This week on TIme Signatures with Jim Ervin, Erv welcomes Manx Blues guitarist, straight from the Isle of Man, Davy Knowles. Davy dropped by to talk about his early years in music, largely influenced by the likes of Rory Gallagher, Eric Clapton, and Robert Johnson. It was the Dire Straits' Sultans of Swing that first bit Davy, and after a few guitar lessons, he chose to take the self-taught route….and the rest is history. The ensuing trail took him from John Mayall and Eric Clapton's ‘Beano Album', to Peter Green's era with Fleetwood Mac, and ultimately landing on Rory-and he was off to the races. It was a fun chat, covering some of his early work with his band, ‘Back Door Slam', and ending on his newest recorded work, ‘The Invisible Man'. We have just one episode left in Season Four….any ideas who it might be?

Episode 78: Omar Hakim. Today on the pod we've got one of the most recorded drummers of all time. The legendary Omar Hakim! We went deep for over 2 hours, and unlocked SO MUCH GOLD, so we're releasing this conversation in two parts. In Part 1, Omar shares the stories behind some of his most iconic recordings, including his legendary session with David Bowie on Let's Dance, his deep musical relationship with Nile Rodgers, and his time in Weather Report. We also get into the wild story of how he tracked the entire Dire Straits album "Brothers in Arms" (including the questions I've always had about Money for Nothing). With this interview, I hope you'll now understand how Omar became the legend he is today. I think your mind will be blown when you hear about the caliber of musicians that were around him since he was a kid! Part 2 drops next week. For now, here's the first hour of my conversation with the amazing Omar Hakim. ‘Go with Elmo Lovano' is a weekly podcast where Elmo interviews creatives and entrepreneurs in music on HOW they push forward every day, got where they are in their careers, manage their personal lives, and share lessons learned and their most important insights.

In this Season 7 episode, I discuss Dire Strait's hit album, Brothers in Arms, giving a quick history of how the album came together, a rundown of the songs, my own personal take and ranking of the songs, and my overall rating of the album.

Catching up with the backup - it's a timely episode of the Garage Hour (not to be cornfused with the usual when-we-can upload freakout).  There are still a few more further-behind  units to be kicked into production, so don't worry - you won't miss a thing. What's in this 'un?  Good electronics versus new, "dumb" appliances versus robot vacuums conspiring with the 'fridge, and the importance of having a good TV repairman up your sleeve.  There's a stint with the inevitable: electric cars and why taxpayer dough makes them soft and flabby (and inevitable losers); a possible breakthrough in small trucks (because it's simple), the spy on the counter, the spy in your solar panels, the spy in A.I., and how Carl Sagan called this 50 years ago (and Asimov did 100 years ago).  Add on a few thoughts about the freedom to roam (and boat, when you're in Florida (man)), and more from JFS3, and you've got a show. While we're at it, this episode's got a few Excellent Weirdo R.I.P.s for some high-Q fellows who left us (and it's not okay): Joe Don Baker, George Wendt and Bruce Glover.  Make it more: music from Karma to Burn, KMFDM, Deadbolt, Fatso Jetson, I Mother Earth, Dire Straits, Rev. Heat, Clutch, the Allmans and Fun Lovin' Criminals.

"Back in March of 1979 the movie The China Syndrome came out. Weeks later the Three Mile Island nuclear disaster occurred. This lead to musicians setting up MUSE and holding the NO Nukes concerts, albums and film. We have the entire story including the first time Bruce Springsteen was recorded live."

"Last week we spoke of Dockery Farms which the birthplace of The Blues. As all music does it was expanded and taken to different places by the musicians who played it. Here is a run down and description of the most popular forms of The Blues."

Com mais de 30 milhões de cópias vendidas no mundo todo e canções como "Walk of Life", "Money for Nothing" e “So Far Away”, “Brothers in Arms” (1985) fez do Dire Straits um dos projetos mais bem-sucedidos da história da música. Para celebrar o aniversário de 40 anos do álbum, Cleber Facchi (@cleberfacchi) e Nik Silva (@niksilva) conversam sobre esse que é um dos registros mais icônicos da década de 1980.Gostou do podcast?

