[PRV RECOMENDA] LUIZ ZAMITH - Introspeco - 2018

Posted: 16 Sep 2019 04:46 AM PDT
http://www.progrockvintage.com/2019/09/prv-recomenda-luiz-zamith-introspeccao.html


Luiz Zamith nasceu na capital fluminense em 1964 e ainda muito jovem
ingressou no Conservatório Brasileiro de Música, dando seus primeiros
passos nos estudos dedicados ao Violão. Anos mais tarde, ingressou na
Escola de Música da UFRJ onde graduou-se em Violão Clássico, chegando a
participar por um período de dois anos da Orquestra de Violões do Rio de
Janeiro.

Após diversos trabalhos voltados para MPB, Zamith se rende á suas maiores
influências musicais e lança no ano de 2014 um brilhante projeto intitulado
por 'Ícones do Progressivo'.

Esse projeto tem como objetivo adaptar versões instrumentais de bandas como
ELP, Focus, Genesis, PFM, YES, dentre outras. Além de composições autorais
de alto nível, muito me surpreende o talento e dedicação em cada acorde
executado por esse distinto guitarrista que vem acompanhado por uma banda
de peso.


Acervo Luiz Zamith e bandaO objetivo central da publicação de hoje é o
álbum 'Introspecção', lançado em 2018. Esse projeto já vinha se desenhando
há algum tempo e finalmente temos a felicidade de apreciar seu resultado
final.

O disco é dedicado á memória de Luiz Fernado Zamith, grande influenciador
do guitarrista em questão e foi pianista, violoncelista e arranjador da
Orquestra Sinfônica do Rio de Janeiro.

As primeiras e positivas impressões giram em torno de uma arte gráfica de
extremo bom gosto. A tela principal da capa vem das mãos do talentoso
artista plástico, amigo e também baterista Cláudio Dantas (Quaterna
Réquiem, Vitral). A junção disso tudo ficou sob responsabilidade do querido
Gustavo Paiva da Masque Records que centralizou todo o trabalho gráfico nas
mãos do competente Gustavo Sazes, que também trabalhou no disco de estréia
da banda Vitral. As inserções fotográficas ficaram sob as habilidosas
lentes dos queridos Calos Vaz e Pedro Paulo Ripper.

A produção de áudio ficou a encargo de Daniel Escobar proprietário da HR
Estúdio. Sendo que, seis faixas foram captadas por Escobar nas
apresentações ao vivo no Teatro Solar de Botafogo em datas distintas e as
outras três gravadas no estúdio em questão.

Além de Zamith, a banda conta com a participação de integrantes já citados
no Progrockvintage com certo destaque. São eles:

- Augusto Mattoso (baixo)
- Elcio Cáfaro (bateria)
- Paulo Teles (flautas)
- Ronaldo Rodrigues (teclados)

Acervo de Pedro Paulo RipperO álbum abre com a faixa-título, obra bastante
tenra centralizada em acordes de violão e delicadas melodias de flauta. Sua
abertura define bem o que vem pela frente.

Na segunda faixa contamos com uma peça que, em minha modesta opinião é a
que mais se destaca no decorrer da audição. "Alguém ainda se lembra das
Antas", traduz muito bem a preocupação do também biólogo Luiz Zamith com os
diversos e ricos ecossistemas brasileiros tão judiados pela ação maléfica
do homem na natureza. Aqui encontramos melodias um tanto 'abrasileiradas'
que reúnem fortes solos de guitarra a lindas passagens de flauta,
entrelaçados a poderosos solos de Hammond e sintetizadores.

Em "Outro Dia" e "Cantiga", a banda destila ainda mais sua técnica em
passagens bastante fusionadas ao Jazz, combinando diversos tipos de ritmos
e harmonias um tanto diversificadas. A cozinha baixo e bateria em constante
simetria, dita o compasso da guitarra e aos órgãos unidos a brasilidade da
elegante flauta.

