Happy 50th: Yes, YES (Article)
Tuesday, October 15, 2019
50 years ago today, Yes belatedly released their debut album in America, three months after the LP hit record stores back home in Britain. YES was produced by Paul Clay and the band, much to the dismay of guitarist Peter Banks, who felt that Clay’s history – he’d worked predominantly on film soundtracks – left him woefully unprepared to produce an album for a rock band, which resulted in Bill Bruford’s drums sounding “like biscuit tins” and Banks’s guitar coming across as “clangy.” Ah, but we’re getting ahead ourselves… Yes came into existence as a result of a band with the only-in-1967 name

Martha and the Vandellas (Article)
Tuesday, January 21, 2014
From the outset, Martha Reeves' voice possessed an earthy, direct quality that distinguished her from other female singers - such as sultry Mary Wells or demure Diana Ross - at Motown. Her voice bore the righteous fervor of gospel and the flinty edginess of rhythm & blues, which, combined with Motown's stylized pop-soul approach, made for a compelling package. Together with her backup singers, the Vandellas, Reeves recorded a classic run of singles in the mid-Sixties, most of them composed by the songwriting team of Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier and Eddie Holland. The Vandellas' hit streak

Dio - This Was His Life (Article)
Monday, March 31, 2014
With the arrival of the long-anticipated Ronnie James Dio tribute album, This Is Your Life, finally hitting stores tomorrow, it seems an apropos time to look back at the life of the man who’s getting this impressive tribute and remember what he was all about. Dio – born Ronald James Padavona – actually started his music career in the late 1950s, first as a member of the Vegas Kings, a band which changed its name numerous times in their relatively short career, also going by Ronnie & The Rumblers, Ronnie and the Redcaps, and Ronnie Dio and the Prophets before evolving into the Electric Elves

Happy 45th: Genesis, NURSERY CRYME (Article)
Monday, November 14, 2016
45 years ago this month, Genesis released their third solo album, an effort which found the band’s sound evolving away from folk and toward more of a progressive-rock sound. Produced by John Anthony, who’d also helmed the band’s previous album, TRESPASS, NURSERY CRYME found Genesis working with a new guitarist for the first time, one who would stick around for a fair while: Steve Hackett, who replaced the band’s founding guitarist, Anthony Phillips. It’s hard to say that Hackett’s arrival was necessarily the cause of the change in the band’s sound, but it certainly enabled them to step in a

Lynyrd Skynyrd (Article)
Tuesday, January 21, 2014
Mention the term "Southern rock" and two bands instantly leap to mind: the Allman Brothers and Lynyrd Skynyrd. They defined the genre in its Seventies heyday and beyond, and both bands are still active entities. But whereas the Allmans were deeply steeped in blues and jazz, Lynyrd Skynyrd more freely embraced rock. Their three-guitar lineup gave them an uncommon musical muscle, while their down-to-earth songs spoke plainly and honestly from a working-class Southerner's perspective. Theirs is one of the most dramatic tales in rock history. The saga of Lynyrd Skynyrd has unfolded in an almost

The Platters (Article)
Tuesday, January 21, 2014
The Platters were one of the top vocal groups of the Fifties, delivering smooth, stylized renditions of pop standards. Like the Ink Spots a decade earlier, they were the most popular black group of their time, achieving success in a crooning, middle-of-the-road style that put a soulful coat of uptown polish on pop-oriented, harmony-rich material. Their lengthy string of hits began in 1955 with "Only You" and continued until the end of the decade, including four singles that reached Number One : "The Great Pretender," "My Prayer," "Twilight Time" and "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes." The secret of the

Tuesday, March 28, 2017
41 years ago today, Genesis performed the first date of their first American tour with Phil Collins as the band’s lead singer. Anyone who’s followed the career of Genesis for any significant length of time is aware that the band has gone through a few different incarnations since first coming into existence in 1967.

In the Beginning… Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford, Anthony Phillips, and Chris

Single Stories: Sonny & Cher, “Baby Don’t Go” and “Laugh At Me” (Article)
Monday, August 21, 2017
You already know that “I Got You Babe” was the song that turned Sonny & Cher into superstars, but the song’s success also turned one of the duo’s earlier unnoticed singles into their second big hit, one which actually found its success on the heels of a solo song by Sonny Bono. The story goes like this: in September 1964, Sonny and Cher released “Baby Don’t Go” as their debut single on Reprise Records, which became a hit locally in Los Angeles and found some additional airplay elsewhere on the west coast but failed to hit the Hot 100. In the summer of 1965, however, they found themselves at
