When one evaluates Paul Horn's calling, it is as if he were deuce people, pre- and post-1967. In his early years, Horn was an fantabulous cool-toned altoist and flute player, piece afterwards he became a young years flautist whose mood music is often c. H. Best used as background euphony for speculation. Horn started on pianoforte when he was quaternity and switched to alto at the eld of 12. After a stint with the Sauter-Finegan Orchestra on tenor, Horn was Buddy Collette's replacement with the popular Chico Hamilton Quintet (1956-1958), playing alto, transverse flute, and clarinet. He became a studio apartment instrumentalist in Los Angeles, only also launch time during 1957-1966 to record cool malarkey albums for Dot (by and by reissued on Impulse), World Pacific, Hi Fi Jazz, Columbia, and RCA, and he participated in a memorable live session with Cal Tjader in 1959. In addition, in 1964, Horn recorded one of the number one Jazz Masses, utilizing an orchestra staged by Lalo Schifrin. In 1967, Paul Horn studied transcendental speculation in India and became a teacher. The following year, he recorded unaccompanied flute solos at the Taj Mahal (where he enjoyed interacting with the echoes), and would go on to record in the Great Pyramid, tour China (1979) and the Soviet Union, record using the sounds of slayer whales as "accompaniment," and establish his possess label Golden Flute. Most of Paul Horn's ferment since the mid-'70s is focused on new eld rather than jazz.

Tom Petty sticks with hits in Hollywood Bowl redux

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - No flashpots, lasers or elaborate stage sets. No grimacing solos or rehearsed rants.


So why -- year after year, tour after tour -- does Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers remain one of the best live acts in rock? It's the sound, and the songs.


With innate professionalism, effortless versatility and alternately muscular and graceful music, the Rock Hall of Famers delivered a typically crowd-pleasing show at the Hollywood Bowl Wednesday.


Petty and the band are on a roll the past year, with a four-hour documentary and Super Bowl halftime show to their credit. They likely could have sold out Staples Center on this tour but opted for a return visit to the Bowl, which they also packed two summers ago. With no new record to promote, this show was markedly similar to that 2006 gig: same length, 13 of the same songs and Petty's word-for-word intonation that "I've come to rock Hollywood."


Meanwhile, the crowd's phrase of choice -- overheard in the parking lot, beer lines and seats -- was, "I hope he plays ..." Few likely went home disappointed. Half of the set's 20 songs are on the 10-times-platinum "Greatest Hits" album; a half-dozen others, including the three covers, are staples of classic rock radio.


But that left precious little for the hardcore fans -- the ones who have been coming to their shows for decades and likely always will. So Petty and his band remain mired between a pair of adages: Give the people what they want versus you can't please everyone. The staid set list is the only major gripe about Heartbreakers shows these days, though, and this one had plenty to enjoy.


Some of the songs were played note-for-note, some extended -- exactly as it should be. "You Wreck Me" was moved from its encore slot in '06 to leadoff, priming the crowd. A couple of radio mainstays later, Mike Campbell's searing guitar lead on "Even the Losers" was as effective as ever, further clouding memories of when Petty opted to turn that one into an acoustic piece live. "Sweet William," unreleased in the U.S., toyed with tempos, whisking from whisper to scream and back.


Opener Steve Winwood joined the band for the Blind Faith classic "Can't Find My Way Home" and the bar/wedding/prom/garage band chugger "Gimme Some Lovin'." The latter was played with a rock lover's glee, with Winwood showing that he's still on the Hammond B-3 A-list. It left the sold-out crowd buzzing. 

Radiohead Kick Off Roskilde Festival

Radiohead were on fine form this evening as they headlined the opening night at this year’s Roskilde Festival in Denmark. 

The band seemed in good spirits off the back of their recent UK dates.  They go on to play festival spots in Belgium, France and Germany in the coming weeks before crossing the pond to tour the states in August.

As promised by drummer Phil Selway in an interview with Gigwise earlier this year, Radiohead drew much of their set from their prolific backcatalogue, which interspersed the majority of material from ‘In Rainbows’. 

While ‘Jigsaw Falling Into Place’ and ‘Nude’ received rapturous receptions due to their prolific airplay on some Danish radio stations, the crowd was most excited to revisit favourite tracks from previous albums.

“If you score bad drugs, this song is for you,” Thom Yorke informed the crowd before launching into ‘2+2=5’, causing festival goers to thrash about in the dust. 

Radiohead were typically reticent but looked to be thoroughly enjoying the change of scene, taking time to applaud the audience after ending on sing-a-long favourite ‘Karma Police’.

Look out for reviews from Roskilde coming soon on Gigwise…

Four housemates up for BB eviction

'Big Brother' contestants Mario, Stephanie, Lisa and Luke have failed to secure immunity from the first round of evictions.
The quartet failed the task in which they had to convince the other housemates that Mario and Stephanie were a couple; Mario and Lisa are the real couple in this year's house.
The scam culminated in a fake wedding for Mario and Stephanie on the show yesterday.
The wedding breakfast was then interrupted with this announcement: "The wedding is now over. Big Brother has a very important announcement - there is a secret couple living in the House. Housemates have one minute to decide who they think those two housemates are."
The group decided the real couple were Mario and Lisa and the correct answer meant that the duo, Stephanie and Luke would face eviction.
Mario and Lisa were delighted the truth about their relationship was revealed while Luke was unhappy about facing eviction.
"The reason why we're on the chopping block now is because of Stephanie," he said, referring to her difficulty with the task.
Bookies have made massage therapist Kathreya the new favourite to win the show.

The London-based modern wave group Wang Chung had a handful of hits in the mid-'80s, achieving their greatest popularity in the U.S. Originally called Huang Chung, the band consisted of vocalist/guitarist Jack Hues, bassist Nick Feldman, and drummer Darren Costin. The band recorded four-spot tracks for 101 Records in the late '70s, all of which appeared on a pair of compilation albums. Huang Chung released their first individual, "Isn't It About Time We Were on Television?," in 1980; the record light-emitting diode to a get with Arista Records. The group released their first album, Huang Chung, in 1982. By the time they recorded 1984's Points on a Curve, the band had changed their appoint to Wang Chung. "Dance Hall Days" was a low stumble in Britain, so far the stria pip the Top 40 twice in America -- "Don't Let Go" made it to number 36, while "Dance Hall Days" reached number 16. From this point on, Wang Chung ignored the U.K. mart, choosing to centralize on the U.S. "To Live and Die in L.A.," the root song from William Friedken's thriller, just lost fashioning the Top 40 in 1985. That same year, Wang Chung switched from Geffen Records to A&M and Costin left the stria. Hues and Feldman continued as a duo and released Mosaic in 1986. The album was their biggest stumble, launching the number two hit "Everybody Have Fun Tonight" and the Top Ten "Let's Go!"


Wang Chung returned in 1989 with The Warmer Side of Cool, which exhausted a mere six-spot weeks on the charts, spawning the pocket-size hit, "Praying to a New God." After the relative disappointment of the album, the group softly stopped up touring and recording.
