Country (rasprava)

[JfK]

Već predugo ovdje nije spomenut the one & only Alan Jackson, pa treba taj grijeh ispraviti. Napisali su zgodnu stvar o njemu na The 9513, kaže ovako:

"Alan Jackson(...) has managed to avoid career killers. Not only has he had the audacity to be 50 years old in the Taylor Swift Era, but he’s also dared to record a covers album and a gospel album midway through a viable career instead of waiting until he got dropped from his major label record deal like you’re supposed to do. He even had an album produced by Alison Krauss in an era when country radio likes to pretend she doesn’t exist outside of Brad Paisley duets. "

Evo nešto o glazbeniku koji je, između ostalih, napisao country himnu Mamas Don't Let You Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys:

Kaj ti slušaš u zadnje vrijeme?

Na godišnjem sam cijele dane slušala ovaj album:



99 pjesama o kaubojima, revolverašima, zgodnim senoritama, plavom nebu, i žednoj zemlji, sve skupa 5 sati slušanja, nije to mala stvar. Dosta toga vuče na meksički melos, tj. možda je trećina pjesama od toga varijacija pjesme El Paso, ali ima prekrasnih obrada kaubojskih klasika Sons Of The Pioneers poput Cool Water ili Tumbling Tumbleweeds (moji favoriti).
A sve to otpjevano - treba naglastiti OTPJEVANO - glasom i stilom kojim se rijetki mogu pohvaliti....

Four CDs covering Marty Robbins' complete Western recordings, 99 songs in all from 1958 until 1979. As a concept, Under Western Skies is cohesive and enjoyable, largely because Robbins' music, regardless of the particular year in which it was recorded, is unified thematically. It's also a superb showcase for Robbins' voice, one of the most versatile in country & western — he was equally adept at rock & roll, traditional country, or Western ballads dating back 100 years or more, but he had a way of extending the latter genre's melodic beauty and lyricism without ever seeming repetitive. Thus, it wasn't just that Robbins was covering this repertory, but that he was doing it in ways that, as a solo artist of his era, were just about definitive. Disc One contains songs from Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs and parts of the follow-up record, More Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs. Disc Two is devoted to songs from Return of the Gunfighter and the rest of More Gunfighter Ballads, filled out with songs that only appeared previously in 1984 on a Bear Family vinyl release. By the mid-'60s, Robbins' voice was even better, richer and more confident on this material, and Disc Three reflects this. Disc Four extends up through 1979, and it's something of a tribute to Robbins' success with this repertory that precious little was left in the vaults for Bear Family or anyone else to unearth and issue for the first time.

Sad sam tek otkrio da se blues-rock gitarist Warren Haynes probio kad je počel svirati sa DAC-om početkom 80-ih...

Uh, Lone Star, ovo već spada u kategoriju "advanced country user"....

[13 shells]

calexico, lambchop, the willard grant conspiracy, dylan, springsteen, cowboy junkies, the be good tanyas, whiskeytown, tom petty and the heartbreakers... izbor je nepresušan ...alt country i americana je najljepša muzika na svijetu

[JfK]

Kako i kada je nastao alt country?

[13 shells]

po mom mišljenju izumili su ga lambchop

[JfK]

Da, to je dosta subjektivno pitanje.... Jedni pak misle da ga je izmislio Gram Parsons skupa s Emicom.

Nego, jel dolaziš na koncert Dalea Watsona? I on u zadnje vrijeme spada u alt country.

[13 shells]

dogovaram se s ekipom da odemo .. po meni on i spada u alt country

[JfK]

Bio alt ili old time, čim sa sobom donosi dašak te veličanstvene američke muzike zvane country, treba ga ići pogledat.

Jesi gledao Howe Gelba u Zg prije dvije godine?

[13 shells]

to nisam mogao propustiti, njegov sam fan još iz vremena kad je svirao sa convertinom i burnsom iz calexica

[13 shells]

super ti je lokacija btw - it s gonna be a long walk home

[JfK]

Yeah. Smjestila sam se u jednu od najboljih rock stvari.
Ideš na koji njegov koncert ovo ljeto?

[13 shells]

bio sam u italiji u sklopu seeger sessions turneje... ovo ljeto nemam u planu ici ... ali muči me pitanje - zašto kvragu već jednom ne dođe kod nas ili barem na područje bivše juge. Inače, s magica mi je najdraža stvar baš magic, a onda long walk home

[13 shells]

primjetio sam jednu bizarnu koincidenciju dok sam pregledavao starije postove ovdje - baš downloadam merle haggarda i onda saznam da ga smatraš najboljim tekstopiscem

[JfK]

Ma da, kaj skidaš? Što se tiče Haggarda - don't get me started
