A chicken race is life, I tell you!
Elle P's voice has character, just this intensity that it takes to get stuck in a rather extravagant music-loving ears. She sings in her performances, polished, unpolished but already time brucenaumannesk letters with wax the same way that a prurient viewer to look inside quite put in the letters ...

Palmolive, the Spanish who lived in the early London punk
It may sound like Palmolive toothpaste, but nothing is further from the truth. Paloma Romero, aka Palmolive is a Malaga who left Spain during the dictatorship to go to London, where he lived the birth of punk: he played with Sid Vicious, Joe Strummer was girlfriend and toured with The Slits and The Raincoats. Today he lives with his family in Massachusetts and found in God what punk did not give. We thought great enough to give this interview.
Spanish by the world keeps secrets. A boring Sunday afternoon I came to see the program on Boston and between witness and testimony of ordinary people who enjoy life outside of Spain came as a revelation, Paloma: a gay woman wearing for 22 years on the coast of Massachusetts working as a teacher. All normal until the voiceover warns: "give his life for a documentary." Dove, sitting on the beach, smiles and begins his presentation. "At 18, I wanted to know the world and London meant freedom. I met Joe Strummer there. "
"Who is Joe Strummer?" Replies a bold reporter.
Blessing went on my ignorance and looked more alert. Who was this dove?
LONDON
London, 70's. What times, eh? The world was in crisis, oil, and the United Kingdom, with epic levels of youth unemployment, some young people started to sing there was no future. But before finding freedom and paradise there, in Spain, where we were still in another plan, Paloma tried his luck in Madrid.
"Do you remember anything good about Madrid minimally that time?" Inquerimos on a list of questions via email. "Madrid was from January to June 73. To be honest, not much. But do not afflicted Madrid, rather my situation there. The University of San Blas, I think new that year was not the best. Every time he spoke in class (Sociology, was what I had signed up) people laughed in my Andalusian accent. The cops always behind us, I was thinking it was a political link or something, because I had a friend Trotskyist and had been abroad. "
At the same time, John Graham Mellor, then a young man who called himself Woody and then pass to Joe Strummer, "lounging" (as described in this book about The Clash) as Europe was already playing with musician Tymon Dogg on the subway. "I ended up in Wales after my apprenticeship with Tymon, since there seemed no way of earning a living in London or even to survive. That was before I discovered the homes of squatters. "
LIFE ON ROAD 101 Walterton
The 101'ers were the prequel to The Clash, the first group of Joe Strummer. The name, referring to the squat of 101 Walterton RD. The reason, make some money. "I lived in a squat in Maida Hill," continues Joe in the book, "and believed that playing in pubs could help me financially to survive summer. It was the first time I thought about mounting a group of electric rock and roll, but my only ambition was to spend the summer without having to run around the subway when kicked me out of the pubs. "
"When I met Woody was a little after," says Dove. "At that time he had great ambitions to play in pubs. To me the truth I never cared that much money, it always seemed that I managed. I did not mind living in a squat. I was quite hippy. I started because I thought it was funny and I felt restless and bored. "
They say that this song was a dedication to Woody, Joe Strummer, Paloma.
In October 1975, The 101'ers went to another house occupied, in which installed under a more professional than Walterton Road. I was in Orsett Terrace and there composed the Clash, the band's first album.
- I have found quoted in the book of The Clash. Strummer says that London's Burning wrote while you were sleeping in the house occupied in Orsett Terrace, in short to not wake up.
Well did not know, was asleep :)
- What your parents told you all this?
I think my parents had given up because they knew what I was stubborn and I was not going to change.
A stubborn
Redemption Song The book also reports this stubbornness. At the time when Joe Strummer was decided to mount the Clash, Paloma was in Scotland. "I had doubts about the viability of the relationship with Joe and needed some space." According to the book, Paloma returned to London with enthusiasm for Joe, but he had decided "to be with their friends. And his friends were The Clash ".
"I left a couple of months to Scotland, we kept in touch by phone. During that time, punk Happened. When I had seen the light, I wanted to be with him (...) I went to a pub to find him, put my arms around him, very seriously said, 'I'll be a punk rocker'. Got back together but it was never the same, I was insecure and he moved back to Orsett Terrace ".
"Paloma formed The Slits in a fit of rage," says Jill Calvert (producer of The Clash). "I had never before been in the music this way. He took the battery and thought, if you can do, I can do it. " Together, The Clash and The Slits did the White Riot Tour, but when The Slits released their debut album, Paloma had already left the band. "I got fired. What provoked in some way: he had begun to lose interest, "he explains in this extensive interview.
Dove (second from left) supported by Ari Up
Now part of The Raincoats. It lasted six months, a tour and EP. "After the first album by The Raincoats, went on tour. Even before the tour wanted to quit, but we had a deal so did not either run. So I thought I the tour, and Then I'm done ".
GOD
So, once done, Paloma went to India and left the 'punk'. And here begins the encounter with Jesus as Paloma herself explains in his biography, in India found and shared disappointments with Tymon Dogg (the paragraph above with Joe Strummer who had dawdled for Europe). She met her husband, left India and returned to Spain. And then, "ready to find the truth, left their home in Spain and went to a New Age center in England."
"Walking around, in the midst of my confusion, I decided to ask a student who spoke with conviction about his relationship with Christ. He explained that Christ was a real person, not an evasion 'Christ consciousness' as advocated anthroposophy. You could just pray and have a personal relationship with Jesus. It was about how to contact God. It sounded like music to my ears. " The history and biblical quotations continue on their own website. But what was his love affair with punk?
"THE PUNK does not provide solutions, was shaking ONLY YOUR CONSCIENCE FOR YOU will be searching"
- Where do you punk music today?
There is something I always liked punk and like me, who is deciding to play an instrument and experiment with sounds until you find what sounds good to you. Today there are a punk sounds that I can draw but for me it's very important what they are saying the lyrics. Today I want to sing about robbing Mr Paki, or be the Enemy # 1 or sing with Johnn Lydon I am an antichrist! I'm not, in fact I love Jesus as a person and God. The only problem is that punk provided no solution, it will only shake his consciousness so that you shopped. All energy was focused on living a present. "
- You do not share at all, the philosophy of 'living a present'?
Well, let's go by parts. I think that punk itself provide solutions - bad, but solutions. Do not be afraid to say bad. Sid Vicious was one of the most eminent figures of punk as it emerged and look where it led. He killed his girlfriend and then killed by overdose. It was a way of life: express your anger, do not worry about anyone but you, do whatever you want at any time, rebel against any form of authority. After the dancing, intellectuals looked at the movement and gave the 'twist' that the goal was to break the mold so that people could find their own values. I do believe in living in the present is really all we have. I believe in a wonderful future. But I try to live the present, my present.
- Are you back to London? Would you like to come back?
Yes, I would like very much.
- I get the feeling that you are a person who has taken advantage of her freedom, has been honest with herself and always has been seeking their own values. Do you regret anything?
Only for not accepting the truth of Jesus before!