"Tema Nº 1" emendada a "Vice-Versa" também agrega ao fusion, com fortes
solos de guitarra e, mais uma vez, belas passagens de flauta.

"Balada", também uma de minhas favoritas, creio que seja a mais próxima ao
progressivo sinfônico vindo de terras inglesas. Aqui é notória a incrível
referência ao ilustre guitarrista Steve Hackett, músico este muito admirado
por Zamith. Nitidamente, percebemos a essência do Genesis não somente nesta
faixa em particular, como também em alguns fragmentos contidos nesse álbum.

"Trem de Cão" é a única faixa cantada e de extremo bom gosto, de autoria da
talentosa Masé Sant'Anna, parceira musical de longa data de Zamith. Já tive
a oportunidade de vê-los dividindo o palco em uma bela apresentação no Rio
em 2017.

Fechando essa linda obra vem, "Essência" que me remeteu aos tempos áureos
do Focus em contundentes solos de guitarra, entrelaçados a espetaculares
solos de flauta e um Hammond de peso.


Acervo de Carlos VazTrata-se de um disco denso, intenso, tenro que, mesmo
passando por diversas influências de medalhões dos anos 70, possui uma
forte ligação com a música brasileira de qualidade.

É mais um trabalho que comprova ainda mais que o Rock Progressivo
brasileiro muito se destaca nesse gênero tão complexo e muito admirado por
milhões de pessoas. São projetos como esse que permitem que o progressivo
ainda tenha força e possa influenciar jovens bandas que pretendem seguir em
frente, mesmo com todos os obstáculos em termos de captação de recursos
para a realização e divulgação de seus trabalhos.

O disco físico pode ser adquirido através dos seguintes contatos:

Segue abaixo dois registros capturados pela BeProg no Teatro Solar de
Botafogo no Rio de Janeiro:

Sha Na Na (Rock'n Roll is Here to Stay) LP 1969

Posted: 15 Sep 2019 01:52 PM PDT
https://allmusic-wingsofdream.blogspot.com/2019/09/sha-na-na-rockn-roll-is-here-to-stay-lp.html






In the mid-1970s, when '50s nostalgia was all the rage, rock-&-roll
revivalists Sha Na Na (who had formed in the '60s, and performed at
Woodstock) reached their peak, even landing their own TV show, but their
reputation was made on records like the ones compiled on this twofer.
Containing Sha Na Na's first two albums, this release is full of '50s doo
wop and rock-&-roll classics given reverential but energetic updates,
making them seem fresh and vital for the new generation and keeping that
crucial sense of fun intact.
Enjoy.

The Peanuts ヒットパレード (The Hit Parade) (1960)

Posted: 15 Sep 2019 12:24 PM PDT
https://allmusic-wingsofdream.blogspot.com/2019/09/the-peanuts-hit-parade-1960.html






