Titanic Love Affair - "Happy"
Переглядів 3228 днів тому
Titanic Love Affair never got a big break and flew under the radar with a couple of albums before calling it quits. On this episode, we explore a song by this underappreciated band-a supremely catchy number called “Happy” that shoulda been a contender. Join us in appreciation for this song, this band, and the late, great Jay Bennett. “Happy” (Jay Bennett, Ken Hartz, Michael Trask, Lars Gustafss...

Small Faces - "Itchycoo Park"
Переглядів 911Місяць тому
Small Faces are one of the all-time great British bands from the 1960's but they never got the attention, success or respect they deserved. (Some of that was due to self-inflicted damage, but still...) Their biggest hit was "Itchycoo Park", 2:45 of psychedelic pop perfection. All 4 members of the band shine, and engineer Glyn Johns gets to introduce the world to the sound of flanging. Feel incl...

Episode 063: Queen - "Keep Yourself Alive"
Переглядів 863 місяці тому
Episode originally released Sept 15, 2020 Some bands take time to develop a unique sound, but Queen sounded like Queen right from the beginning. “Keep Yourself Alive” was the opening track on their first album, and it contains all the requisite Queen elements: the heavy riffs & orchestrated guitars, the vocal harmonies, dramatic musical shifts and Freddie’s powerful voice. The band would go on ...

The pressure was on for a follow-up, and the band delivered big time with their 2nd album, "Candy-O". The album was packed with more Cars classics, including the subject of this episode, "It's All I Can Do", a song that shows the strengths of each b...

Gerry, dominated by Calvin and Luther. It is all true he says but truth doesn't make happy.
Thanks for contributing.
It's psychedelic and the 1st time I took a quarter hit of acid it was a Spiritual experience. Steve Marriott is a Great musician. An outrageously fantastic singer --he's too beautiful for this world, a sensitive voice and charismatic artist in every sense of the word.
Thanks for sharing. Steve Marriott was indeed one of the greats. We'll be hearing more Marriott on the podcast later next year.
I saw Jeff Beck 2 times, about 1974 Long Beach and 2005 Phoenix. He was my favorite since 1965 or so. In a class of his own, Jeff was a powehouse, gentleman and everywhere in between. Only Rory Gallegher shares a place of 2 concerts, in my lifetime. At least Jeff Beck didn't die from drugs or alcohol, of even speeding in a hot rod he built himself! I loved his music, mixes and bands!
Thanks for sharing. Jeff was one of a kind, for sure.
Loved this music since I was 17 in bonnie Scotland, and its still good now.
It still sounds fresh, rebellious and fun today. Thanks for your comment!
Beautiful podcast. Beck was an amazing innovator. I saw Beck at the ARMS show at Madison Square Garden. It was quite the privilege.
Thanks for your feedback & sharing your experience. The ARMS show is one of those concerts I would've loved to attend... I was just a little too young at the time. I did see Jeff 3 or 4 times and he was always great. Thanks for listening to the podcast!
I was 12-13 years old when I heard this song, and immediately became a fan. I was mesmerized by Brian's guitar work, multi-layers of melodies and complex tune structure that I had never heard of. Queen I and II albums are still the best rock albums in my opinion, which requires high intelligence to comprehend. You don't usually need intelligence to listen to rock music, though.
Thanks for sharing. Queen was an amazing band, fully formed right out of the gate with their distinctive one-of-a-kind sound.
I remember buying this album in the 90,s!It was such a great album!
Thanks for sharing. I missed this band the first time around, but it's never too late to discover great music.
Love this album!! Listening to it right now (the remastered edition). I've seen Big Head Todd and The Monsters twice in the last couple months. Once at Red Rocks with Jakob Dylan and the Wallflowers and once in El Dorado Arkansas with Blues Traveler. BHT plays "Highway Star" as their encore and they do a very credible version of it that gets everybody up and rawkin'!!
Thanks for your comments. "Made In Japan" is one of my favorite albums, it was a pleasure to dig into this track. Hope you check out the podcast episode.
@@theiminlovewiththatsongpod1949 Same here! I will!
Yes..I love this..Songsfrom the wood is one of my favorite
Mick Taylor missed a chord he's impeccable
Thanks for commenting. My favorite Stones period is when Mick Taylor was with them. He doesn't get enough credit.
@@theiminlovewiththatsongpod1949 Mick Taylor took the stones to another level
My fav solo Lennon album. A great listen top to bottom. A fun funky album that had some bite to it.maybe my fav solo Beatle album, I happen to like Londontown a good bit too
Thanks for sharing. "Walls & Bridges" is probably my favorite Lennon solo LP, it's definitely underrated. Hope you enjoyed the podcast.
Jeff Beck fan here since the Yardbirds here. Saw Jeff 12 times, all amazing. This retrospective is definitive. Thank you.
