Auch in diesem Jahr wollen wir euch beschenken: In unserem Weihnachtsspecial sprechen wir gleich über vier Alben! Mit dabei sind in diesem Jahr Ron Wood, D'Angelo, Tri Yann und Manfred Mann's Earth Band. Den Anfang macht Manfred Mann's Earth Band mit dem Album "Criminal Tango", dem persönlichen Meilenstein von SWR1 Musikredakteur Dave Jörg. Er erinnert sich sogar noch genau an den Moment, als er die erste Single des Albums zum ersten Mal gehört hat. Es war vor dem Fernseher 1986, in der Fernsehsendung "Na sowas!" mit Moderator Thomas Gottschalk. Für Sänger Chris Thompson war es das letzte Album mit "Manfred Mann's Earth Band". Und auch bei "Criminal Tango" steht er selber schon als Gast mit auf dem Cover – gesondert und nicht als Teil der Band. "Die Mischung aus rockigem Unterboden und verspielten Melodien hat mich total angesprochen!" – Dave Jörg Das Besondere an "Criminal Tango” ist für Dave Jörg auch die Mischung aus elektronischen Klängen und einer ordentlichen Portion Rock. Und für den größten ABBA-Fan der Redaktion sind auch die tollen Harmoniegesänge etwas, das ihn beeindruckt hat. "Harmoniegesänge machen was mit mir!" – Dave Jörg SWR1 Musikredakteur Stephan Fahrig hat uns für unser Weihnachtsspecial das im Jahr 2000 erschienene Album "Voodoo" von D'Angelo mitgebracht, einem der Wegbereiter des Neo-Soul, wie Frank König anfügt. Neo-Soul kam Mitte der 90er auf und verbindet Soul mit R 'n' B-Elementen, Jazz und Hip-Hop. Dabei erkennt man den Sound gut daran, dass er sehr reduziert ist und das Tempo sehr langsam ist. Drums, Bass und Keyboards (oft ein Fender Rhodes) sind da zu hören, erklärt Musikredakteur Stephan Fahrig. Neben großen Pop- und Rockstars wie Ozzy Osbourne, Brian Wilson, Ace Frehley und anderen ist auch D'Angelo auf der Liste der in diesem Jahr leider verstorbenen Künstler. Die Weichen für eine musikalische Karriere sind bei D'Angelo schon früh gelegt worden – und etwas klischeehaft, betont Stephan Fahrig. D'Angelo ist als Sohn eines Pfarrers geboren, hat früh Klavierspielen gelernt und auch in der Kirche gesungen. Danach hat er angefangen, selbstständige musikalische Entscheidungen zu treffen, und hat im Alter von 16 Jahren gemeinsam mit seinem Bruder eine Band gegründet. Anfang der 90er-Jahre geht D'Angelo nach New York, wo er von dem Label EMI einen Plattenvertrag bekommt. Im Jahr 2000 erscheint sein zweites Album "Voodoo", das, wie oben beschrieben, sehr reduziert klingt. Und auch ein Livealbum gibt's in unserem Weihnachtsspecial 2025. Moderator Frank König hat uns Musik von einem seiner liebsten Reiseziele mitgebracht, der Bretagne. Die Band heißt Tri Yann und ist die dienstälteste Band Frankreichs, wie König betont. Zu ihrem Jubiläum hat die Band ein Livealbum herausgebracht: "50 Ans De Scène". Die Idee hinter der Band, erklärt der Meilensteine-Moderator, ist, dass sie die Kultur und die Sprache der Bretagne in ihrer Musik wieder aufleben lassen wollen. Und das beginnt schon beim Namen der Band, der eben nicht französisch, sondern bretonisch ist und "die drei Jans" bedeutet – eben nach der Urbesetzung der Gruppe. Kennengelernt hat Frank König die Musik von Tri Yann Mitte der 70er-Jahre. Seitdem hat er die Band kontinuierlich weiterverfolgt und auch ihre Entwicklung mitbekommen. "Mit der Zeit sind die immer rockiger geworden. Also bretonisch-keltische Einflüsse, gemischt mit Rock. […] Mit der Zeit haben die sich ihre Fans erarbeitet, weil sie eben diese Musik in die Jetzt-Zeit geholt haben. Das war eine tolle Sache, weil die nicht nur die alten Traditionsweisen gespielt haben, sondern der Musik