The Jumping Jewels - Dakota(1963)

De Haagse gitaargroep The Jumping Jewels was gebaseerd op de Fender Stratocaster-sound van The Shadows. Vooral ook door toedoen van hun manager Herman Batelaan wist de groep met zijn professionele aanpak een internationale status te bereiken. Met hun zanger Johnny Lion (Jan van Leeuwarden) hadden zij in de periode 1961-1965 een enorm groot succes in Nederland. In de zalen speelden zich vaak wilde taferelen af met hysterische fans. .

 

Dakota De bezetting bestond naast Lion uit Hans van Eijk (sologitaar), Tjibbe Veelo (slaggitaar), Joop Oonk (basgitaar), Frits Tamminga (drums). De laatste werd in 1963 vervangen door Cees Kranenburg jr.

Jimi Hendrix - Wild Thing

43 jaar na zijn dood is Jimi nog steeds in beeld,nog even een terugblik naar het begin van zijn veel te korte carriere.

                                          Jimi Hendrix - Wild Thing

'Jimi Hendrix overleed veel te jong en je vraagt je af wat voor muzikale plannen hij nog had. Als iemand het weet is het zijn vaste geluidstechnicus Eddie Kramer. Tijdens de presentatie van 'People, Hell & Angels' op 30 januari jl. in Londen lichtte hij een tipje van de sluier. 'We hebben er weinig over gesproken, maar ik weet dat hij zijn horizon wilde verbreden en grote, georkestreerde stukken wilde maken. En hij had waarschijnlijk ook jazz in zijn muziek verwerkt, en rap en hiphop, sampling en allerlei andere dingen', zei Kramer. 'Hij was een componist, een genie, die grote interesse voor techniek had. Volgens mij was hij ook films gaan maken, inclusief de filmmuziek, en hij was ook tv-programma's gaan produceren.'(Sony Music The Legacy)

Band Of Gypsys - "Stop" (Live at the Fillmore East, Dec. 31th.1969)

 On the 31st December 1969, a new Hendrix group would take to the stage for the first time at the legendary Fillmore East venue in New York City. Often referred to as Band Of Gypsys, the band consisted of Billy Cox on bass, Buddy Miles on drums and Jimi Hendrix on guitar. It had been over six months since the end of The Jimi Hendrix Experience and the Band Of Gypsys took Hendrix’s music in a new direction, mainly down to the different musical techniques of his two new band mates. The songs were funky and contained grooves that roamed around the auditorium. New songs were debuted with one in particular leaving a lasting impression that remains to this day. It could only happen at Fillmore East and it could only have been Hendrix. (Tom Caswell)https://tomcaswell.net/

 "Baby Please Don't Go" was one of the earliest songs recorded by Them, fronted by a 19-year-old Van Morrison. Their rendition of the song was derived from a version recorded by John Lee Hooker in 1949 as "Don't Go Baby". Hooker's song later appeared on a 1959 album, Highway of Blues, which Van Morrison heard and felt was "something really unique and different" with "more soul" than he had previously heard.
