Albert King - Born Under A Bad Sign (Sweden June 9,1980)

Albert Nelson (April 25, 1923 – December 21, 1992), known by his stage name Albert King, was an American blues guitarist and singer whose playing influenced many other blues guitarists. He is perhaps best known for the popular and influential album Born Under a Bad Sign (1967) and its title track. He, B.B. King, and Freddie King, all unrelated, were known as the "Kings of the Blues." The left-handed King was known for his "deep, dramatic sound that was widely imitated by both blues and rock guitarists

"Born Under a Bad Sign" is a blues song recorded by American blues singer and guitarist Albert King in 1967. Called "a timeless staple of the blues",the song also had strong crossover appeal to the rock audience with its synchronous bass and guitar lines and topical astrology reference. "Born Under a Bad Sign" appeared on the R&B chart and became a blues standard

Rory Gallagher - Acoustic , FR3-TV Lambersart studio, Lille, France (1975-07-25)

                          William Rory Gallagher (2 March 1948 – 14 June 1995) R.I.P. 

 

      Blues-rock musician and singer Rory Gallagher featured on this episode of ‘Me and My Music’.  The series featured singers and songwriters of the seventies, talking about the music business and performing some of their songs.

 "This evening it’s acoustic music, nice for a change for me, because normally it’s three-quarters electric music on the show." Rory.

                            "Out on the Western Plain" (Lead Belly) - album Againt The Grain

 Against the Grain is the seventh album by Irish musician Rory Gallagher, released in 1975. It was his first album with his new record company Chrysalis. The album is mostly new songs written by Gallagher as well as some classic blues and R&B numbers.

      "Too Much Alcohol" (JB Hutto) abum Irish Tour "74"

 Irish Tour '74 is the sixth album by Rory Gallagher, compiled from live recordings made at concerts on an Irish Tour in January 1974 at Belfast Ulster Hall, Dublin Carlton Cinema and Cork City Hall. "Back on My Stompin' Ground (After Hours)" was taken from a jam session during the tour on the Lane Mobile Unit. Irish Tour '74 has sold in excess of two million copies worldwide. An article in a Belfast daily newspaper stated: "Rory Gallagher never forgot Northern Ireland, he returned throughout the '70s when few other artists of his calibre dared come near the place.

     "Banker,s Blues" (Big Bill Broonzy) album Bleu Print

 Blueprint is the fourth album by Irish guitarist Rory Gallagher, released as a vinyl record in 1973. With his first band Taste and with his solo band up to this point Gallagher was one of the first guitarists to lead a power trio lineup. With Blueprint Gallagher included a keyboardist for the first time.


                                         Secret Agent ,album Calling Card

 Calling Card is the eighth album by Irish singer/guitarist Rory Gallagher. A 1976 release, it was his second of four albums released on Chrysalis Records in the 1970s. Deep Purple/Rainbow bass guitarist Roger Glover co-produced with Gallagher: it was the first time that Gallagher worked with a "name" producer and the only successful such collaboration.[1] It was also the last album Gallagher would do with Rod de'Ath (drums) and Lou Martin (keyboards). After Calling Card, Gallagher retained only his long-time bass guitarist Gerry McAvoy and hired Ted McKenna on drums. This revised power trio was Gallagher's line up for the next five years when Brendan O'Neil took the sticks.

                                          Going To My Home Town


Although at this stage Gallagher was spending most of his time performing in the United States, he came to the RTÉ studios to record this acoustic set. He had just released his ‘Calling Card’ album a couple of months beforehand and indeed the quieter, more reflective side of Gallagher’s playing is evident in this programme.
Me And My Music: Rory Gallagher was broadcast on 22 February 1977.  The producer was Ian McGarry.

Bob Dylan - Masters Of War (Woodstock 24 Aug.1994)


Woodstock '94 was a music festival organized to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the original Woodstock festival of 1969. It was promoted as "2 More Days of Peace and Music." The poster used to promote the first concert was revised to feature two birds perched on a guitar neck, instead of the original one.
The 1994 concert was scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, August 13 and 14,[1] with a third day (Friday, August 12) added later. The weather was rainy that weekend, and by Saturday much of the field had turned into mud.
But the highlight of the festival was the performance by Bob Dylan, who’d turned down an invitation to appear 25 years before. Promoters actually planned to stage the 1969 concert on the Winston Farm site with the hope that Dylan, who lived nearby, would perform. Dylan declined and when the owner of the land backed out, the concert was moved to Bethel, N.Y.

                      Masters Of War

From the beginning, the promoters wanted Bob Dylan to play Woodstock. The reason they even wanted the festival to be held in Woodstock in 1969 was to lure Dylan, a local, to play the festival. Unfortunately, at the time Dylan was recovering from a motorcycle accident and trying to live a quiet life. When Woodstock ’94 was set to take place, Dylan was coming off of a string of less-than-stellar albums and his recording contract was up for renewal. He agreed to play and performed a set that helped reignite his career.

- CROSBY, STILLS, NASH & YOUNG - Winterland, San Francisco October 4th 1973 - New Mama

 David Crosby - guitar, vocals; Stephen Stills - guitar, piano, vocals; Graham Nash - guitar, piano, vocals; Neil Young - guitar, harmonica, vocals 

The personality clashes between Stills and Young were the most publicized of all and had been going on since the Buffalo Springfield days, so when Neil Young walks out to join the other three, the crowd goes nuts. The musical chemistry between Stills and Young had always been undeniable, but many believed they'd never see the two on the same stage again, so this was indeed a monumental moment

                                                                     New Mama 

Young was just about to release his controversial Time Fades Away album, but in typically unexpected style proceeds to play nothing from this album, instead performing three new songs, "Roll Another Number," "Human Highway," and "New Mama." The middle song was rumored to be the title song of a potential third CSN&Y project, while the other two would be destined for Tonight's The Night, an album that wouldn't see the light of day until June of 1975.


Towards the end of an album (Tonight's the Night) that is filled with either scathing or ironic songs about drugs, "New Mama" gives the listener a bit of a break, with one of the prettiest folk-based melodies that Neil Young has ever written. The sense of hope and looking forward is a left turn for the album as well. Stephen Stills cut a fine version of this on his Illegal Stills album in 1976.
