https://www.youtube.com/live/qowvTjMPyGc?si=nwSTUA-EGA5MD8L3 The Story of 1984: How Van Halen's Biggest Album Became a Rock Masterpiece When Eddie Van Halen first introduced Jump to the band, the reaction was far from enthusiastic. David Lee Roth, in particular, balked, arguing that Eddie was a guitar hero, not a keyboard player. However, producer Ted Templeman immediately recognized its potential, calling it a “stone-cold hit.” That moment of skepticism turned to triumph as Jump became Van Halen's only #1 hit, propelling their 1984 album into rock history. 1984 wasn't just another album—it was Van Halen's magnum opus. Released in a year symbolized by George Orwell's dystopian novel, the album instead became the soundtrack to a carefree, hedonistic era. Eddie Van Halen's groundbreaking blend of guitar mastery and keyboard innovation defined the album, which dominated charts, airwaves, and hearts. The Legacy of 1984 A commercial juggernaut, 1984 earned RIAA Diamond certification for selling over 10 million copies in the U.S. alone. It remains one of the best-selling rock albums of the 1980s, rivaled in the band's catalog only by their 1978 debut. Its tight 33-minute runtime delivered four charting singles: Jump (#1), Panama (#13), I'll Wait (#13), and Hot for Teacher (#56). Even deep cuts like Top Jimmy, Drop Dead Legs, and House of Pain showcased the band's fiery creativity. The album opened with 1984, an instrumental synth piece that set the tone for Eddie's vision of a brave new world. This wasn't just an album—it was a statement. The Road to Stardom By the early 1980s, Van Halen was already a top touring act. Their 1982 Hide Your Sheep tour sold out all 83 North American dates, and their South American debut introduced them to thousands of new fans. In 1983, their headline performance at the US Festival's Heavy Metal Day drew 375,000 fans and set a record with a $1.5 million payday. Eddie's growing celebrity status elevated the band further. His marriage to actress Valerie Bertinelli brought Van Halen into mainstream households, while his iconic guitar solo on Michael Jackson's Beat It created an unexpected crossover between rock, pop, and R&B. Building 1984 Frustrated by the rushed recording of Diver Down and its reliance on cover songs, Eddie sought more control. He built a home studio, 5150, named after the California police code for a mentally disordered person. With engineer Donn Landee, Eddie created a space where he could experiment on his terms. The 5150 studio became the birthplace of 1984. Eddie's fascination with keyboards took center stage, especially with the Oberheim OB-Xa synthesizer. While synths had appeared on earlier Van Halen albums, they were often disguised as distorted guitars. On 1984, tracks like Jump and I'll Wait embraced their synth-driven identity while maintaining the band's hard rock roots. Eddie's guitar innovations also shone brightly. He used a rare 1958 Gibson Flying V for tracks like Hot for Teacher and Drop Dead Legs, while Steve Ripley's stereo guitars added unique textures to songs like Top Jimmy. The album balanced pop hooks with progressive rock influences, showcasing Eddie's genius. The Breakthrough and the Fallout When 1984 was released, Van Halen had reached their peak. The album's success was undeniable, but tensions within the band were rising. Eddie's increasing control over the creative process clashed with Roth's vision. While 1984 cemented their place as rock icons, it also foreshadowed Roth's departure and the end of Van Halen's original lineup. A Masterpiece That Endures Four decades later, 1984 remains a defining moment in rock history. It's a testament to Eddie Van Halen's relentless innovation and the band's ability to push boundaries. From the infectious synth riff of Jump to the hard-hitting grooves of Panama and Hot for Teacher, the album captures a band at their peak—fearless, ambitious, and unforgettable.

