem Audio von den Original- Mastertapes auf zwei CDs. • 40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition (4-CD/Blu-Ray) – Der gesamte Audio-Mitschnitt des Konzerts mit Aufnahmen von der Probe und Outtakes und dem The Last Waltz-Film auf Blu-Ray. • 40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition Vinyl (6-LP) – Der gesamte Audio-Mitschnitt des Konzerts mit Aufnahmen von der Probe und Outtakes erstmalig auf 180g-Vinyl , in einer kunstvoll gestalteten Lift-Top- Box. • 40th Anniversary Collector’s Edition (4-CD/2-Blu-Ray) – Ab. 9. Dezember; limitiert auf 2500 Exemplare. Enthält: - Den gesamten Audio-Mitschnitt des Konzerts - The Last Waltz-Film auf Blu-ray. - Eine zweite Blu-Ray-Disc mit einem selten gezeigten Interview mit Martin Scorsese und Robbie Robertson aus dem Jahr 1990, eine Fotogalerie und den 5.1-Audiomix des Originalalbums. - Ein 300-seitiges, in rotes Kunstleder gebundenes Buch, das die vollständige Replikation des Shooting-Skripts von Scorcese enthält sowie seltene und bisher ungezeigte Fotos, Skizzen vom Set, drei aufklappbare Storyboards und ein Vorwort von Scorsese. Als 4CD/Blu-Ray-Set und - zum ersten Mal – als 6 LP-Set präsentiert die 40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition des Original-Soundtracks satte 54 Tracks, darunter das gesamte Konzert sowie Aufnahmen aus den Proben und Outtakes. Zu den Rare Tracks gehören Performances, die nicht im Film zu sehen sind, zum Beispiel Furry Sings The Blues mit Joni Mitchell und All Our Past Times mit Eric Clapton sowie Probeaufnahmen von Caravan mit Van Morrison, Such a Night mit Dr. John und King Harvest (Has Surely Come), das nicht im Konzert gespielt wurde. Die CD-Version ist mit neu geschriebenen Liner-Notes des renommierten Musikfachmanns David Fricke und Ben Fing-Torres ausgestattet. Überdies enthält sie einen zeitgenössischen Essay aus dem Jahre 1977 von Emmett Grogan. Die 40th Anniversary Collector’s Edition wird auf weltweit 2500 Exemplare limitiert und enthält eine Replikation des Original-Shooting-Skripts von Scorcese. Sobald der Film fertig war, ließ Scorsese zwei Exemplare des Skripts in rotes Leder binden – ein Exemplar für sich selbst und ein weiteres als Geschenk für Robbie Robertson, das sich inzwischen in der Rock’n’Roll Hall Of Fame befindet. Die Collector’s Edition enthält zusätzlich ein Vorwort von Scorcese und einen Essay des Drehbuchautoren Mardik Martin. Während des The Last Waltz 40th Anniversary wird Robertson sehr beschäftigt sein: Am 15. November veröffentlicht er über Crown Archetype seine neuen Memoiren „Testimony“, in denen er schließlich seine eigene, faszinierende Geschichte der Band erzählt, die die Musikgeschichte veränderte. Er beschreibt darin seine außergewöhnliche und persönliche Reise und seine kreative Freundschaft mit einigen der großartigsten Künstler des vergangenen halben Jahrhunderts. Am 11. November wird er über UMe überdies eine neue musikalische Anthologie gleichen Titels veröffentlichen. Die Sammlung von 18 Songs, die als Komplement zu seinen Memoiren von Robertson selbst zusammengestellt wurde, präsentiert einen Mix aus Live-Aufnahmen und Studio-Recordings aus seiner gesamten Karriere.

  • 1974 Tour with the Band
    BOB DYLAN / THE BAND (a collectors guide to the 74 Tour) BOB DYLAN / THE BAND - a collectors guide to the 74 Tour “There are two problems with the 1974 tour: the tapes are crap and Dylan‟s performances are crap.” – C. Heylin, Telegraph 32 pg 86. Introduction This booklet / File (like the anonymous companion volume “Songs of the Underground” for RTR) is intended to document the audio resources available to collectors concerning the 1974 tour with the Band. It is intended to supplement and possibly correct the three major resources available to collectors (Krogsgaard, Dundas & Olof‟s files). Several PA tapes have emerged since Krogsgaard was last updated, and (I believe) there are errors in Dundas (concerning the PA tapes from 11 Feb 1974) that I wished to address. Additionally, none of these references (except for one full listing in Krogsgaard) include the Band sets. While details are difficult to obtain, I have included details of about three-quarters of the Band sets. It is hoped that readers on the web may contribute more information. I believe that the Band was a significant contributor to the 1974 Tour and should be included in any 1974 Tour documentation. I have also identified the sources for the Vinyl and CD bootlegs, where my resources allowed. Often the attributions on Bootlegs are misleading, incomplete or wrong. As an example „Before and After the Flood‟ claims to be from MSG NYC 30.1.1974 when it is actually a combination of the PA tapes from 31.1.74 (evening) and 11.2.74 (evening).

