This very well known song (written by Johnny Christopher, Mark James and Wayne Carson Thompson and originally recorded by Brenda Lee in 1972) is one of my own personal favourites of all the instrus I've ever cut, at least as far as the ballad side of matters are concerned! I've always thought it's got a very beautiful melody and very nice chord change progression and it seems like it's almost impossible to make a bad version of it! My own version is extremely scaled down on purpose, so not to interfer too much with the melody. Cut in august, 1997 in the middle of the night, together with a song of a similar mood, "Crazy" (the famous Patsy Cline country ballad). And, once again, you don't need any high tech digital equipment to get pretty decent results. This track was cut on a 6-track Sansui cassette deck, using a Takamine acoustic and a Charvel electric, both run through a Jerry Donahue Sessionmaster preamp (terrific gadget!). And the Alesis SR-16 drum machine was manually triggered from a set of drum pads lined up like real live drums and played that way! Hope you like it...
The best version ever of "My Girl Josephine" (also known as "Hello Josephine") must surely be credited to Jerry Jaye and his brilliant HI label version featuring session ace Reggie Young on guitar. Whatever happened to Jerry Jaye after this smasharoonie is a mystery, cause most of the stuff he cut afterwards was pretty blatant in comparison. Penned by Antoine "Fats" Domino, who's own original version is unbelievable lame (the best and most outragious rocker that Fats ever cut in his entire career is undoubtedly "I'm Ready", at least in my book!), but then I've never been a fan of the New Orleans side of 'rock', with it's pre-arranged brass arrangements and often 'sound-a-like' results. The only label that really hit the target in that department was undoubtedly Specialty with it's huge rooster of screamin' rockers with a certain Mr. Penniman leading the way! Watch out for the intro and outro on this one, it may surprise you (in a funny kinda way, I hope, lol!). Rock on...
En la web de Johnny Winter hay una biografía oficial que vale la pena; tampoco os perdáis esta entrada en El Anecdotario del Rock, en la que se recoge la primera vez que Johnny toco junto a B.B.King. Para rematar, podéis pasaros por esta entrevista de El rincón del rock.
Pero la mejor forma de celebrar un cumpleaños como este es, claro, con la música del homenajeado.
La primera éste Mean Town Blues que estaba en aquel disco increíble
Para seguir con el clásico Jumping jack flash, del que se ve que dijo Keith Richards que le gusta más cómo lo toca Johnny.
Y la versión de Highway 61 que parece gustarle tanto a Dylan
Hay más....mucho más... buen día para escuchar a Johnny y celebrar esos 65 años de música alucinante.
Here we go again with yet another homage to the great SUN coy (even though this one was originally released on the SUN subsidiary label, Phillips Int'l)...Bill Justis' big selling instru hit, "Raunchy" (also covered by Billy Vaughan's Orchestra on the Dot label). Not much to say about it other than it was included in the batch of 62 tracks I recorded in 1997 in my living room on a 6-track Sansui MR-66 cassette deck. Enjoy...
Eddie Cochran escribió con Jerry CapehartSummentime blues. Uno de esos temas simples, sencillos y directos que ha sido interpretado un una cantidad de gentes que casi asusta.
Eddie Cochran
I’m gonna raise a fuss, I’m gonna raise a holler About a workin’ all summer just to try to earn a dollar Every time I call my baby, and ask to get a date My boss says, “No dice son, you gotta work late” Sometimes I wonder what I’m a gonna do But there ain’t no cure for the summertime blues
Well my mom and pop told me, “Son you gotta make some money” If you want to use the car to go ridin’ next Sunday Well I didn’t go to work, told the boss I was sick “Well you can’t use the car ’cause you didn’t work a lick” Sometimes I wonder what I’m a gonna do But there ain’t no cure for the summertime blues
I’m gonna take the weeks, gonna have a fine vacation I’m gonna take my problem to the United Nations Well I called my congressman and he said “Whoa!” “I’d like to help you son but you’re too young to vote” Sometimes I wonder what I’m a gonna do But there ain’t no cure for the summertime blues
Ahora, pasen y vean las interpretaciones de The Who, Van Halen, T Rex, Rush, Stray Cats, Deborah Harry, Simple Minds, R&B All Stars, Bruce Springsteen y Tom Petty.
No podemos poner la magistral versión de Robert Gordon & Link Wray; pero la podéis disfrutar aquí.
