ONCE UPON A TIME.....Hollywood Situation

 

HUDSON BROTHERS  Hollywood Situation  (Casablanca,1974) - Pop,Rock


     No one would ever dream that a summer-replacement variety-show comic team could also be the out-of-nowhere musical sensations of the year, but that's exactly what the Hudson Brothers sound like to me. Hollywood Situtation, a hastily assembled album rush released to coincide with their TV show, communicates that rarest of contemporary commodities -- actual, infectious excitement. The title rocker jolts the adrenalin right off, and a succession of irresistible melodies, brash, dynamic rock and exhilarating harmonies sustain the initial intensity. The Hudsons display enviable polish, too, on "Song for Stephanie," "Three of Us" and the slower, amazingly Lennonesque hit single, "So You Are a Star." But even their lesser tunes ("Ma Ma Ma Baby") have that essential raw edge that removes them from the ordinary pale. The three Hudson Brothers wrote everything and played almost all of it and obviously have vast musical potential.

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.
