Advice

Heren en dames musici,

Ga nooit werken op muziekscholen waar tuthola’s de scepter zwaaien!!

Begin voor uzelf.

[londonislonely]

I sognatori.

I mezzi pazzi.

Gli ubriachi.

I persi.

I poeti.

I musici.

Disegnatori.

Artisti.

I soli.

Quelli che han fatto pace con il buio

della notte. E dei pensieri.

Quelli che si tengono per loro le sconfitte

senza mai elemosinar perdono.

Quelli buffi. Goffi.

Che ogni tanto piangono e lo dicono.

Un poco sociopatici e per questo

affascinanti.

Quelli che han scoperto

di cosa è fatta la paura

e anche un po’ l’amore

e da quel giorno vivono meglio.

E da quel giorno hanno paura di far male.

Quelli che in una mattina qualunque

dopo aver bevuto un buon caffè

hanno deciso di sparire

di vivere

di incontrare la bellezza

di andare.

Perché così succede.

Quelli che han lasciato

il corrimano già da un pezzo

e non ricordano la strada dell’andata

figuriamoci quella del ritorno.

Padroni e schiavi della verità.

Loro.

Che certamente vi sorrideranno

dopo un: ciao come stai?

Loro, baciateli con cura.

Loro, abbracciateli più forte.

I can guess why Chase Rice held that concert for thousands of people. It wasn’t about his freedom or politics. It wasn’t even really about Trump. (Don’t tell Donald this, though, he’ll have a meltdown.)  Rice just wanted to make a name for himself and get trending on twitter. It worked. I mean, who had heard of him before this?

Unfortunately, I wonder if the man has heard about criminal negligence.

Shitloads of lawsuits are coming out of this one, IMO.

Happy Birthday founding member of The Average White Band Alan Gorrie.

AWB was formed in 1971 by Alan and Malcolm "Molly" Duncan, with Onnie McIntyre, Hamish Stuart, Roger Ball and Robbie McIntosh joining them in the original line-up.

The band's breakthrough was a support slot at Eric Clapton's comeback concert in 1973. MCA Records released their debut album, Show Your Hand, which sold poorly. Bruce McCaskill who was Clapton's tour manager liked the band's music and agreed to manage them. He borrowed money to take them to the U.S. and to promote them. McCaskill had many contacts from his days with Clapton and managed to get Atlantic Records to sign them. The band relocated to New York, signed to Atlantic and released the follow-up, AWB, better known as "The White Album". This album was the first of many with renowned producer Arif Mardin, and reached #1 in the U.S. Hot 100 chart and number 6 over hear.

However, tragedy struck on 23 September 1974, when McIntosh died of a heroin overdose. Gorrie also overdosed but Cher kept him conscious until medical help arrived. McIntosh was replaced by Steve Ferrone (of Bloodstone, and, like McIntosh, previously with Brian Auger's Oblivion Express), becoming the band's only black member.

In 1975, the single "Pick Up The Pieces" from the album AWB also hit #1 in the U.S. chart. The track is probably their best known today. The band followed up with the LPs Cut the Cake and Soul Searching, both big sellers and yielding further Top 40 singles. Their next LP, Benny & Us, was a collaboration with soul legend Ben E. King.

After several more albums, AWB's audience and sales dwindled. Although a dalliance with disco yielded the 1980 hit Let's Go Round Again, the band split in 1982 and Gore released a solo album in 85, .called Sleepless Nights. Gorrie, Ball and McIntyre reunited in 1989 to record Aftershock, but Ball left the band shortly after its release. Eliot Lewis co-wrote with Gorrie on this album and joined the band replacing lead singer Hamish Stuart.

Average White Band have continued recording, although to no commercial success, they also continue to tour cross North America with appearances in the Europe, Japan, South Africa and elsewhere. Alan Gorrie and Onnie McIntyre are the only two original members.

Here;'s the group as they are now, with Gorrie on Bass guitar. Gorrie and the late great Jack Bruce must be two of the best bass players to come out of Scotland.