Carl Sherlock Holmes Investigation No.1
"Again and again Tramp Records," thinks the disk with rare groove lovers heart. Tobias Kirmayer label head simply has a lot of staying power and the skill required meticulous old, almost forgotten discs to dig up and license. After more than compelling fourth installment of his rare groove compilation series "Movemtents" Now another treasure from the 1960s, followed by uplift, which is quite something. Carl "Sherlock" Holmes has published the early 1960s with The Commander Atlantic on an album that fans could just sit up like Soul in the following 7inches for Verve Records, Parkway or blackjack. The combo broke up, however, because of the success was local and manageable. Mastermind Carl Holmes founded a new band called Sherlock Holmes Investigation. This was only an album for the CRS label from Philadelphia.
Four songs from this album for years hardly discoverable Tramp Records released as a single. They reflected the sound of the 45s-lost album, "Investigation No. 1" on. Latin-inspired pieces, dirty radio riffs, typical drum breaks, bass and brass. In the tradition of classic funk / soul works at this time, which of course must always be measured with the great James Brown. The mini-factory that can (only 8 songs) all. Only the ballad would have been in this but can save almost theatrical form. The rest is very good switching between raw funk and soul crunchy. "Get Down Philly Town" or "black bag" every rock, every party really could have a relevance in that kind of music!
After four singles tramp has licensed the album and again yielded to the demand, and digital and post it on CD.

