Artist: The Beatles

Todo esto viene a colación por una película que hizo HBO, cuya interpretación del músico corre a cargo de Al Pacino, quien magistralmente encarna los momentos más difíciles del compositor. La película se estrenó el pasado 5 de mayo y va en torno a la historia del asesinato que cometió en el año 2003 hacia la actriz de películas de clase B Lana Clarkson, la cual apareció en la casa de Phil Spector muerta por un balazo en la cabeza

As you've probably heard, there's a new Lauryn Hill song . It sounds... well, it sounds like it was recorded in a hurry to pay off a tax bill, which is apparently exactly the case (unfortunately, the quickie release didn't save Hill from a three-month jail sentence ). The vocals and lyrics are decent enough, but the beat sounds like it was slapped together in GarageBand with deadlines in mind. Of course, Hill's not exactly the first artist to have to make a record under duress; here's a [...]

Bev Bevan, later a founding member of the Move and the Electric Light Orchestra, says a chance meeting with the Beatles years earlier provided a huge ego boost when Paul McCartney praised his drumming. Appearing as part of Denny Laine and the Diplomats - a largely forgotten EMI Records act that ended up seeding more famous bands like the Move, [...]

Sir Paul en vivo en Brasil.

Este hecho puso de cabeza a todos los fans de la banda inglesa, quienes seguramente brincaron de gusto al enterarse, ya que esto abre la posibilidad de que Macca estrene más canciones de [...]

As Pattie Boyd talks about old photos of George Harrison and Eric Clapton, she remains - perhaps appropriately, given that she was the inspiration for Clapton's love-lorn "Layla" - unable to decide which had been more inspirational. "I think probably George was very inspirational," Boyd says in the attached video. "He was very easy to photograph, and always looked fabulous. [...]

James Blake's sophomore effort, Overgrown BY JORDAN MAINZER It’s about 9:30 P.M. at Metro Chicago on May 4, 2013, and the crowd is stuck in some sort of limbo. Unsure whether to stand still and scratch their chins or dance, audience members look very awkward while a DJ plays minimally and lazily remixed versions of recognizable songs like Andy Stott ’s “ Numb ” and D’Angelo’s “ Untitled (How Does it Feel) ”. All is well, however, because coming on in about 30 minutes will be James Blake, an [...]

Pop Gear (in the US: Go Go Mania ) is a British music review film, directed by Frederic Goode which was released in 1965.

Greg Kihn is best known these days for 1980s-era hits like "Jeopardy" and "The Breakup Song," or perhaps for his longtime tenure as a DJ on San Jose's KUFX. But he's also been a published author since 1996, starting with "Horror Show" - which was nominated in the best first novel category of the Bram Stoker Awards. Kihn's fifth work [...]

I was hoping to have gone out to a few Hot Docs screenings by this point but unfortunately due to other things [nephew's birthday over the weekend, picking up my new 'used' car a few nights ago] I wasn't able to. I was however able to view the screener for the documentary Good Ol' Freda yesterday evening and I very much enjoyed it. Produced and directed by Ryan White , it's a scrap-book look at the fandom of The Beatles from one insider who perhaps many people [...]

As a slight teaser of his upcoming self-titled debut, U.K. artist the Child of Lov just dropped a five-track mixtape called  Crying Thunder . With a name like that, you're bound to expect big things and, thankfully, the project delivers. The title-track is on a codeine-laced psych-rock tip while his cover of the Beatles' "Helter Skelter" is equally ballsy and bonkers. It also sounds like something Beck recorded for Mellow Gold , slowed vocal effects and all. You can stream the mixtape below.  The Child of Lov drops May 6. [...]

If you haven't heard of this oddly punctuated band yet, you're either someone who doesn't listen to the radio/watch TV or you are oblivious. Fun.'s music has been featured in two super bowl commercials in the last two years... it's hard to miss these guys. Yet, the true calamity in all of this is the neglect of their first album, Aim and Ignite . Largely written as a Format project, Fun's debut is a dazzling display of progressive pop... I'm not sure it's rock. But, it's definitely progressive, so I'm calling it progressive pop (think [...]

It's the age-old question: "The Beatles or The Stones?". A lot of people like 'em both, but most everybody who's a fan of 1960s Pop-Rock music seems to have a preference for one or the other. Music Video collector Spike Priggen (of the Scopitones.com & Bedazzled.tv blogs) will present a program of musical films by The Beatles and The Rolling Stones that compare and contrast their musical, song-writing and sartorial styles, year-by-year, trend-by-trend, from "mop-tops" to psychedelia. The show will be a mix of live concert & television footage, mimed promotional clips, [...]

Baby, you're a Beatles fan: The monthly readers poll for April 2013 is dominated by Fab Four-related stuff - though, ultimately, Deep Purple's terrific new effort topped the newest Something Else! list. A concert souvenir from Ringo Starr's latest guest-packed edition of his All-Starr band charted highest among the Beatles stuff last month, as the ever-affable drummer was joined by [...]

En este "Mes Internacional de la Foto de Morro Pa'l Face" traemos lo que algunos de los más grandes rockstars habrían puesto en sus perfiles si fueran personas comunes y corrientes.

Reconozco que me encanta: uno está al final un poco aburrido de coincidir con todos esos blogs de música (de los que soy lector asiduo) y ver que andamos todos escribiendo, cada uno según le parece, sobre las mismas canciones, los mismos discos, los mismos grupos; así que encontrarte por azar con una canción tan grande a cargo de uno de esos grupos pequeños de los que nadie habla (aún) es francamente estimulante. La cosa no tiene tanto de apuesta (se me da fatal, lo reconozco) como de sentir que, aún desde un medio muy pequeño y con [...]
