My Morning Jacket Channels Skynyrd In Crowe Film

My Morning Jacket has often drawn comparisons to such southern rock forebears as Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Allman Brothers Band, even if they're rooted more in its members' long-haired, bearded appearances than their music.

But in Cameron Crowe's new film "Elizabethtown," set in MMJ's home state of Kentucky, the group openly embraces the similarities, portraying a local band rocking through a cover of Skynyrd's classic "Freebird." The performance elevates to another level when a stuffed bird intended as a stage prop catches fire and activates the sprinkler system, soaking the patronage.

"He's an amazing, sweet man," My Morning Jacket vocalist Jim James told Billboard.com in 2003, when the band was first getting acquainted with Crowe. "He's truly awesome, but anybody knows that from seeing his movies."

Due Oct. 14 in U.S. theaters, "Elizabethtown" stars Orlando Bloom as a down-on-his-luck industrial designer who turns over a new page when he returns to his Kentucky hometown for his father's funeral. An extended trailer for the film, set to Elton John's "My Father's Gun," can be viewed at Elizabethtown.com.

The soundtrack will be released Sept. 13 via RCA, although the track list is still under wraps. Original music was provided by Crowe's wife, Heart guitarist Nancy Wilson, while fellow singer/songwriter Loudon Wainwright III appears in the film as the character Uncle Dale.

Paul Westerberg previously told Billboard.com he had given Crowe several songs for possible use in conjunction with “Elizabethtown,” but it is unknown if any of them appear on the soundtrack.

In related news, My Morning Jacket's highly anticipated new album, "Z," has been bumped from its original Sept. 20 release date to Oct. 4, according to ATO/RCA.

Купил двойной концертник Southern Knights.
Особенно порадовали номера Devil In The Bottle и That Smell. Хех, оба на тематику излишеств всяких нехороших. Вообще, классный концертник, имеет смысл иметь.

2Dvas Nickolas:

Коля, их DVD концертные тоже highly recommended.

Primal Scream
Спасибо, я просто видео не очень часто покупаю, потому что его отсматривать не получается, а искать - на порядок тяжелее, чем CD.
Поэтому сначала я разберусь с видео "других представителей южного рока" (читай: Allman Brothers Band), а потом перейду к этим.

В продаже на пиратках попался си-ди+ ди-ви-ди "Фрибиёрд зе муви" в пикчерсливовом исполнении чёрт-те знаить какой конторы...Ежели это не такое же позорище по качеству изготовления , как оригинальный Флитвуд, то многие, я думаю, смогут по дешевке приобрести для ознакомления...

а как вам the Band? Нравится мне эта команда, хоть и не первого она ряда

The Band здесь не проходят. Не южный совсем рок.

>В продаже на пиратках попался си-ди+ ди-ви-ди
>"Фрибиёрд зе муви"
Так написал бы кто-нибудь про него отзыв-то:-)
Там еще какое-то видео с тура 78-го года обещано...
Смущает, конечно, тот факт, что 2 DVD на одном...

PS
Мне первые пара Skynyrd'ов скорее понравились, а все последующее - никак и даже "скорее не...".

2karp:

Отзыв на эту пиратку я не напишу, потому что не покупал :)
"Фрибёрд Муви О.С.Т." у меня где-то лежит...Не слухал очччень давно, но на память помню, что сей живой сет впечатлил драйвом энд задором, "неконцертной дрессировочной" слаженностью игры, ну, и отличным "фитбэком" со стороны многотысячной толпы. Такой прямолинейный бескомпромиссный южный рок практич. уже не слушаю...Но ежели "на полную катушку", вдавив акселераторную педаль в дно машины, то энта музычка самый раз (токма не перепутать машыны, главное, шоб не попался дорожный "каток", а то буить, как в "Ну, погоди!")

2john lee hooker:
>прямолинейный бескомпромиссный южный рок
вот с этого и надо было начинать:-)
я, пожалуй, пропущу этот релиз мимо...

>Отзыв на эту пиратку я не напишу
так мне на музыку интересно было:-)

PS
а пиратку все та же конторка печатала...

Originally released on February 2, 1976, Gimme Back My Bullets was the fourth album from Florida-born Lynyrd Skynyrd, the now legendary southern rock band, with singer-songwriter Ronnie Van Zant at the helm, welded rock onto blues and country to create a new sound greater than the sum of its musical parts. Skynyrd originally had a different title in mind. "We were gonna call that record 'Ain't No Dowd About It', after producer Tom Dowd," guitarist Gary Rossington laughs. "Gimme Back My Bullets" was the last track recorded for the album. "That was just a riff I had," Rossington remembers. "Ronnie wrote that about bullets on the charts, not gun bullets. We were talkin' about Billboard, rise with a bullet, ten with a bullet. We had to quit doin' that song live 'cause people would throw bullets up when we'd play it, .22 cartridges and sometimes shotgun shells."
Lynyrd Skynyrd's Old Grey Whistle Test appearance demarcates the halfway point in the original band's meteoric four-year odyssey. It was two years since they first burst on the rock scene, hailed by many as "the world's next super group." In the following two years they were to fulfill that promise, achieving their greatest triumphs and experiencing their darkest tragedies. Skynyrd gave better performances than The Old Grey Whistle Test and they gave worse. But one thing you could say about this band: no matter what the situation, whether it was an on-day or an off-day, no matter what the adversity, they always took pride in giving audiences their best shot. Perhaps that is what makes them the quintessential American Rock 'n Roll Band and why their legacy has endured and grown for over three decades.

Коля! Мы - "Шаровая молния" - как единственная команда, играющая в нашем (ты знаешь каком)погрязшем в "шнурообразной" псевдо ска-музыке городе классику рока в том числе и Sweet Home Alabama (L-S)категорически утверждаем - эта вещица, если еще и упомянуть, что она была в саундтреке "Форрест Гампа" и по сей день срывает башни даже у тех людей, кто в момент её написания существовал в виде сперматозоида.

2Буремглой Небокроев:

Да, Андрюш, как слышу ее, так сразу хочется убраться в Гринбоу, Алабама. Кстати, в "Форресте" звучит еще одна вещь Skynyrd, как нельзя лучше подошедшая к сцене, когда Дженни (на дворе эпоха диско) хочет броситься с балкона. Я говорю о "Free Bird", конечно же. Дженни всегда хотел стать птичкой, чтобы улететь. В общем, тоже вещь офигительная, особенно мощнейшая концовка с двумя соло-гитарами.
Еще не так давно смотрел фильм "Элизабеттаун". Довольно скучный, но когда местная группа играла на поминках "Свободную птицу", произошел пожар и паника, вот тогда я проснулся.
И уж совсем недавно зацепил вот такой трибьют. Без понтов! Будете проходить мимо - проходите.

Коля! Это мистика какая-то. В пятницу купил DVD диск на котором 8 фильмов. В том числе и "Элизабеттаун". Я его еще даже не успел посмотреть.

2Буремглой Небокроев:

Теперь посмотришь. Там один перец большой поклонник Скинэрдов.

Забиваю на работу! Бегу смотреть!
