Masters Of Reality - [1997] How High The Moon: Live At The Viper Room

Num vou ficar aqui falando mais uma vez o quanto eu acho o Chris Goss um gênio. Só falar que as inéditas desse ao vivo ("Alder Smoke Blues" e "Swingeroo Joe") e a participação de Scott Weilland do Stone Temple Pilots ("Jindalee Jindalie") valem o disco. Top 3: "Alder Smoke Blues", "Doraldina's Prophecies" e "Jindalee Jindalie". Pra quem gosta de: Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Cream, Queens Of The Stone Age, Unida.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everybody knows what I think about Chris goss. So, let's just listen to this great live record, in wich Chris put two new songs ("Alder Smoke Blues" and "Swingeroo Joe") and share vocals with Scott Weilland from Stone Temple Pilots ("Jindalee Jindalie"). Top 3: "Alder Smoke Blues", "Doraldina's Prophecies" , "Jindalee Jindalie". For those who likes: Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Cream, Queens Of The Stone Age, Unida.

Fleetwood Mac - [1969] Then Play On

Não é o melhor disco da fase com o Peter Green (English Rose é o melhor disparado), mas tem duas das melhores músicas da banda: "Oh Well" e "Rattlesnake Shake". O disco tem um clima meio Santana em algumas músicas, graças a percussão presente em quase todas as faixas. Bom disco. Top 3: "Coming Your Way", "Oh Well" , "Rattlesnake Shake". Pra quem gosta de: Santana, ZZ Top, Savoy Brown, Free e Yardbirds.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Not the best release on the Peter Green's era (English Rose is the best, for sure), but it have two of the best songs from the band: "Oh Well" e "Rattlesnake Shake".

Top 3: "Coming Your Way", "Oh Well" , "Rattlesnake Shake". For those who likes: Santana, ZZ Top, Savoy Brown, Free and Yardbirds.

Budgie - [1972] Squawk

Black Sabbath + Led Zeppelin + Beatles + David Bowie + Judas Priest = BUDGIE. De Iron Maiden à Mettalica, de Rush à Monster Magnet, de Alice In Chains à Soundgarden, o Budgie foi influencia declarada de todas essas bandas. Da bonitinha "Rolling Home Again" até o rockão de "Hot As A Docker's Armpit", tudo nesse disco é legal. Clássico. Top 3: "Rolling Home Again", "Hot As A Docker's Armpit" , "Young Is The World".

The Freewheelers - [1995] Waiting For George

Outra banda esquecida no tempo. Achei esse cd num sebo (loja de livros e discos usados) e não pensei duas vezes antes de comprar. A banda é uma espécie de herdeira do Joe Cocker & Maddogs and Englishmen e tem uma formação interessante com um tecladista e um pianista. Luther Russell, o vocalista/guitarrista montou tempos depois o Federale com o Marc Ford, ex-Black Crowes, mas essa é uma história pra uma outra ocasião. Top 3: "Best Be On Your Way" , "Ghost Of Tchoupitoulas St." , "Walkin' Funny". Pra aqueles que gostam de: Joe Cocker, Leon Russell, Elton John, Black Crowes e War.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another band that was forgotten. I've founded this record in an old record store in São Paulo and i don't think twice to buy it. What a great surprise! The sound is amazing, something like Joe Cocker & Maddogs and Englishmen with a curious formation with a keyboardist and a piano player. Later, Luther Russel (vocals, guitars), founded Federale with Marc Ford, ex-Black Crowes guitar player. This record is a forgotten gem. Top 3: "Best Be On Your Way" , "Ghost Of Tchoupitoulas St." , "Walkin' Funny". For those who likes: Joe Cocker, Leon Russell, Elton John, Black Crowes e War.

Cheap Trick - [1977] Cheap Trick

Cheap Trick fez um sucesso estrondoso nos EUA e no Japão, mas no Brasil passou desapercebido. Ainda sem abusar dos teclados, esse primeiro disco é o mais rock n roll e o mais inspirado deles. Clásssico. Top 3: "Daddy Should Have Stayed In High School" , "Cry, Cry" , "Speak Now Or Forever Hold Your Peace". Pra quem gosta de: Kiss, Beatles, Alice Cooper, The Who, The Kinks.

Danko Jones - [2003] Born A Lion

Danko Jones é um dos caras mais engraçados do rock. As expressões dele nos clipes são muito boas. Mas não é só isso, o som também é muito legal. Rock N' Roll na concepção clássica do termo, barulhento, divertido, ritmado e bem grudento. Fica na cabeça um tempão. Refrões, linhas vocais e de baixo pegajosos e guitarra econômica , sem aquele exagero de solos. Do tipo que você escuta de uma vez só inteiro. Dá uma ouvida aí! Top 3: "Lovercall" , "Soul On Ice" , "Word Is Bond". Pra quem gosta de: AC/DC, Kiss, Hellacopters, Thin Lizzy e Forgotten Boys.

