Copy Messages From Phone To Sim

TERRY CALLIER


Sometimes it is not so easy to find a starting in the stories of musicians who tell ... is not easy to identify what may be the point from which to start the description of their formation and explain, in a certain way, why certain choices. Sometimes these problems can be due to a life story full of anecdotes and stories or an objective complexity of finding a line in the musical production. These situations are easily overcome by referring to three or four points (light, it comes to hard ... ed) and drain in the information form, then, the stories. In some cases, however, the difficulty is due to a form of emotional involvement that history, music, the artist's life tells the storyteller. In this case there is no method or route to follow to overcome the impasse.
In the case of Terry Callier's musical history - and here I confess - my emotion reaches very high levels: his music has been a faithful companion in a certain period of my life and if I'm not totally estranged from the memories, songs Occasional Rain like Satin Doll and continue to be part of me without any of you had to tie you want other stories and, in this case, I failed ...
Terry's music has a particular sound full of black jazz, soul, funk and folk, can not be assessed. The predominance of the voice, mellow and soft, soul and jazz has points and fits from the use of accompanying a folk acoustic guitar. He recalls the rhythmic funk. Jazz is in the use of time, the winds and the product is a unique sound where you can find Billie Holliday, Ella Fitzgerald, Charlie Parker, Gil Scott Heron, George Benson.
But let's order.

For 11 years, a native of Chicago, Terry became part of a group doo - woop, that was performing in the bathrooms of the school complex where the marble walls to improve acoustics allowing for a cleaner sound transmission. Then, every day, come home, he spends his time playing and playing with his best friend, Curtis Mayfield, who became one of the most important artists soul.
Music capacity of Callier could not escape Charles Stepney that the seventeen year old Terry led a hearing at the Chess Records. The result was that Terry Callier went into the recording studio on Monday morning and recorded "Look At Me Now" and the Saturday after the disk was nell'hit list of Illinois. The success was such that Leonard Chess, the boss of Chess Records, offered him a tour with Etta James and Muddy Waters to which, however, Terry did not attend because of the strong desire of the mother who forced him, at the moment, to put in a drawer dreams and to pursue graduate studies. In these years of university study Terry was able to hone his guitar technique and discard, then the basis for the refinement of his sound.

In 1964, at age 19, Callier was signed to the Prestige Records and went into the studio to record "The New Folk Sound Of Terry Callier," a debut album with a story little 'detail. To end the recording, Samuel Charters, the manufacturer of the Prestige, went on a journey to discover himself, bringing with them the tapes of "The New Folk Sound" in the desert of New Mexico where he spent two years in the "travel" propostigli from hallucinogenic mushrooms and the notes of the music of Terry. Only to return to the reality reale di Charters, l'album fu dato alle stampe e pubblicato all'insaputa di Terry Callier. Il disco fu trovato casualmente, tempo dopo, dal fratello di Terry in un negozio di dischi e libri usati.

La storia di “The New Folk Sound” iniziò a circolare negli ambienti e, nel 1971, all'età di 26 anni, Terry fu chiamato a tenere una serie di serate tra Chicago e New York, con gente del calibro di Gil Scott Heron e George Benson, e scrisse per “The Love We Had Stays In My Mind”, per la Cadet, che i Dells portarono ad un discreto successo. Grazie a questa collaborazione la Cadet gli sottopose un contratto per tre album da pubblicare nel periodo '72/'74. Born, in order, Occasional Rain, What Color Is Love and I Just Can not Help Myself, three wonderful albums that surprise to the union between the hypnotic and very warm voice of Terry and orchestral arrangements.

The three albums, however, did not have a great immediate success, indeed, the public saw them recently and apart from Ordinary Joe, single from Occasional Rain, which entered the charts and became a masterpiece in the U.S. not left its mark in sales, but did speak of the folk music critics - jazz sound of Terry Callier giving his music a more and more niche.

