Bulldog (with Dino Danelli & Gene Cornish former members of Young Rascals)




















Bulldog - Bulldog - 1973



By Joe Viglione, All Music Guide

Produced and played by drummer Dino Danelli and guitarist Gene Cornish of the Young Rascals, Bulldog's debut in 1972 opens with a heavy version of the Bobby Day number two hit from 1958, "Rockin' Robin," a performance which displays the strength and weakness of this ensemble. Bassist/lead vocalist Billy Hocher is a cross between Bob Tench of the Jeff Beck Group, Ian Lloyd of Stories, and Ralph Mormon of Savoy Brown. On tunes like "Juicin' With Lucy" and "Don't Blame It on Me," the singing becomes overbearing and a bit tedious, despite the journeyman abilities of the ex-Rascals producing this. Interesting that a band called Sweathog in 1971 had a hit with "Hallelujah" and a sound similar to Bulldog. Also worthy of note is that little Michael Jackson took "Rockin' Robin" back to number two nationally the same year this album was released, 1972. There is a real gem here in the song "No," a minor hit in some regions of the country that was written by Hocher and keyboardist John Turi. It suffered the same fate as Stories' excellent "I'm Coming Home," their 1972 almost-hit which is quite similar in sound and performance to Bulldog's "No." The Hocher/Turi songwriting team had some merit, with Billy Hocher's voice a bit more accessible on "You Underlined My Life" and "Have a Nice Day," both songs being somewhat pleasant and more refined than some of the other material here. John Turi gets to sing lead on the almost-funky version of Chuck Berry's "Too Much Monkey Business," featuring guitarists Eric Thorngren and Gene Cornish, who deliver a nice riff-rock sludge to augment Turi's boogie-woogie piano. Inevitable comparisons to the Rascals have the band falling short of what was accomplished when Cornish and Danelli performed with Eddie Brigati and Felix Cavaliere. "Parting People Should Be Good Friends" is nice British pop, and that style of radio-friendly songwriting and structure is where this band shines. It's just that the pop sensibilities are offset by the attempted blues of a song like "Good Times Are Comin'," which, unfortunately, holds this album back. Six years later, Gene Cornish and Dino Danelli would form Fotomaker with Wally Bryson of the Raspberries and a lineup similar to the Rascals. Though superior to Bulldog, the problem there as well was that a creative force like Eric Carmen or Felix Cavaliere was missing. The verdict is quite simple -- these energies put into more albums by the Rascals over these lost years is what the fans would have appreciated. Were that the case, "No" might have gotten a huge yes on the charts.

The Tremeloes - The Tremeloes Boxed


Formada como Brian Poole e Tremoloes, tiveram o nome mudado para simplesmente The Tremoloes por obra de um erro ortográfico de um jornal local.

Em busca de um "beat group" a Decca escolheu o Tremeloes ao Beatles, o que é considerado um dos maiores erros da história da música. De qualquer forma, os Tremoles mostrou que tinham talento e uma promissora carreira. Como os Beatles,  todos os seus membros cantavam e a base de suas músicas eram o rock and roll.

Originalmente a banda era composta vocalista Brian Poole, o guitarrista Ricky West, o tecladista Alan Blakely, o baixista Alan Howard eo baterista Dave Munden.

Quando Poole e Howard deixaram a banda em 1966, Alan Blakely assumiu a liderança do grupo e Len "Chip" Hawkes substituiu Howard. Poole prosseguiu em carreira solo,  mas a falta de suceso logo o fez deixar o negócio da música.

West e Munden  ainda tocam seus velhos sucessos pela europa, acompanhados de músicos que tocaram em outras bandas na década de 1960 e 1970. Hawkes também esta ativo, tocando com sua própria banda. Alan Blakely faleceu em 1996

Tremeloes Boxed, lançado em 2000 pelo selo holandês BR Music abrange toda a carreira do grupo, com vários de seus sucessos em mais de 100 músicas distribuidas em 4 cds.

Brian Friel - Brian Joseph Friel



















Brian Friel - Brian Joseph Friel - 1974

Brian Joseph Friel é um folk/r&roll singer e guitarrista escocês

Em 1973. Brian assinou com a Dawn Records (uma subsidiária da Pye Records) e realizou dois álbuns. O primeiro foi realizado no Reino Unido como 'Brian Joseph Friel', que também ficou conhecido com 'Second Hand Dealer'. Nesse primeiro disco, há participação de músicos como Colin Allen e Steve Thompson, todos do Stone The Crows; Zoot Money, Gary Osborne e Paul Vigrass dos Chocolate Watchband, além de Jimmy McCulloch, que mais tarde se juntaria ao Wings de Paul McCartney. Jimmy McCulloch foi creditado como 'The Phantom' por motivos contratuais.

Eu simplesmente não sei dizer porque esse álbum é tão raro. Não consigo entender como a audição de um disco tão bom pode ter ficado tanto tempo à mão, quer dizer, ao ouvido, de tão poucos.

Para quem gosta de John Martin e Nick Drake, é download obrigatório. Para quem simplesmente gosta de uma boa música, não há como se arrepender.

Só mais uma coisa. Em recente entrevista em janeiro de 2009, Brian Friel admitiu que nunca recebeu um único centavo de royalties da Pye Records ou de qualquer um dos atuais proprietários. Portanto, meus amigos, fazendo o download voce não estará roubando o artista. Não se pode roubar de quem nada tenha.

01. The Rock and Roll's In Me
02. Susan of the Redwoods
03. (I'm Back Inside My) Mailbox Blues (Again)
04. Brown Eyes
05. Song For Ralph
06. Railroad Mama
07. Louise is Loose
08. Don't Let My Dreams Bring You Down
09. Pisces Lady
10. I Think It's Gonna Rain

Brian Joseph Friel é um folk/r&roll singer e guitarrista escocês

Em 1973. Brian assinou com a Dawn Records (uma subsidiária da Pye Records) e realizou dois álbuns. O primeiro foi realizado no Reino Unido como 'Brian Joseph Friel', que também ficou conhecido com 'Second Hand Dealer'. Nesse primeiro disco, há participação de músicos como Colin Allen e Steve Thompson, todos do Stone The Crows; Zoot Money, Gary Osborne e Paul Vigrass dos Chocolate Watchband, além de Jimmy McCulloch, que mais tarde se juntaria ao Wings de Paul McCartney. Jimmy McCulloch foi creditado como 'The Phantom' por motivos contratuais.

Eu simplesmente não sei dizer porque esse álbum é tão raro. Não consigo entender como a audição de um disco tão bom pode ter ficado tanto tempo à mão, quer dizer, ao ouvido, de tão poucos.

Para quem gosta de John Martin e Nick Drake, é download obrigatório. Para quem simplesmente gosta de uma boa música, não há como se arrepender.

Só mais uma coisa. Em recente entrevista em janeiro de 2009, Brian Friel admitiu que nunca recebeu um único centavo de royalties da Pye Records ou de qualquer um dos atuais proprietários. Portanto, meus amigos, fazendo o download voce não estará roubando o artista. Não se pode roubar de quem nada tenha.

E se o Pink Floyd fizesse trilha sonora para video-game?

Brad Smith desenvolveu uma versão para Dark Side of the Moon como se fosse uma trlha de um console Nitendo 8 bits. Mesmo com toda essa limitação, não é que o rapaz mandou muito bem
