Joe Perry: What The Beatles mean to me

Joe Perry: What The Beatles mean to me

MusicRadar

"I was already into rock 'n' roll and pop music before The Beatles hit America. I remember being a little kid and seeing this guy Elvis Presley on TV - the girls would scream when he came on. That kind of stuck with me.

"The stuff I was into were things like Roy Orbison and the Phil Spector hits. I was definitely a music loving kid. From my earliest days, whenever I heard music, I felt happy and forgot all my problems.

"In fact, I even started playing guitar at a young age. My parents bought me a Silvertone acoustic guitar that cost $12.95 and it came with a little 45 single that said, 'Hold the plectrum with the right hand and the neck with the left.' I'm naturally left-handed, but since that's how the record said to play guitar, that's how I did it - it never occurred to me to change.

"The night The Beatles first played the Ed Sullivan Show, boy, that was something. Seeing them on TV was akin to a national holiday. Talk about an event. I never saw guys looking so cool. I had already heard some of their songs on the radio, but I wasn't prepared by how powerful and totally mesmerizing they were to watch. It changed me completely. I knew something was different in the world that night.

"Next day at school, The Beatles were all anybody could talk about. Us guys had to play it kind of cool, because the girls were so excited and were drawing little hearts on their notebooks - 'I love Paul,' that kind of thing. But I think there was an unspoken thing with the guys that we all dug The Beatles, too. We just couldn't come right out and say it.

"All of that changed when I went to see A Hard Day's Night. I wasn't into sports, I wasn't a great student, I didn't go out for school activities or anything - I was just kind of into my own little world. But seeing The Beatles on screen, running around and laughing, plus seeing them play all these incredible songs, I started to think, 'Hey, I wouldn't mind doing that.' It was like The Beatles were their own gang, and that seemed so cool to me."

"Quite soon after, I started getting into the Stones and other British groups, and the idea of playing the guitar seriously and being in a band really took hold. I followed all The Beatles records, of course.

"What's funny is, even though they were making so many breakthroughs sonically and changing the way music could be presented, I didn't process it that way at the time.

"Everything seemed to flow so naturally from them. You'd pick up Rubber Soul and it was fantastic. Then you'd get Revolver and it was amazing, too. You just came to expect it from them. I had no idea what hard work went into doing what they did.

"Guitar-wise, it's hard to say specifically what I got from them, other than their licks became part of my DNA like so many of the British bands I stated to follow, like The Yardbirds and Cream and Zeppelin. It all became this fantastic cocktail of guitar greatness that I was only too happy to drink in.

"Later on, probably around the late '60s, when they were getting ready to break up, that's when I started to appreciate what geniuses The Beatles were, how they set trends and broke every rule in the book. How they went from being this live group to mastering the recording studio and showing everybody that nothing was impossible, as long as you had the imagination and the guts to go for it.

"Plus, they had gone from singing these simple love tunes to writing songs about any topic you could think of. I think that's what really impressed me the most - they taught me that music could liberate you, teach you, take you somewhere else, expand your consciousness, all of that.

"The Beatles taught us all so much. They taught us to be brave, to follow our dreams and aim high. That's a wonderful legacy to leave."

• The Beatles memang pengaruh yang besar pada Aerosmith, mereka ada cover beberapa lagu Beatles seperti "I'm Down", "Helter Skelter" dan "Come Together". Juga sebuah lagu John Lennon "Give Peace a Chance".
• Tu belum kira diorang nyanyi sikit-sikit dalam tour seperti lagu "Hey Jude" dan "Wait".
• Trademark jeritan klimaks Steven Tyler yang bunyik "wa ta tau wa tak tau tak tau!" tu pun rasanya originated dari jeritan ad-lib Paul McCartney masa lagu "Hey Jude". Contoh terbaik cuba bandingkan masa klimaks lagu "Hey Jude" dengan Aerosmith "Amazing".
• Klimaks Steven Tyler yang paling mengarut sampai orang tak paham apa boleh dengar kat lagu "Draw The Line" huhuhu. Kena tengok lirik baru faham.

The Beatles: Remastered

We are delighted to announce the release of the original Beatles catalogue, which has been digitally re-mastered for the first time, for worldwide CD release on Wednesday, September 9, 2009 (9-9-09), the same date as the release of the widely anticipated "The Beatles: Rock Band" video game. Each of the CDs is packaged with replicated original UK album art, including expanded booklets containing original and newly written liner notes and rare photos. For a limited period, each CD will also be embedded with a brief documentary film about the album. On the same date, two new Beatles boxed CD collections will also be released.

The albums have been re-mastered by a dedicated team of engineers at EMI's Abbey Road Studios in London over a four year period utilising state of the art recording technology alongside vintage studio equipment, carefully maintaining the authenticity and integrity of the original analogue recordings. The result of this painstaking process is the highest fidelity the catalogue has seen since its original release.

