The Louisiana native got his start not in the Windy City, but in Milwaukee, where he was raised. He earned a reputation as a reliable guitarist on Chicago's West side with Joe Little & his Heart Breakers during the mid-'50s, later changing his on-stage allegiance to harpist Billy Boy Arnold. Young recorded with Arnold for Prestige and Testament during the '60s and backed Jimmy Rogers for Chess in 1958.<br />After abortive attempts to inaugurate a solo career with Jiffy Records in Louisiana in 1955 and Chicago's Atomic-H label three years later, Young hit his stride in 1961 with the sizzling "Why Baby"/"Empty Arms" for Bobby Robinson's Fire label. Young gigged as Otis Rush's rhythm guitarist from 1960 to 1963 and cut a series of excellent Chicago blues 45s for a variety of firms: "I Want a Love," "Voo Doo Dust," and "Something's Wrong" for Webcor during the mid-'60s; "Something's Wrong" for Webcor in 1966; "Sweet Kisses" and "Henpecked" on Celtex and "Hard Times (Follow Me)" for USA (all 1967), and "Guitar Star" for Jacklyn in 1969. Young even guested on Bill "Hoss" Allen's groundbreaking 1966 syndicated R&B TV program The Beat in Dallas. Late-'60s session work included dates with Tyrone Davis and Jimmy Dawkins.<br /><br /><object height="385" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/E9linCnAn7Q&hl=pt_BR&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><br /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/E9linCnAn7Q&hl=pt_BR&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object><br />Delmark issued Young's solo album debut, Blues With a Touch of Soul, in 1971, but a pair of mid-'70s LPs for Ovation (1974's Chicken Heads and an eponymous set in 1976) showcased the guitarist's blues-soul synthesis far more effectively. Young's main local haunt during the '70s and early '80s was Wise Fools Pub, where he packed 'em in nightly (with Freddy King's brother, Benny Turner, on bass).<br />In 1986 Joe began work on a self-financed recording that would finally allow him to have complete artistic control. At this time he also discovered surgery was needed on a pinched nerve in his neck. Following the operation, complications arose that affected his ability to play guitar. As part of psychical therapy he continued to work on the album sporadically until Mighty Man was finally released in 1997. Unfortunately health problems continued to plague Mighty Joe and he passed away on March 25, 1999 in Chicago. He was 71. </span></div><div><span style="color:#ffffff;"><br /></div></span><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/TCf67GrrGqI/AAAAAAAABm8/fnA95En0Nvc/s1600/d2444722d6t.jpg"><span style="color:#ffffff;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5487630564287257250" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 196px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/TCf67GrrGqI/AAAAAAAABm8/fnA95En0Nvc/s320/d2444722d6t.jpg" border="0" /></span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">Soporific album debut for the Chicago guitarist — only seven songs, many of them way too long (10:40 of "Somebody Loan Me a Dime" being the worst offender), that sport little of the excitement of Young's '60s 45s for a variety of local firms. Young doesn't sound like he was prepared for the opportunity, and the stiff two-piece horn section doesn't help either.<br /><br /></span></div><div><span style="color:#ffffff;"></span></div><div><br /><br /></div><div><span style="color:#ffffff;"></span></div><div><br /><br /></div><div><span style="color:#ffffff;"></span></div><div><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/TCf8fcFaMlI/AAAAAAAABnM/E6IiYU8Oz9c/s1600/d7193378y45.jpg"><span style="color:#ffffff;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5487632288019264082" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 195px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/TCf8fcFaMlI/AAAAAAAABnM/E6IiYU8Oz9c/s320/d7193378y45.jpg" border="0" /></span></a>Not exactly the most incendiary outing that Chicago guitarist Mighty Joe Young has ever cut. This 1976 album was cut in France for Black & Blue with a handful of Chicago stalwarts, but the excitement that Young routinely summoned up back home is in short supply as he walks through "Sweet Home Chicago" and "Five Long Years." Young's own "Takes Money" and "Need a Friend" are a definite improvement on those shopworn standards, but with only seven lengthy selections ("Teasing the Blues" runs 10:27), there isn't a lot to choose from.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/TCf9KyuV4NI/AAAAAAAABnU/lvx8EWczb6c/s1600/f35848fsif2.jpg"><span style="color:#ffffff;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5487633032830902482" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 197px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/TCf9KyuV4NI/AAAAAAAABnU/lvx8EWczb6c/s320/f35848fsif2.jpg" border="0" /></span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">For much of the 1970s and '80s, guitarist Mighty Joe Young "owned" Chicago's cozy Wise Fools Pub — at least musically speaking. He was the club's top draw, but this live disc, caught at the late and still-lamented Wise Fools, finds him sticking to the tiredest of warhorses. "Stormy Monday," "Turning Point," "That's All Right," and "I Can't Quit You Baby" may have wowed the homefolks, but they don't hold up all that well when transferred to the digital format.

Mas, a partir de 1971 ele resolveu seguir carreira solo lançando o cd “Rory Gallagher” logo depois de ter sido convidado a participar do Isle of Whight Rock Fetsival, festival que ficou famoso por receber última apresentação de Jimi Hendrix. A partir daí realmente sua carreira decolou e no mesmo ano de 1971 começou a trabalhar o 2º disco chamado “Deuce” onde o objetivo principal era gravar as músicas como um show ao vivo e o resultado foi um álbum com pouca produção e totalmente elétrico. Palavras do próprio Rory: “Eu amo tocar para o povo. O público significa muito para mim. Não é uma coisa vazia. Eu amo gravar também, mas preciso de um contato regular e frequente com o público, porque ele me dá energia!!” Daí é possível entender o por quê da gravação de “Deuce” ao vivo. Neste disco tem a música “Crest of a Wave” que possui uma melodia fantástica, um vocal poderoso, e um solo de “slide” onde Rory mostra um pouco da sua técnica com sua Fender Stratocaster, sem pedais, que o acompanhou por toda carreira desde os 15 anos de idade.<br />A trajetória de Rory Gallagher seguiu com mais 14 trabalhos, entre eles o disco “Calling Card”, de 1976, seu 8º álbum, que foi gravado em Munich, na Alemanha e produzido por Roger Glover, baixista do Deep Purple. A ba<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SuCWwrgDOiI/AAAAAAAABmM/Yzm6E69yj-g/s1600-h/2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395478116644895266" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SuCWwrgDOiI/AAAAAAAABmM/Yzm6E69yj-g/s320/2.jpg" border="0" /></a>nda era formada por : Gerry McAvoy (baixo), Lou Martin (teclados), Rod de’Ath (bateria e percussão) e Rory Gallagher (vocais, guitarras e harmônica). Este disco tem uma faixa espetacular que se chama “Jack-knife Beat”, um ritmo funk com um duelo de Rory com sua voz e guitarra, além de uma bateria bem marcada com o baixo pulsando junto.<br />Certa vez, Roger Glover lembrando as gravações com Rory disse: “…uma vez, tarde da noite, Rory estava ao microfone, no estúdio, fazendo uma espécie de sermão, como um pastor, chamando a todos para repetir suas palavras e chamando a Deus. Isto durou toda a noite sempre com muita bebida e risadas. É isto que fez dele um grande astro, um grande “performer” ou seja, a sua habilidade em divertir o público, independente da ocasião.”<br />Infelizmente, depois de 16 álbuns gravados, muitos shows e grande reconhecimento dentro da comunidade musical Rory Gallagher faleceu em 14 de junho de 1995, após uma cirurgia para transplante de fígado. Bono Vox (U2) na época falou: “Rory foi um dos grandes guitarristas de todos os tempos e um grande cavalheiro, uma pessoa muito simples.”. </div><div> </div><div>Para mais informações site oficial :<a href="http://www.rorygallagher.com/news.htm">http://www.rorygallagher.com/news.htm</a></div><div> </div><div><br /><br />VIDEOS RORY GALLAGHER</div></div></div><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Bf6RRASIU7A&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Bf6RRASIU7A&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/62E9Pe4pfDw&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/62E9Pe4pfDw&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/c-WerIIR6_I&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/c-WerIIR6_I&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5Q_JO12hby8&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5Q_JO12hby8&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>helton l. t. mourahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15764196043743163228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5878422925340486063.post-41764920367515585832009-08-01T08:22:00.000-07:002009-08-01T08:46:06.553-07:00<span style="font-size:130%;"><strong>J.B.LENOIR</strong></span><br /><br /><span style="color:#ffffff;">Newcomers to his considerable legacy could be forgiven for questioning </span><a class="artistBioLink" href="http://www.vh1.com/artists/az/lenoir_j_b_/artist.jhtml"><span style="color:#ffffff;">J.B.

