Vinyl Wednesday: Eddie Hazel - Jams From The Heart
I already posted his other album "Games, Dames and Guitar Thangs" earlier this year, this one is a bit more rough, later added as bonus material to "Games".
Here 's the whole album. My favourite track is the second one, "Lampoc Boogie". More about Eddie Hazel on Wikipedia. Eddie Hazel joined George Clinton's Parliament in 1967 when he was 17 years old.
So the first time we played the music from Royalty For Real wasn't in Amersfoort, the Netherlands, but in Bengaluru and Mumbai, all the way in India in 2023!Here you'll see me play Au Privave, Classy Cats and Royalty For Real, together with Timothy Banchet (piano), Marius Beets (bass) and Sven Rozier (drums).Au Privave is a well-known blues by Charlie Parker which I often like to start with, almost like a soundcheck tune. Although most of the time a soundcheck is done I found out it's a good idea to play a tune everybody of the band knows very well so we all can get used to the sound of the stage, the presence of the audience and it also gives the sound engineer the chance to adjust microphones last minute. During the soundcheck, the sound of the room is significantly different because of the lack of audience. All that flesh and clothes work a little bit like a totally empty room versus a room with furniture and carpets, if you know what I mean :-)Acoustics are so interesting and full of surprises.. Anyways.. hope you like it! - I already posted his other album Games, Dames and Guitar Thangs earlier this year, this one is a bit more rough, later added as bonus material to Games.Here 's the whole album.
