The Roots Report: Spring Roots Are Growing The Roots Report: Spring Roots Are Growing Okee dokee folks… Officially we have about three weeks until spring. It may be hard to tell when it does arrive because of the screwy winter that we have had thus far. Flowers were blooming in the snow and bugs were buzzing. One day it was t-shirt weather and the next it was nine below. I never even got to take my snowshoes out! There really wasn’t enough snow and what we did have didn’t linger long. Now that I have written this, Mother Nature will probably take note and whack us with an April Fool’s blizzard again. There’s a lot of music coming up this spring, so I will dispense with the usual meandering rant and get right to it. Read on… We’re dabbling in something new. If you’d like to check out any of these artists on Spotify, take a gander at this playlist: I am thrilled about a show that is coming to the Greenwich Odeum this spring. Todd Rundgren!!! Other than seeing him perform as part of Ringo Starr’s All-Star Band, I have never been to a Todd show. That just whetted my appetite for more! I was so excited that I watched the FOUR-hour bio-video, “Todd,” on YouTube. If you are a Rundgren fan, then you have to watch it. Todd is known for songs such as “Can We Still Be Friends?,” “I Saw The Light,” “Bang The Drum All Day,” “We Gotta Get You A Woman,” “Real Man” and one of MY all time favorite songs, “Hello It’s Me.” You may also know him from his time in the Nazz (“Open My Eyes”), Utopia (“Love Is The Answer,” “One World”), or New Cars bands. Besides being an amazing musician and songwriter, he is a musical innovator, pioneer and genius. He produced albums such as Meatloaf’s Bat Out Of Hell, XTC’s Skylarking, Patti Smith’s Wave, The Band’s Stage Fright, Grand Funk’s We’re An American Band, and many, many others. He built a million dollar home video studio (with his Bat Out Of Hell cash) on the cusp of the video revolution. His video for the song “Time Heals” was the eighth played on MTV. This is a must-see show and it is my TOP pick for the spring season. Rundgren will be at the Odeum in East Greenwich on Friday, May 20. I would not hesitate; get your tix NOW! Big kudos to the folks at the Odeum for bringing in this show. Also coming up at the Oedum are Richard Shindell and Lucy Kaplansky on March 4, Jorma Kaukonen on March 6, Yesterday Beatles Tribute on April 1, Roger McQuinn on April 9, Playing Dead Grateful Dead Tribute on April 16 and Martin Sexton on May 7. For more, mink hollow over to theodeum.org The Providence Performing Arts Center and the Veterans Memorial Auditorium both have a slew of great shows coming up this spring. But before I even get to that you will want to mark September 14 on your calendar and get tix for the Weird Al Yankovic show NOW. Ok, you may say, “Umm, why would I want to see him?” (Actually, someone did say that to me.) Weird Al is one of the BEST shows I have EVER seen. Check out my online review (8/18) of his performance at the Zeiterion last August. It was extremely entertaining and FUN, Mandatory Fun! In the meantime, you can enjoy performances by Diana Ross, Roseanne Cash, Gordon Lightfoot, Joe Satriani and Brit Floyd. And for you guitar geeks out there, you can worship at PPAC with Generation Axe — A Night of Guitars featuring Steve Vai, Zakk Wylde, Yngwie Malmsteen, Nuno Bettencourt and Tosin Abasi on May 8, and Joe Banamassa on May 21. For a complete listing of Vets and PPAC shows, Eat It over to PPACRI.org If you are fan of Queen as I am, then you have two chances to experience One Night Of Queen. I was very fortunate to see the real thing a few times. Freddy Mercury is still unrivaled as a lead singer and showman. No matter who the remaining members try to plug into Freddie’s spot, it will never be the same. This is where tribute acts work. They try to give you a taste of the real thing instead of some other famous front man’s interpretation. This show promises “the Queen experience — the sound and the look, combined with the showmanship, pomp, style and incredible musicianship that is the hallmark of Queen.” Catch One Night Of Queen April 5 at the Zeiterion in New Bedford and April 9 at the Stadium in Woonsocket. Both are great venues to see a show. Coming up at the Z: A Saint Patrick’s Day Sojourn, The Gipsy Kings, Boston Gay Men’s Chorus, Doo Wop 12,Paul Rishell and Annie Raines, Antonio Zambujo, Bohemian Quartet. For more, Innuendo to zeiterion.org At the Stadium is Dublin City Ramblers, John Denver Experience, Charlie Daniels Band and The Summer of Love Concert, which focuses on the iconic music from between the ‘67 release of The Beatles’ Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band and Woodstock in ‘69. For more, Bicycle Race to stadiumtheatre.com The Met and Lupo’s always have a full schedule. Some of the roots related highlights at The Met are Bruce in the USA Springsteen Tribute on March 4. It may not be the real thing but the music is and you will be a lot closer and more comfortable than in a stadium! Thursday, March 24, catch The Felice Brothers. On Tuesday, April 5, witness Jonathan Richman, best known as the founder of the Modern Lovers (Roadrunner) and as the “Greek Chorus duo” in the Farrelly Brothers’ film Something About Mary. Richman will be joined by Tommy Larkins on the drums. At Lupos on April 17 is Buddy Guy with Quinn Sullivan. May 13 brings in Kevin Roosevelt Moore, better known as Keb Mo’. There’ll be some great blues playing at this one! May 18 has The Rides featuring Stephen Stills, Barry Goldberg and Kenny Wayne Shepherd. For more, meet me at TheMetRi.com or Lupos.com.