Their ten-minute appearance in the film is an acknowledged highlight and established Ten Years After a place in rock history.<br />From 1968 to 1975 constant touring, playing important musical events like The Newport Jazz Festival, The Miami Pop Festival, The 1970 Isle of Wight Festival, The Toronto Peace Festival and huge venues like The Albert Hall London, Madison Square Gardens, NY and The Budokan, Tokyo, exposed the band’s music to a global audience. It is estimated that they performed to in excess of 75,000 new fans a week. Almost four million people a year, not counting those who saw the band in the Woodstock film. Between 1967 and 1974, Ten Years After recorded and released ten multi-million selling albums.<br />Sadly, Alvin Lee decided to go solo in 1975 and the group ceased touring and recording. However, there has always been a demand for Ten Years After and, over the following twenty-plus years, there were to be three short-lived attempts at reformation and one new studio record, About Time. Each time, Alvin quit to return to his solo career.<br />Starting in 2001, to take advantage in the growing interest in legendary bands like Ten Years After, EMI and<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlXUinP7D8I/AAAAAAAABg8/y7vf9AzKwTY/s1600-h/ten-years-after-texas-pop-front(4).jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356421022943481794" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 317px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlXUinP7D8I/AAAAAAAABg8/y7vf9AzKwTY/s320/ten-years-after-texas-pop-front(4).jpg" border="0" /></a> Decca Records in conjunction with Ric Lee, digitally re-mastered and re-released the whole Ten Years After back catalogue, most with bonus tracks, including a “find that had lain unnoticed – the 1970 live recording of the band at its peak at the Fillmore East in New York. Ric and Chick both approached Alvin with a view to touring to support the releases, but Alvin declined. It was a frustrating situation and once again it seemed that fans would be denied hearing the music played live.<br />A chance opportunity early in 2002 for the three founder members of Ten Years After - Leo Lyons (bass), Chick Churchill (keyboards) and Ric Lee (Drums) to work together gave them an insight into the intense, re-awakened interest in the band. By public request, the band is back together. With new member, sensational, twenty-seven year old guitarist/vocalist Joe Gooch, they are recreating the music, energy and excitement they’ve been known for over the past four decades.<br />Ten Years After plays most of their classics, but it is not an oldies band riding around on past successes. It has taken up the reins and is riding into the future. Joe Gooch is fully conversant with all of Ten Years After’s previous triumphs, but he has a distinct personality that breathes new life into the band’s performance and helps forge a new direction with this highly respected team of legendary musicians.<br />Ten Years After……Now, the band’s first studio album, was released in April 2004 in Europe and came out on July 18th 2005 i<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlXUKJQca8I/AAAAAAAABg0/BQGoF35Bauk/s1600-h/TenYears.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356420602575743938" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 314px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlXUKJQca8I/AAAAAAAABg0/BQGoF35Bauk/s320/TenYears.jpg" border="0" /></a>n the USA and Canada on the Fuel 2000 label. Throughout 2004 the band toured Germany, Belgium, Holland, Italy, Switzerland, Scandinavia, France, Czech Republic and Canada. 2005 proved to be even busier with tours completed in Europe and concerts being finalized for 2006 in USA & Canada, South America, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Dubai and many other territories.<br />August 2005 saw the release of TYA’s double live album “Roadworks” in Europe to great critical acclaim. The band toured Europe and the USA relentlessly during 05, 06, 07 and 08 but somehow managed to find time to record a bunch of new material. November 2008 will see the release of the latest studio album - “Evolution”. A long-awaited DVD is still in the pipeline and will be released in 2009.<br /><br />FONTE: <a href="http://www.tenyearsafternow.com/">http://www.tenyearsafternow.com/</a> , [ <a class="fl" href="http://translate.google.com.br/translate?hl=pt-BR&sl=en&u=http://www.tenyearsafternow.com/&ei=rdZVSpryBaCJtgf-96TgAg&sa=X&oi=translate&resnum=13&ct=result&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dten%2Byears%2Bafter%26hl%3Dpt-BR">Traduzir esta página</a> ]<br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>ALBÚNS RECOMENDADOS</strong><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlXVIcF562I/AAAAAAAABh0/non2Clt1MUE/s1600-h/e947770v7de.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356421672783702882" style="WIDTH: 200px;

The triumvirate of Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker unleashed a dazzling blend of musical styles, played with unrivalled skill, energy and panache. The very name of their band seemed bold and uncompromising. Yet it was a legitimate choice. Cream was simply the best.<br />When the band was launched with a formal announcement by their manager Robert Stigwood, it was proudly proclaimed 'The first is last and the last is first, but the first, the second and the last are Cream. They will be called Cream...' It sounded egocentric. Certainly the new group brought together some of the most gifted musicians of the day. Although the band's roots lay in the traditions of jazz, blues and rock'n'roll, their energy and vision ensured Cream's music was new, fresh and individual. It wasn't long before they took the world by storm with a succession of highly distinctive hit records and block busting concerts that set new standards of excitement.<br />In age when rock music was exploding, Cream broke down musical barriers. Among their admirers was trumpeter Miles Davis, and it has been claimed that his celebrated switch to a jazz-rock policy with such albums as the ground influenced Bitches Brew breaking work of Cream. The British group also introduced the concept of the 'power trio', which laid the foundations for the entire heavy rock genre. Cream inspired and set standards for the countless young players who followed in their wake. Between them Clapton, Baker and Bruce helped re-define the arts of playing rock guitar, bass and drums. On a broader level, Cream also proved it was possible to retain musical ideals, while achieving huge commercial success. It was a pattern repeated in the future by such trios as The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Rush and The Police.<br />Yet Cream were never just a 'heavy rock group.' Their dynamic 'live' shows emphasised improvised solos and block buster instrumentals like 'Stepping' Out', Train Time' and 'Toad', but they also played with attention to dynamics and displayed a harmonic and rhythmic sophistication far in advance of their contemporaries. Developed their song writing skills with lyricist Pete Brown, Cream devised material that often combined poetry with cinematic imagery. Surreal tone<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlEmlWVNhII/AAAAAAAABf8/hTJJC8Tz_BQ/s1600-h/ghostmojonew.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355103855011792002" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 316px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlEmlWVNhII/AAAAAAAABf8/hTJJC8Tz_BQ/s320/ghostmojonew.jpg" border="0" /></a> poems and hook laden chart hits took their place alongside ballads, music hall ditties, rock tunes and down home blues. Cream took risks and experimented. Not every idea succeeded but they were never predictable. There was no great master plan to become pioneers of 'progressive rock.' As Ginger Baker cheerfully insists 'We were a pop group!'<br />Often thought controversial or avant garde at the time, Cream songs like 'I Feel Free,' 'White Room,' 'Strange Brew,' 'Politician' and their biggest hit 'Sunshine Of Your Love' are now revived on innumerable soundtracks and in TV ads. They can be heard in movies like True Lies, Uncommon Valour and Good Fellas and are used whenever directors wish to evoke nostalgia and the free wheeling spirit of the Sixties. In the summer of the year 2000 the haunting Bruce Brown song 'White Room' was being used to advertise Applemac computers in a major TV campaign, bringing the sound of Cream into the 21st century, During their meteoric career the group made just four best selling albums including their 1966 debut Fresh Cream, followed by Disraeli Gears (1967), Wheels Of Fire (1968) and Goodbye (1969). Virtually their entire recorded output was collected on the long over due 1997 CD box set Those Were The Days (Polydor), together with demos and alternative versions. Listeners, who heard these tracks, perhaps for the first time, were struck by the richness of the material as well as the spontaneity and intensity of the performances.<br />Cream's recordings seemed amazingly diverse, compared to the work of groups who tend to compress their music into set patterns according to the dictates of producers and record companies. This may well be the right way to proceed, given the meandering excesses of the Seventies Prog Rock generation.<br />But Cream was focused in its own way. They had their own well-defined sound, and the search for new angles, away from basic blues-rock fare was hardly surprising, given their art and music school backgrounds. The need to explore, to learn and keep an open mind was an important part of their training. A sense of humour and a taste for anarchy was also considered an asset in the Sixties. All these attitudes and influences took their place in formulating the music of Cream.<br />In the midst of the acclaim for their achievements, it's easy to for<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlEnSb4rVyI/AAAAAAAABgU/eSCtXMaCckk/s1600-h/pf_02-03_cl.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355104629596837666" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 256px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlEnSb4rVyI/AAAAAAAABgU/eSCtXMaCckk/s320/pf_02-03_cl.jpg" border="0" /></a>get that the so-called 'super group' was formed in humble circumstances with a minimum of publicity, investment and equipment. The 'sensation' they caused was largely confined to the cognoscenti, a few music critics and those eager fans that queued up in the rain to pay a few shillings to see the group play their first few gigs in London pubs and clubs. Despite the esteem in which Clapton, Baker and Bruce were held, when the fledgling group had the temerity to ask a promoter for an extra five pounds for a sold out gig, it was refused! When they wanted to record songs that weren't just recycled R&B standards, they were greeted with blank incomprehension and even hostility. Sometimes demo tapes were 'lost' and sessions sobotaged. "Cream was a success, despite the industry," recalls Jack Bruce. Cream changed the lives of each of its founder members. They were all three powerful yet intensely different characters. In many ways Ginger Baker was the driving force. He came up with the idea, got it together and brought the group to the attention of their manager, the impresario Robert Stigwood. Ginger was regarded as one of the finest rock and jazz drummers in Europe. He had established his name and achieved cult status while playing alongside Jack Bruce in the Graham Bond Organisation.<br />Within a few years of Cream's success, his status was transformed, and the hard hitting extrovert had become a legend and remains the epitome of the wild eyed rock drummer.<br />Jack Bruce, the band's singer, bass player and co-composer, found his wings with Cream after many years of struggle and hard work. In the aftermath of Cream's acceptance he was able to launch a busy solo career, leading his own groups and working with a vast range of musicians from Tony Williams to Frank Zappa. Eric Clapton devised the name Cream and was also a prime motivator in forming the group. After his previous experience with The Yardbirds and John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Eric found that Cream gave him the chance to play with complete freedom and to experiment and develop a more mature guitar style. The tempestuous trio was something of a hot house and a highly competitive musical environment. The Cream experience wasn't always a happy one for Eric, but it was like a finishing school that honed his talents and paved the way for a tremendously successful solo career. He was and remains the finest blues guitarist of his generation, a warm and sensitive singer/songwriter and the creator of many of popular music's most moving and memorable themes from 'Layla' to 'Wonderful Tonight' and 'Tears In Heaven.' He has never forgotten his Cream years and songs like 'Badge,' 'Sunshine Of Your Love' and 'White Room' remain staples of his 'live' performances. In their heyday Cream were at the forefront of a huge music explosion that overlapped and followed on from The Beatles era. Together with The Who, the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Pink Floyd, Cream raised expectations to f<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlEnAJTJ2TI/AAAAAAAABgM/t2Jtphaf-wo/s1600-h/Front-6.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355104315369969970" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 318px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlEnAJTJ2TI/AAAAAAAABgM/t2Jtphaf-wo/s320/Front-6.jpg" border="0" /></a>ever pitch and for many of its adherents, delivered the musical equivalent of an acid trip. The sheer intensity of Cream shows remained locked in the memories of eager audiences for years afterwards. Whether wowing hippies at the Fillmore, San Francisco or delighting fans at the Saville Theatre, London, Cream became Flower Power icons and an integral part of the whole Sixties' psychedelic experience.<br />With fame, money and success came problems. It was a heavy burden of responsibility for any band, to be expected to turn on their fans night after night on endless tours. Each member of Cream had his own ego and temperament. Eventually the strain took its toll and the band, which began as brothers, came to an end with abrupt finality after only three years at the top. There was a huge sense of disappointment and loss among fans when Cream broke up in December, 1968. When they completed their final recordings for their Goodbye album, played their farewell concerts in the States and at the Royal Albert Hall, London in November they left their fans in limbo. Yet this was probably their wisest move. The complete break ensured that Cream split at the top of their game. They are remembered today only for great shows, hit singles and ground breaking albums that left their public desperate for more. There was no attempt to drag out their career together, no legacy of failed albums or less than successful 'come back' tours, often the fate of bands who never gave up trying. In the light of subsequent developments, during which pop and rock has undergone huge, fundamental changes, it is unlik<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlEmlhCMSaI/AAAAAAAABgE/ED1lrKlXzqA/s1600-h/222.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355103857884809634" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 298px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlEmlhCMSaI/AAAAAAAABgE/ED1lrKlXzqA/s320/222.jpg" border="0" /></a>ely that Cream could have survived and prospered into the 21st Century in its original form.<br />Pete Brown, the poet and singer who co-wrote many of Cream hit songs with Jack Bruce is frankly amazed that such a musicianly band was so acceptable. "Looking back now, it seems extraordinary it should have been such a success world wide. It was a case of being in the right place at the right time. Luckily they were all strong people and managed to motivate themselves. At first people thought they were going to be just a Chicago style blues band playing a few clubs. Indeed the whole operation was club orientated and based on percentages. The British music business has always been terribly blinkered. Very few people could see that Cream was going to make it in America and around the world."<br />Says Jack Bruce: "Cream showed that rock musicians could play. But that was a double-edged sword, because it became very unfashionable to be able to play didn't it? But Cream was a nice little trio. It certainly was an influence—on the whole future of rock music." </div><div></div><div><br />FONTE : <a href="http://www.cream2005.com/">http://www.cream2005.com/</a> , [ <a class="fl" href="http://translate.google.com.br/translate?hl=pt-BR&sl=en&u=http://www.cream2005.com/&ei=CShRSsubBp6ltgewh_2kBA&sa=X&oi=translate&resnum=1&ct=result&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dcream%2B2005%26hl%3Dpt-BR">Traduzir esta página</a> ]</div><div></div><div></div><div><br /><strong>ALBÚNS RECOMENDADOS</strong><br /><br /></div><div></div><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SlElz7l4nzI/AAAAAAAABfU/ySyGyCgkJu8/s1600-h/d56235wue1p.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355103006020378418" style="WIDTH: 200px;