The Peanuts (ザ・ピーナッツ Za Pīnattsu) were a Japanese vocal group
consisting of twin sisters Emi Itō (伊藤エミ, Itō Emi) and Yumi Itō (伊藤ユ
ミ, Itō Yumi). They were born in Nagoya, Japan in January 1941. Their
uniqueness was their being monozygotic twins, with voices only slightly
apart in timbre which resulted in their singing together sounding like a
solo artist using double tracking or reverb).While still in high school,
the twins were discovered by a talent scout while performing at a night
club and were brought to Tokyo where they became the first clients for
Watanabe Productions. In 1959, the Peanuts became a hit at the Nichigeki
theater. That same year, they released their first recording, Kawaii Hana
("Cute Flower"). In their early years they sang Japanese covers of
standards, foreign hits, and Japanese folk songs; then they began singing
originals, written by their producer, Hiroshi Miyagawa, and such
songwriters as Koichi Sugiyama and Rei Nakanishi. They were the first to
perform "Koi no Vacance".
Later, the twins embarked on a brief acting career, appearing as Mothra's
twin fairies, known as the Shobijin, in the 1961 film Mothra, and the 1964
films Mothra vs. Godzilla and Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster. In the
audio commentary for the DVD of Mothra vs. Godzilla, it is noted that
director Ishirō Honda fondly recalled the Itos' professionalism. Though not
primarily actresses by trade, they were surprisingly skilled, learned their
lines quickly, and always worked on time, despite their own busy schedules.
While the Peanuts were born identical twins, Emi had a mole near her left
eye. To preserve their identical twin image, Yumi would have a mole drawn
near her left eye.They appeared in the United States on The Ed Sullivan
Show on April 3, 1966, performing "Lover Come Back to Me".
Unusual for Japanese singers at the time, the duo had success in Germany,
as well as in Austria. In 1963 Caterina Valente was in Japan where the duo
caught her attention. Valente invited them to Germany. On the occasion of
the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Michael Pfleghar produced the opening
ceremonies, where both were also invited, and the musical director Heinz
Kiessling produced German-language recordings with them,
including "Souvenirs from Tokyo". In 1965, Pfleghar cast them in two other
shows "The Smile in the West" and "Schlager-Festspiele". In total, they
released eight singles in the German language between 1964 and 1967. In
1965 "Souvenirs from Tokyo" reached No. 18 on the Austrian charts and spent
2 weeks at No. 40 on the German Billboard charts. In 1967 "Bye, Bye
Yokohama" spent 4 weeks on the Germany charts, rising to No. 30. In 1966,
the duo also performed at the Olympia in Paris.
The pair retired from performing in 1975 after Emi married fellow Nabepro
star Kenji Sawada. The duo is remembered most for its versions of European
songs and for a handful of Japanese pop songs, such as "Furimukanaide"
("Don't Turn Around").
Emi Itō died on June 15, 2012, at the age of 71. Yumi died on May 18, 2016,
at the age of 75.

RIP

Vince Taylor The Story Of.. (AVI Format) (Movie) (ENG)

Posted: 14 Sep 2019 04:01 AM PDT
https://allmusic-wingsofdream.blogspot.com/2019/09/vince-taylor-story-of-avi-format-movie.html