In 1976, Callier, at the invitation of Gil Scott Heron, Don met Mizel that made him sign a contract with Elektra for the album Fire On Ice (1977) and Turn You To Love (1978).
Fire On Ice is an album with original songs and Turn You To Love, by choice of commercial Elektra, contains two tracks taken from Occasional Rain - the title track and Ordinary Joe - to allow easier placement of the disc on the market. Success, however, came with 45 laps Sign Of Time (has nothing to do with the original song by Prince, ed) that led the artist to be more Callier programmed by Frankie Crocker on WBLS, and one of the artists most acclaimed at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1979.

Callier's career is characterized by sudden entrances and exits from the music scene. Very strange and fascinating at the same time is the consideration that his voluntary departure from the music scene have taken place at times of heightened awareness. In the 60's a breakaway from the scene soon found himself after the success of Look At Me Now and then, after the story of The New Folk Sound. The 70s seem to be aimed at achieving the success that, after 5 discs important and beautiful, it starts to get through a single in 1979 but here again the history of privacy Terry led to a profound choice: the twelve year old daughter, Sundiata, had a previous marriage, went to see him in Chicago for a summer vacation and chose to live with his father. Obviously, like any good father, Callier, realizing the profound difficulty of managing his own musical career and custody of her daughter made a choice: To ensure a steady income and a stable and peaceful life and manageable, retired from the scene and began a career as a computer teacher at the University of Chicago.

In the '90s, however, in full recovery of the sound era soul jazz funk acid jazz groove of the period, Callier was called to play in the English club from a certain Eddie Piller, in the meantime, for the Acid Jazz label, was re-released I Do not Want To See Myself (Without You) written by the Erect Callier Records in 1982, before his retirement.
In one form of tracking the success in which inverted parts, prof. Callier was attacked by reputation beyond national borders and beyond the niche audience that he had dedicated to his favorite in the 70s.
In 1995, the Prestige reissue The New Folk Sound commercial success than getting a decent lead to the emergence of a new phase of life and Art of Terry Callier. The new wave of success will bring, in fact, writing a new album, Time Peace (1998), with whom will win the prize of the United Nations "Time For Peace Arward" for artistic contribution to world peace.
consequence of the prestigious award was the forced removal from university teaching. His artistic career was not known by the college of teachers with whom he worked Callier and this was seen as a breach of contract. Terry was fired and chose, by force, this time to concentrate on artistic life involving, in some projects, including the daughter Sundiata (is the author of When A Lark Is Singing by Life In Time - 1999).

From that moment on, we find the name of Terry Callier in many excellent collaborations in projects that go beyond the black folk and jazz music. Interval I live recordings (Highly recommended, beautiful Lookin 'Out the Welcome Home 2004 and 2008, without neglecting Hidden Conversations of 2009, all for the Mr. Bongo) the influence and the voice and guitar of Terry Callier find in the work of Koop, Massive Attack, 4-Hero, Paul Weller and, above all, in a persuasive Dolphins Berth Orton.

Good music.

Where To Buy Homade Hair Bows

BEN HARPER

If for many musicians to achieve success record is given by a random path of lucky meetings or events and special situations, well this is not really the case of Benjamin Chase Harper.

The linearity of his musical training seems almost a office, a real task to keep the disclosure of that hymn to life in the modern world, which had started celebrating Bob Marley, search for a poetic and sensitive yet authoritative, visible only in the verses of Bob Dylan.

Class 1969, Ben was born in California, nell'Inland Empire, fifty miles from Claremont to Los Angeles in a very mixed family roots: his father Leonard, a percussionist, is African American and Cherokee descent, while his mother Ellen Chase-Vendries is Jewish, the daughter of Russian immigrants.

His parents separated when she was only five years and he, together the brothers Joel and Peter, spent his childhood with his maternal family, which deals with music by three generations: grandfather luthier, guitarist grandmother, mother, singer and guitarist. The family also owns a music store, the Folk Music Center and Museum, in the back of which Ben began to play the guitar for quite small. One can well understand that all family members are not just passionate but true professionals, deeply in love with their job and that will inevitably pour their passion in the young Harper, who now shows considerable ability in playing the acoustic guitar. It is at this time that his maternal grandfather makes him discover his true inclination: urging a provare quella slide guitar Weissenborn, originale degli anni ‘20, lo stesso strumento che successivamente diventerà indispensabile nelle sue creazioni musicali.