The rockin' continues...this time I'm strolling down the lane of the world's most important roots music label EVER, the Yellow SUN Label out of Memphis, Tenn. The home and starting place of the most amazing rooster of roots music talent on the face of the planet!!!! Elvis, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Jerry Lee, Charlie Rich, Carl Mann, Rufus Thomas Jr., Dr. Ross, Charlie Feathers, Warren Smith, Billy Riley, Ray Smith, Bill Justis...the list goes on and on!! Not to mention the truckload of blues greats that Sam Phillips recorded (such as Howlin' Wolf, Sleepy John Estes, B.B. King, Walter Horton, Honeyboy Edwards, Little Walter, Earl Hooker, etc) and icenced to independent labels like 4 Star, Modern, RPM, Chess, Gilt-Edge, Trumpet, Duke, Checker, J-B, etc. Not bad for a small independent one man operation that once was described as (quote): "A hole in the wall completely surrounded by Cadillacs"!! The track I've pulled out of my tape library for this upload is yet another little toe-tapper that I recorded in (you guessed it!) the '70s, the College Kids' (Wade Moore & Dick Penner) SUN rockabilly jumper, "Bop, Bop Baby"! Straight ahead one take only (on all accounts) and a fun one to stick your teeths into! Hope you get as much pleasure out of it as I did recording it! Get with it...
This video shows the song "Maid of the Mist" with the drummer and the guitar solo (from the 3:20)in the Fernando Asensi studio at Massanassa (Valencia).
A short history from the band's MySpace
Mortis Cruentus se formó el 1 de noviembre de 2003, bajo el nombre de “Dark Wood”, la banda comenzó practicando un Black Metal crudo y directo. Pronto se cambió el nombre a “Mortis Cruentus” porque se adecuaba mas al estilo que se transmitía en esos primeros años.
Tras varios cambios en la formación, solo permanece en ella uno de sus miembros fundadores, Luis (bajo). Las sucesivas incorporaciones fueron aportando nuevos matices a la música de Mortis Cruentus. Primero fue Dani (batería), con el que el grupo se estrenó en su primer directo. Mas tarde llegaría Miguel (guitarra). Puesto que la formación contaba hasta ese momento con una sola guitarra, esta incorporación supuso un gran avance en la calidad y consistencia de los temas. Posteriormente entraría Juan P. (voz), un cantante con mucha experiencia que aportó un mayor carácter y dureza en las voces. Finalmente la última incorporación fue la de Toño (guitarra rítmica) debido a la marcha de el otro miembro fundador que aún permanecía en el grupo, que a su vez era principal compositor de los temas hasta ese momento.
En 2007 se editó de forma autoproducida una demo de dos canciones. Esta es la primera incursión del grupo en un estudio de grabación y se compone de los temas, Maid of the Mist y After Dusk. En verano de 2008 entra al grupo como guitarra solista el Sabater sustituyendo a Miguel. Con la actual formación, el grupo no ha parado de trabajar en la búsqueda de un sonido personal y lleno de detalles provenientes de una amplia gama de estilos. Cada miembro del grupo aporta una visión diferente del mundo que se refleja en la composición de los temas, hecho que ha desembocado en un viraje desde el Black de la vieja escuela hasta un Death Melódico en el que entran también otros elementos, incluso sin olvidarse de esos inicios.
A final de 2008 el grupo graba su primer disco “Agony as Doom” de forma autoproducida, con fecha de salida para enero de 2009.
Mortis Cruentus Formed the 1 of November of 2003, under the name of “Dark Wood”, the band began practicing a crude and direct Black Metal. Soon the name changed to “Mortis Cruentus” because it was more adapted to the style that transmitted in those first years.
After several changes in the line-up, only remains one of its founder members, Luis (Bass). The successive incorporations were contributing new shades to the music of Mortis Cruentus. First it was Dani (Drums), with that the band gave its first concert. Later, would arrive Miguel (Lead Guitars). Until that moment the formation counted with a single guitar, for that reason, this incorporation supposed a great advance in the quality and consistency of the songs. Then, would enter Juan P. (voice), a singer with much experience that contributed to a greater character and hardness in the voices. Finally the last incorporation was Toño (Guitars) due to the march of the other founder member that still remained in the group, that he was main composer of the themes until that moment.
