The Marvelettes Good Luck Charm

Elvis Presley may be the single most important figure in American 20th century popular music. Not necessarily the best, and certainly not the most consistent. But no one could argue with the fact that he was the musician most responsible for popularizing rock & roll on an international level. Viewed in cold sales figures, his impact was phenomenal. Dozens upon dozens of international smashes from the mid-'50s to the mid-'70s, as well as the steady sales of his catalog and reissues since his death in 1977, may make him the single highest-selling performer in history.

The Waterboys, one of the most creative, loved and literate bands of the last four decades, return this summer with their 14th studio album Good Luck, Seeker. Comprising dramatic spoken-word over wild, relentless genre-busting music (is it psychedelic soul? Is it trance? punk?), My Wanderings In The Weary Land might just be the greatest rock’n’roll record ever made – and one that is darkly appropriate to our weird, wired times.

The Waterboys will release a new album, Good Luck, Seeker in August.

Are you more like The Beatles or the Stones ? Kinks ! There are many who chant this name when the famous question sounds. For while the Davies brothers gang never achieved the public success of its two "rivals" , it remains one of the most important and most influential rock bands of the 60s / 70s.Like Lennon/McCartney and Jagger/Richards, Ray Davies was able to challenge himself and thus offer a wide stylistic palette. The Kinks did everything. Rock imbued with rhythm'n'blues and blues, garage rock, stadium rock, Elizabethan rock, country, classic pop, folk, cabaret, etc. but their real uniqueness is to have remained the most british of all English bands of that time.

Beginning with a 600-meter descent into the depths of the earth, Good Luck shines a flashlight onto the human face of labor in the time-warp'd working conditions of an underground state-owned mine in Serbia. The hiss of oxygen cuts through the diesel rumble, the walls of the office vibrate with explosions two levels below; war-torn and half-forgotten, these miners' physical struggle finds its mirror a continent away - in the tropical heat of an illegal Surinamese gold mine. The water pumps roar under the blinding sun; silver liquid rolls across the hand of a Saramaccan Maroon as he adds mercury to dirt in a never-ending search for gold….
