Firefall Live Denver

Willie Nelson Un monument national. Un mythe. Sur sa terre d’Amérique, Willie Nelson est considéré de la sorte. Une icône dépassant le strict cadre de la country music dont il changea la face durant les années 60 et 70. Quand un certain Miles Davis compose un morceau qu’il baptise de votre nom, on peut parler de consécration, non ?Plus de huit décennies passées sur terre et le grand songwriter à la voix de canard, vieux barbu fumant pétard sur pétard, a été canonisé avant même de caner… C’est pourtant dans l’ombre que Willie Nelson fera ses armes, plume en main, pour servir la voix des autres. Pour Ray Price (Night Life), Patsy Cline (Crazy), Faron Young (Hello Walls), Billy Walker (Funny How Time Slips Away) et quelques légions d’autres, le Texan a composé des merveilles devenues des classiques du patrimoine nord-américain.

One of the most popular recording artists of the 1970s, country-folk singer/songwriter John Denver's gentle, environmentally conscious music established him among the most beloved entertainers of his era; wholesome and clean-cut, his appeal extended to fans of all ages and backgrounds, and led to parallel careers as both an actor and a humanitarian. Born Henry John Deutschendorf in Roswell, NM, on December 31, 1943, he was raised in an Air Force family, and grew up in various regions of the southwestern U.S.

espite having released classic album after classic album during his lengthy career, the best way to witness the extraordinary power ofBob Seger and his Silver Bullet Band remains to be in a live setting.

Pure Prairie League is an American country rock band whose origins go back to 1965 and Waverly, Ohio, with singer and guitarist Craig Fuller, drummer Tom McGrail, guitarist and drummer Jim Caughlan and steel guitar artist John David Call. Fuller started the band in 1970 and McGrail named it after a fictional 19th century temperance union featured in the 1939 Errol Flynn cowboy film Dodge City. Pure Prairie League scored five consecutive Top 40 LPs in the 1970s and added a sixth in the 1980s. The band has had a long run, active from the early 1970s through the late 1980s. The band was revived in 1998 and again in 2004 and as of 2019 continues to perform over 100 concerts a year in venues across the nation. Concerts for 2020 have already been booked.

The mellow, easy country-rock sounds of Firefall, coupled with the group's penchant for pop melodies and high-pitched harmonies, produced a series of successful LPs in the late '70s and a series of chart singles, including the Top Ten hit "You Are the Woman." The group was formed by former Flying Burrito Brother Rick Roberts, who handled vocals, guitar, and most of the songwriting duties; he was joined by fellow ex-Burrito and Byrd Michael Clarke on drums, ex-Spirit and Jo Jo Gunne bassist Mark Andes, guitarist/vocalist Jock Bartley, guitarist/vocalist/songwriter Larry Burnett, and keyboardist/woodwind player David Muse, who joined in 1977. The group recorded its self-titled debut in 1976; it and its follow-up, Luna Sea, both went gold, and their third album, Elan, went platinum. However, the group's commercial fortunes began to decline, and even though Muse experimented with adding different instruments to the overall sound, Firefall's relaxed, toned-down approach simply wore out its welcome as pop trends moved elsewhere. Jock Bartley reformed the group in 1994 for the album Messenger……….