As a songwriter, video pioneer, producer, recording artist, computer software developer, conceptualist, and interactive artist (re-designated TR-i), Rundgren has made a lasting impact on both the form and content of popular music. Born and raised in Philadelphia, Rundgren began playing guitar as a teenager, founded the band The Nazz, before launching a solo career. 1972's Something/Anything? prompted the press to dub him 'Rock's New Wunderkind'. It was followed by several albums and hit singles, among them I Saw The Light, Hello It's Me, Can We Still Be Friends, and Bang The Drum. As a producer, Rundgren has worked with Patti Smith, Cheap Trick, Psychedelic Furs, Meatloaf, XTC, Grand Funk Railroad, and Hall And Oates. He composed all the music and lyrics for Joe Papp's 1989 Off-Broadway production of Joe Orton's Up Against It and composed the music for a number of television series, including Pee Wee’s Playhouse and Crime Story.

  • Hall of Fame Andy Partridge
    Hall of Fame Andy Partridge Andrew John Partridge (born 11 November 1953) is an English singer, songwriter, guitarist, and record producer from Swindon. He is best known for co-founding the rock band XTC, in which he served as the group's primary songwriter and vocalist. While the band was formed as an early punk rock group, Partridge's music drew heavily from British Invasion songwriters, and his style gradually shifted to more traditional pop, often with pastoral themes. The band's only British top 10 hit, "Senses Working Overtime" (1982), was written by Partridge. In addition to his work with XTC, Partridge has released one solo album on Virgin Records in 1980 called Take Away / The Lure of Salvage. He has also collaborated (as performer, writer or record producer) with recording artists, including Martin Newell, with whom he recorded and produced an album in 1993 entitled The Greatest Living Englishman released in Japan as a duo album. Partridge was producer for the English band Blur during the recording of Modern Life Is Rubbish (1993). He was replaced by Stephen Street at the insistence of their record label, Food. According to Partridge he was unpaid for the sessions and received his expenses only. Partridge also wrote four songs for Disney's version of James and the Giant Peach (1996) but was replaced by Randy Newman when he could not get Disney to offer him "an acceptable deal". In the 2000s, Partridge began releasing demos of his songs under his own name in The Official Fuzzy Warbles Collector's Album and the Fuzzy Warbles album series on his APE House record label.

A concerned social worker and a few school staff members have begun to question whether Drew and Cori’s needs are being met at home. Drew is resistant and at times hostile toward any suggestions that Michelle may be unable to take care of them, insisting that he and Cori have plenty of help from family and friends in their working class neighborhood of Gloucester City, New Jersey, and that their father Frank, a prison guard who lives in Trenton, New Jersey, with his new wife and toddler son, does the grocery shopping and takes care of the bills. But Drew knows that things at home are far from okay, forcing things at school to a breaking point.

  • Dave Hartl's 2017 Top Ten (Or So) Most Influential Albums
    Dave Hartl’s 2017 Top Ten (Or So) Most Influential Albums It’s time once again to look back and do that annual tradition of picking out the 10 or so most influential albums I heard in the past year. Not the most popular, or even the best, but what made me think the most as a musician. You can always go to http://www.davehartl.com/top10.html and look at other years’ postings. The links there go all the way back to 1998, when I started this with George Tucker. It’s a way of hearing about great music you might otherwise miss. If you want to contribute, please write to [email protected] with your own list and your contribution will be added to this document online for future downloads. This is why I do this! It always gives me some great recommendations for what to listen to that would be off my radar otherwise. So don’t be shy! Last year, Brian Groder, Jack Loughhead, and Kaz Yoshihara gave me some great things to listen to. 1.) John McLaughlin & the 4th Dimension: Live at Ronnie Scott’s 2017 saw the farewell American tour of the great guitarist John McLaughlin, who joined up with fellow guitarist Jimmy Herring for an unbelievable 3-set night concluding with pieces from his old Mahavishnu Orchestra days (you can see an entire concert at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPWa9F4UBQQ&t=19s, highly recommended!). This CD was recorded in London with McLaughlin’s working band of the last decade, the 4th Dimension, about 7 months ahead of the aforementioned American tour, but it shows a microcosm of that concept, opening with 1971’s Meeting of the Spirits and working through pieces showcasing the amazing drummer Ranjit Barot and his Indian classical influences, bassist Etienne M’Bappé’s multilevel constructions, and Gary Husband’s otherworldly synth textures, blowout chops, and energetic drumming.