Thanks for listening, and for your feedback. Coming from someone with your experience, the compliment is much appreciated. I saw Jeff 3 or 4 times, he was brilliant every time.
What a selection perfect.
Thank you!
Love Pickett's music, and this one is sooooo Good . todays music is Boring Vanilla compared to this sound. Wish there was a Pickett Tribute Band
Thanks for listening! Wilson was one of the greats, for sure. Hope you keep listening to the show.
I’ve always loved Jeff Becks guitarplaying, he was so intelligent and talent. There was no limits for him, so he became really good in the Yardbirds! The rest is history for him. And he went further and further. He became a legend. Well I still miss him. - jon fisher
Thanks for your comments, and I agree-- no guitarist pushed himself further like Jeff Beck. I miss him, too. Thanks for listening to the podcast.
@@theiminlovewiththatsongpod1949Thank You ! :)
To say that a song is 'way ahead of its time' is misleading. It assumes that music progressively improves. This is wrongheaded. The song is of its time and in many ways much more genuine than the digitally generated, soulless offerings that we have to swallow now. Incidentally, I bought this single the week after its release! Bill
I didn't say the song was "ahead of its time"-- that was one of the other commenters here. But, in terms of the use of technology, the application of the flanging effect so prominently was innovative and that put the track ahead of what others were doing in the studio. As Andrew Hickey often says on his podcast, "there is no 'first' anything", but this song was one of the earliest uses of flanging, an effect that soon would become commonplace. You could argue that makes the recording "ahead of its time", but ultimately, I think that's just semantics. You, I, and the others who posted here, are all in agreement that this track is a great piece of work and worthy of more attention. Thanks so much for listening & for your comments!
G'day to you! Yep Totally Agree on that, Tin Soldier also Rates a Mention, I was Blessed with growing up in the 60s,what a time for Real Music! Perth West Aust.
Thanks for your feedback, glad you enjoyed the show. We discussed "Tin Soldier" back on Episode 54. We also discussed PP Arnold (who sang backup on "Tin Soldier") on Episode 149. You can find both of those episodes on our website (or in your podcast app) if you'd like to listen to them. Thanks again!
A great song. Way ahead of its time.
It was of its time.
Excellent analysis!
Thank you!
I’m grateful that you gave up a whole show…. like you say there is no way an appreciation or any understanding of his greatness could be conveyed in 20 mins. ❤ I think it’s a great analysis of how Jeff developed his style in stages and gives massive credit to how hard he worked in between styles to develop further and further with his guitar playing.
Thanks for your feedback, I'm glad you were happy with the episode. I hope the show helps other people to discover Jeff Beck, and encourage them to seek out his albums.
Totally not surprised devo was the beat influence of this song.
The greatest
One more thing about the Blow by Blow album. Jeff used a guitar that was given to him by Seymour Duncan, dubbed as a Tele Gib.
Love It...Ledgend
Jeff Beck's death hurt me as much as when either of my parents passed away. As a matter of fact, his being on the planet creating some of the most incredible guitar playing was strong heart felt medicine that helped me get thru the day/night. The last year has been extremely hard on me emotionally for various reasons. Listening to his music has been helpful, but it always reminds me that the #GOATGuitarist is no longer with us but his musical endeavors will always be here for his family, friends, & fans to enjoy. How much did I love Jeff Beck ? I got to see him 15 times perform his guitar artistry in concert. 1) "Fire Meets Fury" with Stevie Ray Vaughan in Chicago, Illinois 1989 2) 2 times with Santana in 3 days in Illinois & Wisconsin 1995 3) "Who Else" tour 2 times in Illinois 1999 4) "You Had It Coming" tour in Illinois 2001 5) Eric Clapton "Crossroads" shows in 2007 & 2010 in Bridgeview, Illinois 6) Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in Cleveland,Ohio 2009 7) Intimate club tour at Park West, Chicago 2009 8) Les Paul tribute tour with Imelda May, Cadillac Theater, Chicago,Illinois 2011 9) Chicago Theater 2015 10) "Loud Hailer" Ravinia Highland Park, Illinois 2016 11) Performed half hour encore with Rod Stewart Hollywood Bowl, Hollywood, California 2019 12) "18" tour with Johnny Depp Phoenix, Arizona 2022 EVERY time I saw Jeff Beck perform in concert he never disappointed anyone in attendance. He only got better & better mastering the guitar as the years went on in his life. He was the only musician I have ever seen in my lifetime that propelled me to a place I had only experienced when seeing him live. I was so happy & joyful when I was in attendance watching/listening to him tear it up. I'll never be in that place again unfortunately. I am so grateful & lucky to have seen "The Guv'nor" of guitar as many times as I had. After he passed away, I was feeling every negative feeling anyone could experience. I was devastated. The one thing that helped get me thru the pain was all the famous guitarists & their comments about Jeff Beck. Basically EVERYBODY loved Jeff Beck as far as his guitar playing but also that he was such a kind & humble person to be around. The only thing he loved more than his self made cars & guitar collection was his widow Sandra. Jeff & Sandra were big time animal activists which is another reason why I respected them so much. I miss him. Always will. But I will never forget him or the extraordinary music he created with his guitar. He was "One of One". We will never see another guitarist like him in our lifetime. RIP Jeff Beck.
