Matt Schofield -Fokke de Jong -Ruud Weber - Stef Delbaere * -Govert van der Kolm * new member King Of The World
Mooi optreden van Matt Schofield in een bomvol Porgy & Bess. De begeleiding bestond deze avond uit leden van King Of The World ,onder de naam van The Kings Rythm Crew.een uitstekende combinatie wat later zou blijken.Het speelplezier straalde er vanaf ,en een mooie interaktie tussn de bandleden en Matt.Tevens werd de gelegenhied aangegegrepen om de nieuwe gitarist van King Of The World voor te stellen Stef Delbaere,veelbelovend en in mijn ogen een waardige vervanger van Erwin Java.Uiteraard veel muziekvrienden in het altijd gezellige Porgy & Bess waaronder Vincent Lyons.Diens aanwezigheid betekent altijd mooie registraties,zoals onderstaand filmpje.

Matt Schofield (born 21 August 1977, Manchester, England)[ is an English blues guitarist and singer. Matt Schofield , played his own material, a blend of blues, funk and jazz, as well as covers of blues classics such as Albert Collins' "Lights Are On, But Nobody's Home".
Schofield is regarded as one of the most distinctive and
innovative British blues guitarists, and has been rated in the top ten
of British blues guitarists by Guitar & Bass Magazine. Schofield's prowess has taken his band to twelve countries; seen him playing with musicians including Buddy Guy and Robben Ford; and brought a note in the Penguin Book of Blues Recordings as one of only two living British artists to gain the maximum four-star rating. In addition, he has been admitted to the British Blues Awards Hall of Fame (Wikipedia)
Spencer Davis (born 17 July 1939, Swansea, Wales) moved to Birmingham
from London in 1960 to study. In 1963, he recruited the Winwood brothers
and started the Spencer Davis Group. The band performed regularly in
the city. They signed their first recording contract after Chris
Blackwell of Island Records saw them at an appearance in a local club;
Blackwell also became their producer.
Somebody Help Me Now.
The group's first professional recording was a cover version of
"Dimples", but they came to success at the end of 1965 with "Keep On
Running", the group's first number one single. In 1966, they followed
this with "Somebody Help Me" and "When I Come Home". For the German
market the group released "Det war in Schoneberg, im Monat Mai" and
"Madel ruck ruck ruck an meine grune Seite" (the first is from a 1913
Berlin operetta, the second is a Swabian traditional) as a tribute
single for that audience, Davis having studied in West Berlin in the
early 1960s.
Till The End Of Time
By the end of 1966 and the beginning of 1967, the group released two
more hits, "Gimme Some Lovin'" and "I'm a Man". These tracks proved to
be their two best-known successes, especially in the U.S.
Gimme Some Lovin
In 1967, Winwood left to form Traffic; his brother Muff moved into
the music industry as A&R man at Island Records. In a joint venture,
the soundtrack to the film Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush featured
both the Spencer Davis Group and Traffic.
keep On Runnin
Despite the Winwoods' departure, the Spencer Davis Group continued
performing and released more singles, though not repeating earlier
successes. These included "Time Seller" in July 1967; the b-side, "Don't
Want You No More," also received radio airplay.
Nobody Knows When You Down and Out (From "The Ghost Goes Gear")
In 1966 the group starred in The Ghost Goes Gear, a Britishmusicalcomedy film, directed by Hugh Gladwish, and also starring Sheila White and Nicholas Parsons. The plot involved the group in a stay at the childhood home of their manager, a haunted manor house in the English countryside. The film would later be considered a mistake by Winwood.
When i Come Home (From "The Ghost Goes Gear")
Although short-lived, the Spencer Davis Group - particularly its
incarnation with Steve Winwood - proved to be influential, with many of
the band's songs covered by other artists over the years. Notable among
these are Chicago's 1969 version of "I'm a Man," The Allman Brothers
Band's 1969 take of Davis' instrumental "Don't Want You No More," Three
Dog Night's 1970 recording of "Can't Get Enough of It," and The Blues
Brothers' 1980 recording of "Gimme Some Lovin'." The Grateful Dead also
covered Spencer Davis Group material in live performance on occasion; in
particular, Spencer Davis himself performed "I'm a Man" with the Dead
at a 1989 performance at Los Angeles' Great Western Forum.
"Do It Again" is a song composed by Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, Released as a single from their 1972 debut album Can't Buy a Thrill. The single version differed from the album version, shortening the intro and outro and omitting the organ solo.
Released in 1972, the song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 on November 18, 1972, and reached number 6 on the US charts in 1973, making it Steely Dan's second highest charting single.

Thema Woede/Wraak/Hoop Voorgaande SFTH avonden kwamen er altijd
namen voorbij als Bob Dylan ,Ry Cooder JJ.Cale,Beatles e.a songs van
deze artiesten gebracht door muzikanten uit Zeeland. Maar ook buiten de
provincie gaven diverse zangers,zangeressen en groepen "acte de
precence". Dit jaar is voor een andere opzet gekozen,zeven avonden met
met als thema de zeven hoofdzonden gecombineerd de zeven deugden. Atijd
spannend welke nummers er voorbij zouden komen ,gebracht door welke
artiesten.De eerste avond was erg mooi ,genoten van de eerst tot de
laatste minuut. Ik dacht dat ik toch redelijk op de hoogte was van de stand van zaken in de Zeeuwse muziekscene.En toch werd ik ook op deze SFTH avond weer aangenaam verrast door een zanger Jan Francois die samen met een uitstekende band enkele prachtige Jackson Brown songs vertolkte. En weer maar eens een bewijs van het vele muzikale talent in Zeeland De mooie registratie is van Jaap van Visvliet.
The Pretender - Jackson Brown Deze song komt van het gelijknamige album The Pretender
Jackson Brownn : "it's
not me exactly, although sometimes people applaud for me at that moment
in the song as if I am, but in truth there is a bit of The Pretender in
me, but it's anybody that's sort of lost sight of some of their
dreams...and is going through the motions and trying to make a stab at a
certain way of life that he sees other people succeeding at. So maybe
it's a lot of people of a certain generation who sort of embraced a very
material lifestyle in place of dreams that they had that sort of
disintegrated at some point."

