BASS CULTURE...Michael Henderson

 


     1951, Yazoo City, Mississippi, USA. Henderson moved to Detroit as a child and showed an early aptitude for music, in particular on bass. Indeed, he was something of a boy wonder, being employed as a bass player for the Fantastic Four, Detroit Emeralds, Jackson Five, Martha Reeves, Billy Preston and numerous Motown Records artists when aged only 13. He was then invited out on the road with the touring bands of both Aretha Franklin and Stevie Wonder. In 1968 Henderson was recruited by Miles Davis and spent seven years touring and recording with his band. A chance meeting with Norman Connors resulted in Henderson finally getting his own material recorded, duetting with Jean Carne on ‘Valentine Love’ from Connors’ Saturday Night Special album in 1975, which became a US hit single. He followed this up with the title-track to You Are My Starship, a platinum album and major hit single. On the strength of this success Henderson was signed direct by Buddah Records and released his debut album, Solid, in 1976. He released eight albums with Buddah, coming closest to single success with the P-Funk-influenced ‘Wide Receiver’ from the album of the same name, before signing with EMI Records in 1986. He has also produced the Dramatics and recorded with Phyllis Hyman, Bobby Womack and Johnnie Taylor. He was additionally responsible for giving Cherrelle her first break in the music business - he employed her as a backing singer and took her on tour for four years.

GUITAR WOLF...Joe Perry

Слика
        It’s hard to conceive a better musical foil for Steven Tyler than his longtime partner and occasional adversary. For more than 40 years, Joe Perry’s monstrous, blues-on-steroids riffs have been  Aerosmith ‘s bedrock. And his solos, jutting out from “Walk This Way” or slashing boldly through the high-gloss production of later hits like “Janie’s Got a Gun” and “Cryin’,” have a caffeinated energy that’s every bit Tyler’s match.

LITTLE DRUMMER BOY...Matt Cameron

Слика
        More than any other drummer, Matt Cameron laid the rhythmic foundation for the Nineties rock revolution, reconciling proggy technicality with overwhelming force. He aptly characterized his rotary-blade rhythms on the 1991 Soundgarden track "Jesus Christ Pose" as "a pure assault of the senses," but that efficient brutality wasn't necessarily characteristic of Cameron's work with the band – his drumming on  Superunknown  is as thoughtful as it is heavy, from the fluid asymmetry of "Spoonman" to the unshakeable backbeat of "Fell on Black Days." Twenty years after its release, Dave Grohl was  still raving , "Nobody played drums like Matt." When Soundgarden suddenly disbanded in 1997, Cameron wasn't out of work for long: Pearl Jam invited him on tour the following year.  SOUNDGARDEN  Badmotorfinger A&M,1991 https://www.sendspace.com/file/uaniyr

ONCE UPON A TIME.....Gravy Train

Слика
  GRAVY TRAIN  Gravy Train  (Vertigo,1970) - Progressive rock       Their debut shows Gravy Train as a brave and daring underground band, heavily influenced by and derivative of other prog/hard acts of the time, yet actually trying to push the boundaries forward. Unfortunately, since the album bombed, the guys preferred to dump all the experimentation of these songs in favour of a smoother, more commercial sound later on, which totally destroyed their idiosyncrasy and forever nailed them as second-rate good-for-nothings.