----------------------------------------------------------

Danko Jones is one of the funniest guys in rock. His facial expressions in his videoclips are very good. But it's not only this, the sound is very cool to! Rock N' Roll with a classic vein combinated with a modern appeal. Noisy, dirty, catchy and dancin. The chorus, bass lines, vocal harmonies and the great guitar make this record go easily through the tracks in your stereo. Have fun! Top 3: "Lovercall" , "Soul On Ice" , "Word Is Bond". For those who likes: AC/DC, Kiss, Hellacopters, Thin Lizzy e Forgotten Boys.

Masters Of Reality - [1991] Sunrise On The Sufferbus

Esse disco é pra mim o que o Led Zeppelin II foi pra uma geração inteira. Infelizmente, esse som é completamente esquecido pelo mundo. Tudo nele é perfeito. Os riffs, os vocais, o baixo e a bateria pulsante, essa a cargo do Ginger Baker, aquele mesmo, do Cream. Chris Goss é um gênio pra mim e fácil fácil um dos guitarristas mais legais que já ouvi na minha vida. "J.B. Witchdance" tem uma levada e história muito legais e "Rolling Green" é uma das músicas mais bonitinhas que eu já ouvi. Mas o destaque é "100 Years (Of Tears In The Wind)". Uma das musicas mais sexys que eu já ouvi e que me lembra, sei lá por que, "We're Going Wrong" do Cream. Destaque também para as blueseiras "V.H.V." e "She Got Me (When She Got Her Dress On)". Até as vinhetas ("Madonna" e "Bycicle") são ótimas. Maravilhoso! Top 3: Todas são ótimas! Pra quem gosta de: Cream, Black Crowes, Budgie, Led Zeppelin e The Atomic Bitchwax.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

This record is for me what Led Zeppelin II was for a generation. Unfortunately, it's still underrated and forgotten. Everything here is perfect. The vocals, the guitar parts, bass lines and the presence of Ginger Baker (more known from a little band called Cream)... Chris Goss is a genius and one of the best guitar players i've ever heard. J.B. Witchdance, with lyrics about "naked witches dancing in the moonlight" and Rolling Green, one of the cutest songs I've ever heard, are one of the high points in this record. But the best song is 100 Years (Of Tears In The Wind), one of the sexiest songs that was made in the history. The blues numbers V.H.V and She Got Me (When She Got Her Dress On) shows the guitar skills of Goss and even the small ones , "Madonna" and "Bycicle" shows why this record is perfect. Wondeful! Top 3: only 3? Every song is top here! For those who likes: Cream, Black Crowes, Budgie, Led Zeppelin and The Atomic Bitchwax.

Thee Hypnotics - [1991] Soul, Glitter & Sin (Tales From The sonic Underworld)

O disco mais fraco da carreira deles começa bem com "Shakedown" mas lá pela metade do disco perde a força. Tanto que a banda parou pra uma folga depois desse disco. Voltaram dois anos depois para um ultimo (e ótimo) disco, "Very Speed Crystal Machine". Vale pela curiosidade. Top 3: "Shakedown" , "Kissed By The Flames" , "Point Blank 'Mistery". Pra quem gosta de: Stooges, Black Moses, MC5, Mudhoney e Jesus and The Mary Chain.

------------------------------------------------

Not of their best, but still a good record. It starts with the powerful rocker "Shakedown" but in the middle of the record, the song have a lack of power and inspiration. After this release, the band took 2 years before their last album, the great "Very Speed Crystal Machine". Top 3: "Shakedown" , "Kissed By The Flames" , "Point Blank 'Mistery".

Melissa Auf Der Maur - [2002] Hand Of Doom - Black Sabbath Tribute

Melissa Auf Der Maur juntou uns amigos quando estava desemprega e gravaram esse show tributo ao Black Sabbath. Aqui, ela faz todos os vocais do Ozzy, com exceção de "The Mob Rules", musica que originalmente tinha o Dio no vocal e nessa versão é cantada pelo Nick Olivieri (?!). Bem tocado, mas a voz dela deixa a desejar. Vale mais pela capa, hohoho. Top 3: "Hand Of Doom" , "Mob Rules", "Black Sabbath". Pra quem gosta de: Black Sabbath!

Melissa Auf Der Maur called some friends to do a Sabbath live tribute in 2002. In this show, she does all the Ozzy vocals, while Nick Olivieri does the only song from Dio era, "The Mob Rules".

