  • Talento Sharona
    Talento Sharona THE KNACK: IL FENOMENO “SHARONA” THE KNACK, “IL TALENTO”: questo è il nome della band di Los Angeles capitanata da Doug Fieger (chitarra e voce) e Berton Averre (chitarra) che ha segnato il mondo della musica a partire dalla fine degli anni settanta! A completare il quartettoPrescott Niles (basso) e Bruce Gary (batteria). Una delle band meno prolifiche del panorama Rock, ma sicuramente tra le più incisive. Una sola canzone che ha reso THE KNACK immortali: My Sharona! Con questo capolavoro THE KNACK del compianto Fieger (Doug Fieger è morto nel 2010 all’età di 57 anni per un tumore cerebrale; n.d.a.) hanno scalato le vette delle classifiche di quasi tutti i paesi del mondo rimanendoci fino ai giorni nostri. My Sharona è infatti la canzone più ascoltata da intere generazioni. Sono disposto a sfidare chiunque abbia più di 12 anni a non conoscere questo simbolo del Rock targato anni settanta… ottanta, novanta, duemila, duemilaedieci e pure venti! Moltissimi sono i musicisti che hanno adorato le canzoni di Doug & Co. ed alcuni hanno continuato a suonare la cover di My Sharona nei loro concerti, ricordo solo questi mostri sacri del Rock: METALLICA, FOO FIGHTERS, NIRVANA e ci metto pure i TIMORIA dell’amico Omar Pedrini. THE KNACK sono stati spesso sottovalutati, nonostante abbiano prodotto pezzi di grandissimo valore come Good Girls Don’t e Baby Talks Dirty. Solo My Sharona però ha tributato al Combo californiano un successo strabiliante. Il riff iniziale è uno dei più celebri e riconoscibili del Rock, forse anche più famoso dell’intro di Smoke on the Water dei DEEP PURPLE.