KING</strong><br /></span><br /><div><div><div>Riley Ben King, mais conhecido como B. B. King, nasceu em uma plantação de algodão em 16 de setembro de 1925 em Itta Bena, perto de Indianola no Mississippi, Estados Unidos da América.Teve uma infância difícil – aos 9 anos, o bluesman vivia sozinho e colhia algodão, trabalho que lhe rendia 3<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SkaGtoJ9ZkI/AAAAAAAABdM/l-6WbwHqyFQ/s1600-h/BB%2BKing.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352113325607839298" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 268px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SkaGtoJ9ZkI/AAAAAAAABdM/l-6WbwHqyFQ/s320/BB%2BKing.jpg" border="0" /></a>5 centavos de dólar por dia. Começou por tocar, a troco de algumas moedas, na esquina da Igreja com a Second Street.No ano de 1947, partia para Memphis, no Tennessee, apenas com sua guitarra e $2,50 dólares. Como pretendia seguir a carreira musical, a cidade de Memphis, cidade onde se cruzavam todos os músicos importantes do Sul, sustentava uma vasta competitiva comunidade musical em que todos os estilos musicais negros eram ouvidos.Nomes como Django Reinhardt, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Lonnie Johnson, Charlie Christian e T-Bone Walker tornaram-se ídolos de B. B. King.“Num sábado à noite ouvi uma guitarra elétrica que não estava a tocar espirituais negros. Era T-Bone interpretando “Stormy Monday” e foi o som mais belo que alguma vez ouvi na minha vida.” recorda B. B. King, “Foi o que realmente me levou a querer tocar Blues”.A primeira grande oportunidade da sua carreira surgiu em 1948, quando actuou no programa de rádio de Sonny Boy Wiliamson, na estação KWEM, de Memphis. Sucederam-se atuações fixas no “Grill” da Sixteenth Avenue e mais tarde um spot publicitário de 10 minutos na estação radiofónica WDIA, com uma equipe e direcção exclusivamente negra. “King’s Sport”, patrocinado por um tónico, tornou-se então tão popular que aumentou o tempo do transmissão e se transformou no “Sepia Swing Club”.King precisou de um nome artístico para a rádio. Aquilo que começou por ser “Beale Street Blues” foi abreviado para “<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SkaG7ngZcwI/AAAAAAAABdc/8JRFExc8x08/s1600-h/BB%2BKing+1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352113565951685378" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 209px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SkaG7ngZcwI/AAAAAAAABdc/8JRFExc8x08/s320/BB%2BKing+1.jpg" border="0" /></a>Blues Boy King” e eventualmente para B. B. King. Por mera coincidência, o nome de KING já incluia a simples inicial “B”, que não correspondia a qualquer abreviatura.Pouco depois do seu êxito “Three O’ Clock Blues”, em 1951, B. B. King começou a fazer turnês nacionais sem parar, atingindo uma média de 275 concertos/ano. Só em 1956 B. B. King e a sua banda fizeram 342 concertos! Dos pequenos cafés, teatros de “gueto”, salões de dança, clubes de jazz e de rock, grandes hotéis e recintos para concertos sinfónicos aos mais prestigiados recintos nacionais e internacionais, B. B. King depressa se tornou o mais conceituado músico de Blues dos últimos 40 anos, desenvolvendo um dos mais prontamente identificáveis estilos musicais de guitarra, em nível mundial. O seu estilo foi inspirador para muitos guitarristas de rock. Mike Bloomfield, Albert Collins, Buddy Guy, Freddie King, Jimi Hendrix, Otis Rush, Johnny Winter, Albert King, Eric Clapton, George Harrison e Jeff Beck foram apenas alguns dos que seguiram a sua técnica como modelo.Em 1969, B. B. King foi escolhido para a abertura de 18 concertos dos Rolling Stones. Em 1970 fez uma turnê por Uganda, Lagos e Libéria, com o patrocínio governamental dos E.U.A.B. B. King (1989).B. B. King (1989).Começou a participar da maioria dos festivais de Jazz por todo o mundo, incluindo o Newport Jazz Festival e o Kool Jazz Festival New York, e sua presença tornou-se regular no circuito por universidades e colégios.Em 1989 fez uma tournê de três meses pela Austrália, Nova Zelândia, Japão, França, Alemanha Ocidental, Países Baixos e Irlanda, como convidado especial dos U2, participando igualmente no álbum “Rattle and Hum”, deste grupo, com o tema “When Love Comes to Town”.Em 26 de Julho de 1996, B. B. King, aproveitando o fato de ter um concerto agendado para Stuttgart, deslocou-se propositalmente de avião até à base aérea de Tuzla, para atuar perante tropas da Suécia, Rússia, Bélgica e E.U.A., estacionadas na Bósnia num esforço conjunto de manutenção da paz. No dia seguinte, voou para a base aérea de Kaps<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SkaGt2vu9JI/AAAAAAAABdU/gyh07jcIq4k/s1600-h/BB%2BKing%2Bbbking3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352113329524372626" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 307px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SkaGt2vu9JI/AAAAAAAABdU/gyh07jcIq4k/s320/BB%2BKing%2Bbbking3.jpg" border="0" /></a>jak, para nova atuação junto de tropas norte-americanas. B. B. King confessa: “Foi emocionante atuar para estes homens e mulheres. Apreciamo-los e queremos que eles saibam que têm o nosso total apoio na sua árdua tarefa de manutenção da paz.”B. B. King terminou 1996 com uma turne pela América Latina, com concertos no México, Brasil, Chile, Argentina, Uruguai e, pela primeira vez, no Peru e Paraguai. O “Rei dos Blues” totaliza mais de 77 países onde atuou até hoje.Ao longo dos anos tem sido agraciado com diversos Grammy Awards: melhor desempenho vocal masculino de Rhythm & Blues, em 1970, com “The Thrill is Gone”, melhor gravação étnica ou tradicional, em 1981, com “There Must Be a Better World Somewhere”, melhor gravação de Blues tradicionais, em 1983, com “Blues’N Jazz” e em 1985 com “My Guitar Sings the Blues”.

By the early 1940's Hooker had moved north to Detroit by way of Memphis and Cincinnati. Hooker found work as a janitor in the auto factories, and at night, like many other transplants from the rural Delta, he entertained friends and neighbors by playing at "house parties". He was "discovered" by record storeowner Elmer Barbee who took him to Bernard Besman, who was a producer, record distributor and owner of Sensation Records, Besman leased some of his early Hooker recordings to Modern Records. Among Hooker's first recordings in 1948, "Boogie Chillen" became a number one jukebox hit for Modern and his first million seller. This was soon followed by an even bigger hit with "I'm In The Mood" and other classic recordings including "Crawling Kingsnake" and "Hobo Blues." Another surge in his career took place with the release of more than 100 songs on Vee Jay Records during the 1950's and 1960's. When th<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SiChJBBYC1I/AAAAAAAABZc/A_S6SpP7m2I/s1600-h/o.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5341446334326508370" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 256px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SiChJBBYC1I/AAAAAAAABZc/A_S6SpP7m2I/s320/o.jpg" border="0" /></a>e young bohemian audiences of the 1960's "discovered" Hooker along with other blues originators, he and various he and others made a brief return to folk blues. Young British artist such as the Animals, John Mayall, and the Yardbirds introduced Hooker's sound to the new and eager audiences whose admiration and influence helped build Hooker to superstar status in the mid - 60's England. By 1970 he had moved to California and worked on several projects with rock musicians, notably Van Morrison and Canned Heat. Canned Heat modeled their sound after Hooker's boggie and collaborated with him on several albums and tours. During the late 1970's and much of the 1980's, Hooker toured the U.S. and Europe steadily but grew disenchanted with recording, through his appearance in the Blues Brothers movie resulted in a heightened profile. Then, in 1989, The Healer was released to critical acclaim and sales in excess of a million copies. Today the "The King Of The Boggie" is enjoying the most successful period of his extensive career. In the past ten years Hooker's influence has contributed to a booming interest in the blues and, notably, its acceptance by the music industry as a commercially viable entity. Hooker's career has been a series a highlights and special events since the release of The Healer. In addition to recording hi<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SiChI6wsbhI/AAAAAAAABZU/B0G-94ukVZc/s1600-h/JohnLeeHooker.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5341446332645928466" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 210px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SiChI6wsbhI/AAAAAAAABZU/B0G-94ukVZc/s320/JohnLeeHooker.jpg" border="0" /></a>s on albums Mr. Lucky, Boom Boom, Chill Out, and Don't Look Back for Pointblank / Virgin, he contributed to recordings by B.B. King, Branford Marsalis, Van Morrison, and Big Head Todd and the Monsters and portrayed the title role in Pete Townshend's 1989 epic, The Iron Man. His influence on younger generations has been documented on television with features on Showtime and a special edition of the BBC's 'Late Show' as well as appearances on "The Tonight Show" and "Late Night With David Letterman" among many others. John Lee was invited to perform The Rolling Stones and guest Eric Clapton for their national television broadcast during The Stones' 1989 Steel Wheels tour. In 1990, many musical greats paid tribute to John Lee Hooker with a performance at Madison Square Garden. Joining him on some or all of these special occasions were artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Ry Cooder, Joe Cocker, Huey Newton, Carlos Santana, Robert Clay, Mick Fleetwood, Al Cooper, Johnny Winter, John Hammond, and the late Albert Collins and Willie Dixon.

