Ex-Uriah Heepster David Byron and his shortlived outfit with ex-Humble Piester Dave Clempson seem like an odd choice here, but I always thought this to be a credible take at a blues which mostly follows 12 bar tradition plus two additional chords.

Too late, Uwe already sent it over the cliff with DP.

Arena rock is not classic blues.


Uwe's quick rebuttal:

May I disagree? Some black blues giant once said about Blackmore: "I've never heard any white cat play the blues like the guy from Deep Purple does." And When a Blind Man Cries (for anybody caring to give it a listen) is NOT arena rock, not even a power ballad. It is firmly entrenched in the blues and very sparsely arranged. And for all the sins of Whitesnake and David Coverdale, the man sure could sing the blues too:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBQbysY3jTU

You guys' concept of what is allowed to be blues or not is about as flexible as the Indian caste system.

Nofi, you have been the king of this thread ;D. I love all the old school stuff and I had completely forgotten about Blue Cheer.
All I could remember about them was the ear bleeding volume that they played at. They actually did some pretty good stuff.
They were without a doubt the loudest band I ever heard. They made the Who sound like a coffee house gig.

Thanks for this piece. I was not  familiar with this period of Dion at all.
Bobby Darin did a thing in the late 60s too. He traded in his tuxedo for a Levi jacket and got down and dirty for an album. I remember there was a cut or two that were pretty good.

I used to see this pair on State St. when I worked in Chicago.  He played guitar, drums and harp.  She covered the bass and sang.  Sad ending to this story.  I learned that they moved to San Francisco in the '90s, and he ended up murdering her.  I got to jam with him once, when she was away from him.

Nofi,
Thanks for the Frigid Pink stuff. That's my old buddies ;D. I caught the new Frigid Pink last winter. I bumped in to the drummer when I was at the doctors office and found out they were reformed with Rick the drummer as the only original member. When that album was cut, both he and the bass player were still in high school.

Not only did he hang around that long, he was still touring fairly regularly.

His NYT obit (http://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/25/arts/music/25lockwood.html?_r=1&oref=slogin) says he was still doing a weekly gig in Cleveland until about 3 weeks before he died. He was 91.

Post by: nofi on January 10, 2011, 03:21:40 PM
a little list of some of led zep's 'stolen originals'.

babe i'm gonna leave you- written by anne bredon in late 50's.

since i've been loving you- lyrics taken from moby grape song "never".

moby dick- main guitar riff taken from 1961 bobby parker tune "watch your step".

you shook me- willie dixon.

dazed and confused- folk tune written by jake holmes.

in my time of dyin'- trad folk tune, blind willie johnson.

lemon song- based heavily on howlin wolf's "killing floor".

bring it on home- willie dixon.

whole lotta love- willie dixon lyrics from "you need love".

nobodys fault but mine- blind willie johnson.

when the levee breaks- memphis minnie.

you can argue inspiration or plagerism. to their credit zep did give cedit to the original authors of dyer maker. not much in the grand scheme of things, though.

May I come up to the artistic defense of my beloved Led Zep?  :mrgreen:

The fact that Zep stole blues riffs without proper credit is well-established and proof galore. But I never saw them as the second coming of The Beatles. Zep's importance as an influence is not in their songwritng, it's in their sound and the folk- and world music influences they added to American blues. They took those American old bluesers' songs and turned them into a new art form with their esoteric, yet larger than life presentation of them. The sound they forged was lightyears away from the originals, much farther away from the originals than say Bluesbreakers, Yardbirds, Cream, Fleetwood Mac, Ten Years After, Canned Heat, Savoy Brown, Foghat etc. Zep were hugely influenced by the blues, but not overawed by it. The bluesiest non-blues band on earth. They took the blues somewhere else, sonically and culturally. For that they deserve credit and it is their lasting legacy.

The sour note is that - probably at the instigation of their prince of darkness svengali Peter Grant -they attempted to withhold deserved royalties from people who had a fraction of the wealth (and fortune in life) of these four young white multi-millionaires. That was a real cheap shot.

But they didn't just steal from black guys.

Post by: nofi on January 11, 2011, 08:24:39 AM
interesting thoughts but the facts, if not the songs remain the same. all they had to do is give credit where credit is due. i don't think they would really miss the loss of royalties. on the otherhand they did 'customize' sixteen or so songs...
Title: Re: Good Ol' Classic Blues Songs
Post by: uwe on January 11, 2011, 11:19:11 AM
I came to their artistic defense, not their morals which might have been indeed questionable! There is of course that lingering bad taste that in the late sixties/early seventies swiping a song from a black blueser from the South with no huge record company in his back was not quite as risky as if you had done the same to, say, Bob Dylan or Elvis Presley (the Colonel would have set you right!). I can't exclude that that might have played a role in the decision to ignore their intellectual property along the cynical lines of "these guys will never get their act together to do something against us, look how they always have the worst contracts, and if they do we can feed them a morsel then". Black blues artists just didn't have the commercial (and therefore also legal) clout of their soul contemporaries with Motown and Stax.

