  • R&B Legend Natalie Cole Joins Rock Legend Gregg Allman, Merck
    NEWS RELEASE R&B Legend Natalie Cole Joins Rock Legend Gregg Allman, Merck and The American Liver Foundation to Turn Up the Volume Around Hep C 7/26/2011 Cole to Perform with The Allman Brothers Band at the Tune In to Hep C Benet Concert Tomorrow on the Eve of World Hepatitis Day Merck (NYSE: MRK) (known as MSD outside the United States and Canada) today announced that GRAMMY® winner Natalie Cole is adding her voice to the company's public health campaign, Tune In to Hep C, with the American Liver Foundation (ALF) and rock legend Gregg Allman. The goal of the campaign is to raise awareness of chronic hepatitis C virus infection. Cole will join Allman onstage at a benet concert featuring The Allman Brothers Band and other special guests in New York tomorrow, July 27, the eve of World Hepatitis Day. This cause is personal to Cole, who was diagnosed with chronic hepatitis C during a routine blood test in 2008. It was then that she realized she'd been living with the virus for more than 25 years - nearly half of her life. Cole's experience is not uncommon. In fact, chronic hepatitis C is often referred to as the silent disease because – for many people – it can be in the body for decades without any symptoms. Cole is joining the campaign to encourage others with chronic hepatitis C to put aside fear and stigma and take action. "One thing is for sure – there's a stigma surrounding hepatitis C because it's associated with IV drug use.

Amazingly, both his distinctive voice and his Hammond keyboard work have remained intact, as shown on his first solo album in 14 years, in which he's helped by an impressive backing band that includes the album's producer T-Bone Burnett on guitar, and Dr John on piano.

    Mellard: Home with the Armadillo Home with the Armadillo: Public Memory and Performance in the 1970s Austin Music Scene Jason Dean Mellard 8 Produced by The Berkeley Electronic Press, 2010 1 Greezy Wheels performing at the Armadillo World Headquarters. Photo courtesy of the South Austin Popular Culture Center. Journal of Texas Music History, Vol. 10 [2010], Iss. 1, Art. 3 “I wanna go home with the Armadillo Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene The friendliest people and the prettiest women You’ve ever seen.” These lyrics from Gary P. Nunn’s “London Homesick Blues” adorn the wall above the exit from the Austin Bergstrom International Airport baggage claim. For years, they also played as the theme to the award-winning PBS series Austin City Limits. In short, they have served in more than one instance as an advertisement for the city’s sense of self, the face that Austin, Texas, presents to visitors and national audiences. The quoted words refer, if obliquely, to a moment in 9 the 1970s when the city first began fashioning itself as a key American site of musical production, one invested with a combination of talent and tradition and tolerance that would make of it the self-proclaimed “Live Music Capital of the World.”1 In many ways, the venue of the Armadillo World Headquarters served as ground zero for these developments, and it is often remembered as a primary site for the decade’s supposed melding of Anglo-Texan traditions and countercultural lifestyles.2 This strand of public memory reveres the Armadillo as a place in which

  • La Hora Del Blues
    LA HORA DEL BLUES http://www.lahoradelblues.com/criticas.htm década. Si sois de los que considerais que a partir de aquellos años los guitarristas de blues se han ido diluyendo y pensais que ya no van a salir otros con el carisma de aquella vieja estirpe, debo deciros que estais equivocados. Oli Brown viene con nuevos proyectos y propuestas para reemplazar a aquella generación y está dispuesto a cargar con la antorcha del blues del siglo XXI y a hacerse con un lugar de privilegio entre las nuevas generaciones, tomando como inspiración a Walter Trout, Buddy Guy o Aynsley Lister. Este álbum que estamos reseñando recoge las bases y la piedra filosofal del auténtico espíritu del blues para transformarlo en la nueva savia y esencia del blues para de este modo perpetuarlo durante los próximos decenios. MUY BUENO. Among the great British rock-blues guitar players who were worshipped in the sixties by thousands of young people, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Jef Beck or Peter Green were the most outstanding ones, as they completely changed the musical patterns of that decade. If you believe since then on, blues guitar players have gradually diluted and it is impossible to find new musicians with the charismatic qualities of that old lineage, you are wrong. Oli Brown comes with new projects and ideas to replace that old generation. He is ready to carry the XXIst century blues torch and get a prominent place among the new generations, with the great inspirations of musicians like Walter Trout, Buddy Guy or Aynsley Lister. His new record collects the basis of the genuine spirit of blues to transform it into the new essence of blues to perpetuate it along the next decades.