Honors continue, with recent inductions into Los Angeles' Rock Walk, The Bammies Walk Of Fame in San Francisco, and, in 1997, a star in the Hollywood Walk Of Fame. John Lee's style has always been unique, even among other performers of the real deep blues, few of whom remain with us today. While retaining that foundation he has simultaneously broken new ground musically and commercially. At the age of 80, John Lee Hooker received his third and fourth Grammy Awards, for Best Traditional Blues Recording (Don't Look Back) and for Best Pop Collaboration for the song "Don't Look Back" which Hooker recorded with his long time friend Van Morrison. This Friendship and others are celebrated on Hooker's newest Pointblank / Virgin album, The Best Of Friends. The album also celebrates a return, exactly 50 years later, to Hooker's first hit, Boogie Chillen and serves as a perfect bookend for Hooker's first fifty years in the business.<br /><br />Fonte:<a href="http://www.johnleehooker.com/">ht</a><a href="http://www.johnleehooker.com/">tp://www.johnleehooker.com/</a> [ <a class="fl" href="http://translate.google.com.br/translate?hl=pt-BR&sl=en&u=http://www.johnleehooker.com/&ei=3JwgSuQvhILJBZHe4bkG&sa=X&oi=translate&resnum=1&ct=result&prev=/search%3Fq%3Djohn%2Blee%2Bhooker%26hl%3Dpt-BR%26sa%3DN">Traduzir esta página</a>]<br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>ALBÚNS RECOMENDADOS<br /><br /></strong><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SiChfS2K0fI/AAAAAAAABZk/6H4PSBqUZac/s1600-h/c50450sc489.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5341446717068464626" style="WIDTH: 200px;

While performing in Dallas, he met a woman named </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,710353,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Angeline</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> and the two married in 1927. </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,710353,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Angeline</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> added 19th century hymns to </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,449693,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Johnson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">'s repertoire, and the two performed around the Dallas and Waco areas. On December 3, 1927, Columbia Records brought </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,449693,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Blind Willie Johnson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> into the studio where he recorded six songs that became some of his most enduring recordings: a song about Samson and Delilah called "If I Had My Way," "Mother's Children Have a Hard Time" (often understood as "motherless children"), "It's Nobody's Fault but Mine," "Jesus Make up My Dying Bed," " I Know His Blood Can Make Me Whole," and </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,449693,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Johnson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">'s single most-acclaimed song, "Dark Was the Night -- Cold Was the Ground," which is about the crucifixion of Christ. But after this session, </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,449693,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Johnson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> didn't return to the studio for an entire year. The second visit (which took place on December 5, 1928) found him accompanied by his wife, </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,710353,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Angeline</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, who provided backing vocals. The two recorded four songs, including "I'm Gonna Run to the City of Refuge" and "Lord, I Just Can't Keep From Cryin'." Songs from these first two sessions were also issued on the Vocalion label. Several months later, </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,449693,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Willie</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> and </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,710353,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Angeline Johnson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> met </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,541195,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Elder Dave Ross</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> and went with him to New Orleans where </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,449693,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Blind Willie Johnson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> recorded ten songs for Columbia. From this December 1929 session came a few more of his best-known songs, including "God Don't Never Change," "Let Your Light Shine on Me," and "You'll Need Somebody on Your Bond." Although </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,449693,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Blind Willie Johnson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> was one of Columbia's best-selling race recording artists, he only recorded for them one more time -- in April 19</span><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SgGFZbIsR0I/AAAAAAAABYU/7peHZ1lRB0U/s1600-h/202478.jpg"><span style="color:#ffffff;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5332690105610815298" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 252px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 285px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SgGFZbIsR0I/AAAAAAAABYU/7peHZ1lRB0U/s320/202478.jpg" border="0" /></span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">30 -- after which he never heard from them again. This final session took place in Atlanta, GA (again, </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,449693,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Johnson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> was accompanied by </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,710353,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Angeline</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> who actually sang lead on a few numbers this time), and consisted of ten songs, including "Can't Nobody Hide From God," "John the Revelator," and the slightly altered "You're Gonna Need Somebody on Your Bond." These last two songs were issued on one record that was withdrawn shortly after its release. Despite the fact that </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,449693,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Johnson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> did not record after 1930, he continued to perform on the Texas streets during the '30s and '40s. Unfortunately, in 1947, the </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,449693,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Johnsons</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">' home burned to the ground. He caught pneumonia shortly thereafter and died in the ashes of his former home approximately one week after it was destroyed. Purportedly, </span><a class="dlink" href="http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/music/artist/card/0,,710353,00.html"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Angeline Johnson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> went on to work as a nurse during the 1950s.

James nasceu perto de </span><a title="Bentonia" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bentonia"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Bentonia</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, no </span><a title="Mississippi" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Mississippi</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">. O seu pai era um ex-contrabandista de álcool convertido em pregador. Enquanto novo, James escutou músicos locais como Henry Stuckey e os irmãos Charlie e Jesse Sims, tendo começado a tocar órgão no início da sua adolescência. Trabalhou na construção de estradas na sua terra natal, o </span><a title="Mississippi" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Mississippi</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, no início da década de </span><a title="1920" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/1920"><span style="color:#ffffff;">1920</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> e escreveu aquela que é provavelmente a sua canção mais antiga, "Illinois Blues", acerca das suas experiências como trabalhador. No fim da década, foi agricultor em várias quintas e produzia </span><a class="mw-redirect" title="Whiskey" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whiskey"><span style="color:#ffffff;">whiskey</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> contra-feito na área de </span><a title="Bentonia" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bentonia"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Bentonia</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">. Começou a tocar guitarra afinada em Ré Menor e desenvolveu um técnica de dedilhar com três dedos que viria a proporcionar grandes resultados nas suas gravações. Além disso, começou a praticar piano, indo buscar inspiração ao pianista blues do Mississippi </span><a class="new" title="Little Brother Montgomery (página não existe)" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Little_Brother_Montgomery&action=edit&redlink=1"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Little Brother Montgomery</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">. No início de 1931, James fez uma audição para o dono de uma loja de discos em </span><a title="Jackson" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackson"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Jackson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, no </span><a title="Mississippi" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Mississippi</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> e para um caçador de talentos </span><a class="new" title="H.

Speir</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, que colocara artistas de blues a gravar para uma série de etiquetas incluindo a </span><a class="new" title="Paramount Records (página não existe)" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Paramount_Records&action=edit&redlink=1"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Paramount Records</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">. Como resultado da sua audição, Skip James viajou para </span><a title="Grafton" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grafton"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Grafton</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> no estado de </span><a title="Wisconsin" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisconsin"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Wisconsin</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> para gravar para a Paramount. O trabalho de James em 1931 é considerado único e idiossincrático entre as outras gravações de blues antes da 2ª Guerra Mundial, e constitui a base da su</span><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sf2rN2vBtRI/AAAAAAAABW8/WR8qePrKkgs/s1600-h/sj.jpg"><span style="color:#ffffff;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331605788395943186" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 229px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sf2rN2vBtRI/AAAAAAAABW8/WR8qePrKkgs/s320/sj.jpg" border="0" /></span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">a reputação enquanto músico.<br />Como era típico no seu tempo, James gravou uma variedade de material - </span><a title="Blues" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blues"><span style="color:#ffffff;">blues</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> e </span><a title="Espiritual negro" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Espiritual_negro"><span style="color:#ffffff;">espirituais</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, </span><a class="new" title="Versões (página não existe)" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Vers%C3%B5es&action=edit&redlink=1"><span style="color:#ffffff;">versões</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> e composições originais - transpondo frequentemente as barreiras entre os géneros e fontes a que recorria. Por exemplo, "I'm So Glad" derivou de uma canção de 1927 escrita por Art Sizemore e George A. Little chamada "So Tired", que fora gravada em 1928 por </span><a class="new" title="Gene Austin (página não existe)" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gene_Austin&action=edit&redlink=1"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Gene Austin</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> e </span><a class="new" title="Lonnie Johnson (página não existe)" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lonnie_Johnson&action=edit&redlink=1"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Lonnie Johnson</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> (o último sob o título "I'm So Tired of Livin' All Alone"). James alterou a letra da canção, transformando-a através da sua técnica virtuosa, entrega, intensidade e senso de melodia. O biógrafo Stephen Calt, dando eco à opinião de diversos críticos, considerou que o produto final era completamente novo e original e "um dos mais extraordinários exemplos de dedilhar que é possível encontrar na música para guitarra". Em diversas gravações para a Grafton, como "Hard Time Killing Floor Blues", "Devil Got My Woman", "Jesus Is A Mighty Good Leader" e "22-20 Blues" (que serviria de base para a canção de Robert Johnson, mais conhecida, "32-20 Blues"), provaram-se igualmente influentes. Muito poucas cópias originais em 78 rotações das gravações de James para a Paramount chegaram até aos dias de hoje.<br />Os efeitos da </span><a title="Grande Depressão" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grande_Depress%C3%A3o"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Grande Depressão</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> chegaram justamente quando os discos de Skip James chegaram ao mercado. Como resultado, as vendas foram muito fracas e James desistiu de tocar blues e tornou-se</span><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sf2q_1cVSxI/AAAAAAAABWk/gCWhiVCL8MM/s1600-h/sj2.jpg"><span style="color:#ffffff;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331605547530930962" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 313px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sf2q_1cVSxI/AAAAAAAABWk/gCWhiVCL8MM/s320/sj2.jpg" border="0" /></span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> director do coro na igreja do seu pai. O próprio Skip James vira a ser mais tarde ordenado ministro tanto na igreja </span><a title="Baptista" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baptista"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Baptista</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> quer na </span><a class="mw-redirect" title="Metodista" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metodista"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Metodista</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, mas o seu envolvimento nas actividades religiosas era extemporâneo. No trinta anos que se seguiram, James não gravou nada e regressou e abandonou de novo a música várias vezes. Era virtualmente desconhecido dos amantes da música sensivelmente até </span><a title="1960" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/1960"><span style="color:#ffffff;">1960</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">. Em </span><a title="1964" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/1964"><span style="color:#ffffff;">1964</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> os entusiastas do blues </span><a title="John Fahey" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Fahey"><span style="color:#ffffff;">John Fahey</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, </span><a class="new" title="Bill Barth (página não existe)" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bill_Barth&action=edit&redlink=1"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Bill Barth</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> e </span><a title="Henry Vestine" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Vestine"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Henry Vestine</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> encontraram-no no hospital de Tunica, no </span><a title="Mississippi" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Mississippi</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">. Segundo Calt, a "redescoberta" de Skip James e de </span><a title="Son House" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Son_House"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Son House</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> praticamente ao mesmo tempo foi o início do "revivalismo do blues" na América do Norte. Em Julho de </span><a title="1964" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/1964"><span style="color:#ffffff;">1964</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, Skip James lado a lado com outros artistas redescobertos, apresentou-se no </span><a class="new" title="Newport Folk Festival (página não existe)" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Newport_Folk_Festival&action=edit&redlink=1"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Newport Folk Festival</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">.