I posted the reference to Spirit and that zep tune and also this bit they borrowed for the rest of the melody...

It's actually not credited on the tune but it's the second part that comes in around 3:10 - the song is called "Promises" and was released in this form on a live album in 1970...

"That's because he hadn't heard it until his daughter pointed it out."

That to me sounds like a legal argument construed to avoid having to answer why he sued so late. Frankly, I rule out that you could have lived in America from 1968 to 1985 and not have heard Whole Lotta Love. That is unfathomable unless you were deaf. I'm happy for Herr Dixon to have his royalties - a fellow bass player after all! -, but here he was conveniently making things up. Of course "I never heard that song before" is almost impossible to disprove so it lends itself easily as an argument.

Almost 20 years go by and neither he nor one of his many musicans (that must have recorded or played that song live with him) nor his wife nor any relative nor blues enthusisasts that adore him and write him letters catch that Whole Lotta Love (the biggest hit of the most consitently successful rock band in the US all through the seventies) is his song retitled and with a different rhythm (lifted from Hendrix' "Hey Joe" version btw), yet with the same lyrics and harmonies?  :o Come on. He wasn't a Japanese soldier stranded on a Pacific island who didn't know WW II had ended with the Emperor's surrender.

I'm aware that radio was still segregated then (and possibly is to this day), but even in Africa where I lived Whole Lotta Love was known. It's like Ted Nugent saying he never heard James Brown's Sex Machine (though living in Detroit!) because he never listened to black radio (not that he ever said that), I wouldn't believe that either.

"From 7 to 11" was lifted from a very obscure album by a band called Raven.  I'm not even sure where they came from, but a friend of mine had it, and played the original for me.

Led Zeppelin isn't the only band to borrow/steal liberally.  As much as I love Cheap Trick, they know how to borrow when needed.  I've always heard "Cry, Baby, Cry" in the middle of "I Want You To Want Me".  This one just astounded me.  It's REALLY obvious...

He's credited Burn to Glenn Miller's Fascinating Rhythm, Black Night to Ricky Nelson, Perfect Stangers to Zep's Kashmir, the Highwaystar solo to classical composers, Space Trucking to the Batman theme, Lazy to Eric Clapton's Stepping Out, Smoke on the Water to Oscar Peterson and Pictures of Home to the intro of some Bulgarian shortwave radio station (Jon Lord: "Ritchie always heard the weirdest radio stations. Through a radio built in his stovepipe hat no doubt!"). Machine Head was in that way a very "inspired" album!  :mrgreen: But with Blackmore it is hearing a riff, being inspired by it and taking it as a starting point for something different, which is perfectly legitimate. Zep swiped (swope?) whole songs, lyrics and even arrangements.

One of my favorite numbers from that album was the instrumental "Hard Road (Wring that Neck)". It was the "B" side on the 45 of Highway Star, IIRC.  

Anyone else a fan of that one?  IMO it really stomped!  If I were a baseball player, it would be my batting intro music.

Uwe shows better restraint than me but when it comes to Deep Purple I'm too pedantic not to correct this one. Apologies Al  :)
Wring that neck was on the 1969 album The Book of Taliesyn.
Listen to that hammond riff and tell me thats not heavily influenced by The Man with the Golden Arm theme.

Thanks for that Al I had never noticed that before.

I won't argue about the album - I was thinking of a 45 I have - I thought Hard Road was the B side of Highway Star, but it has been a long while since I've held that 45 so I won't swear to it.  I'm suffering from CRS as usual, y'know.

In 1963 I bought Charlie Rich's "Big Boss Man" and Lonnie Mack's "Baby What's Wrong" within a few months of each other and noticed that both were written by Jimmy Reed. I hadn't heard of him until then but figured it was time to look for more.

Well nofi , I can't wait to see what's next. I think you have officially hit all of my favorites from Robert Johnson and Sonhouse right through Canned Heat and Paul Butterfield and thanks for including my old buds the Frigid Pink.
Speaking of Canned Heat, I don't know if you ever caught them back in the day, but that was one of the best live shows out there. Their records never did them justice. I can't even tell you how many times I saw them, but Bob the Bear walked up to me once and shook my hand and thanked me and told me he was pretty sure he saw my face every time they were in Detroit. I'm pretty sure he was right too.

Possible, but from what I can tell, most Johnson authorities don't agree. He sounded the same in two different sessions in different places.

Or maybe his pact with the devil called for speeding up the tapes.

white stripes version.

I never liked the White Stripes till I heard that cover. After that the rest of it made more sense.

It's sometimes interesting how much closer more modern covers are to the original than you expect. For example, coming from covers of "I Put A Spell on You" by The Animals and Nina Simone, the Marilyn Manson version sounds like a travesty. Till you go back to Screaming J Hawkins and realise Manson pretty much nailed it.

