Rock On! Wednesday, 15 November 2023 – Moondog, The Residents, Frank Zappa, John Cale, The Velvet Underground & Henry Cow

Psychedelic, heavy, prog and more innovating sounds spanning the late 60s and the early 70s –  Wednesday August 15th.  Dan’s pick of the week: Moondog (Moondog), The Residents (Meet The Residents), Frank Zappa (Hot Rats), John Cale (Paris 1919), The Velvet Underground (The Velvet Underground & Nico) & Henry Cow (In Praise of Learning).

Moondog was de artiestennaam van Louis T. Hardin, een Amerikaans componist, musicus en dichter. Behalve nieuwe muziek vond hij ook nieuwe instrumenten uit, hoewel hij blind was.
Sputnik Music review: “For 30 years, many simply considered Louis Thomas Hardin, Jr. to be one of the more eccentric vagrants that line Manhattan’s walkways. Few New Yorkers knew that when they flipped their spare change to the spear-toting, horn-capped, wispy-bearded “Viking of Sixth Avenue” they were giving to a man who had transcended insurmountable conditions, acquired blindness and homelessness, to become one of the 20th century’s most gifted and under-recognized musicians.

Rock On! Wednesday 18 October 2023 – Jethro Tull, U.K., Caravan, Focus & Steve Hackett

Psychedelic, heavy, prog and more innovating sounds spanning the late 60s and the early 70s –  Wednesday August 12th.  Dan’s pick of the week: Jethro Tull (Songs From the Wood), The Moody Blues U.K. (Night After Night: U.K. Live!), Caravan (If I Could Do It All Over Again, I’d Do It All Over You), Focus (Moving Waves) & Steve Hackett (Voyage of the Acolyte).

Jethro Tull kennen we als een Britse progressieve rockband uit Luton, een stad boven Londen gelegen. De band werd opgericht in 1967 rond de Schotse voorman Ian Anderson. Hun muziek is herkenbaar aan de opmerkelijke zangstijl en het unieke dwarsfluitwerk van Anderson, aan de ongewone en vaak complexe liedconstructies en aan de intelligente teksten.

Math Lemmen van Prog Wereld: “Naast de Keltische invloeden was dit ook het eerste album waarop David Palmer als officieel bandlid opdraaft.
