catalog viniluri

Over-Nite Sensation is the seventeenth studio album by Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention. Released on September 7, 1973, it was followed by Zappa’s solo album Apostrophe (‘) (1974), which was recorded during the same sessions. This is Official Release #17

Much of the album’s lyrics deal with sex.[1][2] For example, „Dinah-Moe Humm” describes a woman who wagers that the narrator can’t give her an orgasm and is ultimately aroused by watching him have sex with her sister.

On other topics, „I’m the Slime” criticizes television, and the playful and musically adventurous „Montana” describes moving to Montana to grow dental floss.[1]

The music of Over-Nite Sensation draws from rock, jazz and pop music.[2] „Zomby Woof” has been described as a „heavy metalhybrid of Louis Jordan and Fats Waller”

Fusion of rock and roll and rhythm and blues, which they dubbed „rock and soul” Daryl Hall & John Oates ‎– No Goodbyes, Abandoned Luncheonette & Rock ‘N Soul Part 1

Publicat pe de

Daryl Hall and John Oates, known more commonly as Hall & Oates, are an American musical duo from Philadelphia.

Daryl Hall is generally the lead vocalist of the pairing, and also plays a wide range of musical instruments. John Oatesalso plays a range of instruments, but primarily plays electric guitar and provides backing vocals as well as occasional leads. The two also write most of the songs they perform, either separately or in collaboration. They achieved their greatest fame from the late 1970s to the mid-1980s with a fusion of rock and roll and rhythm and blues, which they dubbed „rock and soul”. Critics Stephen Thomas Erlewine and J. Scott McClintock write,[1] „at their best, Hall & Oates’ songs were filled with strong hooks and melodies that adhered to soul traditions without being a slave to them by incorporating elements of new wave.” While much of their reputation is due to the sustained pop-chart run in the 1980s, they continue to record and tour, and remain respected by various artists for their ability to cross stylistic boundaries.

Hall and Oates have sold an estimated 40 million records which makes them the second best-selling duo of all time.The Carpenters hold the top record with 150 million records sold.[citation needed]

They are best known for their six No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100: „Rich Girl„, „Kiss on My List„, „Private Eyes„, „I Can’t Go for That (No Can Do)„, „Maneater„, and „Out of Touch„, as well as many other songs which charted in theTop 40. In total, they had 34 chart hits on the US Billboard Hot 100, seven RIAA platinum albums, and six RIAA gold albums.[2] Because of that chart success, Billboard magazine named them the most successful duo of the rock era, surpassing The Everly Brothers.

In 2003, Hall and Oates were inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Billboard magazine had Hall & Oates at No. 15 on their list of the 100 greatest artists of all time and the No. 1 duo,[3] while VH1 placed the duo as No. 99 on their list of the 100 greatest artists of all time. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in April 2014.[4

Recording info

No precise dates and locations are given for the live recordings. The tour began in June 1976 and ended in February 1977, with 117 shows performed.

A&R man Tom Werman suggests[2] that the date at the Astor Theater in Reading, PA (31 August 1976) yielded the best performances, and was going to provide the bulk of the album at the time of his involvement in the project. Beck mixed this along with other recordings at Allen Toussaint’s studio in New Orleans.

Then Jan Hammer decided to mix the album himself, and did so with Dennis Weinreich at Scorpio Sound Studios in London, England.

The stereo spectrum of this album duplicates the stage set-up with guitar positioned center right, keyboards center left, violin right and drums and bass center.

Catalog-August
Pigbag were a British post-punk band, active from 1980 to 1983.

Although never hugely commercially successful, Pigbag had a distinctive sound that has been lauded by many critics over the years since their demise.[citation needed] Members of the band went on to record with many other bands, some still active today. Their career took place during the huge mushrooming and cross-pollination of genres that followed thepunk movement, and their music can be said to incorporate elements of punk, jazz, funk, ska, reggae and even tribal world music, such as afrobeat, all accompanied with undeniable pop sensibility. Pigbag’s influence can be heard today in the more funk-influenced percussive side of the post-punk revival, in such bands as !!! and LCD Soundsystem.

Their single „Papa’s Got a Brand New Pigbag” has entered mainstream consciousness, and is considered a classic pop hit of its era. It is removed somewhat from the rest of the band’s career, to the effect that Pigbag are sometimes considered one-hit wonders. It has been used extensively as soundtrack music and at sporting events, particularly byMiddlesbrough Football Club and Queens Park Rangers, and is still a popular dance record in clubs. In 2003, an anthem row erupted before a play-off final at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff between Cardiff and Queens Park Rangers. Eventually neither God Save the Queen or Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau were played and the clubs could choose their own song. Cardiff opted for Men of Harlech, while QPR went for Papa’s Got A Brand New Pigbag.[1]

The track has been covered by several other artists. It featured on the soundtrack of the 2006 film of Alan Bennet’s The History Boys. English group, Madness, have included a cover version of the song in their live set on occasions.[2]

In Canada, the song was used as the theme for The NewMusic, a music newsmagazine show for over 25 years, first in its original recording, then re-recorded by other artists.[citation needed]

Wonderfully fluid ensemble sound in : Steely Dan ‎– Pretzel Logic

R-512366-1356970793-8400.jpeg

Catalog-August

Pretzel Logic is the third studio album by the American rock band Steely Dan, released on February 20, 1974, by ABC Records. It was written by principal band members Walter Becker and Donald Fagen. They recorded the album at The Village Recorder in West Los Angeles with producer Gary Katz and prominent Los Angeles-based studio musicians.

