Duane Allman
Born:
Duane Allman lives on in the hearts and minds of those he touched with his music. Duane was dynamic, charismatic, and very much alive. So much so that many of us feel his presence today when we listen to his music. Ed Shane hosted Duane Allman in 1970 on a one hour radio broadcast he called The Duane Allman Hour (it was a one-time event). Duane talks about life, music, Clapton, forming the Allman Brothers, the first two albums, and many other things. Later that year, Duane bopped into WABC-FM's studios in New York where he was interviewed (?!) by Dave Herman. Duane was -on- and this is a fun interview as well as another glimpse into Duane's philosophy of life
Thirty Essential Transformative Guitarists
by Alan Bryson
"Best guitarist" lists are inherently subjective--often nonsensical. They rank the unrankable, folding popularity, technique, cultural impact, sales, and personal taste into a single hierarchy. This list takes a different approach, acknowledging thirty guitarists who transformed the instrument itself: they created new techniques, pioneered fresh concepts, expanded its sonic vocabulary, and changed how those who followed them played. ...
Jimi Hendrix: Showman and Sculptor
by Alan Bryson
When you think of Jimi Hendrix, chances are something flamboyant or incendiary comes to mind. His Stratocaster in flames at Monterey, or kneeling before a wall of amps at Woodstock. Those are in my memory bank too, but I'm one of a small group of people alive today who actually experienced The Jimi Hendrix Experience. The ...
Fillmore Dreams, Part 2
by Blue Note Portal
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 The transition was not at all what Xample expected. Dr. Kovac had walked him through the neural integration protocol multiple times. He had read the technical documentation--all 1,400 pages of it. He had sat in the chamber on the seventy-seventh floor, felt the interface nodes calibrate ...
Fillmore Dreams, Part 1
by Blue Note Portal
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 The room had no name. It didn't need one. Everyone who mattered in the trillion-dollar architecture of Xample Global knew exactly where they were when the elevator opened onto the seventy-seventh floor of the X Tower in what had once been called New York City and ...
Iconic Music in Film: Boomer Edition
by Alan Bryson
One of the pleasures of looking back at film music from the boomer years is realizing how quickly the walls were coming down. Classical themes turned into jazz-funk hits. Soul records won Oscars. Rock songs became character development. Bluegrass, blues, disco, Latin jazz, and spaghetti-western minimalism all found their way onto the screen, and in the ...
All About Music—My AAJ Experience
by Alan Bryson
Music & Taste Music and food have a lot in common. Variety is the key--without it, even the best prepared food loses its appeal. It is telling that we speak of “musical taste," even though we experience music through our ears. Genres like jazz and classical music weave together themes, patterns, harmonies, and mathematical ...
The Unlikely Story of Cannonball Adderley's Rise to the Top
by Alan Bryson
For me, the most gripping music stories are the tales of “overnight sensations." In the jazz sphere, we have our share. There is the story of an eighteen-year-old Billie Holiday, discovered by producer John Hammond while she was a hostess in a Harlem club. There is the tale of a seventeen-year-old Ella Fitzgerald, whose triumphant debut ...

John Hammond Jr.: Bear's Sonic Journals: You're Doin' Fine - Blues at the Boarding House, June 2 & 3, 1973 (3CD)
by Doug Collette
John Hammond Jr. was perhaps the first white musician to gain some measure of recognition for his devotion to the blues. The offspring of the famed Columbia Records mogul never relied on his name or rested on his laurels. On the contrary, the son of the man who signed Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and Bruce Springsteen ...