Thank you for sharing this. He was one-of-a-kind. The greatest. I tied to do justice to his legend in this episode.
@theiminlovewiththatsongpod1949 You did right by Jeff Beck & his fans. Thank you for posting it.👍✌️🙂
They were giants in music history and this song was one of their best Such great talent that crossed time and generations
Agreed! Thanks for listening to the podcast!
WHO IS THE PERSON THAT IS SPEAKING ABOUT JEFF BECK IN THIS WONDERFUL DEPICTION OF HIS LIFE AND HIS ACHEIVEMENTS? ? THANK YOU--_SO MUCH!!! HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN KNIGHTED, HE MADE SO MANY INNOVATIONS AND USED AND SHOWED OFF SO MANY TALENTED MUSICIAN AND SINGERS! HE ALWAYS FORGOT ABOUT HIMSELF AND PROMOTED OTHERS, ESPECIALLY NEARER TO THE END OF HIS LIFE. EVEN AT 14 HE KNEW WHAT HE WANTED TO DO AND DISCOVERED FOR HIMSELF THROUGH HIS OWN EXPERIMENTATIONS. JEFF BECK WAS INFLUENCED BY HIS MOTHGER'S MUSIC AND THE RECORDS OF SERIOUS MUSIC THAT HE HEARD AT HOME BY LISTENING TO THE MUSIC HIS CONCERT PLAYING MOTHER HAD IN HER COLLECTION AND BY HIS UNCLE WHO PLAYED JAZZ IN HIS CAR! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS You tube record OF Jeff Becks write. WHO ARE YOU?????? WE AT SCHOOL WHEN JEFF BECK WAS 14 YEARS OLD AND WE WERE ALL 13, WERE VERY IMPRESSED WITH HIM AND KNEW ABOUT HIM WANTING TYO MAKE A GUITAR, BECAUSE HE CAME IN WITH BITS AND PIECES AND MADE HIS OWN GUITARS. WE FOLLOWED HIM ALL HIS LIFE TO SEE WHAT HE WOULD DO!!! CYNTHIA ALLEN-McLAGLEN.
Thank you for the feedback & kind words about this episode. I've been a Jeff Beck fan since the 70's, and my appreciation for his playing only increased over the years. If you liked this show, I'm sure you'll enjoy some of our other episodes. Please check them out on our website, lovethatsongpodcast.com. You can find out more about the show, and the host (that's me!) on the website.
Thank you for this respectful review of Jeff Beck’s career. He, like Miles Davis, changed the way that music was played and appreciated by several generations of humans. He changed my life when I heard ‘Shapes of Things’ as a teenager on my transistor radio. Myself and many others became fascinated with his guitar playing in the mid to late 60’s and the continued evolution as a player throughout his life. Thanks again, much appreciated.
Thank YOU for listening and for sharing your comments. I hope I did justice to this legendary player.
Hi music is stunning even now!!!! Full of guts and feeling.
I totally agree. Thanks for listening & for your comments.
Life in Dark Water is a song about depression. Stewart wrote a ton of songs with marine imagery - ships, sailors, submarines, beaches. This theme runs through dozens and dozens of his songs going back to 1969. It took me many years - decades - to figure out that this imagery is a reflection of his inner self, his mental, emotional state. LiDW is one of these songs. The bridge gives it away ("tell my girl she must be strong / she sits and waits all night long / just looking for a better day / she'll find another way to go"). He can't communicate with anyone, including his "girl". In a concert of his I attended a couple of years ago, he introduced another marine-themed song (maybe "The loneliest place on the map") as a song about "a woman who wouldn't let me fuck her" (or words to that effect). I later figured out it was about his ex-wife. Perhaps we shouldn't know too much about artists. Stewart's love of his life, though, Mandi, was the subject of many songs, too - long after they'd split.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this song, and for listening to the show.
Bill is probably the greatest guitarist of all time. A genius in guitar playing and songwriting.
Great podcast
Thank you!
It's such a complex weaving of different sounds, and it comes out so beautifully. I think this is my favorite song, and thank you for breaking it down for us.
Well thank you for listening! It's truly a masterpiece, a song that transcends time.
This choice is a nice surprise, The Cars had a very distinctive sound that sounds relatively simple on the surface but as you demonstrate with this podcast, there is always interesting elements going on underneath, both with the lyrics and the music. Thanks for another great episode.
