BACKGROUND + MEER INFORMATIE

40 YEARS OF “STONY PLAIN”

2016 marks the 40th Anniversary of one of Canada’s longest surviving independent record labels. Stony Plain Records has been recognized worldwide for its consistent, high quality roots and blues releases. “40 Years of Stony Plain” is a  three volume set celebrating  some of the label’s favourite tracks. The first cd features singer-songwriters and country-roots artists, the second focuses on blues and the third disc is just rarities and previously unreleased music by artists like Eric Bibb, Maria Muldaur, Duke Robillard and Sam Chatmon. Stony Plain was named “2014 Record Label of the Year” by the Blues Foundation in Memphis. www.stonyplainrecords.com

JEFF BECK: LOUD HAILER

Jeff Beck’s  first new album in six years: “Loud Hailer – named after another word for a megaphone – the record contains 11 tracks that span funk, electronic music, soul and the blues and an emphasis on vocal songs. “If I don’t change course now, I’ll be stuck with that ‘Guitar World thing,'” six-string legend explains from Jimi Hendrix’s studio. “If I don’t change course now, I’ll be stuck with that ‘Guitar World thing,'” six-string legend explains from Jimi Hendrix’s studio. “I really wanted to make a statement about some of the nasty things I see going on in the world today,” Beck said in a statement. “I loved the idea of being at a rally and using this loud device to shout my point of view.” (…)  At the listening event earlier this year, Rolling Stone asked if he intended the LP to be a protest album. “It’s an observation,” he said. “It’s undeniable when [Rosie] sings, ‘plastic fantastic little creatures,’ it’s complaining about the plasticity of reality shows like American Idol and all this, where 99.5 percent of it is just crap and you should never be exposed to it, just to get that little morsel of talent,” he said. “That, to me, is just the worst, so that’s my little poke at that.” (Source: Rolling Stone magazine)

WE THE PEOPLE aka AMERICAN ZOO  

We the People aka American Zoo is a 60s teen band from LA (do not confuse with We the People from Orlando), that released four singles and recorded another demo. Surprisingly, these kids write their own material and produced interesting, introspective lyrics as well  (e.g. ‘Who Am I’, re-recorded as ‘What Am I’). Their music is a blend of rough beat (now called ‘garage’), folk and psychedelic elements, with vocal harmonies on top.

Says Mike Stax of Ugly Things: “The album clocks in at less than 30 minutes, but when every one of those minutes is pure magic, how could you possibly complain? We have a new contender for album of the year”
Their records didn’t go anywhere, buts some  band members (who were still attending high school when they made these recordings!) developed impressive careers: guitar player Bill Bottrell became a Grammy award producer, working with Michael Jackson, Madonna and George Harrison among others. Drummer Jason “Jasun” Martz toured with Frank Zappa and recorded with Michael Jackson. Today, he’s a well- known avant-garde artist and sculptor. Steve Zaillian, the first We The People drummer, became an Academy Award winning director, producer and screenwriter (“Schindler’s List” and “Hannibal” among others).

The band’s entire output can be found on the cd “Visions of Time” www.guerssen.com (EB)

ALLIGATOR 45th ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION (2016)

Two cds for the price of one, 37 tracks by 37 artists / bands totaling more than two and a half hours of music – celebrating Alligator’s 45th anniversary and thus Alligator’s sound. It is only normal that many a band / artist couldn’t be included, the label now possessing a catalogue of more than 300 albums. As Alligator have released anniversary albums fairly regularly, this one focuses rather heavily on albums released this century, with many released the last few years.  (Eddy Bonte)

“On May 25 and June 2, 1971, the rawest, roughest-edged, most joyful blues band in Chicago recorded their first album. With the help of two fledgling producers, Bruce Iglauer and his friend Wesley Race, they cut multiple takes of twenty-five songs in two evenings, recorded live and mixed as they were being recorded. The album, issued in August of that year, was simply named after the band: Hound Dog Taylor And The HouseRockers, the first release from a brand new label called Alligator Records. Alligator was a leap of faith, an underfinanced one-man operation run out of an efficiency apartment.  (…)
Forty-five years later, Alligator Records, now with a catalog of almost three hundred albums, continues to be bound by the same philosophy that led to that first recording—that direct, unvarnished, straight-from-the-soul blues and blues-rooted music, the music we call “Genuine Houserockin’ Music,” speaks to some primal, necessary place in people’s consciousness. We believe that our music, if delivered by charismatic, soul-stirring artists, and if publicized, promoted and marketed with unwavering energy, will find a worldwide audience, stand the test of time, and keep the label moving forward for years to come”.
Thanks, Alligator Records!
