On n'a parlé que de ça en 2022, Kate Bush, 63 ans, était N°1 dans le monde entier avec une chanson qu'elle avait pourtant sortie en 1985. Et ce n'est pas tellement le fait que cette chanson ait connu un succès prodigieux à cause de Stranger Things qui étonne, c'est plutôt que l'une des héroïnes de la série l'écoute sur son baladeur et que ça lui sauve la vie. Alors Ca a beau se passer il y a 45 ans, tous les ados d'aujourd'hui se sont identifiés à elle car non seulement ils font tous pareil sauf que c'est du streaming, plus une cassette, mais surtout la musique des années 80 est une évidence pour eux, elle fait partie de leur présent au même titre que les nouveautés. On ne s'étonne donc pas que les jeunes Américains et leurs parents aient découvert un titre qui à l'époque avait échappé à leur pays tout entier. Il faut dire que Kate Bush est une artiste authentiquement et profondément anglaise, un pays dont elle n'aime pas sortir. Comme autrefois le professeur d'Oxford Tolkien dont elle a donné vie à l'univers avec ses Elfes et ses magiciens, dans le monde de la pop et du rock. Avec son visage d'ange, la grâce d'un corps qui semble plus voler que marcher, un talent de compositeur qu'on n'a plus entendu depuis Purcel, une voix de fée haut perchée, Kate Bush nous emmène dans la pénombre des greniers des manoirs britanniques à la recherche d'une adolescence égarée.Plus de quarante ans après ses premiers succès, il ne s'est trouvé personne pour prendre sa place. Comment un tel génie, de la première touche de piano au dernier pas de danse d'un de ses vidéoclips, a-t-il pu éclore dans l'esprit et le corps d'une jeune fille de 19 ans, quand elle a commis son premier tube ? Plus fort, elle n'avait que 16 ans lorsqu'elle a enregistré cette perle sous la direction d'un certain David Gilmour, un des deux leaders de Pink Floyd, totalement subjugué par la musique et la poésie de ce petit prodige qui a déjà écrit une cinquantaine de chansons et dont pourtant, aucun label de disques ne s'était dit intéressé. Après avoir prêté une oreille aux enregistrements recommandés par Gilmour, le patron d'EMI se dit qu'en cette époque où la musique change, cette fille pourrait être « The next big thing », le prochain gros truc. De fait, en 1978, son premier disque allait déchirer les charts de toute l'Europe de haut en bas. On y avait mis les moyens : Geoff Emerick, l'ingénieur du son des Beatles, et une partie de l'entourage de son copain Alan Parsons, un ancien collaborateur de Pink Floyd qui lui aussi s'était mis à vendre des camions de disques. Quatre albums plus tard, en 1985, Kate Bush n'a que 26 ans et pourtant, elle joue jeu égal avec un Peter Gabriel en proposant des disques ambitieux au son révolutionnaire mais authentique, ce qui lui permet d'accomplir le miracle d'en faire des hits. Les Américains ont attendu 2022 pour l'adopter mais au vu des compteurs de streaming de l'ensemble de son répertoire, ils ne sont pas limités à cet unique titre découvert grâce à la série. Avec une voix et une musique surgie d'un passé lointain, Kate Bush séduit les ados d'aujourd'hui mais est-ce si étonnant, quand on sait que le temps n'a pas de prise sur les fées.