Skip James era conhecido por ser um artista idiossincrático. Eram raras as ocasiões em que socializava com outros músicos blues ou com os fãs. Tal como </span><a title="John Fahey" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Fahey"><span style="color:#ffffff;">John Fahey</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, James bocejava quando ouvia falar na assim chamada cena "folkie" da década de 1960. Tinha em grande estima o seu próprio trabalho e era relutante em partilhar idéias musicais com outros artistas. James é o </span><a title="Arquétipo" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arqu%C3%A9tipo"><span style="color:#ffffff;">arquétipo</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> da típica personalidade complexa atribuída a muitos artistas do blues, que viveram uma vida difícil e por vezes miserável enquanto mantinham crenças austeras e por vezes religiosas. Apesar do conteúdo lírico da algumas das suas canções nos poder induzir a caracterizar James como </span><a title="Misógino" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mis%C3%B3gino"><span style="color:#ffffff;">misógino</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, este permaneceu com a sua mulher Lorenzo até ao momento da sua morte. O som de Skip James era único dentro do blues.

O seu cantar muito agudo e frágil, mesmo nas suas primeiras gravações, parece ter vindo de outro mundo. O seu estilo vocal é apontado como sendo "de pregação", sendo que é sabido que Skip James também cantou espirituais. James é olhado como um talentoso e distinto guitarrista. Tocava muitas vezes com afinação em Ré Menor (DADFAD) o que conferia ao seu instrumento um timbre sombrio e desolador. A sua técnica de dedilhar de origem clássica era limpa e rápida, dando uso a todo o registo da guitarra com linhas de baixo pesadas e hipnóticas. Ironicamente, o estilo de tocar de James tinha mais em comum com o estilo de blues de </span><a title="Piedmont" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piedmont"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Piedmont</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> (</span><a class="new" title="Piedmont blues (página não existe)" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Piedmont_blues&action=edit&redlink=1"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Piedmont blues</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">), da Costa Este dos Estados Unidos, do que com o dos blues do Delta </span><a title="Delta blues" href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_blues"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Delta blues</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> o seu Mississippi natal.