Mark Lanegan - [2004] Bubblegum

Mark Lanegan contou com uma enxurrada de amigos (Chris Goss, Josh Homme, Nick Olivieri, PJ Harvey, Izzy Stradlin, etc.) pra gravar este que é seu ultimo disco solo. Desde então, ele esteve mais envolvido em parcerias (Queens Of The Stone Age, Isobel Campbell, Gutter Twins, etc...). Mais sujo e experimental que os antecessores, este disco é carregado de boas músicas, com exceção de "Can't Come Down" que é chatinha, chatinha. Um dos melhores de sua carreira. Top 3: "One Hundred Days" , "Like Little Willie John" , "Morning Glory Wine". Pra quem gosta de: Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, Robert Johnson, Queens Of The Stone Age e The Doors.

Mark Lanegan has a little help of his friends (Alain Johannes, Chris Goss, Josh Homme, Nick Olivieri, PJ Harvey, Izzy Stradlin, etc.) to record his last solo album.

More dirty and experimental than his predecessors, this record is full of good blues-based songs, with an exception of "Can't Come Down", wich is a little annoying. But this is easily one of his best records. Top 3: "One Hundred Days" , "Like Little Willie John" , "Morning Glory Wine".

The Kills - [2005] No Wow

Dessas novas bandas moderninhas, o The Kills é uma das minhas preferidas. O som é bem minimalista, baseado na guitarra do Hotel e no vocal da VV (sim, esses são os nomes do casalzinho). O som sujo combina muito com o vocal hora sussurrado, hora gritado dela. O problema é o visual. Muita pose! O clipe de The Good Ones até irrita. Mas o que importa é o som, que é bem legal com levadas que vão do blues até o punk, bem garageiro. Sonzão! Top 3: "No Wow / Telephone Radio Germany" , "Dead Road 7" , "Sweet Cloud". Pra quem gosta de: Duke Spirit, White Stripes, Black Keys, Stooges e Mark Lanegan.

------------------------------------

Among these new modernish bands, The Kills is one of my favourites. With a minimalistic sound, based on the fuzzy guitar of Hotel and in the bittersweet vocals of VV (yeah, this are their names) , they released this very good record in 2005. The only problem with them is the visual. Too much poser! The video of "The Good Ones" makes me want to die! But the music is what that matters, so they are forgiven. Enjoy! Top 3: "No Wow / Telephone Radio Germany" , "Dead Road 7" , "Sweet Cloud". Pra quem gosta de: Duke Spirit, White Stripes, Black Keys, Stooges and Mark Lanegan.

The Duke Spirit - [2008] Neptune

O segundo disco dessa nova banda inglesa tem a produção do Chris Goss (ele de novo por aqui) e me agradou muito. A vocalista Liela Moss tem uma voz muito legal e som tem boas levadas de guitarra. Melhor banda que apareceu no rock inglês dos ultimos anos. Não sei se é dedo do produtor, mas "Lassoo" me lembra "High Noon Amsterdam" do Masters Of Reality. Top 3: "The Step And The Walk" , "This Ship Was Built To Last" , "Lassoo". Pra quem gosta de: Oasis, The Kills, Patti Smith, The Jesus And Mary Chain e Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

-----------------------------------------------------

The second record from this new english band received the treatment of Chris Goss in the soundboard and really enjoys me. Liela Moss has a beautiful voice and the band is very cohesive too with good guitar rhythyms. One of the best bands that appear in British Rock in the last couple of years. Don't know if it is an influence of Goss in the production, but "Lassoo" reminds me "High Noon Amsterdam" from Masters Of Reality. Top 3:"The Step And The Walk" , "This Ship Was Built To Last" , "Lassoo". For those who likes: Oasis, The Kills, Patti Smith, The Jesus And Mary Chain e Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

The Byrds - [1968] The Notorious Byrd Brothers

Não consigo achar os Byrds essa grande banda que tanto falam. Claro que eles foram muito importante para um genêro mas mesmo assim não me convencem. Tem músicas muito legais (Eight Miles High, My Back Pages, You Ain't Going Nowhere, Old Blue, etc...) mas nunca os achei uma banda maravilhosa como tantos dizem. Tanto que neste disco, a melhor musica não entrou na versão original, aparecendo somente como bonus track anos depois. Estou falando de "Triad" que é a musica que causou a saída do David Crosby da banda. Essa musica é uma das mais "safadas" que eu já ouvi, pois se trata de um convite do homem a sua parceira para formarem um menage a trois com mais num sei quem, o que num era lá um assunto muito facil de se tratar na época. Ele queria a musica no disco e o resto da banda não. Deu no que deu. Top 3: "Draft Morning" , "Get To You" , "Triad". Pra quem gosta de: Bob Dylan, Buffalo Springfield, Grateful Dead, The Band e The Youngbloods.

