Buddy Miles - The Segment

The Meltdown. It’s a bold, brassy, twangy steam train of bumping backbeats and swinging shuffles. Then there’s that voice. Sweet as honey. The voice is soul, but it’s country too and something else indefinable; like you heard it before but don’t know where… Introducing Better Days, The Meltdown’s first release on HopeStreet Recordings.

There’s a fair chance you haven’t heard that voice before, because for the last few years Simon Burke has been flying small planes out of small airfields in the dusty backcountry and taking refuge from the hustle and grind of the music business to raise a young family. The time off has been fruitful. A lifetime of writing and experience is condensed into a golden set of songs and a killer new band, The Meltdown, which Simon formed in collaboration with saxophonist and arranger Lachlan McLean. Great vibe, great players, great sound, but it’s the songs that are king here.

There are a lot of soul revival bands around, but the Meltdown’s angle is different  – Simon and Lachlan are both pretty country and The Meltdown has more than a bit of that Ray Charles country via gospel thing, and a taste of dirty blues in it too. Echoes of towns like Euroa and Avenel, where the boys blew in from, or just artistic license? Either way, if there’s one thing that soul and country can both do for you, it’s songs about heartbreak, so here’s some rippers. Ladies and gentlemen, let us introduce to you the inimitable voice and songwriting of Mr Simon Burke. And yes, in advance, you’re welcome.

Buddy Miles - Working Harder Every Day

Son muchos los tributos discográficos hechos a la memoria y música del gran Jimi Hendrix, unos sinceros como el fabuloso IN FROM THE STORM, y otros oportunistas como STONE FREE donde figuraban artistas que dudosamente habrán puesto un disco de Jimi en su vida (me refiero a The Cure y Seal). Este que nos ocupa es, como dicen Ustedes por allá en España, La Hostia !.
Uno de los mejores que haya yo escuchado y mi favorito indiscutible. Los autores de semejante maravilla son un trío que en los 90 se dio a la tarea de sacudir el circuito de clubes y pequeños teatros de Chicago bajo el nombre de MST. ¿ Sus integrantes ?, pues nada más y nada menos que el legendario baterista y recientemente fallecido BUDDY MILES junto al guitarrista KEVON SMITH y al bajista JOE THOMAS, ambos veteranos de la escena musical de Chicago y con un curriculum como autores, session men y acompañantes más que respetable.
Su incendiario directo les hizo salir de gira por varias ciudades de EUA y dar en 1.995 un saltito a Europa, participando en el New Morning Rock Heroes Festival en Ginebra, Suiza y su actuación está contenida en este CD. Algo curioso al repasar el setlist es que se incluye una sóla canción de Hendrix, una poderosa versión de RED HOUSE y espero que este no sea motivo para desanimar a los fans de Jimi a la hora de bajarlo pues, repito, este es uno de esos discos que al final te quedas con la boca abierta y con ganas de volver a presionar Play. Y es que aquí más que un tributo a las canciones de Jimi Hendrix lo que se celebra es el espíritu de la música misma, dónde la creatvidad y la calidad no tienen porqué ir divorciadas de la diversión, y en eso tanto Jimi como el propio Buddy Miles fueron dignos representantes; un espíritu que pareciera haberse ido, espantado por el marketing descarado, MTV, VH1 y demás bodrios mercantilistas. ¿ Quieres saber a qué suena ?, pues bájalo y descúbrelo tú mismo, seguro terminarás agregándolo a tu rotación de música junto al legendario "BAND OF GYPSYS".

“‘Baby’ has been a staple on just about every playlist/mixtape I’ve assembled in the past 3 years. It is nothing short of sublime.” – Ariel Pink

Originally released in 1979, "Dreamin’ Wild" is the sonic vision of the talented Emerson boys, recorded in a family built home studio in rural Washington State. Situated in the unlikely blink-and-you-missed-it town of Fruitland and far removed from the late 1970s punk movement and the larger disco boom, Donnie and Joe tilled their own musical soil, channeling bedroom pop jams, raw funk, and yacht rock.



* First ever CD & LP reissue
* CD and LP include detailed liner notes by Dave Segal, interviewing the Emersons plus unseen photos
* 180-gram LP housed in gatefold "tip-on" jacket and includes download card for full album
* 25 random copies of LP include an original copy of Donnie & Joe's 1977 debut 45 single