O fato é que havia já algum tempo que ambos estavam pensando em retomar o som dos "power-trios" tão em voga durante as décadas de 60 e 70 e eis que durante uma conversa surgiu a idéia de se criar um projeto paralelo ao ABB, Após este contato inicial ,começam a ensaiar, e eis que um dia Jaimoe (baterista do Allman Brothers), após assistir a um desses ensaios, sugere adotarem o nome "Gov’t Mule", ao que a banda prontamente aceita. Nas palavras de Haynes "este nome pode significar coisas diferentes para pessoas diferentes; por outro lado serve perfeitamente para nos descrever - somos como um indolente, trabalhador e não-glorioso animal!". (Embora não haja uma tradução apropriada para a língua portuguesa, Gov’t Mule significa algo próximo a "mula de carga").<br />Fizeram sua primeira apresentação em 12/05/94 no The Palamino, Hollywood CA, mesclando composições próprias com alguns covers (Mr. Big, Little Red Rooster, Killing Floor), porém com uma roupagem totalmente diferente (podemos até dizer, "com uma roupagem à la Gov’t Mule"), característica que se manteve até hoje, haja visto a quantidade de versões que costumam tocar ao vivo (War Pigs do Black Sabbath, Thick As A Brick do Jethro Tull, My Generation do The Who etc). Com isto surgiu uma outra peculiaridade da banda, o fato de praticamente não repetirem nenhum set, tornando cada show uma experiência única para os pres<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3GYkBvhI/AAAAAAAABUs/I5ZBE2ufNos/s1600-h/fmule.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331337379200482834" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3GYkBvhI/AAAAAAAABUs/I5ZBE2ufNos/s320/fmule.jpg" border="0" /></a>entes. Evidentemente os fãs mais "hardcores" e principalmente aqueles completistas teriam motivos de sobra para arrancar os cabelos, afinal é virtualmente impossível acompanhar todas as apresentações da banda! Porém outra característica peculiar do pessoal é permitir que todos os shows sejam gravados pelos fãs! Embora não se trate de uma prática nova, afinal o pessoal do Grateful Dead já fazia isto desde a década de 60, o Gov’t Mule é a primeira banda que além de fazer isto, ainda cede espaço no seu site oficial na Internet para os fãs trocarem gravações!<br />No ano seguinte lançam seu primeiro auto-intitulado cd pela Relativity Records, contando com três releituras - dentre elas uma canção ,"a capella", do bluesman Son House - gravado praticamente ao vivo (com exceção de alguns poucos overdubs - descritos no encarte do cd!). Um dos pontos altos é "Trane" - inspiradíssimo instrumental baseado e em homenagem a John Coltrane - um dos ídolos de Haynes.<br />Prosseguem fazendo shows que vão se tornando cada vez mais concorridos, até que no início de 1996 lançam seu primeiro registro ao vivo, o "Live at Roseland Ballroom", gravado na noite de Ano Novo de 95/96 (totalmente sem overdubs), numa turnê conjunta com o pessoal do Blues Traveler. Abrem com uma versão ampliadíssima (16:34min) e cheia de improvisos de "Trane", passando por uma releitura de "Don’t Step On The Grass, Sam" (do Steppenwolf), culminando com outra versão inspiradíssima de "Mule".<br />"Táis pronto prô coice da mula?" (frase ouvida na fila da bilheteria)<br />Em 1996 vêm ao Br<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy21aLGvmI/AAAAAAAABUk/9aO00FJ6Z9s/s1600-h/8062_g.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331337087575047778" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy21aLGvmI/AAAAAAAABUk/9aO00FJ6Z9s/s320/8062_g.jpg" border="0" /></a>asil para se apresentar no Nescafé & Blues Festival, fazendo três apresentações , uma no Palace em São Paulo dia 30/05, e além de canções próprias coverizam "Mr.Big" do Free, "Don’t step on the grass, Sam" do Steppenwolf, "Presence of the Lord" do Blind Faith e "Just Got Paid" do ZZTop. Dia 31 é a vez do Canecão ,no Rio em 31/05, onde vamos ouvir dentre outras Mr.Big/Presence of the Lord e "End of the line" dos Eagles. Por fim, em Salo de Atos ,em Porto Alegre dia 01/06, onde, além de tocarem os covers já citados ,ainda incluem Born under a bad sign (versão à la Cream) e Never in my life (Mountain).<br />Ainda em 1996 Haynes é eleito pela segunda vez consecutiva "best slide guitarrist" ,pela conceituada Guitar Player americana, pelo seu trabalho no Gov’t Mule. Isto aliado à crescente fama angariada pelo trio culmina numa inversão de valores, pois inicialmente tanto Haynes quanto Woody viam a banda como um projeto paralelo ao Allman Brothers Band, e no final estavam dedicando menos tempo a esta última. Com isto resolvem deixar os Allman definitivamente em Abril de 1997.<br /><br /><br /><strong>ALBÚNS RECOMENDADOS</strong><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3kTOxxkI/AAAAAAAABU8/MBNoHpepchg/s1600-h/c76200k999q.jpg"></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3kTOxxkI/AAAAAAAABU8/MBNoHpepchg/s1600-h/c76200k999q.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331337893165254210" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3kTOxxkI/AAAAAAAABU8/MBNoHpepchg/s320/c76200k999q.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />LIVE AT ROSELAND BALLROOM<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3kqZvp8I/AAAAAAAABVc/Lzt6nz6sVrk/s1600-h/h44376r9k0d.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331337899385268162" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 197px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3kqZvp8I/AAAAAAAABVc/Lzt6nz6sVrk/s320/h44376r9k0d.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />HIGH & MIGHTY<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3knWgrWI/AAAAAAAABVU/eli0f20IwQ8/s1600-h/g46921xinzr.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331337898566397282" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3knWgrWI/AAAAAAAABVU/eli0f20IwQ8/s320/g46921xinzr.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />DÉJÀ VOODOO<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3kqvXpGI/AAAAAAAABVM/BcozqyboCc8/s1600-h/g07605xo5ff.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331337899475969122" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 171px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3kqvXpGI/AAAAAAAABVM/BcozqyboCc8/s320/g07605xo5ff.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />DEEPEST END live in concert<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3kcXT9kI/AAAAAAAABVE/Ron9Rk1wTrg/s1600-h/f04591fpzf2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331337895616968258" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 199px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfy3kcXT9kI/AAAAAAAABVE/Ron9Rk1wTrg/s320/f04591fpzf2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />LIVE..WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM OUR FRIENDS vol.1<br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>VIDEOS GOV'T MULE</strong><br /><br /><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/KOz3Th3ugLQ&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><br /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/KOz3Th3ugLQ&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/twl8bINw6DY&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><br /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/twl8bINw6DY&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/G-Ke5IM6moc&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><br /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/G-Ke5IM6moc&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/jMSRP3kpVMs&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><br /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/jMSRP3kpVMs&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>helton l. t. mourahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15764196043743163228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5878422925340486063.post-69365604137838289382009-05-01T09:32:00.000-07:002009-05-01T10:18:05.431-07:00<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsnJkTUCiI/AAAAAAAABS8/BNTyeqoSDJ4/s1600-h/ivansmeades64.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330897629240101410" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 215px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsnJkTUCiI/AAAAAAAABS8/BNTyeqoSDJ4/s320/ivansmeades64.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">SONNY BOY WILLIAMSON</span></strong><br /><br />Pouco sabemos sobre a infância de Sonny Boy Williamson. O que temos em mãos são informações des<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsmqpthXHI/AAAAAAAABSc/WHbQemiMeFQ/s1600-h/63-5-06b.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330897098116258930" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 215px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsmqpthXHI/AAAAAAAABSc/WHbQemiMeFQ/s320/63-5-06b.jpg" border="0" /></a>encontradas, lendas e hipóteses. Sonny Boy já nasceu como um mito, sem passado, sem presente, sem futuro. Apenas um nome no cenário do blues do Mississipi. Sua data de nascimento é outra incógnita, pois ele mesmo dava informações contraditórias sobre sí.<br />Sonny Boy gravou uma música chamada ''The Story of Sonny Boy Williamson'', onde cita 05 de dezembro de 1897 como a data de seu nascimento. Porém, nada garante que isto seja verdade. Ele era um astuto homem rude do campo. Nasceu em Glendora, no estado do Mississipi, um pequeno vilarejo no condado de Tallahatchie. Aos 7 anos, já tocava harmônica e trabalhava nas plantações de algodão. Nessa época, Sonny Boy já interpretava canções religiosas e polcas na harmônica. Mas sua história dentro do blues só iria iniciar-se realmente em 1951, quando Lillian McMurry, proprietária da gravadora Trumpet, ofereceu-lhe a oportunidade de gravar seu primeiro disco de 78 rotações intitulado "eyesight to the blind". Logo em seguida, outras gravações vieram. Nessa época, Sonny Boy Williamson já era um astro do rádio local. Tinha um programa na rádio KFFA de Helena, no Arkansas, que ia ao ar das 12:15 às 12h30 e era patrocinado pela companhia King Biscuit Corn Meal. O programa chamava-se "King Biscuit.Time" e foi exatamente nesse programa de Sonny Boy que B.B. King teve a primeira oportunidade de mostrar seu talento como bluesman. Outros vieram depois como Walter Horton, Little Walter, Fenton Robinsom...<br />Sonny Boy foi convidado pela Chess Records, através de seu proprietário, Leonard Chess a fazer parte do cast da gravadora. A essa altura, ele já havia gravado por várias empresas diferentes, entre elas, RCA, Sun e Ace. Mas foi na Chess Records que Sonny se tornou uma lenda viva. De repente, todos ouviam falar de Sonny Boy por toda parte, desde o estado da Flórida até o Texas. Surgiu então "Don`t Start me to Talkin`" , o maior sucesso comercial de Sonny Boy nos EUA. Em seguida as clássicas "Help Me" , e "Nine Below Zero". Em 1962, Sonny Boy foi convidado a participar de uma turnê pela Europa chamada "American Negroes Blues Festival", permanecendo em Londres, devido ao seu grande sucesso. No ano seguinte, uma nova versão do festival aconteceu , desta vez com o nome de "American Blues Festival", orga<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfsm9KGCpuI/AAAAAAAABSs/ZKIb1cwI_O4/s1600-h/PEQUENAb.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330897416046683874" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 215px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfsm9KGCpuI/AAAAAAAABSs/ZKIb1cwI_O4/s320/PEQUENAb.jpg" border="0" /></a>nizado por Willie Dixon. O sucesso de Sonny Boy Williamson foi tão grande que muitos grupos do cenário londrino praticamente imploraram para tocar com ele. Entre esses novatos estavam The Yardbirds de Eric Clapton, The Animals de Eric Burdon, The trinitys de Jimmy Page, Ciryl Davies, Chris Barber e Roland Kirk . Sonny era um mito nesse momento, um deus da harmônica, como rotulou-o Eric Burdon, em 1963.<br />A esta altura, Sonny Boy se vestia como um gentleman inglês, ternos impecáveis, luvas, guarda chuva e chapéu faziam parte de seu vestuário. Nosso velhinho era uma celebridade em Londres, mas algo dentro do seu coração clamava para que voltasse a velha e pequena cidade de Helena, no Arkansas. Ele presentia a morte chegando. Então, voltou para casa em abril de 1965. O apresentador do programa The King Biscuit Time, Sonny Payne, perguntou a Sonny Boy Williamson o motivo de sua volta para casa, já que era um sucesso na Europa e estava ganhando muito. dinheiro por lá. Sonny Boy disse: "Voltei para casa para morrer. Quero morrer na minha terra".<br />Segundo alguns amigos, Sonny tinha ido pescar com eles um dia antes de sua morte e salvado uma garota de afogar-se no rio. Os amigos acharam que o esforço foi demais para o velho coração do bluesman sexagená<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfsmqxn9u2I/AAAAAAAABSk/4PkbZZXxB_k/s1600-h/sbw-%26-op.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330897100240436066" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 237px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfsmqxn9u2I/AAAAAAAABSk/4PkbZZXxB_k/s320/sbw-%26-op.jpg" border="0" /></a>rio. A saúde de Soony já estava muito comprometida por uma cirrose, originada pelo alcoolismo. Segundo Robbie Robertson, ex-vocalista do The Hawks (posteriormente The Band), Sonny cuspia sangue freqüentemente. Uma hemorragia já dava sinal que o fim seria breve.<br />No dia 25 de maio de 1965, Sonny Boy Williamson foi encontrado morto em seu apartamento, há metros da rádio KFFA, onde tinha voltado a comandar o programa que o tornou notório na região do Mississipi. Seu baterista, O .J. Peck Curtis o encontrou morto, na cama. Sonny Boy Williamson faleceu de infarto durante o sono. Morria um mito, nascia uma lenda. A lenda de Sonny Boy Williamson. O rei da Harmônica.<br /><br />Fonte:<a href="http://www.nanton.com.br/sonnyboy/index_sonny.htm">http://www.nanton.com.br/sonnyboy/index_sonny.htm</a><br /><br /><br /><strong>ALBÚNS RECOMENDADOS<br /><br /></strong><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsnZwcVpQI/AAAAAAAABTE/jdP4npOiRVw/s1600-h/bluesmstr.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330897907377087746" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsnZwcVpQI/AAAAAAAABTE/jdP4npOiRVw/s320/bluesmstr.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />BLUES MASTERS<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsnaCQgu4I/AAAAAAAABTM/OCyBv2mqhR4/s1600-h/delta_blues.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330897912159320962" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsnaCQgu4I/AAAAAAAABTM/OCyBv2mqhR4/s320/delta_blues.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />DELTA BLUES<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsnaGmS0pI/AAAAAAAABTU/ubET5Uxx9qY/s1600-h/flowers.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330897913324425874" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsnaGmS0pI/AAAAAAAABTU/ubET5Uxx9qY/s320/flowers.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />DONT SEND ME NO FLOWERS<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfsnaa_R_7I/AAAAAAAABTc/RnuLTjfu-ao/s1600-h/ninebelowzero2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330897918797938610" style="WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/Sfsnaa_R_7I/AAAAAAAABTc/RnuLTjfu-ao/s320/ninebelowzero2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />NINE BELOW ZERO<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsnaUn9V6I/AAAAAAAABTk/nW7l69XA7Ok/s1600-h/liveinengland.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330897917089503138" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 197px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsnaUn9V6I/AAAAAAAABTk/nW7l69XA7Ok/s320/liveinengland.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />LIVE IN ENGLAND<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsngGCJWfI/AAAAAAAABTs/N8EMCrJeA6o/s1600-h/real.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330898016252025330" style="WIDTH: 199px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfsngGCJWfI/AAAAAAAABTs/N8EMCrJeA6o/s320/real.gif" border="0" /></a><br />THE REAL FOLK BLUES<br /><br /><br /><strong>VIDEOS SONNY BOY WILLIAMSON</strong><br /><br /><br /><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-b-UF0FlZjo&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-b-UF0FlZjo&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><br /><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/RxDUBAx_gxc&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/RxDUBAx_gxc&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><br /><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/IG3Z_R9wJ-w&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/IG3Z_R9wJ-w&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><br /><br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/DFRMBWgyH-M&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/DFRMBWgyH-M&hl=pt-br&fs=1&color1=0xe1600f&color2=0xfebd01" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>helton l. t. mourahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15764196043743163228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5878422925340486063.post-27745135003046757672009-04-27T07:33:00.000-07:002009-05-01T10:17:46.929-07:00<strong><span style="font-size:130%;">DAVE HOLE</span></strong><br /><br /><br /><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>Featuring 11 powerful new recordings, "ROUGH DIAMOND" presents a satisfying blend of fresh Hole originals with arrangements of songs from other composers that Dave has long aspired to record.