In 2007 edited a demo of two songs in a self-produced way. This is the first experience of the group in a study and composes of the songs, Maid of the Mist and After Dusk. In summer of 2008 goes in to the group like lead guitar Alejandro Sabater substituting to Miguel. With the current line-up, the band has not stopped to work in the search of a personal sound, plenty of originating details of an ample range of styles. Each member of the band contributes with his different vision from the world that it is reflected in the composition of the songs, fact that has ended at a turn from the Black of the old school to a Melodic Death that other elements also enter, even without forgetting those beginnings.
To end of 2008 the group records his first album “Agony as Doom” in a self-produced way, with date to exit for January of 2009.
De la mano de titobene, tenemos un nuevo vídeo de LOS ELECTRICOS. Esta vez es el tema "A tu sombra" en el concierto del pasado 7 de febrero en el Espai Jove de l'Eixample.

AUDITORI LES BASSES Sábado, 21 de Febrero a las 21:00h. C/ Teide 20 Metro Vilapicina L5 NOU BARRIS (BCN)
Ya han pasado dos días desde la sexta edición del Kanya!! A San Climent VI, festival que a estas alturas podemos decir es uno de los más importantes de metal extremo de este país. Y siendo sinceros, eso se debe sobre todo al precio, en un principio gratuito, esta vez 8€. Para los que no hayan ido con el pretexto de que era muy caro: mejor empezad a rezar para que vuelvan a tocar estas bandas a solo 1€ por grupo. Llegamos a la entrada de la sala en el autocar gratuito que este año circulaba de Viladecans a San Climent, y entramos después de comprar la entrada y discutir, como cientos de personas esa noche, con el personal de seguridad. Pero es algo intrínseco de naturaleza, así que los respetamos e ignoramos respetuosamente.
Empezó el concierto con la banda Trobar de Morte, una banda de Folk Medieval bastante tranquila, que unos creen que no pintaban demasiado en el concierto de esa noche y otros piensan que como introducción a lo que vendría después estuvieron muy bien. Sobrantes o no, contaron con un sonido bastante bueno y lo hicieron bien. Despues de ellos vinieron los barceloneses Unbounded Sadism. Nada que ver con el grupo anterior, ya que tocan Grind-Death Metal. Quien más destaco fue su cantante, que no estuvo quieto ni un solo momento. Tocaron temas rápidos y muy seguidos, sin demasiada pausa entre ellos.
El siguiente grupo en tocar fue Death Over Threat, banda valenciana de Thrash Metal. Estos, a diferencia del resto de bandas, tuvieron problemas de sonido de todo tipo: no se escuchaba una guitarra, luego la otra, después el cantante tuvo que cambiar su guitarra cantando a la vez porque no funcionaba…Aun así el grupo parecía animado y bromeaban sobre ello. También hay que decir que mucha gente esperaba verlos tocar, sobre todo por las buenas referencias después de tocar junto a Necronomicon y Aggression en Madrid el mes pasado. Lux Divina salieron a tocar y, para sorpresa de los componentes de Death Over Threat, no tuvieron ningún problema con el sonido, o por lo menos nadie lo notó. Black Metal bastante melódico, mezclado también con algunas voces limpias. Despues de Lux Divina les tocó el turno a Setge, grupo de Black-Death Metal. Sin ánimo alguno de adular al organizador (Jose es el batería de Setge) hay que decir que Setge estuvieron geniales, nos gustaron a todos, incluso a los que vinieron a verlos algo desconfiados por el mal sonido que tuvieron en un concierto pasado en Metal Zone. Su cantante Aamon también sorprendió a algunos que esperaban que en el escenario fuese una persona tranquila, y realmente fue todo lo contrario.
