Music Appreciation 2013 MUSIC APPRECIATION 2012 - 2013 OCTOBER 2012 The Music Appreciation Group is boldly going where no other music groups have gone before. We are attempting to cover all forms of recorded music to widen everyone's appreciation. Individuals will bring in a piece of music to be played and discussed. Initial interests appear to include Classical, Opera, Jazz, Blues, Rock and fusions in between. Music can be from MP3, CD, Cassette, or Vinyl (Well - we've all been around for a while. No 8 track cartridges though) DECEMBER 2012 The Group met in the Nags Head, as before, and there was no losing battle with an amplifier this time so we got straight into the recordings people brought in. A good range of music poured forth. We started with a local band 'North Sea International' doing Parisienne Walkways, through bluegrass music, Cat Stevens, Tony Christie, Runrig, Fleetwood Mac, Lindisfarne, Eagles, to Silent Night by Mahalia Jackson. Probably the most impressive track was Luiyang River by young Chinese piano virtuoso Di Xiao who had been playing at the Royal Concert Hall a few weeks earlier. The cultural highlight? - If you've never heard Rolf Harris's version of 'Stairway to Heaven' you missed a treat. JANUARY 2013 The Music Appreciation Group continues with its mix of all and any style of music – dependent on what members bring in. We had Verdi’s Hebrew Slaves, English Folk, Rock, Cajun, Sam Cooke, Nigel Kennedy, Buena Vista Orchestra, Reggae, Gregorian Chants, Traffic, Bob Dylan, Hugh Laurie, Jimi Hendrix and others. FEBRUARY 2013 A bumper compilation album; an eclectic mix of music brought in by members. We ranged through (in approximate order): Gershwin – Beethoven - Shin Kicker (a local band) - Big Joe Turner – Mendelssohn - Emerson, Lake & Palmer – Miles Davis – Dinah Washington – Bizet’s Carmen – Dick Dale & the Deltones – Bryan Ferry – Fats Domino – k.d. lang – Gerry Rafferty – Amy Winehouse. Particularly intriguing were tracks from a recent Bryan Ferry CD of jazz instrumental versions of some of his best known songs. The intrigue was in trying to mentally relate what we were hearing to the original song. There have been many versions of “Hallelujah” but the k.d. lang one played was possibly the best – not over dramatic. A couple of Miles Davis tracks showed an accessible side to his brand of Jazz. MARCH 2013 We had 13 people attending and providing 21 pieces of music ranging through Springsteen, Schubert, Orbison, Kursall Fliers, Previn, Seasick Steve, REM, Cash, Soirbheads, John Williams, Melly, Stones, Billie Halliday, Gary Moore, Simon & Garfunkel, R Crumb, Bryan Ferry, Lorraine Ellison, Paddy Reilly, and the inevitable anonymous Boogie Piano from Robin’s hoard. Excellent mix of styles, of well known and the obscure – something well loved, something new. APRIL 2013 We had 23 pieces and as always we didn’t know what was coming. We ranged from Liszt to Larry Williams, the Shadows to the Showmen, Freddie Mercury to Freddie Cannon, Bryn Terfel to Big Joe Turner, Dean Friedman to Diana Krall, a double Fats Waller (how big is that?) + a number of other tracks beginning with other letters. MAY 2013: GUITAR HEROES We had - amongst others - Segovia, Les Paul, Rodrigo, Leo Kottke, Link Wray, George Harrison, Lionel Hampton’s Band and a couple of tracks from Allan’s old band, Revival. Ken came up with an LP from his attic – unknown, unheard of, never to be repeated (hopefully). JULY 2013 The meeting gave us music as diverse as Louis Armstrong & Ella Fitzgerald (Jazz), Hank Marvin (RocknRoll), I Am Kloot (Electronic), Doris Troy (Soul), Frank Sinatra (Crooning), James Yancey (Boogie Piano), Mark Knopfler (Country Rock), Thin Lizzy (Rock), Nic Jones (Folk), Gordon Lightfoot (Country Folk?), The Neville Brothers (New Orleans), Kathleen Ferrier (Operatic) and others. AUGUST 2013 Another good session of pieces of music brought in by our members. Some interesting stuff there. You can’t go wrong with some Jules Holland and a slim bit of Fats Waller. Even the Jamie Cullum doing a Jimi Hendrix number was interesting. Some very contrasting pieces – Reggae from Susan Cadogan, a long modern jazz piece from George Russell, a harmonica and train combo from John Mayall, and a local band in Patti o’Doors.

