Interview With Bill Levenson by Where's Eric

I think the difference between remastered CD & this HiRes edition is subtle, I can say slightly more natural and analog like sound, but the substance of the difference from previous release is tighter midrange, especially bass guitar sound is much clearer than before and auditory lateralization is also much much stable.
Recommended if you haven't got remastered CD album.

Tune in Tokyo by Sara Bareilles

As you all know, we had a multi-faceted visit to the incredible country of Japan. Some time was spent being a tourist, some as an artist, and some as a volunteer. I want to show you all sides of it, and this is a little look into my time in Japan being an artist. These are snippets from our show in Tokyo, and some radio promotion visits we did. And you will see some of my favorite footage from fans ever. Like EVER.

Stay tuned for more. :)

Message from Sara Bareilles regarding her first trip to Japan

I have just returned from a trip to Japan that I hope I never recover from. I fell madly in love with this unbelievably beautiful country, its food, its fashion, its culture, and most importantly....it's people. My time there included several shows, a couple of days off, and an incredible volunteering experience up in a small northern city called Ofunato that has affected me profoundly. My message is simple: Japan is beautiful. Japan is safe. Japan is ready and open for business.
It's time to visit Japan!


love love love,


sara



Thanks Sara for your encouraging words and volunteer work at Ofunato for Japan.
We really love you 2!

Please consider donatation for Music For Relief to get Sara's great song, Song For A Soldier.

Rencontre avec Ryuichi Sakamoto à l'occasion de la publication de son nouvel album "Playing The Piano". La star japonaise interprète seule ses classiques issus des bandes originales de films (Furyo, Le Dernier Empereur) et de ses albums de pop, de bossa et de musiques électroniques.

Note: bit old interview (2009), but very interesting, interview was done in English and easy to understand since RS spoke slowly enough to catch without caption, enjoy!

Keith Richards Wins Brass Balls award on Spike TV

June 8, 2011

In this clip from Spike TV's Guys Choice Awards, Robert De Niro presents the Brass Balls award to Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards for, presumably, just being an incredibly awesome dude. "I always thought, if you get things like this, happens to them when you get them home?," the guitarist said, holding the Brass Balls statue, which is basically just a couple brass balls held together by a rod. "I've got to call Clint Eastwood, I think, and ask him how he displays his balls."

Revelator - Tedeschi Trucks Band

Recorded in Derek and Susan's own Swamp Raga Studios in Jacksonville, co-produced by Derek with producer/engineer Jim Scott (Johnny Cash, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Wilco), Revelator is a confident yet unforced triumph offering a cohesive vision: an idyllic, musical world in which the echoes of so many great traditions — Delta blues and Memphis soul, Sixties rock and Seventies funk — flow together naturally, blending with an entirely original, modern sensibility.
"This album is an evolution of what we’ve all been doing before," says Trucks. "With this album, everything’s been thought out a little deeper, figuring out the music and what the tunes mean—more time given to the whole process."
"These songs are all life-adventure stuff," adds Tedeschi, who co-wrote most of the album with her husband. "Whether soul-searching or love-searching, looking for shelter, or hope, or just a break...Revelator is about storytelling through songs—songs with nice musical structures, with beginnings, middles and ends, a lot of content that people can really dig into."

T3, "Midnight in Harlem" was played and available in video: CROSSROADS GUITAR FESTIVAL 2010 and I love this song very much:)
I think this band is currently the best successor of southern rock with blues influence, highly recommended.