Post by: rahock on March 18, 2011, 11:09:50 AM
Nofi,
King Biscut Boy with Crowbar WTF :o. I've been looking for that since the early 70s. There is a song on that called Badly Bent that I played for years. The guitar player I had at the time was a real stick of dynamite and he turned me on to the tune and he turned a few others on to it and I turned a few others on to it and so on. Anyway, there have been at least 20 or 30 local bands playing that song for 40 freakin' years and I only know two people who have ever heard the record...and one of them died two years ago. No one ever had the lyrics right, I had a few and made up the rest and another singer I know who learned the song from my old guitar player did the same thing and made up about half his own lyrics. Everytime I hear a local band do that tune I listen to see if they're singing my lyrics or his. I always track down the band members to see where they got the tune and it always comes back to someone I or my old guitar player crossed paths with. I found a few other versions searching on line a few years ago but I never heard the record and of all the people out there playing the song , I've never met anyone who has heard the record except my old guitar player and he never owned a copy. It's a kick ass fast past rocker of a tune(or at least I think it is). I searched for this forever just to see if I was anything close to the original , but no one in any record store I was ever in had a clue. I wasn't really sure it even existed. Part of the problem may have been, I always thought it was Crowbar with King Biscut Boy.
I think Crowbar was a band out of Canada , but I don't know anything for sure ???
Have you got a copy of this??? Where kind I find it ??? JEEZ , I feel like I'm about to find the Holy Grail ;D ;D.

Rick, the one album King Biscuit Boy did with Crowbar was called Official Music. It was reissued on CD in the mid 90s and it's still in print (or reprint). And it's on iTunes.

IIRC Crowbar were Canadians who had backed up Ronnie Hawkins.

I've got to check this out. I said it before and I will say it again, This is the best thread ever ;D. I can't exagerate enough to tell you what a quest this has been for me. I just know when I find the original it will be nothing like the song half of Michigan has been playing for 40 years ;D. I've got a couple of arrangements that I've done from memory of something I heard on the radio and I will come home and hammer it out and think I nailed it. I polish it up and play it for years and pass it on to a lot of other musicians and then a couple of decades later I hear the original again and find out I pretty much wrote an entirely different song. A couple of them are my signature pieces and I get loads of compliments on my creative arrangements. Little do they know it's simply a case of F'd up memory ;) Thank you a million times, I've got to get on itunes and track this sucker down.

In memory of Robert Lockwood Jr on his birthday!

(http://image1.findagrave.com/photos/2008/86/16750887_120667106421.jpg)

Mar. 27, 1915 / Nov. 21, 2006

Lockwood developed a style all his own becoming one of Blues most successful musicians. He was born in Turkey Scratch, Arkansas. He learned to play the guitar at age eleven from blues pioneer Robert Johnson and by the age of fifteen was playing professionally. After playing locally on the radio (where he mentored B.B. King), Lockwood moved to Chicago, Illinois in the 1950's and became a popular session musician for Chess Records. In 1960 he settled in Cleveland, Ohio performing regularly at Fat Fish Blue and other blues establishments. Late in his career he received recognition for his solo work with two of his albums, "I Got to find me a Woman" (1998) and "Delta Crossroads" (2000) receiving Grammy nominations. He toured the US, Europe and Japan regularly, won several National Blues Music Awards and WC Handy Awards and in 1989 was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame. The music legend died in Cleveland after suffering a stroke.

The common opinion on Paul Rogers is that he is the greatest Rock singer of all time. He has a very good voice but I think he has a very generic sound too. To me , everything he does sounds the same ???.

Free was the early 70s. He was what, 20 or so? Undoubtedly, he was at his best in Free and Bad Co. The "Muddy Water Blues" album was done in '93 if memory serves - and he has done a fair amount of recording since then. Compared to most rock vocalists from his era, his voice has held up remarkably well. I am one of those who consider him to be the top dog. His voice, IMHO, is the best blend of blues, soul and rock ever. He managed to get all of that emotion and grit into (with Bad Co) three-minute rock staples. Lou Gramm is another guy who had that gift, but sadly, his health issues cheated him out of at least a decade or so, and his voice has not weathered the storms well.

While I am a huge Rogers fan, whenever this conversation comes up I always like to remind people of how amazingly good Steve Marriot was in this regard. "the best blend of blues, soul and rock ever" applies to Marriot in equal terms to Rogers IMHO. Both guys have/had incredible pitch too which is something that ppl seem to take to easily for granted.

Man, I wore out that John Mayall album (and a few others) when I was still in high school ;D. Interesting thing is, Mayall was my introduction to the blues. Learning American music from Brits is a bit bass akwards, but I'm sure I'm not the only one of that era that got it that way. I've been a blues man ever since.
I was hip to Mayall before I was hip to BB King and I was hip to BB King before I was hip to T Bone Walker and Muddy Waters. God I was a Backwards Child :-[.

Chicken Shack. I remember seeing them at a rock festival in Iowa. When they started playing my friend dragged me up to the stage. The album out at the time was "Accept" and it is great. A few years ago I was looking on ebay to buy a copy and found the CD titled "Pluckin Good" another great blues collection.

