Send us a message, so we know what you're thinking!The late Steve Harley was most famous for his 1975 hit Make Me Smile (Come Up and See Me), but there's much more to the story than one good single.  We look at the band's early albums and Steve Harley's career around and after that single and the band's break up.  As usual, Mick says their early stuff is way better than their later stuff!Our Album you Must Listen to Before You Die is “Tres Hombres”, ZZ Top's 1973 album containing the huge hit “La Grange”. Regular listeners might guess what we thought of the album, but let's not spoil the surprise!  We also look at Louder magazine's recent poll where their readers voted for Genesis' 10 best-ever songs.   Spoiler alert:  Only 2 of the selected songs are post-Peter Gabriel's departure.   For those interested, we covered Genesis in Series 2, Episode 15, and Peter Gabriel in Series 2, Episode 14 There's plenty here you may not have known.  Enjoy!  References: Jethro Tull, Curious Ruminant, Gene Simmons, Nick Cave, Flea, Genesis best of all time, Robert Dimery, Cancer, Cockney Rebel, The Human Menagerie, The Psychomodo, Diamond Dogs, For Your Pleasure, polio, The Rolling Stones, Jean-Paul Crocker, Stuart Elliott, Paul Jeffreys, Lockerbie, New Musical Express, Rock Australia Magazine, Sebastian, Mr. Soft, Cavaliers, Ritz, The Best Years of our Lives, Make Me Smile (Come up and See Me), Sounds, Francis Monkman, Here Comes the Sun, The Cockney Rebel – A Steve Harley Anthology, BBC Radio 2 Sounds of the 70s. Playlists: Episode playlist The Psychomodo Gene Symonds Weather Man

Everyone has heard of Leonard Cohen, but not so many know much about him.  With this episode, we look to give you a taste of Mr Cohen – his views on life, women and songwriting; his extraordinary influence on modern songwriting; his legacy, and, of course, “Hallelujah”!  A world that never had Leonard Cohen in it would be a much lesser place indeed. Jeff gives us his holiday report on a visit to the only Museum in the world dedicated to penises, whose prime exhibit is a plaster cast of Jimi Hendrix' tackle. (It's true!!) We give an update on our Ed Kuepper episode, with a report on his live concert in Sydney in September, which was fantastic! We take a quick look at a few of the icons we've lost so far this year including Tom Verlaine (Television), Burt Bacharach, Andy Rourke (The Smiths), Francis Monkman (Sky, 801), and Sinead O'Connor.  In honour of Sinead, our Album You Must Hear Before You Die is her “I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got” (1990), which we both agree is an absolute cracker of an album.  Haven't heard it?  The link is in the show notes. References:  Iceland, Icelandic Phallological Museum, Jimi Hendrix' penis, Cynthia Albritton, Cynthia Plaster Caster, Ed Kuepper, Steve Harwell, Smash Mouth, Tom Verlaine, Television, Burt Bacharach, Tim Bachman, Cliff Fish, Paper Lace, Gordon Lightfoot, Andy Rourke, Francis Monkman, 801, Tina Turner, Tony Bennett, Sinead O'Connor, Rodrigeuz, Robbie Robertson, Jimmy Buffett, Globite store  Sydney Airport, “1001 Albums You Must Hear before You Die”, Robert Dimery, I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got, “Nothing Compares to You”, The Young Ones, Alexei Sayle, Tom Waits, “There's a crack in everything / That's how the light gets in”, “The Future”, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Janis Joplin, Kris Kristofferson, “Chelsea Hotel #2”, “Tower of Song”, "Famous Blue Raincoat",  "Everybody Knows", Concrete Blonde, “Bird on a Wire”, Willie Nelson, “Hallelujah”  ___________________________________  Other References This episode's playlist I'm Your Man - Leonard Cohen Songs of Love and Hate - Leonard Cohen I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got - Sinead O'Connor Rare on Air - Amazon - Tori Amos/Leonard Cohen spoken word intro Rare on Air Vol 1 – all songs Ed Kuepper – Live Song List 21 Sep 23 Ed Kuepper - Live Sep 2023 The Young Ones – Leonard Cohen vampire reference YouTube Links Bon Jovi Hallelujah - O2 Arena June 24th 07   