--------------------------------------------------------

I never thought about The Byrds as great band like most of the people think. I think they are a little bit overrated. Obviously they have a bunch of good songs, but nothing that impressed me. The best song in this record was not in the original release. "Triad", a composition from David Crosby, was discard because it talks about menage a trois, wich is a tabboo at the time. Not a fantastic record, but enjoyable. Top 3: "Draft Morning" , "Get To You" , "Triad". For Those Who Likes: Bob Dylan, Buffalo Springfield, Grateful Dead, The Band and The Youngbloods.

Thee Hypnotics - [1990] Come Down Heavy

No final dos anos 80, o Thee Hypnotics apareceu na cena underground da Inglaterra causando furor na imprenssa britânica. Eram dados como a nova sensação da coisa toda mas, por algum motivo inexplicado até agora, alguém simplesmente desconversou o assunto. Daí pro esquecimento foi um pulo. E com certeza não é por causa do som, que é de ótima qualidade. Nem falta de carisma, já que o Jim Jones é um ótimo frontman, com muita presença. A coisa simplesmente não aconteceu. Entre 1989 e 1994, a banda soultou 4 discos e alguns singles com um som calcado em Stooges e Pretty Things com uma sujeira meio Mudhoney. Esse é o segundo disco deles, o primeiro em estúdio (sim, o primeiro foi ao vivo!). Agora em 2008 vai sair um documentário sobre a banda lá na Inglaterra. Bem que podia rolar uma reunião junto. No aguardo... Top 3: "Half Man, Half Boy" , "(Let It) Come Down Heavy" , "Revolution Stone". Pra quem gosta de: Mudhoney, Blue Cheer, Stooges, Pretty Things e MC5.

--------------------------------------------------------

At the end of 80's, Thee Hypnotics appears in the underground scene of England, making them the new favourites ones of UK press. But, for some reason that is still unknown, everything goin wrong with them, causing the break-up of the band in 1995. In this second record (the first one was recorded live!) the band shows a sound that approaches with the fuzz rock of Mudhoney, but a little more (obviously) english like Pretty Things. Pure Rock N' Roll!!! Top 3: "Half Man, Half Boy" , "(Let It) Come Down Heavy" , "Revolution Stone". For those who likes: Mudhoney, Blue Cheer, Stooges, Pretty Things e MC5.

Buffalo Springfield - [1967] Buffalo Springfield Again

Acho que o Buffalo Springfield é um pouco esquecido pelo mundo do rock. Esse segundo disco deles é, na minha opinião, um dos melhores dos anos 60. Neil Young começava a colocar as manguinhas de fora e o Stephen Stills se consolidava como um grande compositor. Apesar do disco ser muito bom, ele ja mostrava o fim dos tempos pra banda, que viria um ano depois com o Last Time Around. Discasso! Top 3: "Mr. Soul" , "Hung Upside Down" , "Sad Memory". Pra quem gosta de: The Band, Jefferson Airplane, The Byrds, The Hollies e Big Star.

-------------------------------------------------------

I think Buffalo Springfield deserves more recognizement from Rock N' Roll world Their second record is easily, in my humble opinion, one of the best from 60's. Here, Neil Young starts to show his talent and Stephen Stills consolidate his song writing. But this record was the beginning of the end, wich comes in Last Time Around one year after. Classic. Top 3: "Mr. Soul" , "Hung Upside Down" , "Sad Memory". For Those Who Likes: The Band, Jefferson Airplane, The Byrds, The Hollies and Big Star.

Lançado em 1999, esse split é dividido entre o Unida, banda que John Garcia (Ex-Kyuss) formou após acabar precocemente com o Slo-Burn, e pelo Dozer, banda vinda lá da Suécia. O som é legal, mas o Unida deixa um pouco a desejar se comparado com o Kyuss ou o Slo-Burn. O Dozer também num mostra nada além de um stoner rock um pouco óbvio até. Mas é discografia básica para os amantes do genero. Top Unida: "Flower Girl". Top Dozer: "Headed For The Sun". Pra quem gosta de: Kyuss, Slo-Burn, Nebula, Fu Manchu e Beaver.

Release in 1999, this split is shared between Unida, band of John Garcia (Ex-Kyuss and Slo-Burn) and Dozer, band from Sweeden. The songs are ok, but in the case of Unida, is a little disapointing if you compare these songs with work of John Garcia in his previous bands. Dozer sound ok too, but a little obvious. But it`s still a classic of the genre. "Flower Girl". Top Dozer: "Headed For The Sun". For those who likes: Kyuss, Slo-Burn, Nebula, Fu Manchu and Beaver.