I had the pleasure of interviewing him, and what you say is very true.  He was very down to earth.  He even invited my then girlfriend into the dressing room, when it was found that a small fire had broken out at Park West.  That night, in Chicago, Rory had a sold out show with The Who competing in an arena across town.

Certainly more fluid than "I-studder-across-the-strings"-Ace Frehley ever was.  :mrgreen:

I liked the guitar shop scene because while Paul looks like a Soprano his son looks so much "Jewish nerd kid" he could be casted for the role, yet plays some nice lines (like any good father Paul says he has been surpassed by his son as a guitarist by now which is most likely true so Stanley sen. can do more on guitar than Kiss shows). It struck me as "universal language of the Blues" (whether you eat porc or not), that is why I posted it. Glad you appreciated it, I did not want to lay claim that young Evan Stanley (or Evan Eisen as the case may be) is the next great white hope blues kid!

Yes.  I had the misfortune of seeing Big Brother with Kathi.  They were pretty bad by then, and opening for a young Blue Oyster Cult didn't help them.  A couple years later, McDonald had a solo album out that had Ronnie Montrose on it.  I remember it getting some good reviews.

Not all Kraut bands sound like the Scorpions, Nofi, some of zem even zing ze blües in Deutsch. Like the iconic Interzone which were in my book the best German singing band ever. This will probably sound grating and alien to you native English speakers, but Heiner Pudelko, their late lead singer (brain tumor, no, he wasn't gay), phrased our schöne langwich like no other. He sang the blues as if it was invented in East Prussia where he was born.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2ZcBwGmcFI

Most people attempting to sing blues in German phrase it like English. Jule Neigel, talented as she is, is one of those "Germenglish"-singers. I suppose her lead guitarist saw one SRV vid too many.  :-\

I dunno how I spaced out and forgot these guys in my last post.  Local dudes.  Looks like they got a new drummer   I liked their first record best (before the keyboardist joined; rawer, dirtier, rootsier - back when they'd be performing on street corners in Kensington market, and similar nooks and crannies) - that's here, no vids I could find: http://catl.bandcamp.com/album/ad-nde-vas-a-ning-n-lado. 

Anyway, last time I saw them I turned to my bud (blues fan and guitarist) and said
"Dude sure knows the Devil's fingering"
"what's that?"
"use your tail to hold the sixth note in the chord"
LOLs all around

Old beef of mine re:videos.  Plug your guitars in.  Even if there's no amp at the other end of the cord, help me suspend my disbelief.  In wide  or passing shots, fine, you can get away without, but if you're gonna close up on the guitar body so that the empty jack is right there staring me in the face, then you're just a lazy sod with a asshat director.

I had heard that Shannon had health problems - just checked his website and a few other sites, and I can't find anything except that he was OK and signed an endorsement deal with Markbass in May of 2012. 

His website says there's a 30th anniversary edition of the Texas Flood album about to be released....

Disc One of the 30th Anniversary Legacy Edition of Texas Flood includes the original album in its entirety with the bonus track “Tin Pan Alley” (aka “Roughest Place in Town”).

Disc Two of the newly expanded Texas Flood will premiere a previously unavailable hour’s long set of Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble live at Ripley’s Music Hall in Philadelphia.  Recorded on October 20, 1983 for a WMMR broadcast, the extraordinary Ripley’s performance finds Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble coming straight out of the gun already at an undeniable peak of their formidible powers.

I just came across this one.  It's a cover, but read what Donal Gallagher says about it, and The Commitments.

"Roddy Doyle, who wrote that, based it on Rory. Rory was a sort of muse for that – kind of the guy who didn’t want to play this show band music, and went out and sort of went for a different form of music, i.e. the blues. In the movie, it’s soul music. In fact, when they were casting for the movie, [director] Alan Parker called the office. He had gone back to the writer, Roddy Doyle, and said that they couldn’t find the trumpet player, Lips or whatever the guy was called. Roddy said to Alan Parker “Well, if you can’t find him, truth be known, I wrote it about a guitar player – Rory Gallagher. If you could get Rory to play the part of Joey ‘Lips’, the trumpet player, I’ll rewrite the screenplay to be a guitar player. The whole legend of ‘did he play with so-and-so’, that all comes from Rory – did Rory play with Muddy Waters, did he play with Jerry Lee Lewis, did he have this reputation, did he really go out there and do it?” I managed to get Rory as far as Alan Parker’s office, and Rory just refused. He did a reading for him, but just said “Look, I’m not the one.” At the time, I was praying that he’d take the part. I really thought it would be a life-changing experience for Rory at a crucial point in his life. I thought he’d really have to look at life differently. It wasn’t to be. But in fact, in the movie, the last line is “Let’s go back to Gallagher’s.” -- Donal Gallagher

I have his debut. It is as much RnB/soul (in an old-fashioned sense) and pop as it is blues. Plus a little Hendrix thrown in. No black guitarist - unless he's very traditionally bluesy and has short-cropped hair - will ever escape the Hendrix tag me thinks. Anyway, the album is by no means bad, but not the awe-inspiring piece of work it has been heralded as either. Not exactly hype, but over-excitement, ok?

