Missionaria Protectiva

  FRANK ZAPPA  Joe's Garage  (Zappa,1979) - Progressive rock       Written in three acts and released by Zappa’s custom label in two packages (one single LP, one double),  Joe’s Garage  ties the dual extremes of Frank Zappa’s sensibility closer together than ever. An attack on authoritarianism in which fascist governments, self-help pseudoreligions and the music industry are inextricably linked, the opera simultaneously tells the tale of a boy and girl. The boy, Joe, sings the title tune about his humble rock & roll band whose day of fame came and quickly went. Most of Act I is given over to the saga of Joe’s girlfriend, Mary, who moves from blowing Catholic boys in the church basement (having been tutored by the parish’s resident expert, Father Riley) to being “Crew Slut” for a touring rock group to competing in a “Wet T-Shirt Nite” contest for bus fare home, where she arrives wrecked for good. Hearing of her exploits, Joe seeks consolation from a taco-stand waitress, who give

        Hamilton took up the guitar at age twelve and switched to electric bass two years later. He found himself on the East Coast and joined a band with Joe Perry named “The Jam Band.” While playing in New Hampshire, Perry and Hamilton met Steven Tyler at a show and decided to combine their respective musical projects and move to Boston in 1970. After a few personnel changes, the group officially formed the band “Aerosmith” and signed a record deal with Columbia Records in 1972.       Hamilton, a consistent member of the group, hadn’t missed an Aerosmith performance until 2006 when he was diagnosed with throat and tongue cancer. He has since undergone treatment and was able to rejoin the band for various tours and recording endeavors. Currently, he continues to deal with health issues and has taken a break from touring with the group. AEROSMITH Night In The Ruts CBS,1979 https://www.sendspace.com/file/qtkp9n

         You kind of get the impression from Joe Bonamassa that his position as the highest-grossing blues artist of all time is a little embarrassing – thrilling, sure, but it’s quite the affirmation. Perhaps this is why he has made it his life’s mission to widen the blues’ appeal.        Bonamassa leads with his fingers when it comes to advocacy, toting a muscular, pyrotechnic style that not only references the '60s British blues scene, and the pantheon of electric blues greats, and classic rock and prog when the song requires it.

        Payne is best known to rock & roll fans as the longtime keyboardist with the roots rock and rockin' blues band  Little Feat . Partly because he's been such a sought-after studio musician all these years, it wasn't until 2005 that he finally cut a record under his own name. Payne co-founded the band with  Roy Estrada ,  Richie Hayward , and the late  Lowell George  in 1969. He had a role in writing or singing most of the band's major, now classic tunes, including "Oh Atlanta," "Day or Night," "Time Loves a Hero," and "Gringo." He's also got a sessionography as a keyboardist that amounts to literally hundreds of recordings.  LITTLE FEAT Hoy-Hoy ! WB.1981 https://www.sendspace.com/file/nmhf6g