Old favourites Fats Waller and some boogie-woogie still keep cropping up. As usual we didn’t know what music individuals were bringing in but we had more of a female artiste tint to the playlist with tracks featuring the voices of Joan Armatrading, Joni Mitchell, Karen Carpenter, Tina Turner, and The Ronettes. We broke new ground by having music taken from a You Tube clip – courtesy of the Nags Head WiFi channelled through my old sound system as were CDs, Vinyl and MP3s (and even cassettes are possible). The CD player was being awkward (i.e. refusing to play) and the backup antique DVD player had to be resurrected. The lack of visual display resulted in me manually counting through to the appropriate tracks to the great amusement of the group. I think some of those were deliberately chosen to be the most inaccessible tracks.

As usual, we didn’t know what people were bringing in, so the playlist ended up including Beatles classics like Hey Jude and Can’t Buy Me Love and also slightly more obscure My Guitar Gently Weeps and Devil in Her Heart. Cover versions included Richard Clayderman’s piano Yesterday, And I Love Her by the Holmes Brothers and I Wanna Hold Your Hand by a Tribute Band. Other pieces included Doris Troy Aint That Cute written / produced by George Harrison on Apple Records, Travelling Wilburys’ End Of The Line, Wings Magneto and Titanium Man and John Lennon’s last public performance (guesting with Elton John in NYC in 1974) I Saw Her Standing There. An interesting brief look at different facets of the huge body of work covering the Beatles legacy. We also found out who were huge Beatles fans from way back, from the material brought in and references to the old Fan Club floppy singles. DECEMBER 2013: XMAS RECORDS Despite the winter weather, the Music Appreciation Group had a good attendance - perhaps surprisingly as the theme was Christmas records. But still they came! We got through an amazing 24 pieces of music with a bit of banter and mince pies + sausage rolls (thanks to Jean and John Berry). The music ranged through Cajun, New Age chanting, gritty Lindisfarne Christmas concert, medieval carols, Mahalia Jackson’s fabulous voice, old smoothies Ella Fitzgerald, Bing Crosby, Sammy Davis Jnr. and Dean Martin, the National Youth Choir, Chris Rea, Jonah Lewie, the ferocious Dave Taylor Orchestra boogie piano, the lovely voice of Eva Cassiday, blues from Chuck Berry, folk maestro Bert Jansch, the whole Glen Miller Orchestra, Bryan Adams doing reggae, the Buena Vista Social Club popped in, the inevitable Elvis Christmas record, and, of course, as always, Fats Waller himself. The vast majority of them Christmas songs or tunes, and the others with some tenuous connection but it didn’t matter because we enjoyed them anyway. In case we ran out of seasonal music, I had brought along a pile of obscure Christmas singles but we hardly scratched the surface of it (not literally), as the group had responded to the theme by bringing in the above range of music on CD, LP and iPad.

  • KLOS Sept. 22Nd NO PAUL
    1 2 PLAYLIST SEPT. 22nd 2013 9AM The Beatles - Come Together - Abbey Road (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John 3 The Beatles’ twenty-first single release for EMI, and fourth on the Apple Records label. When John and Yoko were in Montreal staging their second and last Bed-In For Peace they were visited by Timothy Leary, an outspoken proponent of LSD. During their visit, Leary and his wife participated in John and Yoko’s hotel room recording of “Give Peace A Chance,” singing on the chorus. Timothy is even name-checked in the lyrics. He asked John to write a song titled “Come Together – Join The Party” for his bid to become governor of California. Lennon obliged and responded with lyrics such as: “Come together right now/Don’t come tomorrow, don’t come alone/Come together right now over me.” Lennon recorded a demo for Leary, who started using it as his campaign song. After being imprisoned for possession of marijuana in late 1969, Leary dropped out of the gubernatorial race, which was won by Ronald Reagan. Lennon reworked and expanded the song for the Beatles. The Beatles - The Ballad Of John And Yoko - Non-LP track (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John The Beatles’ twentieth single release for EMI, and third on the Apple Records label. The first Beatles single issued in stereo in the UK, it is also the very first stereo single issued by EMI. The “Get Back” single had been released in stereo in America by Capitol. Recorded on April 14, 1969, by just John and Paul, the song was completed that day.