Foscor fueron los siguientes en subir al escenario. Foscor es una banda barcelonesa de Black Metal, de las más importantes. Tocaron temas como “I torná de les cendres” o “L’ombra de l’adicció”, bastante crudos y rápidos. Después de Foscor empezó una de las dos bandas cabezas de cartel, Avulsed. Es quizá la banda mas importante de Death Metal del país, y también es todo un icono del Metal Underground Extremo en el resto del mundo. Gracias a su participación en este año se ha podido montar un cartel como este, siendo francos. Su cantante, Dave Rotten, controla la discográfica Xtreem Music, de ahí que Necronomicon y Death Over Threat hayan participado también. Su set list estuvo basado en la gira “Gorespattered Tour” de 2007, y tocaron temas como “Stabwound Orgasm”, “Carnivoracity” o “Sick sick sex”, y acabaron con “Exorcismo Vaginal”. Esta fue su segunda actuación en el Kanya!!, y realmente fue espectacular. Hubo pogos de principio a fin, e incluso Dave Rotten saltó del escenario un par de veces. Despues de Avulsed ya algunos no podían ni con su propia alma. Entre Avulsed y Necronomicon aprovechamos para descansar un rato, e incluso para dormir 10 minutos, que buena falta hacía. Necronomicon, banda alemana de Thrash Metal ochentero, lo hicieron muy bien aunque se encontraron que estábamos la mitad del público reventados después de 7 horas de concierto. Esperabamos verlos, al igual que con Death Over Threat, despues del concierto que dieron en Madrid junto a Aggression. Cuando los vimos nos dimos cuenta de que despues de todo la edad tampoco pasa tanta factura, que pese a contar con sus añitos hicieron un buen concierto.Tocaron dos veces seguidas un mismo tema, y aunque suene raro, la verdad es que les quedo muy bien. Y hasta aquí lo que fue nuestra pequeña excursión hasta el Kanya!! A San Climent VI. Desde su segunda edición vamos todos los años al festival, asi que puedo decir tranquilamente que este ha sido el mejor Kanya!! de todos. Tocaron bandas geniales, hubo buen ambiente y varios stands donde vendían parches y camisetas que en tiendas normales jamás se encuentran. Asi que hay que decir que nos lo pasamos muy bien, fue una edición muy buena, nos quedan muy buenos recuerdos y esperamos que la próxima sea mejor aun. Para acabar hay que agradecer todo el trabajo que ha hecho a Jose, el organizador, que realmente ha conseguido montar un festival que no se va a olvidar.

The Hank C Burnette complete & official discography:
Cuando contactamos con Hank C Burnette nos sorprendió la noticia de que su discografía existente en la red no es exacta.
Hank nos indicó que había intentado corregirla sin éxito. Estas cosas suceden, ya lo sabemos, por desgracia.
Nada mejor para evitarlo y corregirlo que publicar la discografía oficial de Hank C Burnette tal cual el mismo Hank C Burnette nos la ha facilitado.
La publicamos en tres partes (enlazadas entre ellas):
Esta primera, con los Mini-LP, EP, Singles y Cassettes
Una segunda con los LP
Una tercera con los Compactos
Esperamos que esta fuente sea útil para los fans de Hank y sirva para que en la red se pueda encontrar la información exacta.
Primero, un pequeño tema de Hank para abrir boca.
The first time we talked with Hank C Burnette we were surprised to know his discography we've found on the Internet eas not correct.
Hank told us he has tried to correct this information, but without success. Unfortunately, this happens on the net, we know it.
To avoid this lack of information, nothing better than publish the official discography of Hank C Burnette as Hank C Burnette himself send it to us.
We will publish that discography in three parts (linked):
This one, with the Mini-LP, EP, Singles y Cassettes list
A second one with the LP list
A third one with the CD list
We hope this source of information will be usefull for the Hank's fans and helps to improve the quality of the information on the net.
But, first, a short Hank's song to start.

En unas horas comienza la sexta edición del KANYA!!! en Sant Climent.
En los últimos días hemos ido publicando enrevistas con los grupos que vamos a ver esta tarde/noche. Algunas de ellas han tenido eco en otras webs, lo que nos alegra y enorgullece, claro.
Podéis repasarlas a través del entace de la etiqueta KANYA en la barra izquierda o al pié de esta entrada.
Ha sido divertido. Un curro, la verdad, sobre todo las traducciones; pero divertido. Y hemos ido aprendiendo a cómo comunicar para que el Gran Ojo de Sauron se pose ni que sea unos instantes en nosotros, en el festival y en las bandas.
Para ser nuestro primer mes, no ha estado nada mal. Espero que podamos seguir adelante, con más noticias, mas entrevistas, mas música y mas visitas de todo el mundo.