I like Cray, but I guess he is too well-behaved for most blues enthusiasts, they probably miss the grime in his playing. To me he sometimes sounds as if he was a black guy from Northern England who grew up listening to Eric Clapton not the American blues greats. But I like his terse and clean style - "unblack" as it may be.

Post by: uwe on October 01, 2013, 11:50:53 AM
"since the black community shows little or no interest in this music ..."

True, but why is that I wonder? Is it that they feel that the blues was hijacked by white rock'n'roll? That Jimi Hendrix is no longer one of theirs? That the blues origins are too little urban, still too much Jim Crow and plantation, while soul and funk were the music of an emerging black middle class and that rap and hip hop is the confident modern music of an angry and demanding urban black youth? Eminem aside, rap and hip hop certainly havn't been adopted by white music culture to the extent that the twelve bar blues became a mold for white rock'n'roll and eventually white rock or even to the extent that black soul music shaped blue-eyed soul.

Tina Turner once said something that made me think. She was asked why - once she had her 80ies career sans Ike - her backing bands regularly featured no black players, why she had white players heavily influenced by black players (such as Laurie Wisefield who had played with Home, Al Stewart and Wishbone Ash and had a strong blues and funk infuence), but not "the real thing". And she said, rather defensively and not declaring it a coincidence at all, that whenever she hears a black player she hears the blues and that that was essentially the music of dejection and oppression to her and that she did not want that for her band, that white players didn't have that emotional baggage weighing them down.  
Title: Re: Good Ol' Classic Blues Songs
Post by: Dave W on October 01, 2013, 03:18:51 PM
Tina may feel that way but I'm sure B.B. King doesn't mind.

Blues stopped being an exclusively black music once radio and records became widespread. It influenced other forms and was influenced by other forms, just like every other genre. All music changes, some will keep playing the old stuff, others evolve it into something different.

The douchebags at Rolling Stone who claimed that white rock 'n' roll was nothing more than a ripoff of black blues were all idiots. The R & B music of that time was heavily influenced by white popular music, and rock 'n' roll was just as influenced by country as R & B. Just ask Chuck Berry about that.

Ari may have something there... there are no great black "blues-men" as there is too much comfort to produce it, whereas disenchantment with life resulted in punk and rap. Blues is a statement; a feeling: I got the blues; I feel blue... it was all about an old Dobro, a bottle-neck off of an old jug, a dusty porch down some dirt track, an aging arthritic guy just about able to lay that Dobro across his lap and tease some notes out of it whilst proclaiming how life was hard, how unfair it was, how unfaithful he was, or his woman; kids running round in rags, but happy (mostly) with what they had... here, we had punk, albeit the "fascist regime" was men in suits disguised with zippers, but the true disenchantment nowadays probably is RAP... people not happy with their lot, proclaiming how unfair life is, how unfaithful the bitch has been, where the next fix comes from, dreaming of the quick road to wealth, guns and drugs...

Modern life... time to go...

Just had the word that by the time Jackie hits the next big-one we'll be looking at moving to an independent Scotland... once there, I'll find some old resonator and lay it across my lap and try and tease a note or two out of it with a piece of glass, remembering this lost place called the south...

You could probably say all the same things about metal, which has become another area of disenchantment.  My daughter just posted something yesterday that gave me a chuckle.  "Metal is just fast hip hop with guitars. And screaming."

And like all musical styles, the blues have evolved.  New instruments, new society, new interests and focus.  The change hasn't always been easy to swallow.  I'm not a purist by any means.  I got into the blues by way of the '60s British contribution, and then worked back a ways.  I love the old Elmore James stuff.  Hated the Bo Diddley blues songs.  Paul Revere and the Raiders, believe it or not, started early sounding very much like a blues band.  Black Sabbath emerged from Earth, a blues-based band.

There are some newer blues that I like.  And the purists would probably balk at the five-string bass sound in this, but I like it.

Eminem aside, rap and hip hop certainly havn't been adopted by white music culture to the extent that the twelve bar blues became a mold for white rock'n'roll and eventually white rock or even to the extent that black soul music shaped blue-eyed soul.

Most 15 year old white boys are trying to be gangsta and don't even wanna hear anything with a prominently featured guitar in it with the notable exception of the new Daft Punk.  There are exceptions obviously (there's still metalheads, punks,etc, but they're not in the mainstream).  Hip Hop sensibilities are easily dominating pop music now (production and backing music style, many pop songs have rapped lyrics over the bridge or break at least, many of of those by a guest star MC etc - if it isn't an outright Hip Hop track).  Blues is played out, as someone who very recently was in a very blues based band, the kids don't wanna hear it (hell, the young adults and those my own age don't want to hear it).

Today's top 40:

1 Miley Cyrus (current single is a ballad, but a) she 'twerks' and b) total hip hop style production usually)
2 Katey Perry ( total hip hop backing track, maybe less so the choruses - but whole note guitar is hardly blues)
3 Royals (never heard them before just now, but that's definately Hip Hop influence)
4 Awicci (OK you got one so far.... maybe - kinda folky)
5 Robin Thicke (total hip hop backing track and 2 guest rappers.... he's like a white Nate Dog but with nothing relevant to say and nicer clothes)
6 Drake (he's even black!  :P)

...

