Barbagallo Live at Yoko Ono
A stare con le mani in mano Carlo Barbagallo proprio non ce la fa. E Dio
(o chi per lui)lo benedica. Il Live at Yoko Ono è stato registrato a Catania nel Marzo del 2010, e dire che il nostro è in forma è dire davvero poco. Connubbio uomo e chitarra, come nelle migliori tradizioni. Come i cantori mitologici riportati ai giorni nostri. Come i discepoli di Neil Young. Come quei buskers nella tube londinese che anche se hai fretta ti fermi ad ascoltarli (e poi magari qualche anno dopo diventano Turin Brakes o Badly Drawn Boy e tu - e solo tu - lo sapevi già). Lo avevo lasciato con un EP (Quarter Century) e me lo ritrovo ancora più maturo e sicuro di se. Me lo immagino a pestare il tempo su Paper Mirror mentre le dita viaggiano sulla chitarra. E poi le uscite grunge (20 anni da Nevermind e non sentirli), in acustico, si capisce.E grida, Barbagallo, agli affamati di blues e agli strimpellatori nelle camerette; “non siete soli!” sembra dirgli. Barbagallo se ne fotte dell’hipsteria di luci e centrali elettriche. E noi siamo tutti schiavi dei suoi accordi grattati.
Play it again, Barbagallo.
Classic Dirty Three Album Released As Playbutton
More than a decade after its original release, Dirty Three’s “Whatever You Love, You Are” is recognized as one of their most beloved albums. While much of the love fans have for this album is for the beauty of the music, there is no overlooking the beauty of guitarist Mick Turner’s painting which graces the cover. Because of the undeniable artistic integration of music and image, “Whatever You Love, You Are” has been selected to be one of the very first releases on the brand new music format - the Playbutton (available June 28, 2011).
What’s a Playbutton? It’s a wearable button that plays music. In this case, the music is the album “Whatever You Love, You Are” by Dirty Three. The music can be played, paused, or skipped with volume controls on the backside. An audio jack has the dual role of earphone jack and USB battery charger. Affixed with a pin back, the playbutton uses a re-chargeable lithium battery and is made of stainless steel. Still having trouble picturing this new music format? Go to www.playbutton.co and see what it’s like to wear the music while playing the music.
Domino is happy to announce a new signing to the label today: Fránçois & the Atlas Mountains.
Fránçois Marry is a multi-talented singer-songwriter, musician, animator and artist hailing from Saintes, a small town on the west coast of France.
A new album will be released later this year. In the meantime here’s a tune from the wonderful ‘Plaine Inondable’ LP (Courtesy of Talitres http://www.talitres.com/)