Czy muzyka Billy Joela może pomóc w złapaniu zaginionej papużki? Który zespół muzyczny skorzystał (???) z usług sobowtóra w miejsce nieobecnego kolegi ze składu, i to bez jego wiedzy?W tym odcinku musieliśmy odwołać się nawet do wiedzy eksperckiej specjalnego gościa, w zakresie przepisów prawa z odwołaniem do… kinematografii

St. Louis Cardinals are in search of an identity that will match their colorful new manager. From 1980 to 1982, Whitey Herzog would serve as GM and would engage in some of the wildest transactions for his time. While he dealt superstars, slashed salaries, and brought in guys that played his kind of game, American labor found itself pitted against the anti-union bias of the Reagan administration. One union had emerged from the Long Seventies more powerful than its colleagues, and with it won emancipation and dignity for its members: The MLBPA. Led by Marvin Miller, the Player's Union would be begin a 16 year struggle for recognition and labor rights, changing the sport into the modern game that we have it today. While Herzog swapped big names between San Diego and Chicago, the players were readying for a showdown against the owners over free agency. Following the 1981 Strike, Herzog would finish arming a death star that would plague the NL for the next 5 years, this despite him never fully appreciating how the MLBPA set the stage for the Runnin' Redbirds to take place.

In this episode I look at the fate that has befallen those who have provided themselves and their movements as allies to the US imperialists. This is relevant not only to the fate of Zelensky but also to the latest selling out of the Kurds in Syria by the US. It is also something that has relevance to the current violence in Iran that is taking place in Iranian Kurdistan and the Balochi region in South East Iran, on the border with Pakistan. I also discuss the Soviet policy on national minorities and defend it against the misrepresentations of it that have come from Russian nationalists and western "marxists".

Hello once again everyone I'm your host Ray Shasho and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends. Thirty years on, old mates Steve Hogarth and Darryl Way, have collaborated on the single “Morpheus”, released on August 25th. The track is taken from Darryl's forthcoming album “The Rock Artist's Progress”; a unique concept and project created by legendary violinist Darryl Way that consists of an album and novel that are intrinsically linked together and sold as a bundle.

The novel, written by Charles Shorwell, is set against the backdrop of the musical revolution that started with the Beatles and begins in 1968, a year after ‘The Summer of Love' and follows the story of Daniel Luckham, a young classical pianist studying at the Royal College of Music. Seduced by the rock music scene and vibrant counterculture in London at that time, he contrives to leave college and pursue a career in ‘Rock'. But some bad decisions lead him down a dark and dangerous alley, populated by drug dealers, unscrupulous managers, and femme fatales. On his journey to fulfil his dreams, Daniel finds his integrity challenged, and the innocence of youth cruelly stripped away.

Produced by Wayne Hall, Jeffrey Crecelius and Preston Frazier I'm officially on leave but Mark and I had to comment on the storm around Ice Bridge Gate this week. If you haven't been on social media for some time you may have missed what happened so we aim to bring you up-to-speed on all the tortuous twists in this tale. Who wrote The Ice Bridge?Where did it come from?Why is a very similar tune on a 1980 film and Sale of the Century? Listen to the episode and let us know what you think! https://youtu.be/PbGEa7ju8bg https://youtu.be/BUW6lBS57Cc 1) Hi, in regard to my earlier tweet and to put the matter beyond any further debate…The Ice Bridge is sourced from a Francis Monkman composition “Dawn Of An Era” (Bruton Music) which I mistakenly assumed as being one of my own library pieces.— Geoffrey Downes (@asiageoff) July 27, 2021 https://twitter.com/asiageoff/status/1420007136751403011 Join us as a Patron!

Yesterday, Francis Monkman's response to Yes fan Dan Roth regarding the similarities between "The Ice Bridge" and his own song "The Dawn of an Era" made the rounds. After responding to a listener's email, we discussed our thoughts about Monkman's response and the resolution to the whole situation.

A new Yes song titled "The Ice Bridge" dropped on Friday! On this episode of Yesshift, we talk about our initial reactions to the song, read quotes from the band members about the song, and read off a few fan reactions. After all that, we address the weirdness that has been pointed out regarding similarities to "The Dawn of an Era," which appeared on Francis Monkman's album Energism. We do not have a firm stance, but we go over the confusion and the info that is out there that may potentially shed a bit of light on what's going on. As we say, more info needs to come out to clear stuff up, and this is just our reporting of what's out there and our reactions to it all on Saturday.