Vince Taylor The Rise and Fall



Original Ziggy - The Doomed Brit Rocker Who Inspired Bowie* The death of
David Bowie, coming like a lightning bolt from the blue, has gotten the
world talking about his influence and legacy.
It's made me think about the people who influenced him - and in particular,
a long forgotten British Rock n'Roller, one of the originals, who was the
inspiration (or at least partly) for Ziggy Stardust.
This is the story of Vince Taylor. And I think the story is worth telling.
Vince Taylor is from the Stone Age. The least fashionable era of British
Rock and Pop Music, when the early pioneers who heard the very earliest
Yank Rock N'Roll - often on radio stations serving US servicemen in Europe
- came up with a weird, mid-Atlantic take on the music.
They they look and attitude of Elvis, Carl Perkins, Eddie Cochrane and Gene
Vincent and came up with a strange, ersatz copy, in the way the
British-made cars of the era aped the Fins and Chrome look of Yank cars of
the era on a smaller, more homely scale.
They were the likes of Cliff Richard and Johnny Kidd. And one of the
biggest at the time - Rock n'Roll wildman Vince Taylor - is now virtually
forgotten.
But every time you hear Bowie sing Ziggy, you are hearing the story of
Vince, the Black Leather clad, chain-swinging maniac who was the first
British Rock star, exploding at that moment between grey, post-war
austerity and the birth of Beat Music and the Liverpool Sound.
And when David Bowie created Ziggy Stardust, he had in mind the
long-forgotten Rock n'Roll star called Vince Taylor, the original Live,
Fast, Die Young wildman of Brit Rock.
As he explained in a BBC Documentary in the '90s - Bowie used to hang out
with Taylor in London in the mid-60's when the singer was well past his
brief, blazing hey-day.
By this stage, Taylor was pretty much out of his mind on drink and drugs.
Bowie recalled how, Taylor would always carry maps around with him. And one
day in a bar close to Charing Cross Road, Taylor took out one of the maps
and started pointing to locations where UFOs would soon land.
The old Rocker had formed a theory that Jesus Christ was really an alien.
Taylor had started doing gigs in old pubs dressed in white robes and
telling bemused, sparse audiences that he was, in fact, Jesus Christ.
Taylor was convinced that there was a strong connection between himself,
aliens and the Lord.
Bowie resurrected Vince Taylor in the early 70s, when Taylor’s flipped-out
Rock n'Roll religion became one of the main ingredients of Ziggy.
Taylor was born in London, raised in the US and returned back home as a
teenager just in time to catch the Rock n'Roll wave. As the wildly
gyrating, black leather clad front-man for Vince Taylor & The Playboys, he
shone very brightly, very briefly. His later life was a sort of slow
descent, booze, drugs, bankruptcy, bad choices, ever diminishing crowds.
Vince, real name Brian Holden, was born in Isleworth, Middlsex just before
the war. His father moved the family to the US in 1946 and in 1955, his
sister married Joe Barbera, one half of the animation duo who produced huge
cartoon series such as Captain Caveman and Wacky Races.
They moved to California, where the teenage Brian was exposed to early Rock
n'Roll and started singing in bands. Inspired by Elvis and Gene Vince, he
changed his name to Vince Taylor and decided to move back to Britain.
It was perfect timing. The late '50s saw Rock n'Roll explode in the UK and
Vince, with his Black Leather & Swinging Chain Wildman act, was soon
enjoying the first of a string of hits. With Elvis, Gene Vincent and Eddie
Cochrane on the other side of the Atlantic, Vince Taylor was as close to
the real thing as most teens and the music industry could get.
He was a big draw during the brief heyday of British Rock n'Roll. But saw
his career fade in the UK. He remained popular in France and The
Netherlands, as a sort of Anglophone Johnny Halliday, a throwback to the
glory days of black leather and greased back hair.
Billed - with his band - as "Vince Taylor et ses Play-Boys", he lived much
of the the rest of his life in France and Switzerland. By the '80s, he had
largely kicked his drink and drug problems and was working as an aircraft
mechanic, a period which he called "the happiest days of my life".
He died of cancer in 1991, aged 54 and is buried in Lausanne, Switzerland.
Vince is now virtually forgotten, except for those - like Bowie - who
remembered him in his heyday.
A b-side of his from '59 - Brand New Cadillac - has been covered by many
artists - including The Clash on London's Calling.
But as Van Morrison put it in his 1999 song "Goin' Down Geneva": "Vince
Taylor used to live here/No one's even heard of him/Just who he was/Just
where he fits in".

Juan Bastos (Loop Di Love) Single (GER) 1970-71

Continuing The International Record Collection is....




Label:Admiral Records ‎– AD 1147Format:Vinyl, 7", 45 RPM,
SingleCountry:GermanyReleased:1970Genre:Rock, PopStyle:Pop Rock

My Personnel Opinion is..It's One of Those Songs You Love or You Hate..Lol
"Loop di Love" is a schlager pop song written by German musicians Dieter
Dierks and Michael Schepior, based on the traditional Greek song "Darla
dirladada".
It was first recorded in 1971 by Rolf Steitz (born in Cologne, Germany, 7
January 1952) performing under the pseudonym Juan Bastós. This version was
a hit in Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. Bastós also had a hit in
Europe with "Holy Goly Girl", and later worked as a songwriter and as a
member of the band Santiago and the duo Bogart.(A One Hit Wonder)
"Loop di Love" was then recorded by English musician and entrepreneur
Jonathan King, who released it in August 1972 on his UK record label under
the pseudonym Shag. King's vocals were treated electronically for the
record, and it was arranged by Johnny Arthey. The version by Shag reached
no.4 on the UK singles chart. The record was also released in the US,
Australia, and in Europe.
In 2001, Austrian artist DJ Ötzi recorded a German language version of the
song entitled "Loop Die Love", which can be found on his album
entitled "Love, Peace & Vollgas"
Here is The UK Version Top Countdown in 1971