By the mid-70's the Beach Boys appeared to be a band that had been left behind.  Sales had been only moderate for their previous albums, and the band was struggling to determine their direction musically.  In the summer of 1973 the movie "American Graffiti" featured several Beach Boys songs, creating nostalgia for the earlier surfing music.Between the revived interest sparked by "American Graffiti" and the success of the Beatles "Red" and "Blue" compilation albums, the Beach Boys released a collection of hits from their early 60's catalogue called Endless Summer.  This featured songs from their Capitol Records days, 1962-1965.  It was a near-instant success reaching the top of the charts in the United States four months after its release, and becoming their second number 1 album on the US charts.  After the success of Endless Summer, the Beach Boys would reposition themselves as an oldies act, continuing in this vein for many years.  Brian Wilson would pen one further Beach Boys studio album in 1977 which would meet with meager sales.  Afterwards the band would focus on their classics until seeing a resurgence in the late 80's generated from another popular film, Tom Cruise's "Cocktail" Wayne brings us this surfin' themed compilation for this week's podcast. Catch A WaveA true surfing song, this tune is about being on a surfboard, waiting for the right wave to come along.  This song was originally released on the 1963 album "Surfer Girl," and a rewritten version was recorded by Jan and Dean as "Sidewalk Surfin."Little Deuce CoupeThis track is about a 1932-vintage Ford model 18 hot rod used in drag racing on the streets of California.  "American Graffiti" had featured the deuce coupe prominently, along with the Beach Boys song.  The lyrics were written by local radio DJ Roger Christian.Shut DownAnother song about drag racing, "shut down" means you are about to beat the person in the race.  The phrase "tach it up" may have lost some meaning in the era of automatic transmission, but the tachometer would run high for a drag race.  The song is told from the perspective of the driver of a 1963 Corvette Sting Ray in a race against a 1962 Dodge Dart.Fun, Fun, FunThe inspiration for this song was a story the Beach Boys heard during a radio interview.  The station owner described his daughter "borrowing" his 1963 Thunderbird to go to a drive-in hamburger shop.  The opening riffs were inspired by Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode."   ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Uptown Saturday Night by Dobie Gray (from the motion picture “Uptown Saturday Night”)Sidney Poitier starred in and directed this action comedy which co-starred Bill Cosby, Harry Belafonte, Richard Pryor, and Flip Wilson. STAFF PICKS:The Joker by the Steve Miller BandLynch leads off the staff picks with a well known song from Steve Miller.  The names in the first line reference several of Miller's previous songs, as well as the made-up word "pompatus."  It barely cracked the top 40 in the US, hitting 40 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Miller borrowed some lyrics from the song "Lovey Dovey" when he talks about wanting to "shake your tree."The Air that I Breathe by the HolliesRob brings us a slow burning but iconic ballad that the Hollies covered.  The original was from Albert Hammond, and previously covered by Phil Everly.  The Hollies version was the most successful, going to number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Alan Parsons was the engineer on this song.Hollywood Swinging by Kool & the GangBruce's staff pick is the first number 1 R&B Single from Kool & the Gang.  It was a crossover hit as well, going to number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Rick Westfield is the keyboardist for it and sings lead.  The song is a true story of the keyboardist wanting to become "a bad piano-playing man" with the group. Rock and Roll Heaven by The Righteous BrothersWayne's features an ode to the rock stars who had died at an early age. This song is another example of a song that was covered, and did better than the original.  Climax performed this song in 1973 but did not chart, while the Righteous Brothers took it to the top 10 in the United States.  Lyric would be added in the years to come as more rock stars passed. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Chameleon by Herbie HancockThis jazz funk instrumental track closes out the podcast for the week.  Thanks for listening to “What the Riff?!?” NOTE: To adjust the loudness of the music or voices, you may adjust the balance on your device.

Alan Parsons cut his teeth as an assistant on the Beatles' Abby Road, and by 1973 he was the main engineer for Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon. Producing was the next step and, in 1975, the Scottish band Pilot had a top five it with the song "Magic". Parsons joined with songwriter and keyboardist Eric Woolfson and arranger Andrew Powell and, with Pilot and a number of session musicians vocalist, produced Tales of Mystery and Imagination in 1976. What was originally a one-off collaboration began a full studio band, stripped down for their first hit album I Robot and even further for the third album, Pyramid. Though pretty much an overlooked album in Parsons's catalogue, it features excellent songwriting by Eric Woolfson and the first vocal performances of bassist David Paton and former Zombies vocalist Colin Blunstone on one of the Project's records.

Crime Capsule is happy to introduce you to a new Evergreen Podcasts show, Something About the Beatles, from David Whelan. He was a successful documentary writer and producer in the UK when, as COVID hit, he began looking into the murder of John Lennon, prompted by a podcast interview he heard. What he discovered quickly led him into a four-year investigation, as he talked with witnesses who had never before spoken publicly.  About Something About The Beatles All episodes of SATB feature conversations. Sometimes they are with Beatles authorities: writers or academics who've done the research and come up with a thesis. Others are with folks in the business: musicians who were inspired by The Beatles and who've walked the walk – written songs, recorded records, gone on tour. They know the ins and outs of Beatles music. Then there are the Beatle witnesses: folks who knew the individual Beatles well, either by direct family relations (Mike McCartney, Jenny Boyd), working directly for The Beatles (Kevin Harrington, Chris O'Dell, Ken Mansfield, Chris Thomas, Alan Parsons, John Leckie, Tony King, and so forth) or else spending considerable time in their world (journalist Ray Connolly, photographer Ethan Russell, journalist Ivor Davis, photographer Tom Murray, filmmaker Paul Saltzman, Nancy Lee Andrews, May Pang, and so forth). These people come to SATB to share their insights and observations, bringing us that much closer to the world The Beatles created. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I first met Alan Parsons in 2004, when I interviewed him for Tape Op issue #42. We've been lucky enough to work together on Recording Academy presentations and meet up socially a few times after that, and I always thought we'd have fun doing a podcast, and as it was now 20 years later, it felt like a good time. Alan had also built his ParSonics Studio on his ranch in California, and a deluxe box set reissue of the Alan Parsons Project's Pyramid album was coming out soon, so we had quite a lot to talk about. Enjoy! -Larry Crane