Episode 73. Host Troy Saunders interviews the Queen of Sophisticated Soul, Candace Woodson. They start by talking about how a small-town girl from Kentucky became a queen. Candace explains that she grew up in a family that loved all genres of music. She went to school and learned about the music industry while continuing to develop her craft to pursue her epic award-winning career. Candace wants everyone to know that she is that little girl holding a brush in the mirror, singing those great songs where you need to know every note and how to express what makes the song special. Candace Woodson has a lifelong passion for performing and a talent for resilience she calls “stick to it-ness”.Candace shares amazing advice given to her by Pam Sawyer, the songwriter who penned “Love Child” for the Supremes. Sawyer told her, “You want to find a song that when somebody is in the car, that they don't get out until they hear all of that song until the end. You don't want a song that when someone is driving to the store and the radio is in the middle of the song, they get out of the car anyway. You want the song where they have to listen to the end.” That's an amazing lesson for everyone looking for a career in music.Candace's chart-topping singles include “The Answer Is No,” a defiant female empowerment ballad. “The Answer Is No” hit #1 on the UK Soul Chart Top 30 and has continued to receive airplay on Smooth Jazz Radio as well as other top stations. “Midas Touch (Ooh Ooh),” which hit the #1 spot on the UK Soul Charts, is an up-tempo track perfect to help get the party started.Another hit for Candace is “Free,” a funky old-school dance anthem that conveys hope and positivity in the wake of adversity. This is a message she conveys stemming from her own experience and feeling after receiving her last cancer treatment at the Medical University of South Carolina. With the help of UK promoter Steve Ripley, who has worked on hits for Diana Ross, Luther Vandross, Maxwell, and Jody Watley, “Free” rose to #12 on the UK Soul Chart Top 30.This interview is a joy, with so much fun and happiness. That's what music is all about.Listen and subscribe to the BAAS Entertainment Podcast on Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Deezer, iHeartRadio, Pandora, Podchaser, Spotify, Stitcher and TuneIn. “Hey, Alexa.

The Deaf and hard of hearing community is diverse. There are variations such as how a person becomes Deaf and their level of hearing, but also conditions that combine sight and hearing loss such as Usher syndrome, which is under the Deafblind umbrella. Steve Ripley and Edan Chapman share their personal experiences of being DeafBlind and Ushers, and discuss the need for greater acceptance and understanding in the Deaf community and wider society.

Con este programa culminamos la temporada número 47 de TOMA UNO y no sabemos si tendrá continuación a partir de septiembre. En los últimos 18 años, nunca nos habíamos tomado vacaciones en estas fechas... hasta el presente. Tendremos todo el mes de Agosto para preparar una próxima temporada a conciencia, aunque seguiremos contactados a través de las redes sociales. Nos hemos enterado de la muerte durante la pasada semana de Jamie Oldaker, socio fundador y batería de los Tractors, además de un respetado músico de sesión para artistas como Eric Clapton, Bob Seger o Leon Russell, entre otros muchos. Nativo de Tulsa, en Oklahoma, formó los Tractors junto al trístemente desaparecido Steve Ripley. Nos dejaron canciones inolvidables como "Baby Likes to Rock It" en 1994, a cuya presentación oficial asistimos aquel año en Nashville durante la celebración de la Fan Fair. Hace 15 años, el ahora desaparecido Jamie Oldaker publicó en el sello Concord el álbum Mad Dogs & Okies, donde cio todo el protagonismo a invitados tan brillantes como Clapton, J.J. Cale, Ray Benson, Vince Gill, Willie Nelson o Tony Joe White. Era un homenaje a la herencia musical de su estado natal, Oklahoma, y por lo tanto no podía faltar el legendario J.J. Cale, con su voz y su guitarra en “Daylight”, un tema propio que ejemplariza a la perfección el Tulsa Sound. Es evidente que Margo Price no deja indiferente a nadie. Así