Alla sua prima esibizione pubblica, a soli dodici anni, dimostra di essere un enfant prodige, non solo per i suoi evidenti virtuosismi alle sei corde, ma soprattutto per le influenze che in un così giovane musicista vengono fuori, nota dopo nota: da Ry Cooder a Bob Dylan, da Sam Cooke a Jimmie Rodgers fino al pioniere Robert Johnson, ed ancora molti altri musicisti funk, soul, jazz e rock.

La sua musica però non si può definire semplicemente black: anche se non trascura its African American origins, his style is a real evolution, which has its roots in jazz, rap, blues, but also through the rock with its modern ramifications. The same Herper has always stressed that his songs are not only targeted at a specific audience, black or white, and it is this conviction to lead them in finding new sounds.

Consequently, he refuses to be pigeonholed in a genre and yet does not succumb to marketing, those remaining faithful to its values \u200b\u200brooted in humanity that believes in the peaceful reunification of the people.

His first production was in 1992 when it records, with his friend and folk guitarist Tom Freund, an album entitled Pleasure and Pain.

After this first experiment, and get his first real mission in 1994 with Welcome To The Cruel World, in which Harper describes an exciting musical design in our cruel world, that despite all its faults is still the our house. It does so through fine sound, but mainly through amazing texts that reveal the moral integrity of a singer with the best of Dylan, and that optimism is also present in the music of Marley.

In the next Fight For Your Mind in 1995, the youth of Claremont began increasingly to broaden his horizons, experimenting in all shades of black music. Central to the evolution of his artistic career is the formation of the band of Innocent Criminal, not just a support group, but real life companions, including the talented bassist Juan Nelson, drummer Oliver Charles and percussionist Leon Mobley .

Obviously this album in the range of sounds that Harper draws, and also expands the sound of his Weissenborn guitar begin to reach saturation distortion.

The album begins on peaceful note of Oppression, to move to the funk-blues of Ground On Down where the lap steel begins to heat up, accompanied by Juan Nelson class that holds the band in a dynamic robust. Gold To Me is a soul in which Ben sings his love for his woman, his guitar back on his knees and his voice becomes more solar Tone Bar used to obtain the typical sound slide, seems to want to reproduce those sounds hot the winds of tradition Stax and Motown.

The atmosphere is relaxed about Burn One Down, almost a folk song, Jamaican-style, soft drugs, consisting of simple acoustic guitar and percussion.

on Excuse Me Mr. the rhythm becomes almost hypnotic, the charge against industrial civilization becomes fierce, the filtered voice seems to take the form of the consciousness of modern man, selfish and materialistic.

the song By My Side soul excels the presence Hammond Ervin Pope, but in God Fearing Man Ben gave vent to his mystique class on slide guitar, and pressing in a long solo.

In his third album The Will To Live, dated 1997, Harper continued to sing his social message, but musically evolve as particular influences on blues rock Led Zeppelin, alternating intense heat and the soul of Al Green: the Mama's funkeggiante Trippin and intense Glory & Consequence are an example.

Burn To Shine, 1999, and Live From Mars, 2001, following in the footsteps of the previous album, with influences even winking at the black blues twenties Suzie Blue or cover of some high-class live in between the which the great Marvin Gaye Sexual Healing.

In 2003 he published the most complete and mature album of his career: Diamonds On The Inside. The lyrics are incisive and thoughtful, but his message is optimistic: encourage people in search of that light do shine like a diamond, the interior power.

With My Own Teo Hands, the first single, is a real tribute to Bob Marley, most sought after are the sounds in songs like When it's good, the true gospel paced energetic, or Picture Of Jesus, song in which the choirs of the fathers of African prayer mingle with the delicate shades of Harper. Perfectly balanced, also the song Blessed To Be Witness, a crescendo of instrumental delicate, with strong African roots, much more rhythmic style funk and Motown, the tracks Bring The Funk and Run Eyed Blues.

Winner of a Grammy, There Will Be A Light was born in 2004 in collaboration with the Blind Boys Of Alabama, a collective of singers non vedenti over ottanta. Il disco parte subito molto allegro sulle note di Take My Hand, in cui ben si intersecano percussioni e sonorità liquide di tastiere e chitarra wah wah; l’inversione di mood ci porta alla ballad Where Could I Go, stile Otis Redding.

Finalmente un assolo intenso di Ben con la sua chitarra in 11th Commandament, che apre la strada alla cover di Bob Dylan, Well Well Well, ottimamente reinterpretata dai protagonisti corali diretti dalla rassicurante chitarra slide di Harper.

Dopo l’emozionante gospel Mother Pray, interamente vocale, entusiasma l’ultimo brano sempre gospel ma più movimentato, a base di hammond and cheerful and insistent vocals.

The subsequent double album Both Side Of The Gun, a division intended as a simple distinction of ballads and spiritual songs in the first and sounds more aggressive in the second, is less effective previous. The first hard fact, slow and romantic, it is almost flat, other than the second disc, full of rhythmic funkeggianti as the title track features the gospel or country-folk as Gather Round The Stone. The most exciting track on this album is definitely Black Rain: a furious funk in which the arcs intersect perfectly Blaxploitation, with the explicit text referring to the black rain, because of war and suffering.

Un messaggio anti-Bush da vero rivoluzionario:

Now you don't fight for us
But expect us to die for you
You have no sympathy for us
But still I cry for you
Now you may kill the revolutionary
But the revolution you can never bury

Il terzo album con gli Innocent Criminla è del 2007, intitolato Lifeline, disco sicuramente più rilassato the previous ones, both in terms of issues addressed in music. The gospel is less powerful, rock nod to a more peaceful r'n'be also solo weissenborn in Paris Sunrise # 7, which anticipates the poetic title track, is a quiet and gentle melody.

This is Ben Harper Jack Johnson surfs on the quiet beaches of Byron Bay, really charming place, where he returned very happy and where Ben spent his evenings playing for the public is not paying for the Arts Factory Backpackers Lodge, a real artistic laboratory in which anyone may retain a memory of his musical talent. The last new partnership came in 2009 with the album White Lies Relentless7 For Dark Times, in which the sounds linger and expert on rock and funk with a heavy dose of electric guitars.

Noteworthy is the latest project, which is the formation of the trio Fistful Of Mercy, in August 2010, consists of Ben Harper, Joseph Arthur and the whimsical Dhani Harrison son of the legendary George.

In the work of Harper is very pleasant to listen to the best of traditional black skillfully blend sounds to more modern He is a masterful director and a true prodigy on guitar and slide at the same time romantic poet and narrator in describing a modern focus on waste and consumerism. The positiveness with which disseminates his message, can only stimulate the modern man to pursue that activity aimed at social education aimed at a more conscious and less materialistic lifestyle, to achieve that peace so necessary in times of strong cultural and political crisis.

in Geodynamics of the Mediterranean: The Alps and the Apennines

Faults are fractures in the crust that mostranno evidence of movement. The Trocchi undergone a tectonic stress accumulates energy until you reach the breaking point of the rock. The rock can no longer CA storage and energy that behaves in a brittle fracturing and faulting for releasing the stored energy in the form of volume waves (seismic waves). Formed in this way an earthquake. The faulting produces a relative movement of the two three major moving parts:
1) normal faults or normal
2) reverse fault

a reverse fault is called if the roof rises from the wall. In this case the area of \u200b\u200bthe crust is shortened due to a compressive tectonic stress field. The angles of the fault plane are quite bassi (attorno ai 30°). Nel caso di angoli molto bassi o nulli si parla di sovrascorrimenti.
3) Faglie trascorrenti
una faglia si dice trascorrente se il piano di faglia è verticale con spostamento orizzontale relativo delle masse rocciose. Tali faglie sono distinte in destre o sinistre; il senso è determinabile ponendosi sulla linea di faglia e osservando il senso della dislocazione del blocco roccioso che si ha di fronte.

Can You Oovoo With An Xbox

RAY CHARLES



" I was born with music inside me. That's the only explanation I know '

The story I'm about to tell is that of an artist who has made history, one of the biggest artists, the history of music has ever known. One of the pioneers of the Soul, one of those names that everyone has heard at least once. I am speaking of a Genius. Yes, because it is so che lo riconoscono tutti. Mi riferisco ovviamente a Ray Charles.

Giusto per avere idea di che personaggio sia Ray Charles, basti pensare che è stato inserito al 2° posto della classifica dei 100 migliori artisti ogni epoca dell’autorevole Rolling Stone, nel 2008, davanti a mostri sacri della musica come Marvin Gaye, Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke, Bob Dylan e John Lennon. Secondo “solo” a sua maestà Lady Soul, Aretha Franklin.

Ray Charles Robinson nasce nel 1930 ad Albany in una povera famiglia. Appena nato si trasferisce a Greenville, Florida. Abbandonato da suo padre quando era neonato, a soli 5 anni Ray assiste impotente alla morte del suo fratellino George, annegato in una tinozza piena d’acqua. Evento questo che segnerà per sempre la personalità di Ray che si sente colpevole dell’accaduto. Soffrirà per quasi tutta la vita di allucinazioni e fobie legate all’annegamento del povero George. Sempre in questi anni, il piccolo Ray inizia ad avere problemi con la vista, che lo porteranno alla cecità completa all’età di 7 anni. In realtà nemmeno lo stesso Ray conosce le cause del suo handicap. I medici allora gli diagnosticarono un glaucoma, secondo altri fu un’infezione.

Iniziò quindi a frequentare school for the blind until the death of his mother. He moved later to Jacksonville, where he performed for $ 4 at night in small clubs. Then he played for the Florida Playboys, and this time Ray started wearing dark glasses created by Billy Stickles.
It shows in Seattle, where he moved in 1947. Here his performance attracted the attention of a small record label that offers him a contract, the Downbeat / Swingtime issuing the first ever single by Ray Charles in 1949 that I Love, I Love You (I Will Never Let You Go). In the same year will come Confession Blues, How Long Blues and many more singles until 1951 when he took the first important results Baby Let Me Hold Your Hand. During this time he meets Ahmet Ertegun that makes him sign a contract to Atlantic Records. Under Board of record changes his stage name Ray Charles in order to avoid confusion with boxer Ray Robinson.

Early work with the Atlantic, such as past successes, they are good but lack that touch of originality that would make unique pieces. The musical style reminiscent of Nat "King" Cole and Charles Brown, which would have bored the public given the lack of originality and feeling "heard" that would spread.
Nel 1953 lo stesso Ahmet Ertegün, quindi, gli propone Mess Around, un brano scritto da Lui stesso. Ritmo travolgente e grande energia che fanno del brano una hit assoluta che scala le classifiche! È il primo grande successo del nostro Ray che nel 1954 supererà di gran lunga il successo di Mess Around con la spettacolare e pluricampionata I Got A Woman che spopola letteralmente in tutti gli Stati Uniti. Questo storico pezzo è stato scritto dallo stesso Ray, ispiratosi ad un pezzo dalle sonorità tipiche degli stati del Sud che spesso Ray ascoltava in radio. Ed è insieme a Renald Richard, suo trombettista che scrivono questo pezzo, sulle note di un frenetico gospel e sonorità rhytm and blues. Non mancarono le criticism from religious communities who saw desecrated their sound, typical of sacred songs. Especially since the text mentions women. Already women. One aspect of the life of Ray Charles, who greatly influenced his career and his musical choices. In his life, Ray was married only twice, but he had twelve children by seven different wives.

His story is probably the most important dating back to the most prosperous period of his career, along with Della Beatrice Howard Ray was very helpful in developing his own musical identity. Many, however, were his lovers including Margie Hendricks who was one of three Raelettes , il trio di coriste reclutate da Ray stesso per dare una seconda voce ai suoi pezzi. Scelta che si rivelò azzeccata come non mai dato che qualche anno dopo tutte le radio trasmettevano l’originalissima e per certi versi divertente What’d I Say . Intro di basso unica, quasi rivoluzionaria dato che fu uno dei primi singoli rhytm and blues ad affermarsi nelle classifiche pop ottenendo un successo spropositato. What’d I Say è al decimo posto nella classifica di Rolling Stone delle 500 canzoni più belle di sempre! Il fato volle che questo pezzo non era programmato e non era nemmeno nella testa di chi l’avrebbe suonato quella sera, probabilmente a Brownsville, Pennsylvania. Uno show terminato too soon, and that Ray was forced to improvise and make room for all his musical genius. Among the first bars we find the influence of boogie-woogie, then switch to the blues in 12 measures, a series of riffs followed by percussion, with parts of the gospel Raelettes with Ray on the following famous lines (ooohhhh, Oooohhhh, ....) or in the chorus when, as he improvised, seems to ask: "Tell Me What'd I Say" (Tell me what to say!) and then moans with sexual innuendo, in a question-and-forth between Ray and fast-paced chorus that listening to him, you will hardly stand still!
What'd I Say fu il primo brano rhytm and blues a sfondare nelle charts pop e questo segnò la diffusione del soul in un pubblico più universale. Quasi come un puzzle, la missione di the Genius si stava compiendo: aveva tastato il terreno con I Got A Woman , “ profanando il gospel ” e ora con What’d I Say aveva cambiato le carte in tavola ottenendo un disco d’oro e influenzando tutta la storia del blues, e del rock and roll.

La sua fama è ormai alle stelle e arriva il momento per i cambiamenti. Firma infatti un contratto con la ABC Records . We are in 1959. They begin the golden years for Ray dominating the charts R & B United States and abroad! These are the years of Georgia On My Mind , sounding country / blues. An ode to his country of origin, the same state that in 1961 sent him away forever, when he refused to play for an audience, to Augusta, Georgia purely racist. These are the years of racial segregation and Ray with his gesture from a blow to the rights movement of African Americans.
Also in 61, new single, new success! Hit The Road Jack , written by Percy Mayfield, on top of the charts thanks to Ray and Raelettes that " dialogue" here beautifully in this piece. In subsequent years there will be Unchain My Heart, You Do not Know Me, You Are My Sunshine, Do not Set Me Free and many other successes.

1962, released " Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music" album country as one intuits from the title that became one of the best selling of all States! With this album also entered the country music charts in the national! Ray Charles was always very fond of this genre of music having grown up in the rural south, often listening to songs like e. It was not that Ray loved country music, as the stories told, stories about love tormented, broken hearts and feeling misunderstood. In subsequent years, other works published country met with good success.
Like all geniuses, Ray Charles also had problems. I am not referring to his blindness, but heroin use, since the days of Seattle. Over the years it became more and more dominated by drugs until he was first arrested in Indianapolis, then to Boston and in serious danger of going to jail. At this point he began to detox in a clinic at St. Francis of recovery. Ray came out regenerated.
On March 7, 1979, the General Assembly of Georgia apologized to Ray Charles post-conflict civil rights and in April of that year Georgia On My Mind became the official state song.

In the 80's musical production of Ray Charles is so intense as in previous years, but unfortunately are not up to the production of the 60 and 70. To re-launch and have also appreciated by a younger audience, plays the part of Ray-old seller of musical instruments in the movie The Blues Brothers (1980), and performs in Shake Your Tailfeather. In 1985 invece partecipa al progetto USA for Africa cantando una parte importante nella We Are The World con Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie e soci.
Non vi ho parlato della discografia di Ray Charles. Ho preferito focalizzare i singoli successi anche perché la produzione discografica di Ray è davvero infinita, conta ben 62 album di cui 7 live dai quali sono stati estratti 127 singoli! Gli ultimi album di Ray da vivo sono datati 2004 e sono “ Live @ The Olimpia ”, registrato nel 2000; “ Ray Charles Celebrates a Gospel Christmas With the Voices of Jubilation”, Christmas album and "Genius Loves Company" album featuring with major artists such as Elton John, Norah Jones, Diana Krall, BB King, and many others that brings Ray topped the charts, much to win as many as 8 on grammy 10 nominations, including album of the year! " Genius Loves Company" was released August 31, 2004, two months after the death of our genius. In fact, Ray died June 10 at his home in Beverly Hills, surrounded by his family and his closest friends. To kill him with liver cancer. He was 73 years.

October of that year came "Ray" biopic about the life of Ray Charles, very introspective and deep. The spectacular and perfect interpretation of Jamie Foxx in the role of Ray Charles won him the Oscar for Best Actor. A must see!

Very few artists can boast a production similar to that of Ray Charles, not so much the number of albums, but the milestones that we got from the late 50 and the mid-70s. A unique voice, warm and passionate. Unmistakable. His movements and his way of playing the piano like no another made it an icon, one of the greatest ever exponents of soul music and beyond. Ray was a model and inspiration for many young musicians who have followed the winds of innovation brought by the same Ray giving us a priceless musical heritage that deserves to be handed down to all generations.

Blood Clots Before Period

GRANT GREEN


addition perfection based sublimation.

There, where it seems impossible to reach, beyond the garden, where dreams take shape and the mind lets go to a state of another perception. Do just one tool, make it part of himself and at the same time, make the extension of his soul and messenger of the true feelings so deep, it operates from more worthy of shamans. And just as inspired by the highest deity, Grant Green has achieved the unique the sound of guitar in jazz and his music to higher levels unobtainable.

"I do not play much guitar players, only wind instruments. I used to stay overnight at the only copy of Charlie Parker note for note " . Bebop of Charlie Parker, Davis to the use of pauses, phrasing never pushed to the limit, if anything, seasoned by rhythmic movements that are syncopated sound that derives from their ancestral tribute to the sounds of West Africa: this and much more, and Grant Green .

At home in any musical capacity, master essential in 60 quartets in jazz alongside drums, sax and organ, Hammond is with Larry Young, who is the greatest feeling, creating a modern jazz sound fruit perfect alchemy of two souls high.

Among the few guitarists able to receive, edit and reproduce the sound of Blue Note, the great family who welcomed him and made real the dream of seeing him perform and record monsters next to the likes of Herbie Hancock, Lee Morgan and Hank Mobley, found fertile ground everywhere, sowing and reaping creative wonder.

had become inadequate witness of works of art of others, honoring various artists first of all James Brown with his "Is not it funky now?" mentor emerging guitarists (we are in the mid-sixties, and George Benson has yet to warn the world of your elegant style) that he saw the hope of great tool to make your own kind of music in a demanding and selective, arrived with his art, to bear witness to that new musical movement that was the blaxploitation-film, signing the first soundtrack for the movie Blue Note " The Final Comedown "(1972), where the music becomes a character, and the viewer is dragged into the swirling story of this man in any place whatever."

From some considered the "Father of Acid Jazz", released by the league as world-renowned artists (A Tribe Called Quest and Public Enemy to name a few), Grant Green is an innovator in his own way and its kind, which still has voice in the immense musical legacy that we can enjoy the wealth that he wanted to give us after having started in 1979 - at the age of 44 years - the last, long journey to eternal bliss .

Salmon Patties Mashed Potatoes No Eggs

MADLIB



Provo today to write an article on one of the producers and mc-even if the adjective is really suitable for him " musician-instrumentalist also being more productive in recent times.
back or to talk about his entire discography, including the drive in which he might have just participated, would create significant problems of space and time. I am in fact talking about its skills, as well as some aspects of his life that led him to be what it is, of his most important, that have enshrined as one of the most creative geniuses that hip hop has had in its history.
We are talking about Otis Jackson Jr. aka Madlib.

Born in 1973 in Oxnard (California), we can define real family tradition. His father, Otis Jackson Sir., Was a decent soul singer 70s, of which we remember the success with the song Message to the ghetto , mother, Sinesca Faddis was a jazz singer.
Not only that, his uncle Jon Faddis, mother's brother, is a historic jazz trumpeter.
In short, the raw material to our little Otis Jr. did not fail. There was born in the middle of the music. As his younger brother Michael, who followed in his footsteps to become the one who is now called by the name of "Oh No The Disrupt".

When Madlib and his brother are still very young his father retired from the scene, trying to devote his time to his family, but decides not to leave out the music delighting in his study. It is in that room that her children grow and have fun. With music. Among musical instruments and sound studio.

In the years that his brother Madlib is approaching the world of rap, and especially him, Otis Jr., started working as a producer with the likes of the Alkaholiks and Cali Agents.
then form a group called Lootpack, along with his friend MC Wildchild and DJ Romes.
Lootpack I work in a lot of material that will not come out officially (but which will then be brought to light in 2004 with "The Lost Tapes") before posting to the Stones Throw which is the label which will bind Madlib, a couple of mix The Anthem and Whenimondamic between 1998 and 1999, and the next album of onset "Soundpieces: Da Antidote", again in 1999. An absolute masterpiece that includes among others the participation of people like Defari, Dilated Peoples, Alkaholiks, and the same brother Oh No.
It is in this record that makes his first appearance of a character with a rather unusual item . A mc called Quasimoto. It is nothing but the Madlib who "invented" this his kind of alter-ego, and is just the beginning of a drawing of pseudonyms that will bear his artistic career.
Quasimoto But the adventure does not stop there, so why Madlib decided to give him his own artistic life and a series of works beginning with the publication of some mix including Microphone Mathemtics and Come On Feet published in 1999 and 2000, again for the Stones Throw Records and will be contained in the album "The Unseen". Another masterpiece.
2 / 1 From these projects, "Soundpieces" of Lootpack and "The Unseen" under the pseudonym Quasimoto, you begin to see the unique approach that Madlib has with the production. Sudden changes of loops, maximum research and attention devoted to percussion, samples derived from pure jazz with some sprinkling of funk that never hurts, all seasoned with the dirt that only the old, smoky jazz can deliver, with the 'Addition of small clicks that offer only the vinyl. Yes, because Madlib as well as being all that is is a big fan and collector of vinyl records mostly jazz, but also funk and beyond.
We can say that diggin 'is one of his favorite sports.

In 2000 Madlib gives birth to a new project that mixes jazz, hip hop and electronica under the name of Yesterdays New Quintet. Compound, as its name says 5 elements: the same convenience and Madlib Malik Flavors, Monk Hughes, Ahmad Miller and Joe McDuphrey. Why fake? Simple ... why do not exist. Nth are pseudonyms used by the same Madlib! The works are in fact entirely composed by him and the fictional debut of the quintet arrive in 2001 with the album "Angles Without Edges" and continues in 2004 with "Stevie" which revisits the hits of the legendary Stevie Wonder, not talk about the solo projects of fictitious members of the quintet (and therefore the same Madlib), and the collection of new material published in 2007 in "Yesterday Universe: Prepare For A New Yesterday (Volume One)." A real treasure trove.

another pseudonym used by Madlib Beat Konducta is to publish several volumes in the years which consist mainly of material instrumental hip hop theme (Africa, India ...) in his unique style and unattainable.

All this without neglecting 2 pearls, both shared with 2 other monsters sacred, that I can not mention: in 2003 he published together with the great producer J-Dilla in Detroit (or Jay Dee, RIP), again for the Stones Throw, the album "Champion Sound" under the name Jaylib, while in 2004 , in collaboration with the great rapper MFDoom, one of the finest rap discs in recent years: "Madvillainy" under the name Madvillain.
Two absolute masterpieces that deserve to be in the collections of all rap really passionate about the world.

in 2003 comes to Madlib unique opportunity to get in the face of criticism of the great enthusiasts of jazz pubblicando per la Blue Note un disco che rivisitasse i grandi successi dell'etichetta jazz più famosa e storica del mondo.
Arriva così "Shades Of Blue" che vede il nostro beniamino cimentarsi in versioni remix di brani dei celebri Donald Byrd, Bobbi Humphrey e Horace Silver tanto per citarne alcuni. Il tutto contornato dal bellissimo video girato per il brano Slim's Return che consiglio a tutti di visionare e che inserirò alla fine di questo articolo.

La discografia di Madlib di certo non finisce qui. Pubblica The second chapter in 2005 under the pseudonym Quasimoto "The Adventures Of Lord Quas Furter," Madvillain remix disc, not to mention the Medicine Show and various collaborations with artists such as Talib Kweli, De La Soul, Prince Po, Erykah Badu , Mos Def and many, very many others ...
So, as said earlier, speaking of the entire discography of Madlib would write a book.
But I am equally sure that given the productivity of this monster of music, the title of the hypothetical book would be "The Neverending Story", with the certainty that, in addition to the important elements of hip hop that I mentioned in this article, there were more targati INVAZION Madlib!

Dj Danko.
