Motown

Theodor***
Точно, точно... Меня это шокирует.

А покойная Арета Франклин на Мотауне писАлась?

Pacific:
Во-первых, не спешите хоронить волшебницу Арету. Почему это она вдруг покойная??
Во-вторых нет; она писалась на Коламбии, Атлантике и Аристе, если не ошибаюсь в последнем случае.

Тут нужно заметить, что помимо Motown был еще один замечательный соул-лейбл, Stax.
Кстати кое-чего из сегодняшнего r&b звучит неплохо - Alicia Keys например.

Дед с "приветом"!

Вот хорошая статья А. Козлова ("Козел на саксе") о классическом периоде соул:
http://www.musiclab.ru/templates/enc.asp?id=234&table=table_mainmenu

Мих. Бирюков
Действительно, соврал. Не знаю, откуда взялась эта информация, но в голове у меня засела. Так вот и распространяются всяческие непроверенные слухи :((((( Прости меня, Арета....

Вчиталась.... Дико забавный список - например, чем обидел его создателей Смоки, пардон, Робинсон, что они включили в данное соборное уложение 1 (один) его альбом 60-х годов и один же - 80 года? А Марту Ривз вообще не сочли достойной упоминания. ОДНАКО... Такое ощущение, что сий документ составляли, зайдя в первый попавшийся магазин и переписавши все, что на тот момент лежало в разделе "соул" :)) В общем, long live journalism.......

список может и вправду забавный - но уж кого-кого, а людей из MOJO в незнании материала и некомпетентности обвинять беспочвенно - это не sun и не монгольский козломоец
с удовольствием подписался бы на сие издание ...

кстати, статьи про Motown и Stax были в журнале Звукоежиссёр за 2002 год - соотв номера 10 и 9

Мне как музыканту Motown удивительны тем, что по сути это - фабрика хитов, имеющая в своих волшебных цехах массу талантливейшего народу: аранжировщики, музыканты (влияние басиста Motown на Маккартни помните?) и так далее. Причем такая икренняя, такая живая музыка...

у меня всего два, и оба - Ареты Франклин (I've Never... & Lady Soul)

2 SF Sorrow: эээ... да я, в общем, никого ни в чем не обвиняю...
Может, просто автор статьи Мотаун не любил. Или ему Смоки нахамил на старости лет, я не знаю... там, интервью не дал, пластинку не подписал... вот только Going To A Go-Go подписал, а на Away We Are Go-Go уже терпения не хватило... :)) Однако забавная подборка же, согласись.

2 Евгений: ежели интересна душевная музыка :) то могу посодействовать.
У меня, кстати, телефон тоже не всегда занят :)))

А что-нибудь конкретно интересует?

Motown Spruces Up Supremes/Temptations Duets

Motown has set an April 27 release for "Joined Together: The Complete Studio Duets," compiling two discs worth of collaborations between Diana Ross & the Supremes and the Temptations. Some of the tracks were originally released on the late '60s albums "Diana Ross & the Supremes Join the Temptations" and "Together" and are augmented here with a variety of bonus cuts.

"Join the Temptations" featured the smash hit single "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me," plus covers of such Motown staples as "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" and Marvin Gaye's "Try It Baby." The new edition begins with a medley of five songs, including the Supremes' "Stop! In the Name of Love" and also sports previously unreleased covers of the Beatles' "Got To Get You Into My Life" and the Burt Bacharach/Hal David-penned "A House Is Not a Home."

"Together" is loaded with unreleased single and mono mixes of tracks like the Band's "The Weight," Smokey Robinson's "I'll Try Something New" and Gaye's "Stubborn Kind of Fellow." Rounding out the album is a Mary Wilson solo version of "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" and an extended version of "Not Now, I'll Tell You Later," which first appeared on the Temptations' 1966 album "Get Ready."

The packaging for "Joined Together" sports new interviews with Supremes members Ross, Wilson and Cindy Birdsong, plus the Temptations' Otis Williams. The set will be issued a week after the compilation "Motown 1's," featuring the biggest hits from the label's storied past.

Duets Highlight 'Motown 45' Celebration

Gladys Knight's searing version of "Neither One of Us" and Smokey Robinson and newcomer Joss Stone's cover of the Miracles R&B/pop classic "I Second That Emotion" are among the highlights of the upcoming ABC television special "Motown 45." Taped Sunday night at Los Angeles' Shrine Auditorium, the special celebrates Motown Records' hit-filled legacy, pairing the label's original artists and contemporary singers with timeless Motown songs.

Co-hosted by Lionel Richie and Cedric the Entertainer, the event sported such notables as Dick Clark, the Backstreet Boys, comedian George Lopez and 'N Sync's Joey Fatone introducing the various segments.

Though such key Motown players as Diana Ross, Stevie Wonder and Rick James were missing, the taping still managed to serve as a mini-family reunion. Acts such as Martha Reeves & the Vandellas and Thelma Houston were able to catch up with former labelmates the Four Tops, Commodores and original Supremes Mary Wilson and Cindy Birdsong, as well as formidable backing band the Funk Brothers.

Performances taped on Sunday included Destiny's Child's Kelly Rowland teaming with Wilson and Birdsong on a Supremes medley and with Richie on "Endless Love" and Michael McDonald covering Wonder's "Signed, Sealed, Delivered." Nick Lachey and Jermaine Jackson dueted on "I'll Be There" and the Funk Brothers supported "American Idol" finalist Kimberley Locke on "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted" and Gerald Levert on "Do You Love Me."

Brian McKnight and Macy Gray were on hand to celebrate Marvin Gaye, with the former performing "What's Going On" and the latter interpreting "Let's Get It On." Ashford & Simpson took part in the grand finale, joining McDonald, Knight, Robinson and Stone to perform "Ain't No Mountain High Enough."

"I was there from day one," Robinson said backstage. "To be here celebrating the 45th anniversary of Motown goes beyond all our wildest dreams." ABC plans to air "Motown 45" in May.

Лично для меня соул кончился в середине 70-х. Нынешний "соул", переболевший фанком во второй половине 70-х,- это нечто совсем другое, ничем не напоминающее стиль Supremes, Soul Brothers Six, Sweet Inspirations, Temptations, Aretha Franklin, Percy Sledge, Al Green и многих других из того времени.

2 Pacific: прошедшей зимой был неплохой форум на тему соул, где говорилось о его истории и характерных признаках, там найдете много интересной информации.

2 Дед_Alex: Ваш список просто восхищает. Я коллекционирую имена групп и солистов без малого 40 лет и насобирал их тысяч двенадцать, но большинство приведенных в нем исполнителей для меня в новинку. Гран мерси!
