I was a little girl when I heard this song on the radio. I stopped in my tracks and listened to it and my dad saw me and asked me about it. I said this is going to be a hit. He objected and said the singer was a faggot. I asked him what a faggot was and he told me that it was a man that like to kiss men's peepees. I thought he was batshit crazy and I still do. I was right though, it was a hit!

I want to be polite and just say that was an interesting way to explain a concept to a little girl. But, alas, no...no, it wasn't. I do know what you mean about the song, though. It was one of those "radio" songs I change the station when it came on. There's only so much drama I could take even as a child. Besides, he has much better songs that weren't as popular, nor would they ever be. |

Last week, we did someone from Detroit, and this week, we're back in the Motor City, Baby!!!!!!
Our Guest today is Lene Lovich!!! Yes!! She was born in Detroit, so she's a US citizen, but did her puberty years in Jolly Ol' England. Very interesting Life story, none of which we'll cover here. This is about the "music" exept when it isn't. The woman can sing and exercise great control over her voice, and she is a talented song writer. So, think about Lady Gaga for a second, and Lene Lovich can be considered just as talented if not more so! The only real difference is that Lady Gaga can only dream about being this bat shit crazy!!!!!!! Here's how Lene's manager "sold" her singing talent to a record label:  I Think We're Alone Now Here's what they got:  Lene Lovich - Lucky Number The record label was in it now!!! Anyhoo, here's her first album, and I'm pretty sure I have the correct version of the US pressing. The record label produced bare minimum after bare minimum because they didn't understand, couldn't grasp, failed to accept reality, that the album was a successful around the World. There's even a version when Lovich sang the songs in Japanese. There's a lot of different pressings out there, and I hope I got it right.

Back at this time, this was the end of Punk and Disco, so record labels were looking for a "new sound." These were the days of synth pop, "electronic" music was making an ascendency, and the phrase "new wave" was being floated as they didn't have anything else to point to for a marketing direction.

To Honor the fact that we had one of our more well-known female members actually post in the thread (and especially since it was a good choice), here's more Rod Stewart!!!
But, it's more geared toward how I heard about Rod Stewart as a little kid. There were Faces and Rod Stewart, the solo act, and they were indistinguishable to me. Something like 4 or 5 albums came out between '70 to '72 with Faces building on the success of Rod Stewart and vice versa, and many of the same musicians were on the albums or on the tours. If you went to a Rod Stewart concert, he did Faces music, and if you went to a Faces concert, they did Rod Stewart songs. We're going to start with Rod Stewart, solo act, first, then go the Faces.

Rod Stewart himself was already a popular act in England. He was already associated with John Baldry and his circle of muscians like Mic Jagger, Ron Wood, Keith Richards, Elton John, and more.
Stewart was not just a Pop singer in the mid-'60s, but also a song writer and musician, and that seems to be the two things that got you into the same circle as John Baldry. The guy is talented, and he may have been a douche when he was younger, but he could write lyrics that rivaled the best in the business.

The Faces are next, but the historical time line was that the Faces came out first, then the first solo Rod Stewart album was issued.
Faces came about from the destruction, more or less, of Small Faces when Steve Mariott left for some Humble Pie. Rod Stewart and Ron Wood had just left the Jeff Beck Group, and they all got together and the rest is History! This is their third album: A Nod is as Good as a Wink...to a Blind Horse - 1971 Side 1 1 Miss Judy's Farm 2 You're So Rude 3 Love Lives Here 4 Last Orders Please 5 Stay with Me  Miss Judy's Farm  You're So Rude  Love Lives Here  Last Orders Please  Stay with Me |

I was going to do their first album and its crazy history, but next week we're doing John Baldry's '71 album, and there are some overlapping songs, but this is a good album! Their second album could have come straight out of Nashville, oddly enough. It's good! But, I thought its context might not be accepted without a lot of words in the post, and I'm going to eat breakfast next.
I always liked their album titles. Those were on the humorous side...still. They didn't take themselves too seriously, and had just as good a time at the show as the audience did.  That's All You Need ETA: I just remembered what i forgot to add about this album that makes the first pressing a collector's item. It came with a big poster of a photo taken at one of their after-parties featuring naked chicks and people doing drugs. When the label found out, immediate recall and a rushed second pressing. |

After thoughtful reconsideration, a new determination has been made that, yes, the Faces second album, Long Player, will now be posted for your further enjoyment.
Ron Wood is a very good steel guitar player, and excellent slide guitarist as well (but he's no Rory Gallagher, but then who is....)

