Massimo Giuseppe Bianchi: Captain Beefheart

from Jukebox 900 · host RSI - Radiotelevisione svizzera

Don Van Vliet, in arte Captain Beefheart, è stato un poliedrico e visionario musicista americano. Vissuto tra il 1941 e il 2010, quando morì in seguito alle complicazioni di una sclerosi multipla di cui era affetto da diversi anni. Eccentrico, stravagante e dispotico, ha scritto una pagina assai interessante della storia del rock, dove la musica si mescola al free-jazz, ai ritmi latini, alla musica d’avanguardia con un sapore blues che si evince dallo stile ruvido della sua vocalità. Spesso paragonato a Frank Zappa, gli fu dapprima amico e collaboratore poi rivale e quasi “nemico”; il suo era uno stile quasi “primitivo” che contrastava con la tecnica compositiva accurata e pragmatica del musicista di Baltimora. Il pianista e compositore Massimo Giuseppe Bianchi, attraverso un’accurata scelta di brani tratti dalla sua discografia, ce ne regala un ritratto offrendoci diversi elementi per la comprensione della sua arte.

The True Tunes Podcast John J. Thompson / True Tunes Music industry veteran, author, artist, and producer John J. Thompson hosts conversations with a diverse panel of artists, songwriters, producers, and industry innovators who seek the deeper resonances in music and culture. Classic and contemporary music is explored for signs of life, light, and beauty on the ”Jukebox” feature as well. Knowing that all music is spiritual, can we sing along with the good, the true, and the beautiful in ways that make us better neighbors, more compelling artists, and richer reflectors of the light by which we live and move and have our being? Let’s try. Juke In The Back Matt The Cat At the end of the Second World War, economics forced the big bands to trim their once great size and thus, the Jump Blues combo was born. Between 1946-1954, rhythm and blues laid the tracks for what was to become Rock n’ Roll. So how come, 75 years later, this vibrant and influential music is still so unknown to so many? Matt The Cat is going to change that with the radio program, “Juke In The Back.” These were the records that you couldn’t hear on the jukebox in the front of the establishment. To hear all this great 1950s rhythm & blues, you had to go to “Juke In The Back.” Country Legends Jukebox Country Legends Jukebox There are classic country radio shows, and then there is Country Legends Jukebox.
