Every Tuesday and Thursday, former Warner Bros. Records executive and industry insider Stan Cornyn ruminates on the past, present, and future of the music business. Crosby and ... In the late ‘60s, living up in Laurel Canyon, most folk music folks hung loose. They seldom had music agents or career managers. The folkies up there were not making big bucks enough to interest agents or managers. If there was one act that might have been of interest, that one was The Byrds, David Crosby’s folk- rock group, which back in 1965 had a hit on Columbia with Bob Dylan’s “Mr. Tambourine Man.” The Byrds’

Bob Lefsetz: Welcome To My World - "Dylan Covers" (Article)
Friday, March 20, 2015
BLOWIN' IN THE WIND Peter, Paul & Mary We had no idea who Bob Dylan was, but Peter, Paul & Mary were STARS! If you were Jewish and went to summer camp... No, scratch that, if you went to summer camp at all, I heard this at Boy Scout camp, you knew "Blowin' In The Wind." The folk boom was in full bloom, everyone was playing a guitar, especially counselors and religious leaders, and the masses sang along. That's right, rather than rapping, believing they were going to be stars, the youth of yesterday sang along to songs with melodies, changes and meaningful lyrics, rejoicing in the pure pleasure

Every Tuesday and Thursday, former Warner Bros. Records executive and industry insider Stan Cornyn ruminates on the past, present, and future of the music business. 1973 Maria Muldaur has been a singer, out front of bands, for 50 years now, but her peak of fame came at Warner/Reprise in the 1970s, making records in her own name. And in her own style: hot and sassy. She’d started singing in junior high. “I had an all-Puerto Rican-girl rock and roll band called The Cashmeres. We wore tight white sweaters and tight black skirts and sang at all the dances.I had written like 18 rock and roll tunes

Jeff Beck (Article)
Tuesday, January 21, 2014
Jeff Beck (guitar; born June 24, 1944)Jeff Beck is one of rock's true virtuosos and among its most dynamic instrumentalists. He is not strictly a "rock" guitarist, having taken much from the world of jazz as well. His style is largely based on improvisation, and he's cut hybrid jazz-rock albums on his own and with jazz-fusion titan Jan Hammer. Beck's career has never followed a straight trajectory. Much like his solos, he zigs and zags wherever inspiration leads him. His quixotic career has included membership in the Yardbirds, two hard-hitting lineups of the Jeff Beck Group and a pair of

With their penchant for ghoulish stage shows and a gender-bending wardrobe, this five-man group brought the element of theater to the world of rock. That alone would securely cement their stature as

Call this 1966, and edging toward 1967. Warner Bros. Records’ new young A&R crew grew. It hung out with Lenny Waronker in Burbank. Then, after work, hanging out for many of these fresh-eared A&R Boys had begun in a near-Hollywood area named “Laurel Canyon.” Up in Laurel Canyon – a spot just off center in L.A. – lived hippy Hollywood. Mama Cass and the Mamas and Papas. Two of the Doors. And, when it came to Warner/Reprise, there

Bob Lefsetz: Welcome To My World - "Joni Mitchell Playlist" (Article)
Friday, October 16, 2015
NATHAN LA FRANEER If you bought "Joni Mitchell," aka "Song To A Seagull," when it came out, you're a member of a very exclusive club or you're lying. There were no famous covers, no big media campaign, the record barely made a noise. Yet, when you discovered it sometime thereafter, which you did if you were a big Joni Mitchell fan, you became enraptured, because of the sound. This is my favorite cut on the LP, the story of a ride to the airport. Exquisitely recorded by Art Cryst and produced by David Crosby this is the sound of enough money to get it right, it's evidence of a lost art. Hearing