ocurrió con sus críticas directas a la administración Trump y ahora la amplitud de miras de su nuevo álbum, That's How Rumors Get Started. La artista de Aledo, en Illinois, sigue aventurandose por todos los caminos que se abren a su paso y tampoco ha dejado fuera el legado que Muscle Shoals ha dejado en la escena de la Americana. Esas influencias clásicas que van mucho más allá de Nashville se reflejan en "Prisoner of The Highway", donde habla de los músicos en gira y en el que el Southern rock y el góspel se confunden, conformando uno de los cortes más sobresalientes de un álbum que mira con cariño hacia el rock clásico. Los que se consideran más puristas ya han levantado la voz y las quejas. El susto al saber que Sturgill Simpson era el co-productor aún no se lo han quitado de encima. Ethan Johns, un productor curtido al lado de nombres tan eclécticos y sonoros como Ray LaMontagne, Paul McCartney o Kings of Leon, ha sido el encargado de trabajar al lado de Mary Chapin Carpenter, a la que se llevó hasta los estudios Real World de Peter Gabriel en Bath, al suroeste de Inglaterra, para grabar The Dirt And The Stars, el nuevo álbum de la cantante compositora de Nueva Jersey, que explora los desafíos del presente desde una visión íntima y personal. Mary Chapin compuso estas canciones en su granja de Virginia antes de la pandemia, y deja momentos tan intensos como “Secret Keepers”, un recordatorio de aquellas experiencias irremplazables que nunca desaparecen. Que las cicatrices desaparezcan no significa que lo haga el dolor que las produjeron. The Dirt And The Stars supone la primera colección de nuevas canciones desde que hace cuatro años publicó The Things That We Are Made Of. En 2018 lanzó junto a Ethan Johns y en los estudios de Peter Gabriel Sometimes Just The Sky que, excepto el tema que lo dio nombre, era una celebración de sus 30 años de carrera discográfica con nuevas versiones de algunas de sus canciones más queridas. Lori McKenna, la compositora y vocalista de Stoughton, en el estado de Massachusetts, se mantiene en la senda de construir grandes canciones que profundizan en sus experiencias personales y que vienen a ser, en cierto modo, una versión femenina de lo que puedan suponer Jason Isbell o Sturgill Simpson. En el tema central de su nuevo álbum, The Balladeer, recién editado, nos encontramos con el temor de que el cantar sobre una relación feliz impida, precisamente, el reconocimiento que suele tenerse por las composiciones que describen relaciones dolorosas y desgraciadas. Parece ser casi una norma en Courtney Marie Andrews que no haya demasiado optimismo en sus propuestas, y en este séptimo registro se mantiene la tónica. Desde el delicioso vals de apertura, "Burlap String", hasta el final no hay una sola nota de más y su voz persiste en el convencimiento más absoluto. La joven cantante y compositora de Arizona que cumplió 29 años el pasado diciembre ha querido que su nuevo trabajo, Old Flowers, sea precisamente un disco de ruptura, con el riesgo que suponen que exista una cantidad ingente de discos que tratan sobre esas tensiones emocionales. La autocompasión puede resultar empalagosa y siempre estás en el difícil equilibrio de que una canción sea un terrible cliché terapéutico o que se convierta en un clásico intemporal. Hace cuatro años debutaba un cuarteto de Sheridan, en Wyoming, llamado The Two Tracks con un disco homónimo que se convirtió en el mejor álbum del año para la emisora pública de aquel estado. Aquello supuso que al año siguiente Will Kimbrough quisiera hacer su presentación como productor con Postcard Town y que ahora persista en esa labor con Cheers to Solitude, su nuevo disco, con un sonido familiar enraizado en la tradición que supone un paso significativo hacia adelante con respecto a sus propuestas previas. Se editará a mediados de agosto y fue grabado en el mítico The Butcher Shoppe de Nashville, muy pocos meses antes de que se viera obligado a cerrar para reconstruirlo. Un tema como “All Women Are Healers” es en cierto modo un himno de apoyo a las mujeres, inspirado en el título de un libro de curación natural. El protagonismo de ellas en los cambios y la conciencia de combatir