  • We Can Succinctly Outline Some Points of Canadianness Converging with Southernness in an Array of Band Songs, Including
    We can succinctly outline some points of Canadianness converging with southernness in an array of Band songs, including: • musicality :The Band’s amazing amalgams of blues, jazz, rockabilly, country, folk, R&B/soul, blues-based rock, and gospel that summon variegated ideas of southernness. Toronto-born guitarist and primary songwriter Robbie Robertson proposes a somewhat misty-eyed account of the U.S. South as inherently seeping music. When he first arrived down on the Mississippi Delta from Canada in the early 1960s, he realized it was “the middle of the wagon of rock ‘n’ roll . Everything was more musically oriented, and 1 didn’t know if it was coming from the people or just from the air.” Probably not. But the music often is driven by and in turn drives this mythos of autochthonous southern musicality, in the teeth of the highly, meticulously constructed impetus of The Band’s applications, or appropriations, of said “natural-born” regional musicality. Their arch command of heightened artifice, to the point of self-consciously garish showmanship, in their reproductions of southern musicality is evident, for instance, in “The W. S. Walcott Medicine Show,” which simulates the swirling energy and surrealist fare of F. S. Wolcott’s Original Rabbit Foot’s Minstrels, a traveling show that Helm witnessed when he was a boy down South.• • rurality: The un-urban and un-urbane are key in The Band’s songs, set both North and South. Country living comes with costs (difficult economic conditions) and benefits (less cluttered surroundings and ecological beauty and peace). Such touting of foundational ruralness appears notably in “King Harvest (Has Surely Come),” which references attempts by the Trade Union Unity League, a branch of the Communist Party USA, to organize farmers into unions in the Depression-era South.

Abstract The diploma thesis deals with the emergence of Canadian popular music and the development of music genres that enjoyed the greatest popularity in Canada. A significant part of the thesis is devoted to an investigation of conditions connected to the relation of Canadian music and Canadian sense of identity and uniqueness. Further, an account of Canadian radio broadcasting and induction of regulating acts which influenced music production in Canada in the second half of the twentieth century are given. Moreover, the effectiveness and contributions of these regulating acts are summarized and evaluated. Last but not least, the main characteristics of the music style of a female singer songwriter Joni Mitchell are examined.

  • Acadian Fiddling Traditions
    Acadian Fiddling Traditions !by Devon Léger When two Acadians meet, the first things we ask each other are along the lines of “Where are you from,” Where’s your family from,” or “What’s your last name?” Acadians are people of a diaspora, a forced migration that spread from our homeland in Eastern Canada throughout the Western world, and to this day there’s a kind of inbred need in us to try and trace our roots back to some kind of common ground. That diaspora is why, try as we might, it’s so hard to define Acadian traditional music. Each region where Acadians settled has its own traditions, and Acadians have always been very accepting and curious about surrounding cultures. Acadians are also a pacifistic people. That’s part of the legend of the Acadians, that by choosing not to choose sides in the French-English wars, we were expelled from Nova Scotia by the British in 1755, an event known as Le Grand Dérangement, or the Great Deportation. It’s a kind of spirit that lasts to this day in the Acadian willingness to accept new influences and new ideas, certainly in music. In a sense, this differentiates Acadians in Canada from our French-speaking cousins in Québec. Québécois culture has a strong streak of independence from the Anglophone world that you don’t find in Acadian culture or music (though early Québécois musicians were just as happy to borrow from Anglophone sources). This also explains why you’ll hear so little traditional Acadian music when you travel to New Brunswick or Nova Scotia, but will hear lots of Down East fiddling, Cape Breton Scottish fiddling, Acadian bluegrass, or straight country.

    18024-05 Faragher Forum 3/2/07 8:53 AM Page 82 “A Great and Noble Scheme”: Thoughts on the Expulsion of the Acadians IN THE AUTUMN OF 1755 OFFICERS AND TROOPS from New England, acting under the authority of the colonial governors of Nova Scotia and Massachusetts, systematically rounded up more than 7,000 Acadians who lived in communities along the shores of the Bay of Fundy. Men, women, and children alike were crowded into transport vessels and deported in small groups to the other British colonies. Many families were separated, some never to meet again. The remaining 10,000 to 12,000 Acadians managed to escape and spent years as refugees. Many took up arms in resistance. The campaign of removal continued for eight years, by which time a total of more than 10,000 Acadians had been forced from their homes and dispersed widely across the Atlantic world. Meanwhile, their property was plundered, their communities were torched and their lands were seized. Some of the most appalling violence occurred at the site of present-day Fredericton, New Brunswick, in a village called Sainte-Anne along both sides of the St. John River, which was home to approximately 1,000 Acadians. In November 1758, Colonel Robert Monckton, in command of 2,000 troops, ascended the river as far as present-day Gagetown, leaving a swath of destruction on both banks; he succeeded in capturing few of the Acadians living there, though, as most of them had fled upriver to Sainte-Anne. To remedy this, two months later in February 1759 Monckton sent a company of 15 New England rangers, under the command of Lieutenant Moses Hazen of Massachusetts, to strike that community.