  • GREGG ALLMAN 8.12.1947 – 27.05.2017 Żegnaj Bracie!
    GREGG ALLMAN 8.12.1947 – 27.05.2017 Żegnaj Bracie! Koncertowy album „The Fillmore Concerts” (12 i 13 marca oraz 27 czerwca 1971r.) zarejestrowany w słynnej sali Fillmore East w Nowym Jorku zarządzanej przez znanego promotora Billa Graha- ma, okazał się z czasem najlepiej sprzedającym się materiałem grupy. W 1999 r. umieszczony został w Grammy Hall Of Fame jako jeden z najbardziej znaczących albumów koncertowych w historii rocka. Legendę zespołu mocno utrwaliła kolejna, wydana rok później płyta „Eat A Peach”, także częściowo nagrana na żywo. Lata 1971-72 znaczyły się tragicznymi wydarzeniami – zmarli wówczas Duane Allman i Berry Oakley, ale na szczęście nie miało to dalekosiężnego wpływu na wypracowaną spójność stylistyczną grupy. Mimo przerwy w działalności w latach 1982-1991, oraz odejścia z ze- społu w 2000 r. Dickey’a Bettsa zespół zdołał utrzymać swoją popular- ność. Skład ABB zasilili kolejno dwaj znakomici gitarzyści – Warren Haynes, a z początkiem XXI wieku Derek Trucks. Zespół ma na swoim koncie jedenaście studyjnych albumów i aż 16 koncertowych. Ich znaczenie w olbrzymiej mierze kształtowały utwory Gregga. Wymienię tylko niektóre z nich: Hot’ Lanta, Whipping Post, Mountain Jam, Don’t Keep Me Wonder- ing, Dreams, It’s Not My Cross To Bear, Melissa, Ain’t Wastin’ Time No More, Wasted Words, Midnight Rider, One More Ride, Things You Used To Do, Just Ain’t Easy, Come And Go Blues, Mystery Woman, Desdemona, Leavin’. Gregg Allman otrzymał dziewięć nominacji do nagród Grammy (w tym siedem z zespołem) ale tylko raz został jej zdobywcą, w 1995 r. w kategorii „Best Rock Instrumental Performance” za koncertową wersję utworu Dickey’a Bettsa Jessica.

    Artist: Aynsley Lister Album: „Eyes Wide Open“ Label: Straight Talkin’ Records Katalognr.: STR2614 Vertrieb: Soulfood Release: 7.Oktober 2016 Nach sieben Studioalben, drei Live-Alben und regelmäßigen, ausverkauften Tourneen in ganz Europa muß man AYNSLEY LISTER eigentlich nicht mehr groß vorstellen. Der britische Gitarrist, Sänger und Songwriter hat sich in der Blues/Rock-Szene in den letzten 18 Jahren einen exzellenten Ruf erspielt und konnte auch für sein letztes Werk, das 2013 veröffentlichte Album „Home“, seiner mittlerweile mehr als ansehnlichen Sammlung von Auszeichnungen gleich drei neue hinzufügen: bei den British Blues Awards 2014 wurde der Titeltrack des Albums „Home“ als „Song Of The Year“ ausgezeichnet, Anysley Lister wurde „Songwriter of the Year“ und 2015 setzte sich der Musiker als „Guitarist of the Year“ gegen die Konkurrenz durch. Nun legt AYNSLEY LISTER sein neues Studioalbum „Eyes Wide Open“ vor; ein wunderbares, kühnes und eingängiges Album zeitgenössischen Blues/Rocks, mit dem der 39jährige Brite sowohl seine bisherigen Fans begeistern, als auch neues Publikum dazugewinnen wird und dessen Genre-übergreifender Sound eine konsequente Fortsetzung seiner vorangegangenen Alben darstellt, von denen der Mann aus Leicester bereits über 100.000 Stück verkauft hat. „Eyes Wide Open“ ist eine Rückkehr zu AYNSLEY LISTERs Wurzeln, ein Album, roh und voller Energie, das im Kern sämtliche Facetten des traditionellen Blues aufweist, wie der Musiker selbst sagt. „Ich wollte die Ungeschliffenheit und Energie einer Band beibehalten. Das heißt, so wenige Aufnahmen wie möglich machen und diejenigen mit dem meisten Spirit und der meisten Leidenschaft den technisch perfekten Takes vorziehen. Für mich muss Musik nicht perfekt sein. Sie soll dich packen und bewegen, sowohl emotional als auch körperlich; sie muss sich mit dir verbinden.“ Das neue Album untermauert AYNSLEY’s Reputation, Blues, Rock, Pop und sogar etwas Soul geschickt miteinander zu verbinden.