ciertos los estándares sociales y prejuicios a los que las mujeres aún se enfrentan en el mundo está muy presente. Con sus raíces en Texas, Evan Ogden se inspira en los clásicos que escuchó por primera vez en los discos de su abuelo, pero su interés está en que las nuevas generaciones también receptivas a esas propuestas que como en “Thunderstorms” provoca una tormenta emocional parecida a las muchas que van apareciendo lentamente a nuestro alrededor. Volvemos a encontrarnos con reflexiones muy honestas y personales de un joven músico de Austin que descubrió muy pronto lo significativo que fue el country de los años 1940, aquel que plantó las semillas para apreciar el impacto de una música conmovedora. Omnivore sigue dando sorpresas a los coleccionistas con ediciones puntuales que recuperan tesoros inesperados e inéditos. Esta vez se trata de escarbar en los archivos del trío América y conformar Heritage II: Demos/Alternate Takes 1971-1976 como una continuación del primer volumen publicado en 2017. En esta ocasión las canciones se han centrado, excepto las dos primeras, en dos álbumes producidos por George Martin: Holiday de 1974 y Hideaway del 76. El sexto trabajo de América fue Hideaway, grabado en el Caribou Ranch de Nederland, en el estado de Colorado cuando América estaba culminando su carrera en Warner Bros. Allí encontramos "Amber Cascades", una canción de Dewey Bunnell con una letra abstracta de tonos espirituales cuyo arrope instrumental evoca el soleado sur de California bajo el sol. La mezcla alternativa que podemos escuchar por primera vez de su tercera toma enfatiza el carácter de la composición en sí misma, sin las armonías vocales ni la orquestación que escuchamos en su edición original. Hace exactamente 45 años, los Eagles alcanzaban el primer puesto de las listas con el álbum One Of These Nights. Fue el aldabonazo definitivo en aquel verano de 1975, consiguiendo con él un Grammy como mejor grupo de pop tras permanecer durante cinco semanas en la cima de las listas generales. Pero Bernie Leadon abandonaría la banda en diciembre de ese mismo año al no comulgar con la dirección musical tomada. El álbum One of These Nights nos dejó aún cierto protagonismo de Bernie Leadon, que participó en la composición de hasta tres de las nueve piezas del trabajo, incluyendo "Hollywood Waltz", un tema que pasó demasiado inadvertido y en el que compartía autoría con Don Henley, Glenn Frey y su hermano, Tom Leadon, que había sido socio fundador de Mudcrutch, la primitiva banda de Tom Petty. Tras tocar el bajo con Linda Ronstadt, se unió a Silver, un grupo de country-rock californiano. En 2007, Tom Petty volvió a contar con su tocayo en la reforma de Mudcrutch. Sin abandonar a la banda californiana, el pasado miércoles, Don Henley cumplía 73 años, desde su nacimiento en la tejana Gilmer y crecer en Linden. Militó en los Four Speeds, que pasaron a llamarse Felicity, luego estuvo en Shiloh y de ahí a los Eagles. Por primera vez en su carrera, Don Henley logró hace cinco temporadas que uno de sus álbumes en solitario alcanzara la cima de las listas. Cass County, su último trabajo, debutó en el No. 1 de las de country. El artista tejano regresó de manera decidida a los sonidos de sus comienzos con un álbum que rezuma tradición en el fondo y nl las formas. La estrecha colaboración entre Don Henley y Stan Lynch, socio fundador de los Heartbreakers de Tom Petty, fue vital en la composición de muchos de los nuevos temas, pero en canciones de la categoría de “Waiting Tables”, posiblemente la mejor de aquel trabajo, participaron también Timothy B. Schmit y Steuart Smith en la creación y contó con Jamey Johnson en los coros. “Take It Easy” de los Eagles fue la canción con la que comenzamos la primera temporada de TOMA UNO allá por 1973 y es la que hoy escuchamos para cerrar la número 47 del programa. Aunque no estaremos en antena, seguiremos en las redes sociales y nos encantaría que fuera posible vernos en los conciertos, porque la música sigue siendo cultura y apoyamos una #cultura segura. Confiamos en volver a primeros de Septiembre en la nueva temporada de Radio 3. Nos encantaría seguir cumpliendo años juntos. Escuchar audio
