  • Nueva Mordida De La Serpiente Blanca
    Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Image not found or type unknown El CD Forevermore, de Whitesnake, nos pone ante una banda aguerrida.Autor: Internet Publicado: 21/09/2017 | 05:13 pm Nueva mordida de la serpiente blanca Publicado: Miércoles 21 septiembre 2011 | 09:37:42 pm. Publicado por: Joaquín Borges-Triana Después de tres años de la salida al mercado del disco titulado Good to be bad, el vocalista David Coverdale y su tropa de Whitesnake vuelven a la carga en el presente 2011. El pasado 25 de marzo fue puesto en circulación a nivel mundial el fonograma denominado Forevermore, decimoprimero en la carrera de esta vieja agrupación británica que, pese al tiempo transcurrido desde su aparición y a los muchos cambios de alineación en su nómina, persiste en reinventarse una y otra vez. Desde que uno empieza a escuchar los 14 temas recogidos en el CD, se da cuenta de que este es un material con profundo sabor retro, pletórico en reminiscencias de álbumes grabados por el ensemble entre fines de los 70 y la década de los 80. En tal sentido, cabe afirmar que estamos ante un puñado de composiciones e interpretaciones signadas por un sonido gordo y cortante, con una base rítmica bien empastada. Asimismo, es evidente que Coverdale y sus compañeros de grupo se propusieron al enfrentarse a la producción de este nuevo fonograma, hacer un retorno a lo que pudiera definirse como una propuesta del más clásico rock y blues metalero. Con una actual nómina en la que acompañan al vocalista David Coverdale los guitarristas Doug Aldrich y Reb Beach, así como el baterista Brian Tichy, Michael Devin en el bajo y el teclista Brian Ruedy, Forevermore se inicia con Steal your heart away, corte cuya introducción me lleva a evocar los tiempos ya lejanos de Love Hunter, uno de los trabajos discográficos de la banda que más he disfrutado personalmente, junto al afamado 1987.

  • By Dagmar Schultz AUDRE LORDE – HER STRUGGLES and HER Visionsi in This Presentation I Will Try to Explain How Audre Lorde Came
    By Dagmar Schultz AUDRE LORDE – HER STRUGGLES AND HER VISIONSi In this presentation I will try to explain how Audre Lorde came to Germany, what she meant to me personally and to Orlanda Women’s Publishers, and what effect her work had in Germany on Black and white women. In 1980, I met Audre Lorde for the first time at the UN World Women’s Conference in Copenhagen in a discussion following her reading. I knew nothing about her then, nor was I familiar with her books. I was spellbound and very much impressed with the openness with which Audre Lorde addressed us white women. She told us about the importance of her work as a poet, about racism and differences among women, about women in Europe, the USA and South Africa, and stressed the need for a vision of the future to guide our political praxis. On that evening it became clear to me: Audre Lorde must come to Germany for German women to hear her, her voice speaking to white women in an era when the movement had begun to show reactionary tendencies. She would help to pull it out of its provinciality, its over-reliance, in its politics, on the exclusive experience of white women. At that time I was teaching at the Free University of Berlin and thus had the opportunity to invite Audre Lorde to be a guest professor. In the spring of 1984 she agreed to come to Berlin for a semester to teach literature and creative writing. Earlier, in 1981, I had heard Audre Lorde and Jewish poet Adrienne Rich speaking about racism and antisemitism at the National Women’s Studies Association annual convention.
