Baby Face Willette - Stop and Listen (1961) [RVG Edition 2009] Music

Posted by gribovar at Aug. 4, 2024

Probably the greatest set in Baby Face Willette's all-too-slim discography, Stop and Listen matches the organist with the hugely sympathetic team of guitarist Grant Green and drummer Ben Dixon (the same trio lineup who recorded Green's debut LP, Grant's First Stand). With no saxophonist this second time around, it's just Willette and Green in the solo spotlight, and they play marvelously off of one another. As a soloist, Willette has a nimble, airy touch, and though he owes no debt to the modal style of Larry Young, he has a greater melodic imagination than many of his instrument's straight blues players…

The True Adventures of Raoul Walsh Movies

Posted by at Jan. 10, 2023

The True Adventures of Raoul Walsh (2014)
This is the first feature-length documentary on legendary director Raoul Walsh. In this 'memoir,' Walsh 'recounts' his career from the silent film era to the tumultuous 1960s. The documentary makes stunning use of rare, personal and production photos and footage, revealing Walsh's extraordinary, adventurous life on and off the set. From his apprenticeship with D.W. Griffith to his discovery of John Wayne and Rock Hudson, from the innovative 'The Thief of Bagdad' (1924) to the widescreen 'The Big Trail' (1930), from his classic work with Cagney, Bogart and Flynn to his mastery of every genre (musicals, comedies, Westerns, gangster, war), Walsh made Hollywood history. His life is nothing less than the story of Hollywood itself. Here's a full-bodied account of one of Hollywood's greatest legends.

Raoul Pupo - Adriatico amarissimo. Una lunga storia di violenza eBooks & eLearning

Posted by Karabas91 at Oct. 19, 2021

Le terre dell’Adriatico orientale sono state uno dei laboratori della violenza politica del ʼ900: scontri di piazza, incendi, ribellioni militari come quella di D’Annunzio, squadrismo, conati rivoluzionari, stato di polizia, persecuzione delle minoranze, terrorismo, condanne del tribunale speciale fascista, pogrom antiebraici, lotta partigiana, guerra ai civili, stragi, deportazioni, fabbriche della morte come la Risiera di San Sabba, foibe, sradicamento di intere comunità nazionali. Queste esplosioni di violenza sono state spesso studiate con un’ottica parziale, e quasi sempre all’interno di una storia nazionale ben definita – prevalentemente quella italiana o quella jugoslava (slovena e croata) –, scelta questa che non può che originare incomprensioni e deformazioni interpretative..

The Hammond organ, named after its inventor Laurens Hammond, debuted in 1935 as a cost-effective electro-acoustic alternative to the gigantic pipe organs mainly installed in churches. Among Hammond’s first customers were George Gershwin and Count Basie. Jazz pianists like Basie, Fats Waller, Wild Bill Davis and Milt Buckner were the founding fathers of the instrument’s international conquest, which led across all styles of popular music, from jazz to progressive rock, with its heyday in the 1960s and '70s…

FLAC tracks | 1:24:27 | 343 Mb
Genre: Jazz / Label: HHO

To tell the story of Ray Charles is to tell the story of a song genius touched, from his earliest childhood, by Grace. Like an alchemist, all melodies borrowed or created by this pianist-singer-composer-arranger turn into gold. We understand the nicknames that the American showbiz will give him, "the Genius" or " the High Priest of Soul ", but none will surpass the one that his friends musicians gave him : "Brother Ray", a nickname that tells the strength and intimacy that emerges from his voice nourished at the sources of blues and jazz.
