  • FOREIGNER Can't Slow Down (Rock FM / AOR / Westcoast)
    FOREIGNER Can't slow down (Rock FM / AOR / Westcoast) Année de sortie : 2009 Nombre de pistes : 13 Durée : 49' Support : MP3 Provenance : Acheté Je vais débuter cette chronique du retour aussi inespéré qu'inattendu d'une légende du Hard-Rock / Rock-FM par quelques chiffres : 1/ Premier album 1977 (Foreigner) Ce Can't Slow Down déboule donc 32 ans plus tard (jolie carrière tout de même !) et est le neuvième studio du groupe ! 2/ FOREIGNER a vendu plus de 65 millions de cds au monde. (Et c'est pas fini !) Après ses 3 remarquables et remarqués premiers albums (1977 Foreigner, 1978 Double Vison, 1979 Head Games), c'est en 1981 que le groupe explose les compteurs avec 4 (avec le géant John Mutt LANGE aux "manettes"). Agent Provocateur, 1984 laissera une place conséquente aux claviers et placera encore quelques hymnes (I Wanna Know What Love Is, That Was Yesterday) dans les charts mondiaux. La suite, c'est Inside Information en 1987, un bon album avec son single "Say You Will", puis le départ de son chanteur Lou GRAMM... Et avant son retour pour un agréable et calme Mr Moonlight en 1995, FOREIGNER offre un Unusual Heat inégal dont je retiens la ballade I'll Fight For You, avec un nouveau et excellent chanteur (Johnny EDWARDS). Vous noterez donc qu'il aura fallu attendre 14 ans pour que FOREIGNER livre un nouvel opus. Attente récompensé s'il en est ! FOREIGNER revient donc en 2009 avec une formule à 6 musiciens, comme à ses débuts. Mais des débuts justement, il ne reste que Mick JONES, notre anglais dont le duo avec Lou GRAMM, notre américain fit des miracles d'écritures par le passé ! En revanche, bonne pioche pour le choix du nouveau chanteur absolument prodigieux et nommé Kelly HANSEN.

  • Author David Hajdu Makes Songwriter Debut with ​Waiting for the Angel
    Author David Hajdu Makes Songwriter Debut With Waiting for the Angel, ​ Culminating A 5-Year Collaboration with Esteemed Multi-Genre Composers Jill Sobule, Fred Hersch, Renee Rosnes & Michael “Mickey” Leonard Out August 28th on Miranda Music Album Features Top-Call Vocalists & Musicians Including Jo Lawry, Karen Oberlin, Michael Winther, Steve Wilson, Steven Bernstein, Charles Pillow, Peter Bernstein, Dave Eggar, Sean Smith & Carl Allen After years of writing about songs in books and essays, David Hajdu has taken up writing them. Over the past five years, Hajdu has been working with several esteemed composers of jazz, pop and theater music: the pianists Renee Rosnes and Fred Hersch, the alternative-folk singer-songwriter Jill Sobule, and the veteran Broadway composer Michael (Mickey) Leonard. The result is Waiting for the Angel, a collection of quirkily artful songs that defy easy ​ ​ categorization. The album will be released by Miranda Music as a CD and digital download, with a bonus track, on August 28. An all-star group of artists came together to record the material: singers Jo Lawry, Karen Oberlin, and Michael Winther; pianists Rosnes and Hersch, playing the songs they composed; additional pianist Tedd Firth; and a band with saxophonist Steve Wilson, trumpeter Steven Bernstein, guitarist Peter Bernstein; oboist Charles Pillow, cellist Dave Eggar, bassist Sean Smith, and drummer Carl Allen. Much like Hajdu's writing in prose, the lyrics on Waiting for the Angel tell unexpected tales ​ ​ from unconventional vantage points. "David Hajdu's lyrics tell complex and moving stories -- always from his unique point of view," says Fred Hersch. "They are so easy to work with, the songs almost write themselves." Jill Sobule adds, "I wish I wrote those lyrics myself." As Renee Rosnes says, "When David first ​ asked if I might be interest to write some songs together, I was very intrigued.
