It might apply to the weight of your take on the blues, as with Fleetwood Mac or Led Zeppelin. It might mean the originality of Jethro Tull or King Crimson. It might equally apply to an individual- to Eric Clapton, for example, The Beatles are the saints of the 1960s, and George Harrison an especially "heavy person". This year, heavy people flock together. Clapton and Steve Winwood join up in Blind Faith. Steve Marriott and Pete Frampton meet in Humble Pie. Crosby, Stills and Nash admit a new member, Neil Young. Supergroups, or more informal supersessions, serve as musical summit meetings for those who are reluctant to have theirwork tied down by the now antiquated notion of the "group". Trouble of one kind or another this year awaits the leading examples of this classic formation. Our cover stars The Rolling Stones this year part company with founder member Brian Jones. The Beatles, too, are changing - how, John Lennon wonders, can the group hope to contain three contributing writers? The Beatles diversification has become problematic.

  • Zu Ella Fitzgerald Vom 2.12.2019
    Ella Fitzgerald Story auf Radio 700 vom Montag, den 2.12.2019, 18.55 - 21.00 Uhr Autoren: Klaus Huckert/Uwe Lorenz Einleitungsmusik: A Tisket, A Tasket Anmoderation: In der heutigen Sendung des Jazz-Cocktails wollen wir uns mit dem Star des Vocal- Jazz Ella Fitzgerald beschäftigen. Im 20.Jahrhundert prägte keine andere Stimme den Jazz so sehr wie die von Ella. Ihre Beinamen waren „The Queen of Jazz“ oder „The first Lady of Jazz“ bzw. auch „The first Lady of Song“. Zur Eröffnung haben wir bereits ihren ersten Millionen-Hit „A Tisket, A Tasket“ aus dem Jahr 1938 gehört. In der fast sechzig Jahren währenden Welt-Karriere nahm die Sängerin mehrere hundert Platten auf, erhielt 14 Grammys und eine Vielzahl an Ehrungen. Schnelle Tempi im Bebop-Gesang, melancholischer Grundton bei Balladen, mitreißender Groove bei Swing-Nummern und hochinteressante Scat-Einlagen kennzeichneten ihren Stil. Basis ihres Könnens war eine Genauigkeit in der Intonation und glasklare Töne, wie man sie heute selten findet. Ihr Repertoire umfasste den Swing, Bebop, Blues, Bossa Nova und Gospel. Musik aus dem genannten Repertoire (Swing, Bebop, Blues, Bossa Nova und Gospel) z.B. „Please don’t talk about it when I am gone“ (Swing“) CD „Count Basie/Ella Fitzgerald: The perfect Match“, „One note Samba“ (CD „Ella & Pass …Again“) Track 14, „St. Louis Blues“ (CD „Ella & Basie The Perfect Match Track 10), „Mack the Knife“ (Swing) (CD Ella in Berlin, (10er Pack REEL TO REEL) …….. Die Anfangsjahre von Ella Fitzgerald (Take 1) Ella Jane Fitzgerald – geboren 1917 in Newport News/Virginia, verstorben 1996 in Beverly Hills/Kalifornien -, hatte eine relativ schwierige Kindheit.

WEA’S ROOTS DATE BACK TO THE FOUNDING OF WARNER BROS. RECORDS IN 1958 AS A DIVISION OF WARNER BROS. PICTURES. IN 1963, WARNER BROS. RECORDS PURCHASED FRANK SINATRA’S REPRISE RECORDS. AFTER WARNER BROS. WAS SOLD TO SEVEN ARTS PRODUCTIONS IN 1967 (FORMING WARNER BROS.-SEVEN ARTS), IT PURCHASED ATLANTIC RECORDS AS WELL AS ITS SUBSIDIARY ATCO RECORDS. IN 1969, THE WARNER BROS.-SEVEN ARTS COMPANY WAS SOLD TO THE KINNEY NATIONAL COMPANY. KINNEY MUSIC INTERNATIONAL (LATER CHANGING ITS NAME TO WARNER COMMUNICATIONS) COMBINED THE OPERATIONS OF ALL OF ITS RECORD LABELS, AND KINNEY CEO STEVE ROSS LED THE GROUP THROUGH ITS MOST SUCCESSFUL PERIOD, UNTIL HIS DEATH IN 1994. IN 1969, ELEKTRA RECORDS BOSS JAC HOLZMAN APPROACHED ATLANTIC'S JERRY WEXLER TO SET UP A JOINT DISTRIBUTION NETWORK FOR WARNER, ELEKTRA, AND ATLANTIC. ATLANTIC RECORDS ALSO AGREED TO ASSIST WARNER BROS. IN ESTABLISHING OVERSEAS DIVISIONS, BUT RIVALRY WAS STILL A FACTOR —WHEN WARNER EXECUTIVE PHIL ROSE ARRIVED IN AUSTRALIA TO BEGIN SETTING UP AN AUSTRALIAN SUBSIDIARY, HE DISCOVERED THAT ONLY ONE WEEK EARLIER ATLANTIC HAD SIGNED A NEW FOUR-YEAR DISTRIBUTION DEAL WITH FESTIVAL RECORDS. IN MARCH 1972, KINNEY MUSIC INTERNATIONAL WAS RENAMED WEA MUSIC INTERNATIONAL. DURING THE 1970S, THE WARNER GROUP BUILT UP A COMMANDING POSITION IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY. IN 1970, IT BOUGHT ELEKTRA (FOUNDED BY HOLZMAN IN 1950) FOR $10 MILLION, ALONG WITH THE BUDGET CLASSICAL MUSIC LABEL NONESUCH RECORDS.
