ERIC CLAPTON Forever im Auftrag: medienAgentur Stefan Michel T 040-5149 1467 F 040-5149 1465 [email protected] ERIC CLAPTON Forever Man Das Beste aus drei Jahrzehnten mit seinen größten Hits, hochkarätigen Live-Versionen und klassischen Blues Songs! 3-CD/ 2-CD / 2-LP und Download VÖ: 08. Mai 2015 „CLAPTON Is God“ – so sprühten die Fans Anfang der siebziger Jahre an die Häuserwände Londons. Und doch stand der legendäre Songwriter, Sänger und Gitarrist, der es mit Bands wie Derek & The Dominos und Cream bereits damals zu absolutem Weltruhm gebracht hatte, erst am Anfang einer unglaublichen Karriere, die ihm bis heute satte 19 Grammys eingebracht hat. Songs wie Cocaine (ursprünglich eine J.J. Cale-Komposition) und Layla machten ERIC CLAPTON zu einem der erfolgreichsten Musiker der siebziger Jahre, und später folgten Hits wie My Father’s Eyes und das schicksalsträchtige Tears In Heaven, die ihn zu einer unsterblichen Ikone werden ließen. Nun erscheint die brandneue Werkschau Forever Man, die seine Karriere in einem Paket zusammenfasst, das klassische Studiotracks, hochkarätige Live-Aufnahmen und eine komplette Disc mit Songs enthält, auf der CLAPTON seiner Liebe zum Blues freien Lauf lässt. Die Kollektion begibt sich auf die Spuren der bekanntesten und besten Songs, die CLAPTON auf Reprise veröffentlicht hat, darunter die Grammy-ausgezeichneten Songs Change The World, Tears In Heaven und Bad Love. Zusätzlich gibt es auf Forever Man brillantes Material aus den ebenfalls mit Grammys bedachten Alben From The Cradle und Unplugged. Zu den Gastperformern gehören dabei hochkarätige Musiker wie B.B. King und J. J. Cale! Anlässlich seines 70. Geburtstages am 30. März hat ERIC CLAPTON überdies eine Tour mit neun Dates angekündigt, die ihn zweimal in den New Yorker Madison Square Garden (1.&2. Mai) und sieben Mal in die Royal Albert Hall in London (14.&15.,17.-21. und 23. Mai) führen werden. CLAPTON wird auf der Bühne von seiner Band begleitet werden, die aus Paul Carrack, Steve Gadd, Nathan East, Chris Stainton, Sharon White und Michelle John besteht. Im Vorprogramm wird sein langjähriger Begleiter Andy Fairweather-Low and the Low Riders spielen. Forever Man erscheint in verschiedenen Formaten: Als 3-CD, Doppel-CD, Doppel-Vinyl und in zwei verschiedenen Download-Konfigurationen. Das Paket enthält Liner-Notes des renommierten Rockjournalisten und Autoren Malcolm Dome. Tracklistings: 3CD and Digital Download Edition: CD1 - Studio 1. Gotta Get Over 2.

  • Eric Clapton
    ERIC CLAPTON BIOGRAFIA Eric Patrick Clapton nasceu em 30/03/1945 em Ripley, Inglaterra. Ganhou a sua primeira guitarra aos 13 anos e se interessou pelo Blues americano de artistas como Robert Johnson e Muddy Waters. Apelidado de Slowhand, é considerado um dos melhores guitarristas do mundo. O reconhecimento de Clapton só começou quando entrou no “Yardbirds”, banda inglesa de grande influência que teve o mérito de reunir três dos maiores guitarristas de todos os tempos em sua formação: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck e Jimmy Page. Apesar do sucesso que o grupo fazia, Clapton não admitia abandonar o Blues e, em sua opinião, o Yardbirds estava seguindo uma direção muito pop. Sai do grupo em 1965, quando John Mayall o convida a juntar-se à sua banda, os “Blues Breakers”. Gravam o álbum “Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton”, mas o relacionamento com Mayall não era dos melhores e Clapton deixa o grupo pouco tempo depois. Em 1966, forma os “Cream” com o baixista Jack Bruce e o baterista Ginger Baker. Com a gravação de 4 álbuns (“Fresh Cream”, “Disraeli Gears”, “Wheels Of Fire” e “Goodbye”) e muitos shows em terras norte americanas, os Cream atingiram enorme sucesso e Eric Clapton já era tido como um dos melhores guitarristas da história. A banda separa-se no fim de 1968 devido ao distanciamento entre os membros. Neste mesmo ano, Clapton a convite de seu amigo George Harisson, toca na faixa “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” do White Album dos Beatles. Forma os “Blind Faith” em 1969 com Steve Winwood, Ginger Baker e Rick Grech, que durou por pouco tempo, lançando apenas um album.

  • Georgie Fame
    Georgie Fame Born on 26th June 1943 in the industrial town of Leigh, Lancashire, his interest in music grew from family entertainment “sessions” at home and musical evenings in the church hall across the street, where his father played in an amateur dance band. Although he took piano lessons for a short time at the age of seven, it wasn’t until the advent of rock’n’roll on radio during the mid-fifties that young Georgie began to take the family piano seriously. Fats Domino, Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard were among his catalysts. Upon leaving school, shortly after his fifteenth birthday, he followed the family tradition and took a job as an apprentice cotton weaver in one of the many local mills. Leisure time, however, was spent playing piano in various pubs and with a local group, “The Dominoes”. In July 1959, at a summer holiday camp, Georgie was spotted by Rory Blackwell, the resident rock’n’roll bandleader, who offered the young singer/pianist a full time job. Goodbye, weaving shed. Rory and the Blackjacks departed for London, their hometown, when the summer season ended prematurely and Georgie went with them. The promised glamorous work did not materialise and the band broke up, but the determined young man from Leigh eventually took up a solo residency at The Essex Arms pub in London’s Dockland, where the kindly landlord provided a room to sleep in. In October of that year, the Marty Wilde Show was performing at the Lewisham Gaumont and Rory Blackwell arranged for Georgie to audition “live” for impressario Larry Parnes.

  • Rock the Blues Away
    ROCK THESE BLUES AWAY. The Recordings of John Lee Hooker since 1981 ROCK THESE BLUES AWAY The Recordings Of John Lee Hooker Since 1981 By Gary Hearn (Feb. 2006) Introduction In 1992 Les Fancout’s sessionography of John Lee Hooker – “Boogie Chillen” – was published in booklet form by Blues & Rhythm magazine (ed. Tony Burke). This pamphlet is intended to update Les’ work with all the known Hooker sessions since 1981. Though details on other, earlier, sessions have come to light through recent releases, I have excluded them from the scope of my research and it is left to others to publish those corrections and additions elsewhere. The recordings listed here come from the final phase of John’s career during what is known as the Rosebud era, the name of his management company. To my imperfect mind, the best – and darkest – of them found release on the “Boom Boom” album put out by Pointblank in 1993. This was also a period when blues artists were called upon to provide benevolent cameos to artists better known in the mainstream. John took part in many such sessions with varying degrees of success; whatever the finished product, his contributions were immediately recognisable. The compact discs in this survey are, as far as I can tell, the first UK issue shown listed in order of catalogue number for ease of cross-reference to the sessionography. Because record companies re-issue, re-package and licence their recordings, subsequent issues are not considered. None of the cd-singles listed are still available and are shown merely in evidence of the penetration of the “John Lee Hooker” brand.