(and these are just the easy case ones on the rest of the first page of the list):

....Eminem is at 11, JayZ and Justin Timberlake at 14, another Robin Thicke w guest rapper at 18, Big Sean, Lil Wayne & Jhene Aiko at 22....

There isn't a solidly blues-based song in the bunch.

The only people left carrying the torch are Harde Blues Dades (bit of an in-joke from another board I am on but this guy pretty much summarises it):

This one (http://www.tonedeaf.com.au/news/international-news/352279/collectors-holy-grail-becomes-most-expensive-78rpm-record-ever-sold.htm) went for $37,100!

Speaking of out of tune instruments, here's a tune that's not quite a blues in form but the piano makes it sound very bluesy. I can't believe they let it on the album. I guess they took what they could get in the 50's.

LOL, voice and guitar are perfectly in tune - just not with each other! The piano has that classic Western Saloon distuning in itself but is also too high compared to voice and bass. Wonder whether they speeded up some tracks but others not when mixing the end result.

I remember growing up and listening to my brothers "Boogie With CH", "Future Blues" & "Hooker 'n Heat" albums.

Years later I was amazed to learn that they were playing a bar show at a small military facility in California (1979 or '80) where I was going to school.  Well, as they went on "the Bear" took ill, and never fully made it out from behind the curtain.  Heat went on (for a short while) anyway and it was pretty awkward. I remember that at one point, he was prone, behind all the gear, with a mic (which would soon be confiscated by a bandmate).

I'd blame the airline food, but I think they were from California.

Too bad, that tiny club was usually booking stuff that no one wanted to listen to, let alone go see live.  I dragged a whole bunch of people down there to watch this train-wreck...oh well, I was 18 years old and they had .50 cent screwdrivers...which, come to think of it, might have been the cause of the problem.

Dave is now gonna say something anticlimatic like "Black who?" or "I wasn't aware they had covered this song" or "My dad was a Methodist preacher, I wasn't allowed to listen to Black Sabbath at home" or something similar, watch this space.

Actually, those early Sabbath albums had quite a bit of blooze content. You could hear where they came from. I always thought that early Sabbath owed their share to Cream and Mountain, they sounded a bit like those two bands on a heavy dose of Quaaludes ...

We went over this with Evil Woman a few years ago, and no, I wasn't aware of it at the time.

Crow still plays a few shows a year, with the original lead singer and bassist and IIRC sometimes the original keyboardist. They some sort of benefit show early this month with Joey Molland's Badfinger. I haven't seen them since the early 90s.

When I heard the Sabbath debut for the first time I thought that was the only good song on it! It had more harmonies than the rest of the album combined.  :mrgreen: It took me a while to get to like Sabbath, they were initially too doomy-gloomy monolithic for me. The first album of theirs I really liked was essentially their Sgt Pepper: Sabbath Bloody Sabbath which to most Sabbathos is already too sophisticated and over-arranged. I learned to like their older stuff from there, but SBS is still my favorite.

My favorite album is still Paranoid.  Those blues roots do come out with the harp on "The Wizard", another favorite.  Outside of that song, the first album plodded a little too much for my liking.  They picked up the pace a little and I think that's what carried them over.  The title track for SBS is reminiscent of this...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsAoH2R9KMw

And I agree that SBS was probably their best album.  Those of us old enough to have been there when it came out remember that. 

The only time I saw Badfinger, Jerry Shirley was the drummer.

Sabbath was a straight blues band before they got signed. Tony's accident that cut off his fingertips led to them detuning and Ozzy's laziness made sure they stayed there. There are very clear blue roots under their music, but circumstance and their individual personalities changed it into something much more more than simply the sum of its parts. Those dirty Birmingham boys were the antithesis of hippie musing which grew into to prog overindulgence. Sabbath's extended jams always resolved rather than evolved, and once that tritone deal with the devil was struck, there was no going back. They literally laid down the framework that every angry metaller has since followed, myself included.

I bought that Gary Clarke jr album on the basis of the hype around it and was disappointed. Yes, there are blues influences, but I don't find them overt, I've heard Lenny Kravitz tracks that owe more to the blues than most of what is contained on Clarke's last CD. Mind you, he's not a bad singer or songwriter or guitarist, but I can't see the much heralded new urban blues wonder in him.

I disagree, Nofi! Cray might be too little raw for a purist like you (and your blues knowledge can run circles around mine), he's a bit like a black Eric Clapton, gentlemen blues so to say.  Cray is a black blues guitarist like Denzel Washington is a black actor - they both don't correspond to the "black male" stereotype we all, without being racist, tend to have (and which a genre like Rap reinforces all the time).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ew7hvG--n0g

But I like Cray's approach. No, it's not animalistic, gritty and you can't hear the plantation just around the corner, but I think it's sincere. Miles Davis wasn't a "black male" either and his music, while intellectually playful and not unemotional, was always a little reserved and not oozing raw emotion.

cray seems more r&b influenced than others. smooth dinner music for the polite set. i disagree about miles. i find alot of emotion in his music, even bitches brew. :o coltrane was awarded the emotion crown long ago starting with a love supreme and on to the end. even his last record, interstellar space, which was 100% free jazz from start to finish is loaded with emotional playing. even though most folks can't stand it. a tough but rewarding listen, imo.