John Baldry was an English man. Well, there was more to him than that! He was also 6'7" tall. He was also a very popular "Pop" singer in English music. He was also the first person to sing and play in the style of the "American Blues" in England. He formed a coterie with such people as Rod Stewart, Elton John, Jack Bruce, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Brian Jones, Jack Bruce, and I'm forgetting a lot of other people, but I'm sure most of you recognize these names, and they all worked together in some form or fashion in the very very early '60s.
For one of the few times as a kid, I was on top of the music scene instead of getting hold of record after the fact. This is from 1971, and Rod Stewart was asked to produce it.

While "Long" John Baldry is barely known here, he was integral to the British music scene even if he wasn't as rich or as popular internationally as others. Elton John wrote a song about him entitled "Someone Saved My Life Tonight." Baldry had that sort of popularity.

From what I remember as kid, the music from this album was bigger, more emotionally powerful (although I didn't/wouldn't have used those words) and more "alive" than anything out there. I never got to see a Delaney and Bonney revival, but this is surely what this must have been.

A couple of years ago in this thread, I presumed to write about how the I-IV-V chord progression and the actual music itself had originated with the Scoth-Irish as they populated the colonies, and that musical style was a product of these people. Over time this broke down into the "country" music of the Southern underclasses and the Western music of the West - both using the I-IV-V chord progression. Pre-Civil War time (antebellum! I know a big word) this point in the South, there was no difference in structure between between white and black music; there wasn't even that much difference, except for personalities involved, in the music itself. The differences wouldn't come until the aftermath of the Civil War with the Democratic Party's insistence on segregating white from black, plus the victory of the US in the Spanish-American War introduced a different musical World to the US, and then there was the technology of recording music. Whomever was recorded first doing the same thing everyone else was doing, was de facto given credit for "originated" it.
In the '50s when American music went to England, they copied it, played, expanded off of it. That's normally how culture grows. What these English kids didn't realize was that the musical stylings they were copying had originally came from their Island. But, whatever, they did interesting things with the music, so the rest of us could enjoy it. By the late '60s early '70s, more British types were coming here to play with American musicians and work with American producers. The Mad Dogs and Englishmen Tour was just another result of this British musician desire. This turned out pretty good for the rest of us.

Now for the gossipy part!!
It was said that Joe Cocker always felt over-shadowed by Leon Russell on this tour. Maybe/probably. Afterall, Joe Cocker was, for a moment, considered the World's most exciting singer! Joe Cocker was going through his alcohol and drug phrase which he somehow survived, but he knew Leon Russell before they actually and literally "threw this tour together" due to a contractual obligation that someone named Joe Cocker somehow forgot about. He knew Leon Russell during the tour, and he worked with Leon Russell for years afterwards including a reunion tour!! Just count the money Joe, be polite to everyone, and be thankful you didn't end up like Dave Evans.

I tried to find a free stream of the movie based on the tour, but the streamers are all charging at least $7.99 for it. !!!
It's a good movie, but it's not that good. So, here's a few youtuber play lists that you can scroll through. I'm pretty sure the movie was filmed at the Fillmore East shows. I can't say all these film clips are from there, but there's plenty to get a feel of the Tour as a whole: ETA: I forgot to mention to click on the url below the player to get to the play list. You'll only hear/see the first song of the playlist if you click on the player.  Joe Cocker - Delta Lady ( Mad Dogs & Englishmen ) Full Version  Joe Cocker, Mad Dogs and Englishmen - Will The Circle Be Unbroken (LIVE) HD  Joe Cocker - Mad Dogs & Englishmen - Space Captain Enjoy! It's now a nice slice of Americana!! I can assure you, it was not considered this when it was created!!! Enjoy the subversion!!! |