Episode 49   Computer Music Murmurs in the UK: Peter Zinovieff and EMS   Playlist Peter Zinovieff, “Agnus Dei (Excerpt)” from Electronic Calendar - The EMS Tapes (2015 Space Age Recordings). Early sound sampling, circa 1968. Note the briefness of the digital samples of the voice. 5:33 Peter Zinovieff, “January Tensions” from Cybernetic Serendipity Music (1968 ICA). Zinovieff's notes, from the album: “Computer composed and performed. This piece is very much for computer both in its realization and composition. The rules are straightforward. The computer may begin by improvising slowly on whatever material is firs chooses. However, once the initial choices are made then these must influence the whole of the rest of the composition. The original sounds must occasionally be remembered and illustrated but a more and more rigid structure is imposed on the randomness. The piece was electronically realized and composed in real time by an 8K PDP8/S and electronic music peripherals.” 9:48 Harrison Birtwistle and Peter Zinovieff, “Chronometer” (1975 Argo). "Chronometer", for electronic tape, was composed in 1971, and realized by Peter Zinovieff at EMS Putney. From the liner notes: “Chronometer is entirely made up from the sounds of clock mechanisms which have been computer-analyzed and regenerated onto 8 tracks (reduced in this recording to two.)” Air and contact microphones were used to collect sounds from widely different sources, Big Ben being a primary one. The program used to reinterpret the graphic and numerical music score was MUSYS by EMS. 24:19 Audio Past Present & Future - Presented with Audio Magazine (1972, IPC Magazines flexi-disc). A flexi-disc narrated by Richard Baker that was produced in EMS studios and includes a snipper of “A Lollipop for Papa” by Peter Zinovieff, various synthesized instrumental examples, and an excerpt of “Ultra-Vivaldi” by Francis Monkman of Curved Air. 6:48 Curved Air, “Ultra-Vivaldi” from Phantasmagoria (1972 Warner Brothers). Francis Monkman playing the EMS Synthi 100. Recorded at EMS studios. 1:31 Curved Air, “Whose Shoulder Are You Looking Over Anyway” from Phantasmagoria (1972 Warner Brothers). Francis Monkman playing the EMS Synthi 100. Recorded at EMS studios. This track consists of tapes of Sonja's voice analyzed and processed by a PDP8/L computer and a Synthi 100 synthesizer. The final tapes were edited and prepared for performance by Francis Monkman and Robert Carvell. This is a good example of sound sampling that is more advanced than heard on the earlier track, “Agnus Dei.” 3:31 Peter Zinovieff, “A Lollipop For Papa” from Electronic Calendar - The EMS Tapes (2015 Space Age Recordings). From 1974. 6:26 Peter Zinovieff, “Raasay Digitised” from Electronic Calendar - The EMS Tapes (2015 Space Age Recordings). Even more voice sampling, blended deftly with electronic sounds. Circa 1975. 2:20 Peter Zinovieff, “Now's The Time To Say Goodbye” from Electronic Calendar - The EMS Tapes (2015 Space Age Recordings). . Circa 1975. 4:11 Background music: Peter Zinovieff and Alan Sutcliffe, “ZASP Parts 1 To 3” from Electronic Calendar - The EMS Tapes (2015 Space Age Recordings). A more sophisticated example of early music programming by Alan Sutcliffe using a Dutch computer, the ICL 1905 made by International Computers Limited (ICL). 5:11   Opening and closing sequences voiced by Anne Benkovitz. Additional opening, closing, and other incidental music by Thom Holmes. For additional notes, please see my blog Noise and Notations.

