skonopa Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 does anyone remember the origin of this thread??? Leave it to old Sputnik to take us off the beaten path (again)..ROFL! I don't know. I'll just roll into town with my gatlin gun and lay waste to the whole damn place! That'll fix'em! Anyway, my pick, and something a bit different. Every wonder what happens when you mix up a string quartet with a heavy metal band? Well, the result is something like Apocalyptica! Definitly a different sound than what I am even used to. Pretty cool, though. I have thier self-titled album - Apocalyptica. The third track - "Bittersweet" is pretty slow, almost sorrowful song. Love how it builds up. The second track, "Quutamo" is a faster song with some interesting guitar riffs thrown in. No denying these guys have a unique sound.

theryugobuddy Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 That is one hell of a pick. Big Ginger Baker fan here! Greg Ginger Baker stratavarious kinda world music/classic rock Ginger's got quite the following very interesting site http://www.ginger-baker.com/ Greg you got any other must have GB I'll pick it up on friday...Thanks I love Ginger Baker's "Going Back Home" --just a trio with my fave jazz bass player and one of my fave jazz guitar players---Charlie Haden and Bill Frisell-- GB plays his jazz with a classic rock drumming style-- this is no smooth jazzzzzz-- Review by Daniel Gioffre Give Ginger Baker this: He sure knows how to choose his sidemen. In fact, there is a certain pleasant symmetry to his recording career between the mid-'60s and the mid-'90s. It is a career bookended by power trios, first with his partnership with fellow virtuosos Eric Clapton and Jack Bruce in Cream, and then, almost 30 years later and well after most would have written him off as a relic from a bygone era, this trio with Charlie Haden and Bill Frisell. More surprising even than this unlikely partnership is the fact that the album actually works. Most memorable are the Baker-penned compositions, which sport melodies that seem to have more in common with British or Arabic folk music than bebop. As a jazz drummer, Baker is surprisingly convincing on most of the material. The timbre of his drums, unusual for a jazz album, adds a pleasing earthiness to the proceedings, and intersects well with Haden's rich bass. Everything Frisell touches turns to gold, and this album is no exception. Here he is at his quirky, impressionistic best, tossing off Monk quotations as effortlessly as he sculpts darkly ambient textures. Despite these fine achievements, Going Back Home is not perfect. On some of the material, Baker's heavy rock hand shows a bit too much, as on "Straight, No Chaser." The results are charming in their own way, but one wishes that Baker could ease up on the "Sunshine of Your Love" tom-tom fills once in a while. Also, the closer, "East Timor," features an annoying voiceover by Baker that ends the record on an off note. However, the "rockisms" work more often than they don't, and even when they don't, the groove never suffers, and the trio members always sound like they're having fun. By turns hauntingly melancholy and fearlessly experimental, this record is sure to please Frisell and Haden fans, and likely to pleasantly surprise those who enjoy Baker's work with Cream. .....and I like the "East Timor" song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_L Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Here's one in the spirit of the week. Album, CD, New York Rock & Soul Review: Donald Fagen and assorted cast. Hosted by Donald Fagen, this one night Rock & Soul review live at The Beacon in NYC. Great stuff. Phoebe Snow, Donald Fagan, Charles Brown, Michael McDonald, and Eddie and David Brigati (the Rascals) saw to that. While some performances come off as perfunctory and there's nothing you could label outstanding, the soul is real and heartfelt. Top performances come from Brown (the oldest person in the show), Snow and McDonald, Boz Scaggs ("Drowning in the Sea of Love"), and Fagen (a jazzy "Madison Time," which he performs accompanied by Jeff & the Youngsters in a full-blown reprise that closes the concert).

I had the LP 20 years ago in college, and hardly remember it--it had a few great songs and some filler, but a nice pop/jazz fusion sound to it-- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
