Fair enough that Brazil has celebrated the birth centenary of Noel Rosa and Adoniran Barbosa. now in 2010. But the Brazilian music is so rich that these two were not the only great composers of the MPB of this season, we can also remember Custódio Mesquita and Nassar.
Antonio Gabriel Nassar, died in Rio in 1996 was not "only" co-authored with MPB MPB classics as uppercase "Allah-O-La" (with Haroldo Lobo), "World De Zinc" (Wilson Batista) and "Taiwan" (with J. Ruy); Nassar is also one of best cartoonists in the world, and its style, minimal synthetic (it was said that he drew "logo we") graced many publications and record covers the years 1930 to 1990. And his work as an illustrator is well remembered in the exhibition Nassar - 100 Years , the Federal Justice Cultural Center (Avenida Rio Branco 241, Centro, Rio de Janeiro), 3261-2563 55 21 headphones, Tuesday to Sunday until 6 February, from 12 to 19h, with free admission.

read what this man pulled from the "system" is enough to feel chills every time to listen. We made the price and went through our country in difficult times.
will repeat the text I wrote in my only post for the Elevators for which sincerely regretted.
"...... a long time thinking if I should upload some Lp of a 13th Floor Elevators due Adventure health Roky Erickson. Fortunately fully recover health in accordance with what I've read, regaining all rights reserved. I believe in them will are the rights of the disks.
is reasonable to tell me, well my friend so many discs staged, the "hijacking" of Rocky will hurt; I tell him that although he is right but in the case of Erickson to feel differently after the system has tried everything possible to eliminate the dielyontas most valuable commodity is the man. Health. As it became involved and the huge Arthur Lee of Love years later (his guarded I) only sent to this prison.
Anyway, even the "pirates" have some inhibitions. Consider that this is one of them I for some people who appreciate that "walked" the music much further than others useless enjoying privileges and money with a tail ... "

This was the decade when music wasent really connected with money. Music was to make a point, make a change. But we can all hope that music in the future will be like this.