After all the jacks are in their boxes
And the clowns have all gone to bed
You can hear happiness staggering on down the street
Footprints dressed in red
And the wind whispers Mary
A broom is drearily sweeping
Up the broken pieces of yesterday’s life
Somewhere a queen is weeping
Somewhere a king has no wife
And the wind, it cries Mary
The traffic lights they turn up blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island sags downstream
‘Cause the life that lived is, is dead
And the wind screams Mary
Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown in the past
And with his crutch, it’s old age, and it's wisdom
It whispers no, this will be the last
And the wind cries Mary
“It kind of came together in a serendipitous fashion,” Hiatt says of his 23rd studio album, recorded during 2017 solar eclipse ,
Aces up Your Sleeve
Hiatt recorded the album in Nashville
over the course of just a few days in the summer of 2017, which
happened to include the full solar eclipse that took place on August
21st. Never one to ignore the good fortune of a successful recording
session, Hiatt titled the album after the otherworldly natural wonder.
Cry To Me
Though Hiatt knew it was
nearing time to release new material, he didn’t feel rushed, and went
into the recording session with an open mind and a blank notebook. “It
kind of came together in a serendipitous fashion,” he tells Rolling
Stone Country. “It took me a little bit of time to get to this one. We
actually recorded it last summer [2017]. But the way it happened, I was
not sure what kind of recording I wanted to do, to be honest with you. I
was thinking about doing a solo record, just me and acoustic guitar. So
I didn’t really have a plan, in other words.”
All The Way To The River
“It was the day after my
birthday, just coincidentally,” he says. “I hate naming records and
never know what to call them, so I thought, ‘Oh, The Eclipse Sessions.
That’ll work.’ But it seemed to fit the mood.”
Hiatt was joined in the
studio by longtime drummer Kenneth Blevins and bassist Patrick O’Hearn,
the three shooting for a stripped-down trio sound that would accentuate
Hiatt’s vocals and distinct style of guitar playing. They recorded the
album at the home recording studio of Kevin McKendree, with an
engineering assist from McKendree’s musical whiz-kid son Yates. By the
time the group finished a batch of 15 songs, Hiatt knew he had a new
album on his hands.
“They just started sounding
so good,” he says. “I felt like we’d made some really good music. The
songs started hanging together. That’s when you start to feel like it
might be worth other folks hearing, like you’ve got something that can
connect with people. People used to ask Guy Clark, ‘When do you feel
like it’s time to make a record?’ And he’d say, ‘Well, it’s when you
feel like you have 10 good songs.’ So it’s kind of like that. You go in
and you start recording, and when they start falling in place and
hanging together, it starts to sound like a record.
Berns also hit the charts in late 1962 with the Exciters' "Tell Him" on United Artists, and with Solomon Burke's "Cry to Me" on Atlantic Records. As an independent producer working with myriad record labels, Berns also made important records with Garnet Mimms ("Cry Baby") and Gene Pitney ("If I Didn't Have a Dime (to Play the Jukebox)").
Shortly after his return from Cuba, Berns began a seven-year run from an obscure Brill Building
songwriter to owner of his own record labels. He signed as a $50/week
songwriter with Robert Mellin Music at 1650 Broadway in 1960. His first
hit record was "A Little Bit of Soap", performed by the Jarmels
on Laurie Records in 1961. Atlantic Records (1963–1965)
Berns himself had a short-lived career as a
recording artist, and in 1961, under the name "Russell Byrd", Berns
scored his only Billboard Hot 100
appearance with his own composition, "You'd Better Come Home", which
peaked at Number 50. That song would later be recorded by the Isley Brothers, and featured as the B-side of their 1962 single "Twistin' With Linda". Also in 1962, the Isley Brothers recorded "Twist and Shout" on Wand Records, written by Berns and Phil Medley.
"I remember him coming out of the console: he walked over to the
drum kit, grabbed a stick and started beating on a cymbal and saying,
'Let's get this thing cooking,' and created an atmosphere. Suddenly
everybody went, 'Yeah we're not sitting here tied to these seats, we're
allowed to express ourselves.' Berns just created a whole freedom of
atmosphere within the studio. Hellova producer. The guy was magic."
- Them guitarist Billy Harrison, interview with Wavelength
Berns, who had a history of cardiac trouble, as a result of his heart
being damaged from rheumatic fever contracted during childhood, died in
his New York apartment of heart failure on December 30, 1967, aged 38.
He was buried two days later, following a funeral service at Riverside Memorial Chapel on New York's 180 West 76th Street in Manhattan. His widow Ilene outlived her husband by nearly 50 years, passing away at the age of 73 on February 20, 2017.
