  • A Band Together. but Who Knew We'd Find As Durable an Application Of
    o R M D EVERY MUSICIAN KNOWS IT’s THE RHYTHM SECTION THAT HOLDS a band together. But who knew we’d find as durable an application of that maxim as the one exemplified by the history of Fleetwood Mac? & Over the last thirty years, Fleetwood Mac has comprised fifteen musicians shuffled through six major lineups, resulting in endless tin- kerings with tone and genre. Yet the two members to survive it all rarely write tunes and never front the recordings. They’re the beat- keepers - drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John Me Vie. The fact that a rhythm section could sustain a band through thirty years seems all the more amazing considering the traumatic histories of the band’s shifting array o f stage-front stars. Together, their personal lives have given rock one of its most elaborate and juicy plotlines. (L Religious conversions, spells o f madness, “incestuous” liaisons within the band, drug freak-outs, alleged brainwashings, imperson- Mick ^ stevie ations, everything short of murder have spun Nicks, John McVie, Christine McVie, Lindsey Fleetwood Mac’s legacy into a story worthy of Buckingham (from left) Scheherazade. & Musically the band has endured just as many twists, moving from blues to rockabilly to laid-back California folk rock - finally to bloom into purveyors of some of the most popular and endur- ing music of the Seventies.

  • Walter “Wolfman”Washington Walter
    Biografia from California Walter “Wolfman” Washin- gton è stato un icona nella scena musicale di New Or- leans per decadi. La sua bruciante chitarra e, le sue vocalità soulful, hanno determinato lo stile ibrido musicale del R&B, del Funk e Blues nella crescente città da quando ha formato la sua prima band negli anni ’70. Washington inizia la sua carriera du- rante i fertili anni ’50, periodo Rhythm & Blues che depone dozzine di gran- di successi e rende New Orleans la destinazione prescelta per la regi- strazione di grandi hit come quelle di Ray Charles e Little Richard. Nato nel 1943, Walter è già in tour durante il suo tardo periodo adole- & The Roadmasters scenziale, trascorrendo più di due anni come supporto alle formidali hits della grande cantante Lee Dorsey. Prima di apparire sulle scene con la sua Solar System band, appare con l’acclamata cantante Irma Thomas così come con il leggendario Jazz- man David Lastie e la sua band. Durante gli anni ’70 inizia una collaborazione di 20 anni con uno dei più importanti ed acclamati vocalist della Louisiana, il grande Johnny Adams. Soppranominato “The Tan Canary” per il suo stile vocale ineguagliabile, Adams è la guida per Walter che sviluppa il suo stile canoro durante la collaborazione con lui ai club più rinomati, incluso una lunga apparizione al celebre Dorothy’s Medallion. Quando Washington forma la sua prima band viene spesso generalizzato nel blues, ma parlando delle sue battute iniziali con Dorsey, Thomas, Adams e Lastie, il suo sound riflette un intero genere musicale. Certamente può cantare blues, da qui il suo nickname, ma il suo talento musicale ha sempre definito un puro Soul.

  • Light Shows at the Youth Centre
    Light shows at the Youth Centre Transcription of excerpts from interviews with Stuart Davis and Richard Jones Stuart: I went to what was then Malvern School of Art, but at the time the Youth Centre, which was next door, now Malvern Cube, we used to go there in lunch times. And we got friendly with all the people that were the youth, what do they call them, the youth--, the person that was in charge of the youth centre anyway. And they started putting on bands in the evenings, and we started this light show. A light show then was what they used to call a psychedelic light show, it was projections basically. We got a load of bed sheets, which we got sewn together by someone, we used to hang that up at the back of the stage. We would set up on tables at the back of the hall, and we’d have what were called Aldis Projectors, and they were a slide projector with a bowl. And we used to muck around, we’d upgrade them and put Meccano motors on the lenses with flicker wheels. And then in between the lens and the lamp house you would have various effects you could project, whether they were liquid or oils, so you get all these moving effects on the band and on the back. And when I think back it's quite amazing 'cause you had the likes of Jethro Tull, Family, Chicken Shack, who was a very small band with a singer called Christine Perfect, who actually became Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac, you know, one of the biggest bands in the world really.