Jefferson (The Colour of my Love) LP (CD) 1969

Posted: 13 Sep 2019 01:32 PM PDT
https://allmusic-wingsofdream.blogspot.com/2019/09/jefferson-colour-of-my-love-lp-cd-1969.html







The musical career of British singer Jefferson began in 1961 as a lead
singer and solo guitarist in the formation The Rockin 'Berries.
After the group dissolves in 1968, Geoffrey Turton starts his solo career,
names himself with the artist Jefferson and is successful with the Paul
Ryan number The Color Of My Love.
At the end of the same year, he joins the US Top 40 with Baby Take Me In
Your Arms. Also two LP's from the same period come in the charts.
Geoffrey Turton was born in Birmingham, UK, in 1944. Turton attended
Turves Green Secondary Boys School. He played clarinet in the school band
and it was there he met fellow clarinetist, Brian “Chuck” Botfield, around
1954. Botfield went on to Moseley College of Art and formed a skiffle band
called the Bobcats. (In the late 50’s, one of the band members was
Christine Perfect. She went on to become Christine McVie and was a lead
vocalist for Fleetwood Mac). The Bobcats were renamed The Rockin’ Berries
since they played a lot of songs by American R&B singer and guitar player,
Chuck Berry. Meanwhile, Geoff Turton was in another band called The
Swinging Chimes. The Rockin’ Berries had a tour to Germany, but had failed
to land a record contract. Some of the band members departed and Chuck
Botfield asked Geoffrey Turton to join the band ahead of the German tour.
Turton remembers, “I got the call from Chuck right out of the blue so I
literally downed tools – I was working in a factory as a toolmaker – and
flew out to Germany to join them.”
Once they got to Germany Turton found the band was playing six-hour sets at
concert halls. This was too hard for lead singer, Clive Lea, to do all the
singing. “I’d never really sung before, just played the guitar. We…needed
more than one singer. Clive was doing all the lead vocals at that time, I
was doing back-ups and so I tried a few things out. We suddenly found that
I could sing in this falsetto. The first thing I did on stage was Frank
Ifield’s hit ‘I Remember You’,” explains Turton. When they returned home to
Birmingham the band soon got a record contract with Decca. They had several
Top Ten hits in the UK. The first was “He’s In Town,” in October 1964,
featuring Geoff Turton’s falsetto. The Carole King-Gerry Goffin song was a
cover of a tune first recorded by The Tokens (#43 on Billboard Hot 100).
While “He’s In Town” climbed to #3 in the UK, The Rockin’ Berries were an
opening act on tour with headliners, Bill Haley & The Comets and Manfred
Mann. Geoff Turton recalls, “We really couldn’t believe it when it first
happened to us. It was the last thing we expected. We knew all about the
screamers of course because of all the hit groups and singers we’d been
supporting and touring with. We just couldn’t hear ourselves playing or
singing!”
Most of the singles The Rockin’ Berries released were covers of recording
artists from the USA and Canada. The band had one more Top Ten triumph
covering a minor hit for the Detroit band, The Reflections, of “(Just Like)
Romeo And Juliette” fame. The Reflections’ single “Poor Man’s Son”, was
recorded by The Rockin’ Berries and climbed to #5 on the British charts.
However, their star began to fade. By early 1966 they scored their final
Top 50 hit. Though they released another eight singles, they were all
commercial failures. Among these was “Smile,” a cover of the Charlie
Chaplin classic. While other British recording artists became part of the
British Invasion in the mid-60’s, The Rockin’ Berries focused on cabaret
performances in Britain.
Geoff Turton left The Rockin’ Berries at the end of 1966 to focus on family
commitments. Turton went solo in 1968 and released a single that was a
flop. Picadilly Records advised Turton to change his stage name to
Jefferson. With a new pop music persona he released “Colour Of My Love”.
The single was a hit in the UK, peaking at #22, and reaching #68 on the
Billboard charts. It peaked at #7 in Vancouver.
The Colour Of My Love by Jefferson
“The Colour Of My Love” is a song about a guy who is in love with a woman.
He is convinced she loves him back, but she won’t let him get close to her.
He thinks she may have a boyfriend, but still is determined to win her
love. He asks the metaphorical muse of romantics, love maker, to help him
compose a song for him so he can woo her. Meanwhile, he’s in a trance
thinking about the colour of her hair and its likeness to the sun, as well
as the colour of her eyes that are equally entrancing. Songs about the
determination of a guy to woo a female away from another guy is not
uncommon in pop music. It was only five days ago, on March 22/18, that I
reviewed “I’m Gonna Love You Too“, Terry Jacks cover of an old Buddy Holly
song. In that case the guy is gonna do his best to “hook” the gal of his
dreams. In the case of “The Colour Of My Love”, the strategy is to “play
the game” his “own true love” is playing.
“The Colour Of My Love” was originally written and recorded by Barry Ryan,
a British pop singer. Ryan’s version climbed into the Top 30 in Denmark,
but missed the UK singles chart as Jefferson’s version of the song raced up
the UK pop charts into the Top 30. Ryan had been part of a duo with his
twin brother, Paul, who had three Top 20 hits in the mid-60’s. Barry Ryan
had a #2 hit in the UK in 1968 called “Eloise”.
After the single’s success, Geoff Turton was injured in a car crash. He
stopped performing live in concert. The accident kept him in hospital for
six months. Once out of hospital Turton recorded a follow up single as
Jefferson that his British label decided not to release. However, “Baby
Take Me In Your Arms” climbed to #23 on the Billboard Hot 100, #4 in
Toronto and #6 in Windsor, Ontario. Consequently, Jefferson did some
touring in North America. He next recorded “Love Grows Where My Rosemary
Goes”. Though it wasn’t a hit for him, it became a gold record for Edison
Lighthouse later in 1970.
Turton left Jefferson, as a stage name, behind when The Rockin’ Berries
reunited for reunion tours in the late 70’s. Geoff Turton was happy to tour
with the band on nostalgia circuits into the 1990’s. Geoff Turton has been
doing tours into his seventies. When he was 73 he was reviewed in a
performance in Telford, UK, in 2017, the reporter commented: “Turton showed
he still had it with a thoroughly respectable James Brown impression that
was startling to see from a 73-year-old Brummie white man.”

