  • Robert Plant and the Sensational Space Shifters
    2014 Next Wave Festival NONESUCH RECORDS AT BAM Greetings At BAM, we work with fantastic artists from all over the world. It is no coincidence that time and again, we have presented artists who have found a recording home with Nonesuch. To help celebrate the label’s 50th year, we are showcasing a diverse slate of the imprint’s adventurous creators in 14 different programs—including many alumni, and quite a few who make exciting BAM debuts in the 2014 Next Wave. The range is astonishing. It includes artists who have revolutionized the contemporary classical canon, or have expanded it in ingenious ways. Those based in idioms like jazz, folk, and bluegrass who have honed remarkably distinct voices. International stars reaching passionate new audiences. And rock icons crafting fresh collaborations while reminding us of why they’re so popular to begin with. We salute Nonesuch on this milestone, and thank its president, Bob Hurwitz, for working with BAM to bring you this terrific lineup of intrepid musical artists. Sincerely, Karen Brooks Hopkins Joseph V. Melillo 2014 Next Wave Festival NONESUCH RECORDS AT BAM Greetings BAM started the Next Wave Festival in 1983, a year before I got to Nonesuch. One day, out of the blue, Harvey Lichtenstein, the head of BAM, called my office at ECM Records, where I worked at that time, and insisted that I go that night to see a new show he was producing, The Gospel at Colonus. I dutifully changed my plans that night and saw the show—when Harvey called you had to take it seriously! And he was right—the next morning I called Mo Ostin, the head of our parent company, Warner Bros.

Classificado como um artista “mainstream interseccional”, assim proposto pelos autores, Plant personifica a autenticidade do rock ao mesmo tempo em que sustenta a tradição dos seus tempos como vocalista do extinto grupoLed Zeppelin e ao buscar uma autonomia criativa em cada trabalho. Não obstante, está imerso aos ditames mercadológicos que envolvem o cenário musical. Para discutir essas questões, adotamos como corpus analítico os dez trabalhos solo do músico, os quais englobam um período que tem início em 1982, com Pictures at eleven, e vai até a sua última produção, Lullaby and...The ceaseless roar, lançado em 2014. Palavras-chave: rock, música popular massiva, mainstream, criatividade, mercado e consumo. En este trabajo se propone un estudio de la carrera de la cantante británica Robert Plant con respecto a los aspectos relacionados con el mundo de la música popular de masas (Janotti JUNIOR, 2006; 2007).

Downloaded from http://hdl.handle.net/10072/22996 Griffith Research Online https://research-repository.griffith.edu.au 1 ‘Things They Do Look Awful Cool:’ Ageing Rock Icons and Contemporary Youth Audiences Abstract: This article addresses the continuing appeal of ageing rock icons, for example, Pink Floyd, Robert Plant and Jimmy Page, for contemporary youth audiences. The article argues that much of the attraction of such artists for young audiences stems from the way in which they are used to position the development – and cultural resonance – of a late twentieth century rock history (of which young fans have no direct memory or experience). In examining this contention, the article considers the significance of issues such as the relevance of late 1960s and early 1970s rock music in parent-child relationships, the function of visual media in the historical representation of rock icons in the ‘post-digital’ age, the significance of classic album and tribute band performances in portraying ‘freeze-frame’ fashion the work of ageing rock icons, and the function of ‘classic rock’ as the signature tune of a golden age. Keywords: youth; rock; ageing; audience; culture. Address correspondence to: School of Arts, Gold Coast campus, Griffith University, QLD 4222, Australia.

    jimmy page discography torrent download Robert Plant – Discography (1982 – 2014) Robert Plant – Discography (1982 – 2014) EAC Rip | 45xCD + DVD | FLAC/WV Image + Cue + Log | Full Scans Included Total Size: 29.4 GB | 3% RAR Recovery STUDIO ALBUMS | COMPILATION | BOX SET | COLLABORATIVE ALBUMS Label: Various | Genre: Blues Rock, Country Rock. In 1968, a naïve young singer from the Black Country hills in England named Robert Plant was discovered wailing the blues by veteran session guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist/keyboardist John Paul Jones. When Plant recommended his friend John Bonham as the drummer, one of the most successful bands in rock history was born: Led Zeppelin. But the group that started with such force also ended in flames after 12 years, as Bonham’s death from alcohol poisoning in 1980 split the band after nine albums. The remaining members went their separate ways, but Bonham’s death hit Plant particularly hard. Starting his solo career in 1982 with his Zeppelin-like Pictures at Eleven album, Plant would use a slew of great drummers over the next few years, including Phil Collins, Cozy Powell, Barriemore Barlow, and Richie Hayward. Collins appeared on the 1983 follow-up, The Principle of Moments, and Plant achieved a lighter touch somewhere between Genesis and Zeppelin’s quieter side with tracks like “In the Mood” and “Big Log.” But the singer would feed his Elvis Presley infatuation on 1984’s The Honeydrippers, Vol. 1, teaming with Page and other guests on influential roots rock material. ― Allmusic. 1.