  • LINER NOTES Recorded Anthology of American Music, Inc
    DAVID TAYLOR New World Record 80494 Bass Trombone MOONRISE WITH MEMORIES Frederic Rzewski: Moonrise With Memories was commissioned by and written for David Taylor in 1978. Taylor specifically requested a piece for bass trombone, a piece that could not be played on a tenor instrument. He also suggested an accompanying ensemble of bass (or other low-range) instruments, but I chose instead a different arrangement. The soloist is accompanied by any six instruments that can play in the soprano range (more or less that of an oboe), so that the customary relation of melody and supporting parts is turned upside down. The form is an arch, ascending and descending on either side of a central song, which is based on a short poem, "World War II," by Langston Hughes. The thinking behind this simple piece was influenced by, perhaps more than anything else, my reading of Colin Turnbull's book on Pygmy culture, The Forest People (Simon and Schuster, 1962). Without knowing a great deal about Pygmy music, I nevertheless felt strangely in tune with it, and in fact, used some heterophonic techniques, especially in the central semi-improvisatory section, that refer to the tradition. The bass trombone could be heard as the molino of Pygmy ceremony, a kind of long trumpet that is used to imitate the various voices of the forest, but above all to wake up the forest, to keep it awake, to make sure it continues its benevolent function of provider and source of life. It is usually brought out and played when something big goes wrong, or when somebody dies, and an optimistic answer to a threatening situation is needed.

  • Jools Holland & FRIENDS
    Jools Holland www.joolsholland.com & FRIENDS 5249876912 cyan/magenta/yellow/black SJL 000000000 PGS 16&1 Apropos Boogie Woogie: was reizt einen Pianisten eigentlich diese so simpel tönende Musik immer wieder zu spielen? Holland lehnt sich in seinem mit musikalischen Materialien vollgestopften Wohnzimmer zurück und schwärmt lächelnd: „Es ist da wie bei vielen anderen Dingen. Das was einfach scheint, ist in Wirklichkeit gar nicht einfach. Es ist einfach die Noten zu spielen, aber das richtige Feeling zu transportieren, ist da schon eine ganz andere Sache. Es ist verdammt kniffelig den Geist der Spontanität in einem Aufnahmestudio einzufangen.“ Der Boogie Woogie war Hollands erste Musik. Er lernte sie mit 8 Jahren kennen, als er mit dem Klavierspielen begann. Zunächst konnte sich die Familie kein Klavier leisten. Nur die Großmutter besaß eines. Auf dem spielte Hollands Onkel regelmäßig höchst aufregende Dinge. „Ja, diese Nachmittage mit Onkel und Oma waren meine Erweckungserlebnisse als Musiker. Ich hatte bis dahin noch nie so etwas Schönes gehört. Es war, als ordnete sich das Chaos des Universums in dieser Musik.“ Es war der Blues und der Boogie Woogie, die ihn da so innig Jools Holland ansprachen. Als junger Mann hörte er stets höchst gemischte Kost. Diese Haltung erhielt ihm jene Der 1958 geborene Julian „Jools“ Miles Holland, Pianist und Leader eines Rhythm & Blues Orchestra ist seit Unvereingenommenheit, die er später bei seinen vielen delikaten Kollaborationen brauchte. beinah 30 Jahren unermüdlicher Vermittler musikalischer Spitzenleistungen im britischen Fernsehen.