As a result, many who may have felt that previous Hole albums were targeted mainly to blues guitar lovers will find this collection surprisingly “listenable”. From the slow burning "Yours For A Song" to the white hot intensity of "White Trash Girl", Hole’s guitar is as astounding as ever and yet at no stage does it threaten to overwhelm – always serving to enhance the song itself. Not to say that there aren’t some guitar pyrotechnics here. There are times when that is exactly what is called for and Dave steps up to deliver the intensity and excitement for which he is justly renowned. As well as the aforementioned "Yours For A Song" and "White Trash Girl" highlights include the hard-driving "Rough Diamond Child", "I’ll Get To You" and "Vintage Wine" which features some scintillating slide guitar work. There’s plenty of rollicking blues with "Can’t Stop Loving You", "King Bee" and Robert Johnson’s "Rambling On My Mind", as well as a heart-stopping slow blues in the form of Elmore James’ "Something Inside Of Me". Perhaps most surprising is a cruising rendition of the standard "Since I Met You Baby". Throughout these performances, Dave gets powerful support from his talented side-men: Roy Daniel on bass, Ric Eastman on drums and Bob Patient on keyboards. After 8 previous releases and numerous world tours, Dave Hole is now widely regarded as one of the all-time slide guitar greats, with accolades from around the globe and a growing world-wide fan base. With his furious energy and amazing "over-the-top" style of playing, Dave Hole has carved his own place deep in the pantheon of slide guitar greats. His performances are drenched in waves of fret-melting guitar riffs that infuse the spirit of blues and rock slide legends such as Duane Allman, Johnny Winter and Elmore James. "Nothing interferes with Hole's searing guitar when he is in full flight," said Rolling Stone. Guitar World agreed, sayin<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfYIkG8RT3I/AAAAAAAABRc/QWy4Ki8VIlM/s1600-h/dave-hole.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329456625471278962" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfYIkG8RT3I/AAAAAAAABRc/QWy4Ki8VIlM/s320/dave-hole.jpg" border="0" /></a>g, "Hole produces solo upon blistering solo with slide work that is exhilaratingly relentless." Since his recording debut 16 years ago, Dave Hole's records and live performances have drawn raves from countless international publications, including Billboard, Spin, Guitar World, Downbeat and Guitar Player. Similarly, he's earned rapturous praise from the Associated Press and major US market dailys like the Chicago Tribune, Los Angeles Times and Washington Post. Billboard wrote; "Slide guitar fanatics will have their brains blown out by this Australian fret-melter ... Remarkably inventive, technically unusual overhand slide work that separates him from the common pack ... prepare to hear your jaw hitting the floor." Having fallen in love with music as a child, Dave spent his teenage years learning how to play by listening to every blues recording he could find. In 1991, after playing the Australian club circuit for over twenty years, he self-produced SHORT FUSE BLUES (BCD 1001), an album intended purely for direct sale to his fans. On a whim he mailed a copy to Jas Obrecht, then editor of Guitar Player magazine. "Magnificent, staggering ... almost beyond belief," raved Obrecht, who then tipped off Alligator Records president Bruce Iglauer. Iglauer, encouraged by his staff's excitement on hearing the album, released it to a world-wide audience. Almost overnight, Dave Hole became an international phenomenon. Considering all the praise Hole has received over the last few years, it's hard to believe that he has been performing for more than three decades. Born in England in 1948, he moved with his family to Perth, Western Australia when he was a child. He fell for the blues early on, when he heard a friend's Muddy Waters record. He yearned to hear more, but due to Perth's remoteness it was difficult to get any blues records on a regular basis. It was even rarer for a blues artist to perform there in person, so Hole had to teach himself to play. At first, only Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix albums were easily available, but with persistence (a trait Dave Hole has in abundance) he got his hands on records by Blind Willie Johnson, Skip James, Blind Lemon Jefferson and many others. Robert Johnson, Elmore James, and Mississippi Fred McDowell were his main "teachers", as he listened to their records over and over again, absorbing all he could from these blues masters. Then, either by accident or by fate, Hole broke his little finger in a football game. The only way he could continue to play slide guitar without pain was to put the slide on his index finger and hang his hand over the top of the guitar neck. When his finger healed, Hole had got so used to the 'wrong' way of playing (and grown so fond of the tone he was getting), that he never turned back. Throughout the 1970's and 80's Hole was gigging non-stop around Perth and the country towns of Western Australia, leaving audiences spellbound wherever he went. In 1990 he self produced his debut album "Short Fuse Blues". In April 1991 an album review appeared in the American "Guitar Player" magazine, followed by a July 1991 feature story which launched Hole to stardom. "Magnificent, staggering, almost beyond belief. Utterly Blues approved. ... ferocious, fire-breathing slide ... What more could you ask?" wondered the influential publication. Then Alligator Records president Bruce Iglauer took a chance and signed the only non U.S. based artist in the label's 30-year history. The gamble more than paid off. American critics praised Hole all over the country, and new fans were exposed to him through radio play on more than 1000 stations. Rave reviews appeared in Guitar World, Guitar For The Practicing Musician, Billboard, Audio, Spin, The Chicago Tribune, The Denver Post and many other major publications, as well as on The Associated Press newswire. And it's not just the critics who have been pa<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfYIkTgtL9I/AAAAAAAABRk/lnE-wZE3vUE/s1600-h/dhticket.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329456628845326290" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 290px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfYIkTgtL9I/AAAAAAAABRk/lnE-wZE3vUE/s320/dhticket.jpg" border="0" /></a>ying attention. Metallica's Kirk Hammett has named Dave Hole as one of his favourite guitarists, saying, "His slide playing kills me." People everywhere have taken notice. When veteran rock and blues guitarist Gary Moore heard "SHORT FUSE BLUES", he was so impressed that he invited Dave to join him on two European tours, playing large stadiums and arenas and concluding with two memorable nights at London's Royal Albert Hall. Subsequent albums and tours of the U.S. and Europe have solidified his stature as one of the very best guitarists playing today, taking him from virtual obscurity all the way to international recognition and admiration. His explosive live show has won him critical acclaim wherever he has gone. He constantly fills venues to overflowing and then proceeds to lift the rafters off with blistering performances. He has performed at countless blues festivals around the world and show after show have ended with rapturous applause. Blues Revue noted, "If this guy played with any more feeling, he'd have to go on Prozac. Dave Hole is not only a superb guitarist with a distinctive sound, he performs heart-felt vocals with the depth and credibility of any blues headliner touring today ... hard driving rocking blues ... he is electricity incarnate!" Hole has headlined festivals in many countries including America, Germany, Denmark, Holland, France, Switzerland and Australia. His two appearances at the prestigious Leverkussen Blues Festival in Germany were televised nationally. Tours have also included performances in Brazil, Sweden, Norway, Russia, Austria, Italy, Spain, Belgium and the U.K. Hole's second album, THE PLUMBER (BCD 1002) was released in 1992. This was followed by WORKING<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfYITMoGaEI/AAAAAAAABRM/PVilB4_BRjo/s1600-h/13_qy3h0034_thomas_vicente_sized.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329456334939514946" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfYITMoGaEI/AAAAAAAABRM/PVilB4_BRjo/s320/13_qy3h0034_thomas_vicente_sized.jpg" border="0" /></a> OVERTIME (BCD1003) (1993), STEEL ON STEEL (BCD1004) (1994), TICKET TO CHICAGO (BCD1005) (1996), UNDER THE SPELL (BCD1006) (1998) OUTSIDE LOOKING IN (BCD1007) (2001) and THE LIVE ONE (BCD 1008) (2003). These have received airplay on thousands of radio stations across America, Europe and elsewhere. Playboy, Esquire, Billboard, Musician, New York Magazine, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Daily News and all the guitar publications ran features and reviews on these albums. "While many bottleneck players base their styles on a few patented patterns, Dave Hole sprays a steely fire all over the strings, navigating stratospheric leaps with the greatest of ease," wrote Guitar Player. "Hole has a molten tone that will harden into a hopeless tangle, then bust loose for some old-fashioned catharsis", said New York magazine, "He's a modernist mining a classic blues vein". "UNDER THE SPELL" won an Australian ARIA award. "THE LIVE ONE", capturing as it does the full-blooded power of his live performances, has proven extremely popular with Dave's legions of fans world-wide. Audiences around the globe have thrilled to Hole's astounding guitar virtuosity and heartfelt vocals and this release demonstrates why. For those who are already familiar with Dave Hole's work, his new album "ROUGH DIAMOND" represents an exciting new milestone in his recording career. For others there can be no better introduction to the blues and rock artistry of this unique talent. </div><div></div><div>fonte:<a href="http://www.davehole.com/">http://www.davehole.com/</a> [ <a class="fl" href="http://translate.google.com.br/translate?hl=pt-BR&sl=en&u=http://www.davehole.com/&ei=BgX2SavvBaWyMKL_xLYP&sa=X&oi=translate&resnum=1&ct=result&prev=/search%3Fq%3Ddave%2Bhole%26hl%3Dpt-BR">Traduzir esta página</a> ]</div><div><br /><br /></div><div><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">ALBÚNS RECOMENDADOS</span></strong><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfYI393vXoI/AAAAAAAABRs/6V6rxSrxPdk/s1600-h/c55524t59sq.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329456966633741954" style="WIDTH: 200px;

His family migrated to Chicago in 1951, and Luther began soaking in the sounds of Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy Williamson, and Robert Nighthawk. He was classmates with Muddy Waters' son and occasionally stopped in the Waters' house to watch the master rehearse. It wasn't until he was 18 already in Chicago for seven years that Luther began playing blues on a real guitar and jamming with his brother Ollie's band.By 1957, Allison had dropped out of school and formed a band called The Rolling Stones. Unhappy with the name, they became The Four Jivers, gigging all over the West Side of Chicago. Before long, Luther was jamming with the West Side's best, including Magic Sam, Otis Rush, and Freddie King, who encouraged Allison to sing. "That," said Allison, "was my school." When King began to tour nationally in the early 1960s, Allison took over King's band as well as his weekly gigs at Walton's Corner and became one of the hottest acts on the West Side. For five years, Allison honed his craft. He moved to California for a year and cut sides with fellow Chicagoans Shakey Jake Harris and Sunnyland Slim. He cut his first two songs as a leader on the now-classic Delmark anthology, Sweet Home Chicago, before releasing his first solo album (also on Delmark), Love Me Mama , a record of hard-hitting blues that spoke to the growing rock audience. But even before his debut album came out, Luther landed a headlining spot at the influential Ann Arbor Blues Festival in 1969, and went from relative unknown to major blues-rock attraction. "His guitar riffs seemed to defy the possible," raved John Fishel, the program director of the festival, who brought Allison back to perform at the following two festivals.Allison signed with Motown Records in 1972 as the label's only blues act. His three recor<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfW5bvwU01I/AAAAAAAABQU/ESLK5WKc6l8/s1600-h/LutherAllison_88_04Cs.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329369620389614418" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 216px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfW5bvwU01I/AAAAAAAABQU/ESLK5WKc6l8/s320/LutherAllison_88_04Cs.jpg" border="0" /></a>ds for the Gordy subsidiary led to numerous concert dates and both national and international festival appearances, but domestically, interest in the blues was fading. After finding instant acceptance in Europe, he was convinced that Paris was the place to be. While he gained superstar status in Europe and released a dozen European records, his presence in the American music scene diminished.With the release of Soul Fixin' Man in 1994, Allison's first domestic album in 20 years, he announced his return. "Fever and chills performances," said Guitar Player, "ferocious solos combine the wisdom of a master storyteller with the elegance of B.B. King, the elasticity of Buddy Guy, and the big sting of Albert King." After three mammoth U.S. tours, America once again was paying attention to Luther Allison. Allison followed up with Blue Streak, and the praise and accolades poured in. "A sonic roar as soulful as his gospel-shout vocals," raved the Washington Post. "Luther Allison's latest is nothing short of a masterpiece by a master," reported Blues Revue. Continued touring brought Allison before raving fans around the world, as he brought his band from the San Francisco Blues Festival to New York's Central Park Summerstage, with all stops in between. With Reckless, Allison reached even greater heights. Guitar World said, "Reckless in the best sense of the word, dancing on a razor's edge, remaining just this side of out-of-c<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfW5OmetAKI/AAAAAAAABQM/5lm4kv0XsN0/s1600-h/Luther_Allison_Press_Photo.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329369394561482914" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfW5OmetAKI/AAAAAAAABQM/5lm4kv0XsN0/s320/Luther_Allison_Press_Photo.jpg" border="0" /></a>ontrol. Hard-driving, piercing West Side Chicago single-note leads with a soul base and a rock edge." Throughout it all, Allison delivered one show-stopping performance after another. His boundless energy and fierce guitar attack combined to make him a blues superstar who reached rock fans like no bluesmen since Freddie King and Albert Collins. When the news broke that Allison had been diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer in July of 1997, the blues world was shocked. When he died just four weeks later, they were devastated. Without a doubt, Luther Allison's death robbed music fans of one of the most exciting and popular blues performers ever. With Live In Chicago, Allison lives on, as he tears through the songs with the single-minded desire to give everything he has to his audience. While listening to the album, fans can immerse themselves in the explosive power of Luther Allison's music and experience the redemptive force of his legendary performances.<br /><br /><br /><br />fonte:<a href="http://www.luther-allison.com/">http://www.luther-allison.com/</a> [ <a class="fl" href="http://translate.google.com.br/translate?hl=pt-BR&sl=en&u=http://www.luther-allison.com/&ei=mbX1SYi3CZKWMfrb7LAP&sa=X&oi=translate&resnum=1&ct=result&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dluther%2Ballison%26hl%3Dpt-BR">Traduzir esta página</a> ]<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">ALBÚNS RECOMENDADOS</span></strong><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfW51CyVu4I/AAAAAAAABQc/jvee_M_gn3c/s1600-h/c824951a6gs.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329370054995065730" style="WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfW51CyVu4I/AAAAAAAABQc/jvee_M_gn3c/s320/c824951a6gs.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?

