Song Swarm: Light My Fire

Dec 29, 2010, 5:32pm Any Major Dude With Half A Heart
Song Swarm: Light My Fire The story goes that Jim Morrison hated Light My Fire, The Doors’ great breakthrough hit. Recorded in August 1966, it was released in January 1967, at the dawn of the so-called Summer of Love. If it was true that Morrison disliked it, I’d sort of concur with his judgment. In fact, he didn’t hate the song, but resented that he had only a small part in writing his band’s signature hit (most of it was written by guitarist Robby Krieger). I don’t like The Doors much, and have more respect than affection for their version of Light My [...]

Covers: The Rolling Stones – “(I Can`t Get No) Satisfaction”

Aug 17, 2010, 10:31am Cuchara Sónica
Covers: The Rolling Stones – “(I Can`t Get No) Satisfaction” Considerada por muchos como una de las bandas más cool del planeta, los Rolling Stones surgieron a principios de los 60 con un sonido sucio mezcla de rock, blues y R&B; y no han dejado de producir hits desde entonces, aunque tal vez nada a la altura de "(I can´t Get No)Satisfaction" , canción que sin duda podemos considerar como su más grande éxito. El tema y la frase principal nacieron de la cabeza de Keith Richards cuando este estaba durmiendo en un hotel. La leyenda cuenta que [...]

Any Major Beatles Covers: 1967-68

Apr 16, 2010, 12:22am Any Major Dude With Half A Heart
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 [...]

23 Stops to Phoenix

Mar 29, 2010, 6:02pm Any Major Dude With Half A Heart
By The Time I Get To Phoenix is not even my favourite Jimmy Webb song, much as I love it, but I cannot think of many other songs in pop music that traverse interpretations and genres as effortlessly as this. Here I am offering a bunch of versions that cover pop, country, soul, jazz and easy listening. By The Time I Get To Phoenix sounds like it belongs in any of these genres. And even when interpreted by artists from the same genre, it is an immensely flexible a song. Just compare the versions by the Four Tops, [...]

A look at blindness (apologies for the cruel pun)

Jul 18, 2008, 2:34pm Repeat, repeat
A look at blindness (apologies for the cruel pun) Whilst flicking through the latest additions to my record collection, I came across several albums by "Blind Willie McTell." The trouble was, they were all compilations, which is of course a disgrace - who needs compilations? After a short amount of Wikipedia-ing, I found that in fact he has no official albums, which isn't really giving me a high opinion of Willie. Innuendo? The whole blind musician thing is rather interesting - there are plenty of visually impared musicians out there that do a fantabulistic [...]

Feliciano!

Jun 18, 2008, 1:14pm Repeat, repeat
Feliciano! I actually got José's album Feliciano! in a lot off eBay. As there were about 100 records in this lot, it took me a while to get round to listening to it. But it was definitely worth the wait. José Feliciano is a seriously good guitarist. He has a way of making his playing sound easy, so easy in fact that I picked up my guitar and attempted to play along. Inevitably, I failed. But what makes José so amazing is that he's blind, and has been since birth. Yet, he still plays the guitar fantastically, which just [...]