The collection comprises all 12 Beatles albums in stereo, with track listings and artwork as originally released in the UK, and 'Magical Mystery Tour,' which became part of The Beatles' core catalogue when the CDs were first released in 1987. In addition, the collections 'Past Masters Vol. I and II' are now combined as one title, for a total of 14 titles over 16 discs. This will mark the first time that the first four Beatles albums will be available in stereo in their entirety on compact disc. These 14 albums, along with a DVD collection of the documentaries, will also be available for purchase together in a stereo boxed set.
packaging

Within each CD's new packaging, booklets include detailed historical notes along with informative recording notes. With the exception of the 'Past Masters' set, newly produced mini-documentaries on the making of each album, directed by Bob Smeaton, are included as QuickTime files on each album. The documentaries contain archival footage, rare photographs and never-before-heard studio chat from The Beatles, offering a unique and very personal insight into the studio atmosphere.

A second boxed set has been created with the collector in mind. 'The Beatles in Mono' gathers together, in one place, all of the Beatles recordings that were mixed for a mono release. It will contain 10 of the albums with their original mono mixes, plus two further discs of mono masters (covering similar ground to the stereo tracks on 'Past Masters'). As an added bonus, the mono "Help!" and "Rubber Soul" discs also include the original 1965 stereo mixes, which have not been previously released on CD. These albums will be packaged in mini-vinyl CD replicas of the original sleeves with all original inserts and label designs retained.

Discussions regarding the digital distribution of the catalogue will continue. There is no further information available at this time.

Pendidikan Muzik.

KANAK-kanak yang didedahkan dengan muzik akan lebih kreatif dan mengapresiasi muzik apabila mereka dewasa kelak. - Gambar Hiasan.

Apa pentingnya pendidikan muzik di sekolah?
Utusan Malaysia online. 29 Julai 2009 / 7 Syaaban 1430

RAMAI orang terutamanya dari negara dunia ketiga termasuklah di Malaysia menganggap muzik tidak penting. Muzik sering dikaitkan untuk tujuan berhibur semata-mata tetapi kalau boleh bikin duit, itu paling bagus.

Sebabnya, di negara kita tidak ramai yang telah menjadi kaya raya kerana muzik. Kalau ada pun, bilangannya boleh dibilang dengan jari.

Lebih baik jadi doktor, peguam atau apa juga pekerjaan yang lain. Sebagai budak pejabat sekali pun tidak mengapa. Sekurang-kurangnya mereka ada gaji tetap setiap bulan.

Itu mentaliti kita tentang muzik. Kita hanya melihat muzik daripada skop yang cukup sempit. Bidang muzik atau peranannya dianggap tidak penting seperti kerjaya-kerjaya lain.

Seolah-olah kita menidakkan kekuatan spiritual alunan tiupan saksofon pemuzik seperti Kenny G misalnya, berbanding terapi seorang doktor sakit jiwa terhadap pesakitnya.

Mentaliti itu timbul antara lain kerana kita terlalu memikirkan bagaimana mahu 'membuat duit' daripada muzik. Sedangkan kita malas berfikir bagaimana mahu menjadikan muzik lebih bernilai daripada duit.

baca seterusnya di sini.

Recorder. Pergi kelas muzik masuk kat kocek terjojol jek.


Dulu-dulu masa saya sekolah rendah ada mengikuti kelas Pendidikan Muzik.
Kalau sampai hari yang ada kelas Muzik mesti sibuk nak kena bawak RECORDER.
Recorder ni kira main instrument lah yang wajib dibeli. Harga dulu RM 5.
Ada jugak yang tertinggal recorder sibuk pergi kelas sebelah pinjam dari kawan. Dah satu hal nak basuh muncung recorder tu. Dulu masa bebudak kan allergi na dengan airliur member sendiri.
Saya memang fail main alat muzik jenis bertiup ni. Ingat lagi ada satu masa tu . Abang opis boy sekolah duduk lepak kat kelas kitaorang main recorder buat lagu-lagu Melayu Deli, gerek seh...
Kalau masuk kelas muzik memang enjoy.

Macam-macam alat muzik kami mainkan. Ada melodian, Castanets, Triangle, drum (biasanya single snare drum aje), cymbal, angklung.
Sesiapa bertuah dapat merasa main keyboard. Selalu keyboard ni Cikgu Muzik yang guna.
Ada masa kena belajar note muzik, dari situ lah kenal togeh togeh ni semua. Semibrive, minim, krocet, treble klef huhuhu...

Melodian. Kena tiup baru buleh tekan key dan keluar lah bunyi dia..

