Modest Reception

Welcome - Welcome (1976) [Japanese Edition 2020] Music

Posted by gribovar at Nov. 10, 2020

The members of Welcome recorded their debut album in 1975 at Aquarius Studios in Geneva on the EMI/Swiss label to modest reception. The young trio embarked upon a small series of live shows in an attempt to promote the record, but lagging sales and lack of publicity led to the departure of bassist Francis Yost, who was replaced by Helmi Erdinger around the time of the band's second and final release, "You're Welcome". Welcome's music is distinctly in the vein of the early seventies, owing much of their sound to Yes ala "Relayer". The production quality of their studio releases is rather uneven, and is characterized by sometimes wavering harmony vocals, heavy mellotron and Hammond, and rather sparse guitar work. The band appears to have moved toward a more commercial sound with their second release.

Partners in Print: Artistic Collaboration and the Ukiyo-e Market by Julie Nelson Davis
English | 2015 | ISBN: 0824839382 | 266 pages | PDF | 7.62 MB

This compelling account of collaboration in the genre of ukiyo-e (pictures of the floating world) offers a new approach to understanding the production and reception of print culture in early modern Japan. It provides a corrective to the perception that the ukiyo-e tradition was the product of the creative talents of individual artists, revealing instead the many identities that made and disseminated printed work.

After an initially modest public reception, the oratorio gained in popularity, eventually becoming one of the best-known and most frequently performed choral works in Western music.