The album was a commercial and critical success upon its release. Its hit single „Rikki Don’t Lose That Number” helped restore Steely Dan’s radio presence after the disappointing performance of their 1973 album Countdown to Ecstasy. Pretzel Logic was reissued in 1999 to retrospective acclaim from critics

Pretzel Logic was released by ABC Records on February 20, 1974,[14] to high sales.[9] It charted at number eight on the Billboard 200and became Steely Dan’s third gold-certified album.[15] After the disappointing performance of Countdown to Ecstasy, the album restored their radio presence with the single „Rikki Don’t Lose That Number”,[16] which became the biggest pop hit of their career and peaked at number four on the Billboard Hot 100.[17] On September 7, 1993, Pretzel Logic was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), having shipped one million copies in the United States.[14]

Pretzel Logic was praised by contemporary music critics.[9] Bud Scoppa from Rolling Stone magazine found the album’s  unprecedented in popular music and said that the ambiguous lyrics „create an emotionally charged atmosphere, and the best are quite affecting.”[5] Down Beat asserted that „there are no better rock recording groups in America, and damn few worldwide.”[6] Christgau originally gave Pretzel Logic an „A–” in his review for Cream and found it innovative: „The music can be called jazzy without implying an insult, and Donald Fagen and Walter Becker are the real world’s answer to Robert Hunter and Jerry Garcia.”[18] In a mixed review, Noel Coppage of Stereo Review was impressed by the music impressive, but said that „the lyrics baffle me; maybe they know what they’re talking about, but I can’t get a clue.”[19]

At the end of 1974, Pretzel Logic was named NME magazine’s album of the year,[20] and it was also voted the second best record of the 1974 in the Pazz & Jop, an annual poll of prominent critics published by The Village Voice.[21] Christgau, the poll’s creator, ranked it number one in his own list.[22] He gave the album an „A+” in a 1981 review, writing that it encapsulated Steely Dan’s „chewy perversity as aptly as its title”, with vocals by Fagen that „seem like the golden mean of pop ensemble singing, stripped of histrionics and displays of technique, almost … sincere, modest.”[11]

In 1994, Pretzel Logic was ranked number 67 in the All Time Top 1000 Albums by writer Colin Larkin.

Catalog 4 Mai VINILOTECA (2)

Geoffrey Arnold „Jeff” Beck (born 24 June 1944) is an English rock guitarist. He is one of the three noted guitarists to have played with The Yardbirds (the other two being Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page). Beck also formed The Jeff Beck Group and Beck, Bogert & Appice.

Much of Beck’s recorded output has been instrumental, with a focus on innovative sound, and his releases have spanned genresranging from blues rock, Hard Rock, jazz fusion, and an additional blend of guitar-rock and electronica. Although he recorded two hit albums (in 1975 and 1976) as a solo act, Beck has not established or maintained the sustained commercial success of many of his contemporaries and bandmates.[1][2] Beck appears on albums by Mick Jagger, Tina Turner, Morrissey, Jon Bon Jovi, Malcolm McLaren, Kate Bush, Roger Waters, Donovan, Stevie Wonder, Les Paul, Zucchero, Cyndi Lauper, Brian May, Stanley Clarke and ZZ Top.

He was ranked fifth in Rolling Stone‘s list of the „100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time” and the magazine, upon whose cover Beck hasappeared three times, has described him as „one of the most influential lead guitarists in rock”.[3] He is often called a „guitarist’s guitarist”.[1] Beck has earned wide critical praise and received the Grammy Award for Best Rock Instrumental Performance six times and Best Pop Instrumental Performance once. In 2014 he received the British Academy’s Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music.[4] Beck has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice: as a member of the Yardbirds (1992) and as a solo artist (2009).

By the request of Virgin, Pohjola teamed up with Mike Oldfield to record and produce his third solo album, released in 1977 in Finland as Keesojen Lehto (Grove of the Keeso) and in the UK as Mathematician’s Air Display. The album was released, in Germany (1981, album and cassette) and Italy (1987) as simply Mike & Sally Oldfield / Pekka Pohjola. The album was also released in 1981 on the Happy Bird label, in the Netherlands, under the name The Consequences of Indecisions and credited to Oldfield instead of Pohjola. Oldfield was sufficiently impressed with Pohjola, however, to ask him join him on his 1978 tour. As a result Pohjola can also be heard on Oldfield’s live album Exposed, released in 1979.