Good Old War - Come Back As Rain (2012)
Get on the roof of your house on a Sunday at noon. Clear day, bright sunshine, sports newspaper and a pack of Marlboro. All the stars are aligned for you to enjoy one of those moments that it deserves the adjective "perfect time to relax." Well, all the elements do not match, missing soundtrack. You take your MP3 player and looking for an artist that fits the situation. ¿Jimmy Eat World? No. Surfact? Too hard, perhaps. ¿She & Him? Nor. At that moment you think "What if I throw myself to try" Come Back As Rain "from Good Old War?". And you do. And, almost accidentally, give the spot.
Something of this record I have, at least relatively, spellbound. Clearly this is an LP manners, yes. The Philadelphia have continued with the good folk and distilled in their previous two LPs - "Good Old War," "Only Way To Be Alone" - and that seems to find its total hatching time of the "Come Back As Rain" that have real pearls of less than four minutes. One is 'Amazing Eyes', the third song on the album which despite being very sencillito has a delicious aura that makes him a special court. Try the live version, which resembles tremendously to the study:
The single 'Calling Me Names' is perhaps the best known of this third of Americans. We understand that this is so (in fact even has a beautiful video and all) but we believe that the beer is elsewhere a "Come Back As Rain," which, despite being too linear, is why. 'Not Quite Happiness' is another great cut that has that warm, exquisite and vibrant make him frankly brilliant piece. O 'Present For The End Of The World', which serves as a perfect end to an album that serves as a suitable compact to account towards our highest moments of tranquility.
If you are someone you love fun and summery folk, "Come Back As Rain" is one of the first proposals for this year to take into account for the Indian summer ahead. The spreading joy always ends with some guys that always go with a big smile ahead.

Fun - Some Nights (2012)
Very occasionally you see any record that might change the game. Recall the case of "Bon Iver, Bon Iver" Justin Vernon. The album was released on June 17, 2011 and almost immediately went on to serve as a reference for much of the cast of artists who camped in the meadow of international indie folk. This paradigm shift in trends can be repeated a year later, and the world of indie pop with more mainstream side, with the advent of "Some Nights" of New Yorkers Fun
The second LP from Nate Ruess (formerly of The Format) is acojonantemente monumental. The sound makes "Some Nights" makes it sound easy a very complex mixture pass through the blender of hip hop, pop and sparkle worthy of Queen indie pop art. The two most pretentious album hits - the mammoth 'Some Nights' or first single' We Are Young "in which collaborates Janelle Monáe - are the most obvious reflection of the" clash "style which is the latest entry in the protected Fueled By Ramen.
Define each and every one of the themes of this album in one paragraph is a really, really fucked. The eleven tracks that comprise "Some Nights" have their own life: some have a touch more soul / funk ('Stars', 'Why I Am The One'), others give free reign to the grandiose fantasies of Ruess by a hip hop like Kanye West or Jay-Z. Not to speak of the cuts that refer directly to the formation of Freddy Mercury, that if any any (listen the intro to 'Some Nights' where everything is clear from the very beginning).
The "indie" more posers than in 2009 praised the load. People spend far understood them. Yes, all those characters that encumbraron alternative to "Aim and Ignite" now reject all that is born of the axis of a band that has already begun to make history in more commercial musical circle. We, from Binaural, we do not care what people think. "Some Nights" is a great album that recalls the shift away from that generated in the emergence of alternative rock "From Under The Cork Tree" Fall Out Boy. If you love music vitamin, cheerful pop-cutting and will probably love this "game changer" in LP. The jubilation at its max-mix version, is here. Enjoy!
Score | 85 to 100
You can listen to "Some Nights" in full in the attached streaming in the same inning.

Dawes and Robert Ellis in Madrid (Sala Sun, 29 February 2012)
This is Texas, dude! The Sun Room became Madrid on Wednesday in a bar in Austin, a stronghold of drinkers of whiskey on the rocks, jeans and boots with spurs ...-well, they were more plaid shirts and the occasional beer firm U.S.. But the point is that we all live, breathe and feel a banjo, a branch of hay, chewing snuff and a wooden porch in the middle of arid land. It was a mirage, that of the country, coming from the guitar (not banjo) by Robert Ellis, the most worthy opening act Dawes.
Thus began the night with a hairy fun between songs was grateful for the opportunity to be playing to a packed house but when he began to pinch the strings of the guitar with a speed and accuracy "worthy of a heavy ', not made concessions to anyone except the country. He got his guitar solo and fill, more if possible, the already crowded space. Special mention for songs like "Photographs", in the words of a neophyte-country, was one of the great moments of the performance of Ellis. Melancholy microphone, direct shot sensiblonas souls, of those subjects that ensimisman even unwittingly.
He apologized, "I would love to write happy songs ..." but Ellis out songs about loneliness, the boob tube, isolation, boredom and taste that gives deserts driving from Austin to Houston Texans, as in "Comin 'Home", prompting more animated shouting a "yiiiha" (some people, rightly, did not hold back). After hacérnoslos go great with a crazy "not fun", met with members of Dawes making a nod to Randy Newman on "Rider in the rain". Ellis looked like one of the gang: very good filling, very good tribute to classic country.
Thus began the first throes of Dawes, now in version of Newman pointed ways. And that way is not their records. Without wishing to offend anyone, are soporific at times. However, on stage everything changes, and so pass disk folkies as rockers on stage. Despite the high volume of excessive micro Taylor Goldsmith that plugged into the keyboard repeatedly Tay Strathairn and low Wylie Gelber, all had their day (and very height) with "Peace in the Valley", which stretched to ecstasy instrumental music of the night.