"The Dream Of The Blue Turtles" war 1985 das erste Soloalbum von Sting nach seiner Zeit bei The Police. Die Idee dazu – der Titel lässt es erahnen – basiert auf einem Traum von ihm. Vor 40 Jahren, am 17. Juni 1985, ist "The Dream Of The Blue Turtles" von Sting herausgekommen. Sting selbst kann es kaum glauben, dass es schon so lange her sein soll, hat er im SWR1 Interview erzählt: "Es fühlt sich überhaupt nicht an wie 40 Jahre, viel mehr so als ob es gestern gewesen wäre. Es überrascht mich immer, wie schnell die Zeit vergeht". Nachdem die Zeit für The Police 1984 geendet hatte, wollte Sting, der mit bürgerlichem Namen Gordon Sumner heißt, sich weiterentwickeln. Weg von der Musik mit einem Rockband-Powertrio und hin zu komplexerer Musik, auch mit Jazzelementen. Für dieses Vorhaben hat sich der britische Sänger fantastische Jazzmusiker ins Studio geholt. Unter anderem war auch Omar Hakim dabei, der gerade ein Jahr zuvor den Schlagzeuger bei den Dire Straits ersetzt hatte, während der Aufnahmen zum legendären Album "Brothers In Arms". Weg vom Pop und Rock, hin zum Jazz. Für einen etablierten Künstler, der mit seinen Songs schon Millionen Menschen erreicht hat, war das eine enorme Veränderung, die ein gleichermaßen großes Risiko mit sich bringt, welches Sting allerdings nicht scheut. Und auch wenn die Zuwendung zum Jazz auf dem Album für einige Fans von The Police ungewöhnlich erscheint, ist es für Sting eigentlich eher eine Rückbesinnung auf seine musikalischen Ursprünge gewesen. Vor seiner Zeit bei The Police hat der Musiker nämlich in unterschiedlichen Jazzbands gespielt. Musikalisch ist "The Dream Of The Blue Turtles" von Sting zwar sehr durchdacht und hat durch die vielen musikalischen Ausnahmetalente an den Instrumenten auch sehr komplexe Passagen, in denen sich die Jazzmusiker wirklich austoben können. Doch für den Hörer startet dieses Album gleich mit zwei sehr eingängigen Nummern, die auf den ersten Blick gar nicht so komplex wirken. Zum einen wäre das der Album-Opener "If You Love Someone Set Them Free" und das karibisch (mehr als nur angehauchte) "Love Is The Seventh Wave". Mit seinem Album "The Dream Of The Blue Turtles" und seiner neuen musikalischen Ausrichtung hat Sting 1985 mit Sicherheit einige Fans überrascht, vielleicht sogar schockiert, aber auch viele neue Fans dazugewonnen. Für Nina Waßmundt ist aber vor allem dieser neue Weg, den Sting mit der Platte gegangen ist, ein Grund dafür, dass dieses Album ein echter Meilenstein geworden ist: "Das Album ist ein absolutes Meisterwerk in der Verschmelzung von Pop, Rock und Jazz! Musik schreibt immer dann Geschichte, wenn sie etwas Traditionelles aufbricht und weiterentwickelt und der Künstler was Eigenes dazu gibt und was ganz Neues schafft. Und genau das macht Sting hier." __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "The Dream Of The Blue Turtles" wird im Podcast gesprochen: (14:08) – "If You Love Somebody Set Them Free"(21:21) – "Love Is The Seventh Wave"(28:05) – "Russians"(42:45) – "Children's Crusade"(50:44) – "Moon Over Bourbon Street" __________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge: https://1.ard.de/sting-the-dream-of-the-blue-turtles __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

Celebrating 40 years of the Dire Straits album Brothers in Arms, and 75 years of Devo frontman Mark Mothersbaugh! (62 minutes)

1985 haben Mark Knopfler und seine Dire Straits das Album "Brothers In Arms" rausgebracht. Bis heute gilt das Album als eines der erfolgreichsten der Rockgeschichte. Mit Songs wie "Money For Nothing", "Walk Of Life", "Your Latest Trick" und natürlich dem Titelsong "Brothers In Arms" sind auf dem Album auch einige der größten Hits der Dire Straits vertreten. Für die Band rund um Gitarrenlegende Mark Knopfler war es schon das fünfte Studioalbum der Dire Straits. Und mit mehr als 30 Millionen verkauften Einheiten und Diamantauszeichnungen in Deutschland, Großbritannien und den USA zählt "Brothers in Arms" auch zu den kommerziell erfolgreichsten Rockalben der Geschichte. "Brothers In Arms" von den Dire Straits ist aber nicht nur das erfolgreichste Album von Mark Knopfler und Co., für SWR1 Musikredakteur Niels Berkefeld ist es auch das perfekteste Album der Band, mit Ausnahme eines Songs, erklärt er im Podcast. Aber "Brothers In Arms" ist nicht nur vom Songwriting ein absoluter Meilenstein, sondern auch von der Seite der technischen Produktion her. Damals war das Medium CD und digitale Musikproduktion noch sehr neu und die Dire Straits haben auf dieser Platte alle neuen Möglichkeiten der CD-Produktion ausgenutzt und das hatte kaum eine Gruppe und kaum eine Künstlerin oder ein Künstler vorher so gemacht. Einer der bekanntesten Hits des Albums ist natürlich "Money For Nothing" auf dem auch The-Police-Sänger Sting zu hören ist – ein absoluter Zufall. Sting war nämlich eigentlich nur in Montserrat gewesen, um die Dire Straits im Studio zu besuchen und mit ihnen zu Abendessen zu gehen. Die Inspiration zum Song "Money For Nothing" entstand in einem Elektrogeschäft als Mark Knopfler einige Arbeiter vor einer Fernsehwand beobachtet, wie sie sich darüber ärgern, dass sie so schwer schuften müssen und die Rockstars, die auf dem Musiksender MTV zu sehen sind, reich werden und die hübschen Mädchen bekommen – frei übersetzt: Die bekommen Kohle fürs Nichtstun! In den 80er-Jahren kam man nicht an diesem Album vorbei. "Es lag überall rum", sagt Dave Jörg aus der SWR1 Musikredaktion, was auch die unglaublichen Verkaufszahlen von über 30 Millionen Einheiten attestieren. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Brothers In Arms" wird im Podcast gesprochen: (10:57) – "So Far Away"(14:57) – "Money For Nothing"(32:39) – "Walk Of Life"(43:48) – "Brothers In Arms"(49:28) – "Your Latest Trick"__________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge: https://1.ard.de/dire-straits-brothers-in-arms __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

"First you need to know there are no swear words in this show. It was this week back in the 60s when the FBI released a letter stating that there were no curse words in the song Louie Louie. But people keep looking. This is a list of songs that were banned or otherwise maligned because someone was sure the singer was cursing. But there was no curse word. It is a long list."

"This week back in 2007 Sammy Hagar sold an 80 percent stake in his Cabo Wabo tequila for $80 million. Since then it seems every musician or band has their own line of booze. Here is a good long list and where you can buy it."