Kalau lagu-lagu zaman sekolah dulu pun best jugak. Very simple, straight forward, punkrock lirik dia gitu. Tapi ingat lupa dah senikatanya,

Lagu: 3 Sekawan

Ada seorang kawan namanya Ah Meng,
Dia juga berkawan namanya Muthu, Kami berkawan baik sama sedarjah,
Belajar bersama main bersama,
Hey...hey....hey
Hey...hey....hey 3 sekawan.

Lagu: Aku Burung

Aku burung, Di dalam sangkar, Hidup terkurung, Hatiku susah,
Ingin aku terbang bebas, berkawan kawan tinggi di awan.

Lagu:Ais kacang

Ais.... Ais kacang, Bila cuaca panas dan rasa dahaga,
Singgah di gerai....ais kacang diminta,
Susu dan jagung, Kacang dan lengkong, Air gula berwarna,
manis rasanya, Enak rasanya.... Kegemaran kita semua.

Lagu : Burung tiung.

Aku burung burung tiung berseri, hidup di dalam sangkar ku ini ,
suaraku seperti manusia bertegur dan bertanya siapa ,
aku burung burung tiung sungguh pandai menyanyi,
aku burung burung tiung sungguh pandai menyanyi.

Dimasterkan kembali 090909. Can I have one, or two or more ? Huhuhu...

Dah lama berita ni, saja nak review balik pasal dah dekat nak bulan 9.

ラウドネス, Raudonesu - Never Again

.
Munetaka Higuchi, December 24, 1958 - November 30, 2008


Lost in a dream
In a dream of you
All that’s left is a tear
That I cried for you

When you held me in your arms
You made me feel just like a child
Safe from all harm

Once in love, now it’s gone
And I stand alone
There’s a place in my heart
You still have a home

And I’m holding onto dreams
And the memories of you
Haunting my soul

Never again will I wake and see you smile
Never again will I hold you
Never again, no more planning for tomorrow
Never again tells a story

It seems so, so long ago
When you held me near
I can’t take all the pain
It’s so hard to bear

Still I’m holding onto dreams
And the memories of you
Haunting my soul

Never again will I wake and see you smile
Never again will I hold you
Never again, no more planning for tomorrow
Never again tells the story

Never again
Never again
Never again
Never again

Lawa lah header tribute to Munetaka Higuchi ni. Dari laman web rasmi Raudonesu.

Apa cerita Michael Vescera eh? Boleh lagi ke dia tarik suara macam dulu-dulu?


The band confirmed that, despite the recent loss of drummer Munetaka Higuchi, they would be recording a brand new studio album, reported by Takasaki entitled The Everlasting. The new material is based on drum tracks recorded by Higuchi before his death, much in the same way that Queen's 1995 album, Made in Heaven, was based around vocal tracks left behind by their late singer, Freddie Mercury.

Album baru pun dah keluar, tak tahu lah dah ada di pasaran Malaysia atau belum.

Mr Big Reunion world tour 2009, ohh Superfantastic!

.

Mr Big 2009, dah 20 tahun dah diorang ni.

Baca kat blog speed, pagi ni saya baru tahu yang Mr. Big dah mulakan siri Reunion Tour 2009 dengan anggota asal. Ah rindu nak tengok Paul Gilbert perform sama-sama Mr. Big atas pentas.
Idea asal bagaimana punca reunion ni terjadi memang menarik:

1. Paul Gilbert dan Billy Sheehan start jamm bersama dalam projek tribute to The Who.
   
2. Semua anggota Mr.Big (tidak termasuk penyanyi, Eric Martin) jamm sama-sama dalam show Paul Gilbert di House of Blues , West Hollywood, California. Yang menariknya Ritchie Kotzen pun join sekali!
3. Ada orang buat prank pada semua anggota asal Mr.Big, menyamar jadi wakil Konsert Rocklahoma Festival 2008 mempelawa mereka join dalam konsert itu. Jemputan dilakukan melalui e-mail secara berasingan. Eric Martin yang memang dah lama tak berhubungan dengan rakan lamanya mula menghubungi Billy Sheehan untuk comfirmations. Mula dari situ mereka terus berutusan E-mail.
4. Billy Sheehan beri hadiah krismas kepada anak Eric Martin yang berupa sebuah gitar bass custom-made kecik yang menyerupai bass Billy Sheehan. Menurut Eric Martin, part ni la yang betul-betul menjernihkan suasana antara mereka berdua.

Saya dulu memang ada rasa mereka akan bergabung semula pada masa-masa akan datang. Last konsert farewell mereka di Budokan dengan gitaris Ritchie Kotzen pun ada dirakam dalam DVD.
Saya ada album (keset) Hey Man, Get Over It dan kompilasi Deep Cut. Mp3 studio album complete semuanya.
My favourite songs: Green-tinted Sixties Mind, Just Take My Heart, Nothing but Love, Wild World, Dancing Right Into The Flame dan Take Cover.

So next stop Singapore ada sesiapa nak turun?