My, my, at Waterloo Napoleon did surrender Oh yeah, and I have met my destiny in quite a similar way The history book on the shelf Is always repeating itself
Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war Waterloo - Promise to love you for ever more Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo
My, my, I tried to hold you back but you were stronger Oh yeah, and now it seems my only hope is giving up the fight And how could I ever refuse I feel like I win when I lose
Waterloo - I was defeated, you won the war Waterloo - Promise to love you for ever more Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo
So how could I ever refuse I feel like I win when I lose -
Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you Waterloo - Finally facing my Waterloo
Mi, mi, en Waterloo Napoleón se rindió Oh sí, y yo he enfrentado mi destino de una manera similar El libro de historia en el estante Siempre está repitiéndose
Waterloo - Yo fui derrotada, tu ganaste la guerra Waterloo - Prometo amarte para siempre Waterloo - No podría escaparme si quisiera Waterloo - Conocer mi destino es estar contigo Waterloo - Finalmente enfrentando mi Waterloo
Mi, mi, intenté volverte a tener pero tu eras mas fuerte Oh si, y ahora parece que mi única esperanza es abandonar la pelea Y cómo podría negarme Siento como que gané cuando perdí
Waterloo - Yo fui derrotada, tu ganaste la guerra Waterloo - Prometo amarte para siempre Waterloo - No podría escaparme si quisiera Waterloo - Conocer mi destino es estar contigo Waterloo - Finalmente enfrentando mi Waterloo
Pues cómo podría negarme Siento como que gané cuando perdí
Waterloo - No podría escaparme si quisiera Waterloo - Conocer mi destino es estar contigo Waterloo - Finalmente enfrentando mi Waterloo
We close these interviews with the bands to attend the KANYA!!! 2009 fest with NECRONOMICON, 25 years of music.
Is your first time in KANYA?
Hi Jesus, this is Freddy and at first. Thanxx for your interest in germany`s thrash cult Necronomicon.
Yes it`s our first time to play there and we `ll be absolutely anxious to know what`s going on there. We are so hot to play there.
¿Did you play before in Spain? ¿And Barcelona?
Yes, in Madrid since two weeks ago for our Release. It was amazing, but in Barcelona unfortunately not.
¿How do you remember the public here?
A totally enthusiasm crowd of metal maniacs. Rarely I saw guys moshing around like this. Fantastic
¿What's the current lineup of the band?
Me on vocals and guitar, Axel on drums, Andi G. on guitar and Andi N. on bass
¿How much time did you work with the current lineup?
Not so long ago, cause our official bass player (Alex) is in Brasil since our Russian Tour in autumm. So Andi N. is playing the european gigs for the next 3 month till Alex is comming back.
Then Andi N. is working with us for an unplugged album and is taking my part on guitar for the live gigs. So for me it`s easier to concentrate on my voice parts.
¿What have been your recent activities? ¿Concerts? ¿Records?
Now our new produktion „Revenge of the beast“ is out since December the 15th ,.Worldwide. And so we`re gonna to release the stuff alive all over the world. Especially in Europe.
¿Are you going to present some new songs at KANYA!!!?
Yes, in Kanya we have a package of some old stuff from our first album, some songs of the „Construction of evil“ album and some new songs from „Revenge of the beast“ ¿How do you define your sound?
At first: Authentic. This stuff is not a klone work of some major bands like metallica or slayer, this stuff is really NECRONOMICON. Powerful, rectilinear, a fist in your face, with some fine melodic parts. It`s our own handwriting.
¿What are you influences? ¿What do you like to ear?
Influences. A good question. We like the 80`s. Absolutely. Punk, Thrash, Rock. I don`t want to copy someone, I told you this, but if you listen this stuff day by day, it`s a normal process to sound in any parts, in any way like the good old one heroes. :-))
¿What's the preferred leit motiv of your lyrics?
In this respect we are influenced by our own history. The Punk period. Political occurrences, war crimes, and the high-explosive events in our rotten and sickness world
¿What are your project for the current year?
To stay alive all over the world and don`t to loose our aim. Possessed by thrash
¿How do you see the metal scene in Spain? ¿In Europe?
Well, I told you we played in Madrid. And I told you this was amazing. And I hope this is vicarios for the whole Spanish Metal scene. No I`m sure!!!!!! We love Spain, really. The people there havn`t had a big head. Really sympathic. And the girls are wonderful and so beauty, really :-))
Germany is o.k., bit a little too cool, but very important for the whole metal scene all over the world. And the rest? The Eastern of Europe is fantastic, too and the rest we`ll see the next times, what`s going on on the thrash metal scene.
¿Some advice for the people who starts building their bans?
Patience, patience and patience again. And to find your own style of music.
Do you like to say something more to our readers?
Thank you so much for your support. We hope we can realise your expectation in us, especially in Spain, our new home. And: be save, be happy and don`t let anybody afraid you of everything.
We plan to put some video in the post we are preparing about you ¿Do you have some advice?
Yes, the „terrorist attack“ video of the „Construcvtion of evil“ album . You can download it from our myspace site or our homepage. www.necronomicon.eu