1. The Avant-Garde was an American psychedelic pop group formed by Chuck Woolery and Elkin "Bubba" Fowler in 1967. They released three singles on Columbia Records in 1967 and 1968, backed by different session musicians on each release: "Yellow Beads", "Naturally Stoned" (which hit #40 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in mid 1968) [1] , and "Fly With Me". Despite the success of "Naturally Stoned", the group disbanded after "Fly With Me" and never released a full album.
2. This band is best known for Naturally Stoned which hit the Billboard chart at No. 40. and is best described as orchestrated 'psychedelic pop' (the lyrics may be psychedelic but the music is pop) with the backing sounding like a James Bond-type movie theme. It is the flip side which has been compiled however: Honey and Gall resurfacing on Psychedelic Unknowns Vol. 8 (LP & CD) and being an unusual and captivating hippie-psychedelic effort.
Yellow Beads is also dreamy acoustic hippie-pop in their unique style. The final 45 reverts to more standard orchestrated pop format effort on Fly With Me but is rescued by the electrified folk-pop flip.
All their material was composed by B. Fowler or C. Woolery, who it turns out is none other than Chuck Woolery, who would later become one of America's top game show hosts-- he was the original emcee of "Wheel of Fortune" before adding his brand of smarminess to the matchmaking "Love Connection".
And because the reason for the Natural Stoned and to quote the lyrics.
It seems the days We spent together All too quickly fade away And even now My lonely mind is full Of thoughts of yesterday
The say grow up Put your mind on What you have to do But I know I can never Make it, baby, without you
[CHORUS] I can feel a good vibration When I put my mind on you alone I can get a real sensation Feel like I'm naturally stoned Naturally stoned
And now they say It's time for me to face The troubled world alone But I know I can never do it While I'm standing on my own
There's just one thing that They do not seem to understand Why can't they get it Through their heads I need a helping hand
UNDERSTAND, BUT (OR THAT'S IT) SHE WANT ME TO DRAW
I had the privilege of knowing Vannucchi Luciana Farias singing and playing country music in the first few sessions of the Netflix Community, and liked it even more when he learned shortly later, she is also a designer, and good. Even now I have chosen to be the cover artist for my next album, The Microsambas , coming out in February. Yes, it's her turn, after I have given the same distinction at other major artists as friends and Drago (author of the cover of my Encyclopedia of Country Music ) and Cassian wheel (which made the cover of the LP The Courage Of Ayrton Mugnaini Jr. ). Well, just get to her blog, Design Luciana, nor have I need to agree with me.
Indeed, even "trees" as I benefit from travel, and this November was "viajandão" the interior of Sao Paulo with a tour of the Archive of Brazilian Rock. A nice surprise was to learn that a member of the Culture of Secretariat, Sao Jose dos Campos is also a lyricist, this is Ares Nilson, who has can tell who has written compositions, thanks to God and local singer and composer Alessandro Zamah, who recorded a CD in 2009 now independent Waterfall Hunter, who well deserves to be discovered by the stations that play smooth pop that since the year of 1970 goes by MPB. I made a
medleyzinho four partnerships and Ares Zamah this record: roquezinho erasmocarleano "Que Tal?" and the ballads "Plastic Heart", "Sublime" and "Music." Yes, my intention is to motivate you to go behind the disc, they can even talk to himself Zamah: alessandrozamah@gmail.com, apart from visiting his My Space page, www.myspace.com / alessandrozamah
(No, nothing to do with Barbie, or a Girl or not, though the person in question is also quite charming. )
On Thursday evening, December 2, had the pleasure of watching a show in Sao Paulo that Edria Barbieri honored Elis Regina. There was a "cover" faithful - it does not Maria Rita (and thankfully, I'm even happy for Maria Rita to be finding their own way and with quality), although it followed the original tone of "Menace" Edria added much of himself same, including imitating percussion with his mouth - and the instrumental accompaniment, only keyboard with piano sound, electric bass and drums, played a large decrease similarities (though I have remembered one of my phases Tracks of Elis, where she worked with the Zimbo Trio).
Ah, yes: while Elis was an artist "vertical", working in a specialty only in the case of the singer (and not just call it the "greatest Brazilian singer of all time" for her to have at least one major "competitor" , Elizeth Cardoso), Edria is "horizontal", ie spreads in a variety of vocations, plus singer - playing popular and classical music! - Is also a guitarist, bassist, percussionist, songwriter and actress theater and cinema. And since this is my blog, I say a mouthful which I am honored to have participated in some of her concerts and recordings and to be her neighbor in the Netflix Community.
A small sample of the versatility of the chick is here, playing "Illusion" of Canadian Julie Brezden; note that all sounds are produced by it - and that only the quality of the footage is homemade.
The Transatlantic Train - You're Bringing Me Down / The Train / She Was A Lady (1967)
Flea at straws. This actually was looking for hours trying to find information on this group. Neither reason a picture of the disc as the only I found is that once the June 1 in 1971 (Hayward Daily Review May 27, 1971), will be playing with two other "popular" group. Even what appear the collection Crystalize Your Mind do not say anything more than what I found.
From then did a "light" that seems to diskakiopos and notes for the group. Stimulus for carving on all the kommatara You're Bringing Me Down, but something which reminds me that I can find. Known sound damn.
started as The Dutch Masters and became The Transatlantic Train.
If there are survivors from the group and we discover, perhaps no two words say.
The Dutch Masters
Bob Buccelli Steve Bayard Tom Mullenix Dennis Brown Tony Costa
A folk-rock band from Monterey, they have one previously unreleased cut from 1966 titled "In My Way" on the Big Beat comp Good Things Are Happening.
The Transatlantic Train
Transatlantic Train were from the Monterey area. The group were originally The Dutch Masters. They changed their name to Transatlantic Train sometime in 1966. The line-up of the group was probably Bob Buccelli, Steve Bayard, Tom Mullenix, Dennis Brown and Tony Costa.
Transatlantic Train recorded at Golden State Recorders in San Francisco in early 1967 and released one single later in that year. The group continued performing with varying personnel until 1969 but did not release any further recordings.