Thank you! Those first two Cars albums are pretty perfect records. The songwriting, sound (production) and performances are all great.
PT’s ever-moving plea-reminder that we long for and anxiously, enthusiastically await reunion with our Almighty Creator…
Thanks for sharing your opinion & for listening.
Just a dreadful noise.
Sorry you don't like the song, but thanks for checking out the show.
The keyboards, the distorted power chords and Ben's plaintive vocals really set this song apart. But I really need to know what that little whistle effect is?!? So subtle but quirky and memorable.
Thanks for your feedback! Not sure what whistle effect you're referring to, but I would assume it's Greg Hawkes on synthesizer, probably a Moog?
Yes Jeff Beck continued to improve all his life and took on even more and more and more all his life. Different sounds and techniques, different more impossible challenges! So many people say what he did was regarded as IMPOSSIBLE, but Jeff kept on GOING FORWARD AND BREAKING MORE AND MORE BARRIERS. So many people said he was such a giving person as well, to his fellow musicians; and to Women Musicians of Great Calibre. Thank you Jeff Beck. There are several experts in teaching and discussing guitar playing in detail and the different impossible achievements that Jeff Beck managed to do with his guitar, over and over again on UA-cam. They make one gasp! Over and Over! Yes a Musical Giant!! Look them up! Cynthia Allen-McLaglen
Thanks for your comments, and yes I agree-- in my opinion, he's the greatest. I hope this episode made the case for Jeff as an all-time Master. Thanks for listening.
" I'm in LOVE with that sound "
Rubble is top notch.
Full songs please
Thanks for your feedback. Due to copyright concerns, we don't play full songs on episodes like these. It would also make the episodes excessively long; I try to keep the episodes to a max of 30-40 minutes (most episodes run about 20 min). I just want to give you a taste of these songs, to whet your appetite, and hopefully you'll like them enough to seek the albums out.
A good example of the use of half time can be found on Ain't That Peculiar.
Thanks for contributing. Fanny's version of "Ain't That Peculiar" is great, I almost did the episode on that song rather than "Cat Fever", but I decided to cover an original. The best version of Fanny doing "Ain't That Peculiar" is a live TV studio performance which you can find on UA-cam. It rocks, and I think it's better than the album version.
@@theiminlovewiththatsongpod1949 I concur.
Awesome breakdown. I really learn a lot from reviews and podcasts like yours. Thank you for all the effort put in to this one! I have listened to Rush for a long time and have attended several concerts of theirs over the years. Now I can go back and listen to this song with a new found enjoyment.
Thanks for listening, and for your comments. Very much appreciated! For Rush fans, we also covered "Subdivisions" back on Episode #47, so check that one out. Alex came up in our "5 Favorite Guitar Solos" episode (Episode 25), and I'm sure Rush will come up again on the podcast, as they're one of my favorite bands. Thanks again!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
You didnt mention Rough and Ready??? The debut album of The Jeff Beck Group. The "orange" album eas their second with Max Middleton and Cozy Powell, Bob Tench, etc
I didn't talk about "Rough & Ready" specifically, though I did mention that the Jeff Beck Group released 2 LP's in 1971 & 1972 (approximately 24 minutes into the podcast) and I played a clip from "Going Down" to give a taste from this period. I'm not personally a big fan of these 2 albums, so I didn't focus on them... the episode is already over an hour long-- our longest episode, most episodes clock in at 15-20 minutes-- so I just didn't have time to explore every album. Thanks for listening!
One of the most memorable evening of my life.Dec31st 1969- Jan1st,1970. It was 2 days after celebrating my 20 th birthday. I spent part of that evening dancing at the Electric Circus to end up standing in the cold outside the Fillmore East listen to the master Jimi performing. That time it was unimaginable that 9 months later Jimi would be dead.
Fantastic! And you've got the album as a memento of the event, that's very cool. Thanks for sharing your story. And for listening to the podcast!
Great analysis. I really enjoyed it! I was fortunate enough to see Be-Bop Deluxe twice and Bill Nelson solo. A criminally underrated guitarist and band.
Thank you! Be-Bop Deluxe is definitely underappreciated. Thanks for listening to the podcast!
The ALWAYS interesting Be Bop Deluxe !
The Greatest Band Ever!
Excellent deconstruction of a truly great song. Arthur is my favourite Kinks album as it contains the best anti-war song you may ever hear in Some Mother's Son, still as relevant today as it was in 1969. Thanks.
Thanks for your comments. "Arthur" is one of my favorite Kinks records, really strong LP all the way through.
Awesome.. amazing band ,, killer album
Thanks for your feedback! You are 100% correct on all counts. A fantastic album by a great band that sadly never got the attention they deserved in the US. But those albums are still out there for people to discover... so, please, seek them out!