O grupo fez algumas apresentações em 1963, tocando ao redor de Richmond, e após isso, os dois se juntam ao The Engineers, que também não foi muito longe.<br />O reconhecimento de Clapton só começou quando ele entrou no Yardbirds, banda inglesa de grande influência que teve o mérito de reunir três dos maiores guitarristas de todos os tempos em sua formação: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck e Jimmy Page (que mais tarde formaria o Led Zeppelin).<br />Apesar do sucesso que o grupo estava fazendo, Clapton não admitia abandonar o blues e na opinião dele, o Yardbirds estava seguindo uma direção muito pop. Sai do grupo em 1965, e John Mayall convida-o a juntar-se a sua banda: os Bluesbreakers.<br />Gravam o álbum Bluesbreaker e fazem uma série de shows pelos EUA. Porém, seu relacionamento com Mayall não era dos melhores, e ele deixou o grupo pouco tempo depois. Em 1966, forma o power trio Cream, com o baixista Jack Bruce e o batera Ginger Baker.<br />Com a gravação de 3 álbuns (Fresh Cream, Disraeli Gears, e Wheels Of Fire) e muitos shows em terras norte americanas, o Cream atingiu enorme sucesso e o nome Eric Clapton já era tido como um dos melhores guitarristas da história. A banda se separa no fim de 1968 com mais brigas e discussões entre Clapton e seus companheiros de grupo.<br />Forma o Blind Faith com Steve Winwood, Ginger Baker, e Rick Grech, que durou só um disco, e que não foi muito bem sucedido. Após isso, Clapton ficou muito próximo de George Harrison, gravando os solos de "While my guitar gently sleeps", do álbum branco dos Beatles e iniciando um triângulo amoroso com a mulher dele. Excursiona com Delaney & Bonnie.<br />Um álbum ao vivo dessa turnê foi lançado em 1970 e no mesmo ano saiu o primeiro álbum solo do guitarrista. Juntamente com dissidentes da banda Delanie and Bonnie, montou a banda Derek and The Dominos, com quem lançou um de seus maiores sucessos como a mú<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfUVgKBdWBI/AAAAAAAABP0/u0nCC7MtW2I/s1600-h/eric_clapton.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329189376253319186" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 236px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfUVgKBdWBI/AAAAAAAABP0/u0nCC7MtW2I/s320/eric_clapton.jpg" border="0" /></a>sica "Layla", uma declaração explícita à esposa de George Harrison. Participou ainda da banda Duane Allman (que mais tarde fundaria os Allman Brothers).<br />Problemas pessoais e conflitos emocionais no início da década de 70, levaram Clapton a se afundar cada vez mais no vício em heroína e álcool. O guitarrista fica vários anos "desaparecido" na mídia, tentando se recuperar em clínicas para dependentes químicos.<br />Em 1974, Clapton volta com o reggae "I shot the sheriff", tornando-se o responsável pelo lançamento de Bob Marley nas paradas de todo o mundo. Inicia assim uma boa fase musical que rendeu também o clássico "Cocaine", em 1978. Durante a década de 80 a aceitação por parte do público foi crescente. Em 1990 Clapton ganhou seu primeiro Grammy com a música "Bad love".<br />No ano de 1991, o filho Conor, de 4 anos, nascido de um relacionamento extra-conjugal, caiu do apartamento onde morava com a mãe e faleceu. Esse triste episódio foi registrado na canção "Tears in heaven" que o guitarrista dedicou ao filho. A música, além de expressar toda a tristeza de Clapton, tornou-se o maior sucesso de toda a sua carreira e teria seu lançamento no álbum Unplugged.<br />O disco acústico foi um sucesso absoluto e ganhou dezenas de prêmios, inclusive 6 Grammys. Unplugged marcou ainda uma volta de Clapton às suas raízes de blues, que teria seqüência com o álbum From The Craddle, apenas de canções tradicionais, ou seja, um tributo aos clássicos o influenciaram.<br />Em 1998, Clapton lançou Pilgrim, o primeiro álbum dele de material inédito em nove anos. Nesse álbum, Clapton fala sobre todos os dramas pessoais como a falta do pai, a morte do filho querido, os vícios e o amor perd<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfUVOnGu10I/AAAAAAAABPs/MEzBjRm0VN0/s1600-h/040109154441DR1014_Eric_CLAPTON_C-753347.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329189074822420290" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 216px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfUVOnGu10I/AAAAAAAABPs/MEzBjRm0VN0/s320/040109154441DR1014_Eric_CLAPTON_C-753347.jpg" border="0" /></a>ido, além de revelar um profundo amadurecimento como cantor.<br />O guitarrista estava de volta ao mundo do blues tradicional, estilo que sempre teve como objetivo. A prova disso é quem em 2000, ele juntou-se a nada menos que B.B. King para o lançamento de Riding with the King, álbum muito bem recebido por todos. No ano seguinte, lança o diversificado Reptile, que tem desde blues clássico ("Got you on my mind"), baladas ("Believe in life"), faixas animadas ("Superman inside") e tristes ( "Son & Sylvia"). A turnê desse disco ainda passou pelo Brasil, nas cidades de Porto Alegre, Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo, onde Clapton tocou no estádio do Pacaembu.<br />Em 2002, sai o duplo ao vivo One More Car, One More Rider sendo que a versão em DVD traz "Will It Go Round In Circles" como bônus.<br /><br /><br /><br /><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">ALBÚNS RECOMENDADOS</span></strong><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wqsjIkOeVcw/SfUT3olmk4I/AAAAAAAABO8/aeRC2c0rq2U/s1600-h/f111221db3s.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329187580571718530" style="WIDTH: 200px;

The lady's no shrinking violet; her autobiography, Rage to Survive, describes her past (including numerous drug addictions) in sordid detail.But her personal problems have seldom affected her singing. James has hung in there from the age of R&B and doo wop in the mid-'50s through soul's late-'60s heyday and right up into the '90s and 2000s (where her 1994 disc </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:wjfpxqtgldje"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Mystery Lady</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> paid loving jazz-based tribute to one of her idols, </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:kcfqxqt5ldde"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Billie Holiday</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">). Etta James' voice has deepened over the years, coarsened more than a little, but still conveys remarkable passion and pain.Jamesetta Hawkins was a child gospel prodigy, singing in her Los Angeles Baptist church choir (and over the radio) when she was only five years old under the tutelage of </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:kifrxqt5ldde"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Professor James Earle Hines</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">. She moved to San Francisco in 1950, soon teaming with two other girls to form a singing group. When she was 14, bandleader </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:hifixq95ld0e"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Johnny Otis</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> gave the trio an audition.

Against her mother's wishes, the young singer embarked for L.A. to record "Roll With Me Henry" with the </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:hifixq95ld0e"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Otis</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> band and vocalist </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:k9fixqr5ldde"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Richard Berry</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> in 1954 for Modern Records. </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:hifixq95ld0e"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Otis</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> inverted her first name to devise her stage handle and dubbed her vocal group </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=1:THEPEACHES"><span style="color:#ffffff;">the Peaches</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> (also Etta's nickname).

James landed at Chicago's Chess Records in 1960, signing with their Argo subsidiary. Immediately, her recording career kicked into high gear; not only did a pair of duets with her then-boyfriend (</span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:kpfqxqe5ldse"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Moonglows</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> lead singer </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:gbftxqu5ldhe"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Harvey Fuqua</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">) chart, her own sides (beginning with the tortured ballad "All I Could Do Was Cry") chased each other up the R&B lists as well. </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:3vfexqe5ldhe"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Leonard Chess</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> viewed James as a classy ballad singer with pop crossover potential, backing her with lush violin orchestrations for 1961's luscious "At Last" and "Trust in Me." But James' rougher side wasn't forsaken — the gospel-charged "Something's Got a Hold on Me" in 1962, a kinetic 1963 live LP (</span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:j9fyxq95ldhe"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Etta James Rocks the House</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">) cut at Nashville's New Era Club, and a blues-soaked 1966 duet with childhood pal </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:hifuxqe5ld6e"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Sugar Pie De Santo</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, "In the Basement," ensured that. Although Chess hosted its own killer house band, James traveled to </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:3nftxqw5ldae"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Rick Hall</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">'s Fame studios in Muscle Shoals in 1967 and emerged with one of her all-time classics. "Tell Mama" was a searing slice of upbeat Southern soul that contrasted markedly with another standout from the same sessions, the spine-chilling ballad "I'd Rather Go Blind." Despite the death of </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:3vfexqe5ldhe"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Leonard Chess</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, Etta James remained at the label into 1975, experimenting toward the end with a more rock-based approach. There were some mighty lean years, both personally and professionally, for Miss Peaches. But she got back on track recording-wise in 1988 with a set for Island, </span><a href="http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:jnfwxqu5ldfe"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Seven Year Itch</span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;">, that reaffirmed her Southern soul mastery.