diesen neuen Touch beigefügt haben." – Frank König Meilensteine-Fans wissen, dass Katharina Heinius und Frank König zwei der größten Beatles-Fans der Welt (zumindest in der SWR1 Redaktion) sind. Und ausgerechnet Katharina bringt zum Weihnachtsspecial ein Album der "Konkurrenz" mit; das Soloalbum von Rolling Stones-Gitarrist Ron Wood "I've Got My Own Album To Do". Die Erklärung dafür gibt Heinius umgehend: "Es ist auch ein kleiner Teil der Beatles mit drauf", erklärt sie im Podcast. Und abgesehen davon hören wir auch noch andere Teile der Rolling Stones, der ehemaligen Band von Rod Stewart und Ron Wood, den Faces und auch David Bowie. "Es ist ein Album, das mir wahnsinnig ans Herz geht und das ich seit vielen, vielen Jahren schon hören kann. Das ist ein Album, wenn ich nicht weiß, was ich hören will, dann mache ich das an, weil das geht einfach immer!" – Katharina Heinius 1974 ist das Album "I've Got My Own Album To Do" entstanden, also in der Zeit, bevor Ron Wood Teil der Rolling Stones geworden ist. Wie kommt es, dass so viele Gaststars auf seinem Soloalbum vertreten sind? Das hat unterschiedliche Gründe. Zum einen war Ron Wood durch seine Umtriebigkeit in der Londoner Musikszene unglaublich gut vernetzt, und zum anderen hatte er zu der Zeit schon sein eigenes Haus mit Tonstudio. "The Wick" lag im etwas abgelegenen Londoner Westen, in Richmond. Dort hat sich die Londoner Musikszene gerne getroffen, miteinander Zeit verbracht und auch Musik gemacht. Kein Wunder, dass in diesem kreativen Umfeld ein Album entstehen konnte, das nicht auf Hits ausgelegt war, sondern auf dem wir einfach die Freude an der Musik und Freundschaft hören können. __________ Über diese Alben sprechen wir im Weihnachtsspecial 2025: (01:15) – "Criminal Tango" von Manfred Mann's Earth Band(10:02) – "Voodoo" von D'Angelo(22:00) – "50 Ans De Scène" von Tri Yann(35:35) – "I've Got My Own Album To Do" von Ron Wood __________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zum Weihnachtsspecial 2025 findet ihr hier: https://1.ard.de/meilensteine-weihnachtsspecial-2025 __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

Qui a dit que l'album était mort ? Format un peu ringardisé par les plateformes de streaming, l'album est, il est vrai, délaissé par de nombreux artistes. Trop long à faire, trop décevant face à un public qui zappe vite. Et pourtant on compte cette année une bonne vingtaine d'albums, rien que sur les artistes qu'on a l'habitude de suivre. Parfois une compile de titres, parfois une longue histoire à raconter. Focus sur 5 d'entre eux cette semaine, pour nous plonger au cœur de la fête, de la nuit, tel l'album « Mydnight » sorti par Myd

Part II of my year-end review of pop music across 2025 tackles Selena Gomez & Benny Blanco's 'I Said I Love You First,' Miley Cyrus with 'Something Beautiful,' and Demi Lovato's 'It's Not That Deep.' All three acts shared similar experiences in the earlier halves of their music careers, and this episode discusses the parallels shared between these artists in 2025. For Selena Gomez, I'll be diving into the couples branding behind her work with Benny Blanco, and how both the singles and campaign may be a mismatch for the album's core. On 'It's Not That Deep,' I'll be going through the recent album and how the singles may have prevented the album from reaching its full potential, and how Demi's dance effort is her most ambitious to date. Plus, how does Miley's new album stack up next to 'Can't Be Tamed,' 'She Is Coming,' 'Endless Summer Vacation,' or 'Plastic Hearts?' Let me know your thoughts as well.
