Stand by me!

Nota de inceput: Stand by Me nu e nici piesa lui John Lennon, nici a lui Demis Roussos. Atunci, cine a cintat-o primul? Poate.. chiar cel care a scris-o - Ben E. King - impreuna cu mult mai celebrii Leiber si Stoller? Enjoy... varianta originala, plus una irezistibila, cu Muppets!?!

o piesa goffin si king!

Tocmai am auzit la X FACTOR pe Antena1 ca " (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman" este " o piesa Aretha Franklin". Ok, si Daniel Iordachioaei cinta Love Me Tender, dar asta nu-nseamna nimic... Este o compozitie Goffin & King (&Wexler), cuplul comparat in anii 60-70 in America cu Lennon/McCartney. Piesa e pe albumul-manifest al miscarii feministe, "Tapestry" (1971), al aceleiasi inegalabile Carole King. Poate sa vi se para uritica, dar ea a compus piesa. Eu o gasesc adorabila - s-o vedeti acum, la aproape 70 ani, ce bine se tine (vezi concertul in care apare cu Slash de la Guns & Roses!). Enjoy!

N-am descoperit apa calda, doar va propun cu picatura...

Pentru al cincilea album si ultimul notabil, "Daylight Again" (1982), Crosby Stills & Nash n-au beneficiat mai deloc de contributia primului, geniul trupei, aflat la... dezintoxicare. L-au scos de acolo pentru o "minora" contributie, compusa si cintata de Crosby "very high" (cum se vede si intr-un concert din aceeasi perioada), "Delta", care s-a dovedit a fi capodopera discului. Varianta propusa nu e cu CSN, ci cu... CPR, o formula ceva mai recenta a lui Crosby, cu Jeff Pevar (chitari) si James Raymond (claviaturi), ultimul fiind chiar... fiul sau, de care n-avea habar!? Enjoy!

De astazi, blogul devine strict de cultura si culturalizare muzicala. Enjoy! Astept feedback.

"Fire and Rain" was about the suicide of a fellow inmate of Taylor's at a mental institution. Taylor didn't break your heart; he understood that it was already broken, as was his own, and he offered comfort. As a result, Sweet Baby James sold millions of copies, spawned a Top Ten hit in "Fire and Rain" and launched not only Taylor's career as a pop superstar but also the entire singer/songwriter movement of the early '70s that included Joni Mitchell, Carole King, Jackson Browne, Cat Stevens, and others. A second legacy became clear two decades later, when country stars like Garth Brooks began to cite Taylor, with his use of steel guitar, references to Jesus, and rural and Western imagery on Sweet Baby James, as a major influence.