Rita Chao (凌雲, a.k.a. Ling Ying to her Mandarin-speaking fans) was a very
popular recording star from Singapore in the 1960s and 1970s, released both
Mandarin and English records in Singapore and Malaysia. She also gained
fans in Japan. Her fans still remember Rita Chao very fondly in her hip
60's A-Go-Go boots and miniskirts and also her bell-bottoms.
Rita enjoyed the accompaniment of The Quests, EMI Singapore's top band in
the 1960s, and together they recorded several hits for Rita. Her first
recording was the single “Shake, shake, shake” with “Happy, happy,
birthday” on the B-side.
When The Quests went to Hong Kong, Rita recorded with the “other” best
band, The Surfers, and continued to be popular and very successful.

Дебютный альбом аргентинского коллектива из Буэнос-Айреса. Сей ансамбль,
наряду с группами Manal и Los Gatos, включается в Большую тройку
основателей местной рок-сцены. Группа Almendra являлась первым проектом
певца и гитариста Луиса Альберто Спинетты одного из самых популярных и
влиятельных музыкантов Южной Америки. Спинетта, сочинивший 7 из 9 песен
альбома, заслужил успех у публики благодаря поэтичности своих текстов, их
сюрреалистическому характеру, своеобразной игрой с грамматикой и ударениями
в словах. В музыкальном отношении творчество группы впитало в себя влияния
The Beatles, джаза и национальной аргентинской музыки. Альбом Almendra
считается одним из главных символов аргентинской молодёжной культуры 60-х.
Сам коллектив его создателей, впрочем, долго не просуществовал музыканты