Episode 31 Electronic Literature The Marriage of Electronic Music, Poetry, and Literature   Playlist Luciano Berio, "Thema (Omaggio A Joyce)," from Orient-Occident/Momenti-Omaggio A Joyce/Continuo/Transition 1 (1967 Philips). Composed by Luciano Berio at the RAI studio in Milan. Vocals, Cathy Berberian. The piece dates from 1958-59. An exploration of editing and tape composition with the voice as a key source of audio material. This is an interpretative reading of the poem "Sirens" from chapter 11 of the novel Ulysses by James Joyce. This release on the Philips Prospective 21e Siècle is shorter than the one released around the same time on the Turnabout label in America. It omits the spoken sequence at the beginning where Berberian recites the words prior to them being manipulated on tape. John Cage/David Tudor, "Side 3" excerpt from Indeterminacy: New Aspect of Form in Instrumental And Electronic Music (1959 Folkways). John Cage reads previously prepared stories and anecdotes, David Tudor performs electronic music at the same time with no Earthly connection between the two. This was a long-standing performance practice of theirs and I saw them do this several times. John Cage, "Part One (To Line 220)" from Roaratorio: An Irish Circus On Finnegans Wake (1992 Mode), excerpt, for speaker, Irish musicians and 62-track tape. Speaker, John Cage. Production: WDR, Köln; Süddeutscher Rundfunk, Stuttgart; Katholieke Radio Omroep, Hilversum; Technical cooperation: IRCAM, Paris. First transmission: 22 October 1979, WDR3-Hörspielstudio. This score is a means for translating any book into a performance without actors, a performance which is both literary and musical or one or the other. In this case, the book was Finnegans Wake by James Joyce. The text of Roaratorio was published separately as Writing for the Second Time Through Finnegans Wake. This was part of the evolution of Cage's interest in creating works of text for performance with music and other activities. It further evolved into his use of texts by Henry David Thoreau for which he used chance processes to derive a text for solo vocal performance. Shakespeare, excerpt, (1962 Odhams Books Ltd.). BBC radioplay production with musique concrète by Desmond Leslie. King Henry is played by Richard Burton. Electronic music provided on tape for a set of Shakespeare play productions. This short. 2 and a half-minute segment is from Act IV, Scene 3 and gives you an idea of how the sound effects was joined with the dialog. This was a common outlet for electronic music in the UK. Shackleton, “Music For The Quiet Hour, Part 2,” excerpt, from Music For The Quiet Hour (2012 Woe To The Septic Heart!). Vocals, words (poetry), Vengeance Tenfold; Composer, producer, A. Gerth, K. Biswas, Sam Shackleton. A collaboration between producer Shackleton and vocalist Vengeance Tenfold. Beats, bass and rhythm patterns provide a backdrop for some stark poetry. This is a portion of a longer work that whose overall length is about an hour. Lily Greenham, “Traffic” from Lingual Music (2007 Paradigm Discs). Reissue of text-sound works made by Danish concrete poet Lily Greenham, probably between 1972-75. Hugh Davies is credited with assisting on the electronics for this work. Voice: Lily Greenham. Anne Clark, "Swimming" and "An Ordinary Life" from The Sitting Room (1982 Red Flame). Clark is a foremost British poet who fuses her texts with electronic music. This was the first of her albums. Words, Keyboards, Electronic Percussion, Water Percussion, Anne Clark; Guitar, Effects, Voice, Gary Mundy; Keyboards, Domonic Appleton, Patrik Fitzgerald; Keyboards, Electronic Percussion, Andrea Laschetti. Rick Wakeman, “The Journey,” excerpt, from Journey to the Center of the Earth (1974 A&M). Recorded in concert at The Royal Festival Hall London on Friday January 18th 1974. Synthesizers and other keyboards, Rick Wakeman; Narrator, David Hemmings; drums, Barney James; guitar, Mike Egan; accompanied by the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by David Measham. Alan Parsons Project, "The Raven" from Tales of Mystery and Imagination - Edgar Allan Poe (1976 Charisma). Words from the tale of the same name by Poe. The Harmony Vocoder heard on "The Raven" was invented and built by EMI Central Research Laboratories.Keyboards, Alan Parsons, Andrew Powell, Billy Lyall, Christopher North, Eric Woolfson, Francis Monkman; Composed by Alan Parsons, Andrew Powell, and Eric Woolfson. Silver Apples, "Dust" from Silver Apples (1968 Kapp). "INSTRUCTIONS: Play Twice Before Listening." Composed and Arranged by Dan Taylor and Simeon; Percussion, Dan Taylor; Oscillators, mixers, electronic gear (The Simeon), Simeon; Vocals, Dan Taylor, Simeon. Alice Shields, " Study For Voice And Tape" from Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center 1961-1973 (1998 New World Records). Recorded Voice, Buchla synthesizer, poem by Alice Shields. Ronald Perera, "Three Poems of Gunter Grass," part 1, “Gleisdreieck" from Music And Words (1980 CRI. Ronald Perera, electronic music on tape created in the Smith College Electronic Music Studio; soprano, Elsa Charlston; Conductor, Richard Pittman. John Hill, "Europa" from Six Moons Of Jupiter (2009 Finders Keepers). Recorded at Sigma Sound, Philadelphia, January-August 1970, but I don't think it was ever released.