The magic of the concert Dawes is precisely the ability to sound as powerful without being aggressive, so energetic without being strident, as "present" today despite having a taste old, classic ... the ability to be in the age " hipster post-wave-and-do-more "as could be in the 70's and not sound dated. I say 70's because the only comment that was heard after the concert was the obvious comparison with Crosby, Stills & Nash and Young. Obvious and tiresome.
Sounds like your references, to the music suck, but are capable of making us see something different on stage with what is enjoyable because it is well done (listen to "Coming Back To a Man", for example, was a delight). Neither Robert Ellis and Dawes invented gunpowder. Not even the reinvented in any way, nor have revolutionized the world of folk out of the bowels American these days running. But neither lack that makes them, with an impeccable live and a result that shocked.
Thus began the night with a hairy fun between songs was grateful for the opportunity to be playing to a packed house but when he began to pinch the strings of the guitar with a speed and accuracy "worthy of a heavy ', not made concessions to anyone except the country. He got his guitar solo and fill, more if possible, the already crowded space. Special mention for songs like "Photographs", in the words of a neophyte-country, was one of the great moments of the performance of Ellis. Melancholy microphone, direct shot sensiblonas souls, of those subjects that ensimisman even unwittingly.
He apologized, "I would love to write happy songs ..." but Ellis out songs about loneliness, the boob tube, isolation, boredom and taste that gives deserts driving from Austin to Houston Texans, as in "Comin 'Home", prompting more animated shouting a "yiiiha" (some people, rightly, did not hold back). After hacérnoslos go great with a crazy "not fun", met with members of Dawes making a nod to Randy Newman on "Rider in the rain". Ellis looked like one of the gang: very good filling, very good tribute to classic country.
Thus began the first throes of Dawes, now in version of Newman pointed ways. And that way is not their records. Without wishing to offend anyone, are soporific at times. However, on stage everything changes, and so pass disk folkies as rockers on stage.

Shane McGowan (The Pogues)
In the early 90's there was a wide variety of local New Yorkers who served as a springboard for famous musicians. One was the Sin-é, a classic music of the East Village bar which made it to enjoy the talent of Sinead O'Connor, Shane McGowan (The Pogues), PJ Harvey and our hero of the day today: Californian Jeff Buckley.
The son of the folk myth, Tim Buckley dropped by 122 from St Mark's Place two different evenings in the summer of 1993. I had not recorded their debut album - "Grace", 1994 - so both evenings, made specifically on 19 July and 17 August of that year, served as a tasty snack of that great album that was coming to captivate the world.
The material was recorded within the four walls of the local East Village New York went on to achieve such a level of excellence that the Columbia did not hesitate to release it as PD (and years later as a double live album) in December 1993. With a setlist consisting of a total of 45 subjects, Buckley played both their perennial classics as some tasty covers of proven quality cuts of artists by the name of Nina Simone, Van Morrison, Led Zeppelin and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. It's really hard to highlight some of the interpretations made in both New York hot summer evenings, but even so, we may venture to say that the direct 'Hallelujah' is the best we have enjoyed to date.
I must admit that I certainly can not describe the feelings that generates listening to this. In 'Hallelujah' is there so much anger, so much passion and so many flashes of great integrity and insecurity duality that one is unable to deserve adjectives like one of the best productions that have ever made. The direct issue brings you good just to enjoy it. With this release something unprecedented happens: you feel being there, just a meter from Jeff. You even get to inhale the smell of the freshly painted white walls of the Sin-é, or perceive the superlative admiration professed by the fortunate few, silent, witness the historic evening.
From Binaural.es I can only listen to recommend strongly that the 'Hallelujah' Sin-é as best they deserve. Close your windows. Lights out. Increase the volume on your mini system. And fly away, let yourself go. This is the world of Jeff, and he, from heaven, I remember that reigned magic of music for two hot days of summer 1993. And thanks to "Live At Sin-é" will remain in our memories. For the rest of our days.