Maybe I should let more competent men on the matter speak:

"I never heard any blues like I heard the guitarist from Deep Purple play. I had to stop blink my eyes, and go back and take a close look at this cat. He was playing some black blues that'd make some black guitarists stand up and take notice."

Dear Nofi, your observations can sometimes be of striking lucidity, but here they are - to quote a Deep Purple title for once -"clearly quite absurd"!  Your definition of blues is as convenience-driven as your good administration's definition of international law.

You're right, he might have discovered Little Richard and co-written some of his hits, but then Little Richard is - like Keith Emerson really - already too far removed from the blues to count. And Sam Cooke, but that guy had nothing to do with blues either, because blues and soul are really like man and ape, not related at all.

The only authority in the blues apartheid state is of course Nofi, grand wizard of definition who is in and who is out.

"DP is not a blues band."

Thanksfully not, but I'm not aware that anybody made that claim. But they could play a blues tune unless your definition of blues is that it cannot be played by anyone who plays nothing else but blues. How elitist.

Bumps Blackwell was always a jazz and early rock & roll guy. Not a good ol' classic blues guy.

Most popular music has some blues influences. That doesn't make Sam Cooke a blues guy or Bumps Blackwell a blues authority. And DP playing a blues tune in DP style doesn't qualify either.

Posting five videos in one post to try and prove a point is reminiscent of a certain departed person. It's not going to convince anybody. And it really slows down my browser. What's next, prefacing your posts with "as we all know?"  ;)

I've seen discussions elsewhere similar to this one.  Such discussions can take many forms.  Sometimes it seems blues purists have some kind of test that must be passed to determine if someone is really a "bluesman" or not.  I suppose if people want to look at it that way, that's okay.  Ultimately, though, I don't care how someone gets labeled.  I've seen people argue whether Hendrix was a bluesman or not.  Once again, I don't care.  I think he was heavily influenced by the blues.  Whether he passes the "blues test" or not just doesn't matter to me.  If I were going to be critical of him, though, I'd be more critical of the direction his music was taking during his latter period.  Some people, of course, think that's when his music was at its best.  It's a matter of opinion. 

If you really slow down Clapton's solo on "Sunshine of Your Love," that really sounds bluesy to me.  Is the song a blues song?  Probably not.  Once again, I don't care.  I don't see what the point is in this thread.  But I guess that's my problem.  Maybe I'm not interesting enough or perceptive enough. 

As I type this, I'm listening to the Hendrix Axis album.  One reviewer labeled it as "jazz metal."  But is it jazz or metal, or jazz metal?  Probably not.  It doesn't matter.  I don't know what's so important about labels.  To quote a line from Wayne's World when somebody was supposedly quoting Kierkegaard--"If you label me, you negate me."

No need to get flustered Dave. I hear the blues in what Blackmore played in the context of that Deep Purple song. If you can't, maybe Uwe's right and you weren't listening. I wouldn't say they qualified as stadium rock at that point in their career yet either. Here's a more traditional blues song dealing with heartache.

I'm going to post one of the most obvious choices - because it still stuns me that Cream took Robert Johnson's "Crossroad" and made it into one of the rock breakthroughs of the 60's.  I think Johnson must have been spinning his grave like a lathe when they released it.  However, I think it's a magnificent musical adaptation.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yd60nI4sa9A

In this 1968 version of Crossroads, I'm amused by the video "technique" from 2 minutes on - zooming in and out quickly and pulling focus were about the only visual effects that directors had to work with back then.  The quick zooms in the solo are especially annoying.  And as usual, the cameras didn't capture Jack Bruce going nuts on the bass - that guy was all over it!

That, dearest Dave, is (to use a technical term) a load of crap. Once you have cooled down scroll back and find the posting where Nofi complained in his reply to a Grand Funk bluesish track being posted how that was almost as preposterous as claiming that Deep Purple played blues once in a while. It was then and only then that I intervened to stop the nonsense and provide - this being the LBO - some facts. I had no intention to derail nor did I derail, I'm actually happy how a thread started by Nofi's longstanding friend Terry has been nurtured by him in Terry's lamentable absence and has now seen the same lucky fate as the Crimean: It's back in good hands.   

You being flustered is down to a dearth of facts and failing to read (and listen).