The Bondsmen - Our Time to Try / I See the Light (1967)
Good winter ... finally.
light weekend, pending the cold in 10 days that is possible (well, maybe see literally a bright day), with time to search the known hideouts of any good song.
The Moderator of upload today found three years ago in an endless and highly instructive garagehangover and I liked it. In the meantime I noticed the comments on the suspension where months around popping one of the members of the group giving information, some of them and copied here.
I'm Ken Haywood, the guitarist for the Bondsmen. This site has me thinking about the period between 1964 and 1970. Very interesting times and music.
Some thoughts on The Bondsmen... The 1967-68 lineup was:
Jim Bowen - bass & backup vocals - Jim lives in Charlotte, NC. We keep in touch and see each other on occasion. He played in classic rock bands around Charlotte in the 70's and 80's. I don't know if he's still playing now. Jim had the Hagstrom III bass that matched my guitar...cool.
Tim Hutchinson - trumpet & backup vocals - I haven't seen or heard from Tim since probably 1970. At that time I think he was in school and teaching music in Greensboro, NC.
Phillip Pearson - drums & flugelhorn - We did a version of "Love Is Blue" w/ trumpet and flugelhorn. "Phil Lee" lives in Nashville, TN and has had a successful music career. He has recorded a couple of highly acclaimed CD's in the folk-country-rock genre. It's been several years since we've talked.
Archie Thomas - vocals - I always considered Archie to be the band's main attraction. He was a great singer and everybody loved him. In the mid 70's, I recruited Archie to sing with the Castaways, a local R&B/Beach group. He sang with us for a short time, but work and family had to come first. What a great vocalist and good friend.
Gene Galligan - keyboards and vocals - Probably the one guy in the bunch that I figured would NOT be involved in music later in life. I had to beg him to play!!! I still remember Gene doing "The Ballad of Ira Hayes" one night..cool. Gene was more classically inclined so I can remember trying to get him to simplify and stay out of the guitar's way! Just kidding... We email and keep in touch.
John Santa - Guitarist and songwriter - Although never an "on stage" member, he was a true inspiration and great friend. I knew that the UNC Journalism School gig would do weird things to ya...Bluegrass...did you say Bluegrass? John, if you read this, we really have to get together so you can straighten me out...
Ken Haywood - Guitarist & vocals - I have been playing guitar and bass since 1963. I've done the Garage Rock to Soul/Disco to country Rock back to R&B Dance and currently play in a Society/Wedding band. Can you imagine playing Sinatra's "The Way You Look Tonight" and then 10 seconds later ripping into Jeremiah Was A Bullfrog? Holy crap! Been full circle and enjoyed most of it...
After Jim, Tim, Gene, and John left for college, The Bondsmen regrouped and continued performing for about another year and a half. The band also logged more time in the studio. This time a Raleigh, NC facility called Audiophonics. However, there were no singles released. We did get some local radio play of our "Got To Be Myself" recording written by Hubert Deans.
The 1969-70 lineup was: Archie Thomas - vocals Phillip Pearson - drums Jim Ward - bass Hubert Deans - keyboards Ken Haywood - guitar

I am john santa, the writer of Our Time To Try. great to hear from mike hollander as well. gene and i have had some communication and he is still playing music as is ken i believe. archie i haven't seen in years but he was not singing or performing at all the last time i heard from him which is a shame cause boy he was a great vocalist and performer. i have no idea what happened to jim (bass) or tim (trumpet) or if they're even still playing music but i hope so. phil pearson is, in fact, performing under the stage name phil lee and was at one point doing some stuff (i believe) with or around neil young and some of his people. i occasionally hear from phil as he is in town to see his daughter, but it has been years since the last contact. after college i released an album of original material on Moonlight Records called (as mike hollander mentioned) "Rainmaker" by the John Santa Band which consisted of myself, john ballew, steve wyrick, whitney french and shepp wasdell. It did fairly well at the time and can now be found in bargain cut out bins all across this great country. (so much for fame and fortune.) i have remained in the music business and write music for film and TV. i play about 18 instruments now and the book that gene galligan mentions is about my foray into the world of Bluegrass music called "Bluegrass Is My Second Language: A Year In The Life Of An Accidental Bluegrass Musician." it is available at www.bluegrassbook.com and has gotten very good reviews (i am proud to say) and has sold so well there will be a second edition out in mid 2008. in response to it's popularity, we are currently at work putting the book on CD (no release date as yet) AND are at work on a music CD called "The Blessing Of The Strings: Songs From The Book Bluegrass Is My Second Language." it features my original songs as well as originals from the members of the Bluegrass band i play with called EIGHTwentythree. (we took our name from the first day we ever played together: 8/23/01.) jeff wiseman is on banjo and lead vocals, greg eldred on lead vocal and guitar, keith carroll on acoustic (upright) bass and vocals. i play primarily mandolin, guitar, some dobro, harmonica (an instrument i learned to play for the Bondsmen btw) and a little cello on the album and also sing lead. this CD will be out in april or may of 2008. sorry to go on so long (it's why my book is 512 pages long!!) but i am hoping to get some updates on some of the other players on here and find out what paths we all took.plus, without what i just wrote, none of what i say next would make much sense: mike hollander wrote of the day jim bowen came into Northern High School with a box of records to sell and said it was electric.well it WAS but not nearly so much as the morning my clock radio went off and WSSB radio of durham north carolina announced a band called the Bondsmen (the name was suggested by drummer george outlaw another NHS student btw) had released a new record and here is one of the songs on it, Our Time To Try.to lie in bed as a high school senior and be awakened so unexpectedly by a song i had written and recorded with these incredibly talented musicians who happened to be my best friends was electrifying beyond my words to describe. that moment literally changed my life forever and undoubtedly started me down the path i walk today with music so much a HUGE part of my life.
