Need your fix of the Seventies? Soft rockers Ambrosia playing Tin Angel on Sunday, July 31st

Ambrosia - Biggest Part Of Me Live
The original members of Seventies soft rockers Ambrosia are performing this Sunday night, July 31st at Tin Angel . The band's hits are staples of the soft rock era including "Holdin' On To Yesterday," "How Much I Feel," "Biggest Part of Me" and "You're the Only Woman (You & I)." Any one of the band's songs is required for a soft rock mix tape compilation, if that sort of thing moves you. Below, watch a couple of their classics.

June 5, 1982

June 5, 1982 As part of a semi-recurring series , I thought that I'd pull up the Billboard Hot 100 for this corresponding week from a year in the early '80s and note the songs that were debuts. I'm opting with 1982 again as it was the year during which I listened to more Top 40 radio than I ever would again. (there are also a lot of missing issues during the Junes of the first half of the '80s in Google's online archive of Billboard magazine , but '82 is there) [...]

Here are tonight's notable performers: The Tonight Show With Jay Leno (NBC): Donny & Marie Osmond The brother-and-sister duo makes a musical comeback tonight, performing in support of its first studio album in 30 years.

Hardly Just One Story

Hardly Just One Story It's pretty safe to say that this is going to be an explosive year for progressive house, given the wide variety of mutations that the genre is undergoing lately. Ranging from breaks to dubstep, progressive sounds are being thrown in a blender with other genres to produce unique new audio experiences. Affective & Sensorica (pictured) are a pair of Russian producers exploring this new frontier, and their contributions via a new album called One Story show that they've saddled up for some serious experimentation. Sampling techno, tech house, breaks, progressive, and even some dubstep sounds, their new album [...]

VAST VISION – Ambrosia [Future Sound Of Egypt]

VAST VISION – Ambrosia [Future Sound Of Egypt] Containing more backbone and longevity than Katie Price's (aka Jordan) last TWO pathetic marriages, 'Ambrosia' by Vast "always kickin" Vision, slams another lid down on EDM music as we know n' love it for more Heaven-sent action. Showing off their remixes this time around are no other than Arctic Moon, Estiva and Kent & Gian who get my hands rising for the skies once more. Arctic Moon turn another page of their trance Bible, in which it falls apart with a laid bookmark in the middle named "St Pauls Cathedral," and goes all-out for some hammer [...]

Susie Ibarra & Assif Tsahar - Ambrosia

Susie Ibarra and Assif Tsahar are a husband and wife duo, and this comes from their 1998 avant-jazz album Home Cookin' . Ibarra is an unusual and distinctive drummer. At times she seems more occupied with shape and space than with rhythm. Tempo becomes a textural consideration. On Ambrosia , Tsahar plays some endearingly woozy tenor sax. I love the way they're both playing about with time here, but each in a different way. Susie Ibarra & Assif Tsahar - Ambrosia [...]

Danny O'Keefe – So Long, Harry Truman

Danny O'Keefe – So Long, Harry Truman The Wiki on Danny O'Keefe is that he was born in Spokane, cut his teeth in the clubs of Minnesota, got on Atlantic by singing to Ahmet Ertegun over the phone, cut a half dozen albums (and a Top 10 single) in the mid-seventies and then retired to The Home For Folk Singers Who Were On Atlantic In the Seventies (10:00AM: go for walk in country; 12:00PM: nap; 2:00PM: start own record label; 6:00PM: do environmental activist's concert). This album, the last he recorded for Atlantic in [...]

Saturday night captains

Saturday night captains I went to see a screening of the Yacht Rock web series at the Bell House on Saturday. I am not ashamed to admit that I remain oddly and totally into the stuff that gets collected under that inspired moniker (misleading as it often is). So it was cool that Ambrosia was also on the bill, celebrating their 40th anniversary, though a quick look at their discography suggests that they've been laying low for about the last 25 of them. Hipsters were out in abundance, dressed in floral Caribbean shirts and captain hats. But about [...]

Any Major Beatles Covers: 1967-68

The second mix of Beatles covers comprises songs from the group's 1967-68 period, ending rather abruptly in the middle of the White Album selection. So the third mix will carry on with songs from that double album (leading with the Beach Boys doing Back In The USSR). There are some quite unexpected covers. Ella Fitzgerald singing Savoy Truffle? Soul group The Moments singing Rocky Racoon, of all songs? Some performers are also surprising. Bill Cosby, for example. The stand-up comic did an album of covers in 1969, including Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It's not mugging for [...]

Being in love again – Part 1

Being in love again – Part 1 Yeah, I know, Valentine's Day is commercial and naff. All kinds of idiots will play Every Breath You Take or You're Beautiful or similar inappropriate to complement the overpriced roses. There is nothing wrong, of course, with letting music doing your talking, but nothing declares love as sloppily as a badly chosen song. To be clear, Perfect Day and fucking With Or Without You are about love, but not in a romantic sense. Here is the first part of a few songs which, I think, do a good job of expressing romantic love, or talking about being in requited love. [...]

ATJF Jukebox: Julianna Barwick

ATJF Jukebox: Julianna Barwick photo by Devon Banks Julianna Barwick is also gracing our ATJ Fest stage this Sunday evening. Her supremely serene music, made almost entirely of vocal layers, looped and stretched into infinity. By the time their build is finished, the sound is something akin to ambient devotional music. It's a novel sound, that's intensely comforting nonetheless. It's recently been soothing the Pitchfork boys through some hectic "decade-in-music" narrative construction. Below, Julianna lays down some of her favorite songs, and what they might portend for the future of [...]

Biggest Part Of Me, Ambrosia

The members of the soft rock band Ambrosia all remain active to this day as session musicians, producers, and in other facets of the music industry. For a period in the late '70s and early '80s, they managed to place several songs onto the single charts in the US. One of the biggest of those hits arrived in the spring of 1980 with the release of their album One Eighty . The album saw Ambrosia drifting further from the more progressive rock sound of their early albums and embracing the soft rock and pop that had already [...]

Home Improvement: Tim Installs a high power exhaust fan
"You know if you see some DJ dancing ... he's dancing? Not a DJ. He's a guy with a fast Internet connection." -- Tom, preferring the throwback stylings of sore-backed DJ Ted Shred to the laptop chowderheads "He's got that friendly, super-warm, Everyman quality. He doesn't seem like a bullying blowhard at all." -- Tom on endearing Presidential hopeful Fred Thomspon "Is that the one on the horse or in the pool?" -- Tom, asking Mark in Toronto about his country's beloved lacrosse "If you're a giant robot, [...]