Renewed mention of Grand Funk, always an underestimated and unjustly derided band, gives us the chance to return this thread elegantly to its original tracks ... Mind you, I'm hedging my bets and posting John Ellison's original rather than Grand Funk's (also very nice) take on it, albeit even that might be a little too soulish for our resident Bluesfascisonados here, but, hell, I'm European and allowed to get away with it! It at least avoids the stadium/arena rock tag. Pleasantly unrelated to Nick Simper, Rod Evans, Roger Glover, Ian Gillan, Glenn Hughes, David Coverdale, Tommy Bolin (ooops, deserving an honorary mention in this thread, don't hold the color of his skin and a short stint with Purple against him forever),

Oh yeah Grand Funk did do Some Kind Of Wonderful. That's bluesy alright. I prefer the earlier material though, when Mel had the mudbucker in his Jazz bass. Nice rendition from John Ellison there Uwe.
Here's a tune off an album I just picked up from an old shop in Lowell, MA. It's 89' and that's kinda classic from my perspective. Hamp is classic. He's backed up by some young lions here, notably Anthony Jackson who is laying it down solid and simple. Hamp is the one who steals the performance when his solo comes around. Listen for a man in his 80s expressing a lifetime of experience. That's good ole' classic blues to me.

There' a few others on YouToob as well; The Meters and Robben Ford. I like the original best though. Really nice sparsely layered, syncopated, simplistic groove that's very different. It also refreshingly has no guitar solo!!!!!

I think this may be my favorite Guitar/bass/drums band of all time. The first is an old O'Jays (actually older than that) tune. Not really a blues I guess, but more so than Deep Purple :)

The second is a blues for sure and has its own intro:

I'd heard a song or two from Snooks over the years but I re-discovered him maybe six months ago and listened to everything of his I could find. He was very eclectic, claimed to have a live repertoire of 2500 songs. Lots of acoustic stuff that I'm really not that interested in but there's plenty of other stuff that's just great.

Here's another simple little tune that I couldn't get out of my head for several months:

Doubt it! Bas(s)ically, Lyons is a Jazz Bass guy (and he could get that sound with the front pup). I've seen him play Wal, Warwick and boutique Jazz Basses, but never anything remotely Gibson. Not a short scale guy I believe.

"Lee was the best known as the front man of Ten Years After, and Lyons was the co-founder.  Lyon’s bass playing is rock solid and is a great example of the rock blues styles of the sixties.  His main bass is a sunburst ’62 Fender Jazz bass with a rosewood fingerboard. He still has the bass but also plays a replica of the bass, knocks dings and all, made for him by The Bass Centre in London."

Since we started talking about Firebirds in the Thunderbird thread, that got me to thinking about Clarence Gatemouth Brown. He's one of those musicians who spans the entirety of American music in my estimate. Blues, Country, Jazz, R&B, and Rock. Sounds as good with Roy Clark as he does with Freddy King or a big band with horns.

The really cool thing about this clip is that Gallagher didn't know the song at all.  You can hear Jack Bruce telling him how the song goes as they walk towards the stage.  Rory is getting a feel for the song during the first verse, and pretty restrained.  By the second verse, he's on top of it.  My favorite live version of this song.

Post by: uwe on November 06, 2015, 10:42:35 AM
I assume that posting this will get me uncermoniously ousted from this forum forever and my name erased from all its historic records. Plus Nofi will say something how only a stadium-rock-warped Teutonic character like me could slip Def Leppard into a blues thread. Here we go!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_eWLgir_a8

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WmPcVKYYz4

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSzNYXm6DV8

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEEqtcfYAMM

To make matters worse, the young man is not only a member of, yes, Def Leppard, but also a - gulp! - Deep Purple fan. That is him on the back cover of Made in Japan (Dave: a Deep Purple album that had fleeting popularity in the 70ies), when he still had hair, the blond kid watching Blackmore (right underneath Herr Blackmore's posterior if I am not mistaken), he wasn't at the Budokan, but he was at the Rainbow Theatre in London where the pics on the Made in Japan cover are from. Collen says that this gig made him decide to pick up playing guitar, all things not only lead to, but are also spawned by Ritchie ...

(http://japan.escubes.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/deep-purple-made-in-japan-super-deluxe-back.jpg)

Speaking of Herr Blackmore, this is the best Mistreated cover version I have so far heard. And the fact that it is sung by a man (Joe Elliott, another lep(p)er, who should by rights not be mentioned in a blues thread) and a woman (the amazing Ms Debbi Blackwell-Cook, godmother of Mrs Helen Collen, Phil's wife) gives the lyrics and the situation they describe a whole new slant. Lovely.

A brave attempt of Phil, you gotta give him that. But somehow his version never really gets airborne. His voice is too limited. And his acoustic guitar skills are nothing to write home about either (as far as I'm concerned).

I still prefer the Humble Pie version

And Ike & Tina did a great version too
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7GgziI8gug

All three versions show you really need a strong lead vocal to do the song justice.

I never gave that a thought, sorry! My Marriott knowledge is pretty much limited to a Small Faces and a Humble Pie compilation plus the iconic Rocking the Fillmore. His work - spread over so many record labels - has not been served well on CD (I also had Rock On as an LP way back ...), it really is high time for a comprehensive boxed set, "reassuringly expensively priced" for middle-agers like me.  :mrgreen:
