Keyboard sounds from "Skyfri Himmel" by Bjørn Eidsvåg & Ylva
Some of the keyboard sounds from Skyfri Himmel by Bjørn Eidsvåg and Ylva Olaisen.
Both direct out and a piezo pickup are used to record the Wurlitzer 200A. The two signals are processed slightly differently, but are summed together before the amplifier. The Korg MS-20 has been recorded twice. Once with fixed octave selection for the oscillators and once with variable octave selection. The direct signal from the Hammond C3 has also been recorded twice. One for the chords and one for the bass notes. The two signals are mixed together and sent through a reverb pedal and a Leslie 122 rotary speaker.

Você já conhece esta figura como o atual namorado da Rosalyn, mas você conhece literalmente metade dele: Anselmo.
Anselmo tem 1m92, olhos amarelos e quase as mesmas cores de sua amada Rosalyn. É um gato, da mesma espécie dela. No nosso universo isso não é obrigatório, mas ajuda bastante nos relacionamentos.
Mas o mais marcante é seu interesse pela música. Anselmo é baixo profundo desde os 13 anos e tem uma voz impossível de ser ignorada, digamos assim. Além de ser algo meio estranho para uma HQ dessas, organista, pilotando um Hammond C3. (No meu antigo serviço eu convivia direto com essas questões, inclusive quando eles compraram um órgão de tubos à fundo perdido, em vez de investir na minha área, em câmeras.)
(Anselmo tem mãos muito bem definidas, ao contrário do autor!)
Anselmo além de ter uma voz grave, consegue cantar ainda mais grave do que a imensa maioria das pessoas, o que maravilha ou assusta (como iremos saber?) seus interlocutores.
Mas enfim. Algo que seria simplesmente um 'vilão' na concorrência (como Ratigan, Scar ou até o atacante dos Monstars, em Space Jam 1), aqui é o principal coadjuvante. (Uma notável exceção é o elefante Jotalhão, de Maurício de Sousa. Os dois fariam um dueto interessante rsrs)
Anselmo em breve (na HQ) será um artista underground ao lado de um maestro polonês e seus sobrinhos gêmeos, cantando rockabilly, ritmos latinos e outras faixas bizarras.
(Curiosidade: assim como as músicas do EKKA, estas também existem de verdade! Só as vozes que são phalsas, ainda, infelizmente.....)
"CeBá, daonde você tirou isso?" De um monte de coisas, mas principalmente, baseado no cantor americano Thurl Ravenscroft, cujo trabalho mais conhecido foi ser a voz original do Tigre Tony, até 1995, ele se fué em 2005. Tem coisas até da aparência dele no nosso personagem. O caso é que a voz que imaginamos para Anselmo se parece com a de Thurl, mas é cumprida de outra forma, através do plugin AlterEgo, da francesa Plogue, alterando a voz padrão do programa, Bones (a única voz masculina, aliás...)
Conheci Thurl ao procurar informações - inexistentes, inclusive - de quem seria a voz que cantava "Bom dia com Kellogg's" no Xou da Xuxa, em 1987. Não, não era ele, como cheguei a dizer na Internet, trata-se de um brasileiro mesmo e sequer a melodia era como eu me lembrava.
E porquê escrevo estas mal traçadas linhas? Hoje, no meu serviço, sei lá por quê, veio à tona uma música de um seriado da atualidade cantada por baixos, não sei se era Piratas do Caribe (me lembrava até algo relacionado a God of War, que eu nem acompanho) e o pessoal tocou (e mais de uma vez) tendo uma recepção bastante curiosa, em tempos de Pablo da sofrência, Vitas... Lembrando que eu não falo sobre projetos pessoais com eles. Apenas trabalhei e pensei nessas coisas.
O que mostra que, incrivelmente, Anselmo pode surpreender, sendo que a aparência dele evoluiu uns 200% nos últimos anos. O meu objetivo ao criar personagens, no visual, é que eles sejam reconhecíveis em preto e branco, e mesmo pelas extremidades. Não sei se isso seria padrão aí fora.
Eu tenho até receio de apresentar este personagem como tal, é um personagem 'errado', sei lá (como uma cobra do bem, sei lá) e olha que tem MUITAS coisas bisonhas e esquisitas no furry fandom, mas pra mim, Anselmo ganha de todos eles...... Um tiro no escuro, sei lá se ele seria odiado ou teria 25 fãs ardorosos, vai lá se saber!
Transcript of the Merlin portion below (begins at 18:55).
So. Tell us about Merlin.
Oh god! Oh Jesus! Well, that was back in 1821 when the band was formed... It was the first proper band, I guess, proper touring band that I'd been in... Was it? Guess it was. I joined in 1973 and they were called "Madrigal" at the time, and they were known for being a harmony band. And they- y'know, big harmonies, it was really impressive. Not in a Beach Boys way, but it was [unintellible]
Anyway, they got "discovered" by Roger Greenaway and turned into- What he wanted was, he wanted his own version of The Sweet or Mud or the bands that were around at the time. Sort of glam rock things, you know. So he stuck us all in leather catsuits-
Really?
Yeah, and feather boas and stuff, it was hilarious.
Was that very "you" at the time, or was it something...?
Well the fact is that the music was me. The fact is the music was me, so it was- because it was basically a rock band, is what it was. I mean a really good rock band. And the bass player had a Fender Precision and a 100-watt Marshall stack, you know. Keyboard player had a C3 Hammond and a Wurlitzer... In fact, he had- Check this out, anyone who knows anything about keyboards- Imagine being the road crew for this band.
He had a Hammond C3, Wurlitzer electric piano, Hohner Pianet, a Fender Rhodes... No, he didn't have a Rhodes. Um, a double keyboard Mellotron. A Minimoog. And a baby grand piano which was suspended on scaffolding over the C3!
Wow! Really? Wow, that's-
With- And on the lid of the piano which was up like that, the logo of the band was spotlighted-
How cool!
Very cool. And the road crew hated us!
Really? I'll bet they did.
Can you imagine? I mean there were five of them, but even so...
And the Minimoog must've been a quite new instrument then, would that be right? Around that time...?
Well, well no. This is- We turned from Madrigal into Merlin in... '75. By which time it was on a lot of records, and so on. I mean we also used an ARP Synths, Stevie Wonder was big on ARPs. But yeah that was, that was some band…
And you once described them as kind of like a teeny-pop band rivaling Queen. Would you stand by that, or..?
Well. No, I never, I don't think I did - It wasn't me, it was the Melody Maker.
Oh! Oh, really? Right, okay...
Yeah, the Melody Maker had like a two-page spread on us and said- It was called - I've got it somewhere - It was called "Hype in the Pop Market" and it had mirror images of the two bands. It had CBS band Merlin, EMI band Queen. And it listed, you know, who was on guitar, who was on- doing vocals, who was on- And so on. And who was championing this within the production companies and everything. So it was Roy Thomas Baker with Queen, and then Roger Greenaway with us. Turns out, one had more success than the other!
But I remember when I first started playing with The Brian May Band, which had been...
'93?
'93? Yeah, about that, yeah. And when we'd been in rehearsals for a couple of weeks I thought it was safe to bring it up to Brian. And I said, "I used to be in a band- I don't suppose you'd remember a band called Merlin?"
And he went, "You were in Merlin?" He said, "Yeah we were worried about you!"
I said, "You needn't have been, obviously!"
But it was like, we were the rival band for about ten minutes. And then we realized how massively talented Queen were...
This coming Monday, Jan 16, 2023 will be the inaugural San Diego Hammond Organ Jam at The Jazz Lounge on El Cajon Blvd in the College Area (just west of of 70th Street). We will be featuring my classic 1959 Hammond C3 with two Leslie speakers (145 and 122).

This company re-issued the famous hammond B3/A100/C3. In itself that is not very special, except for the fact that the Pari.e ‘new’ K61 contains REAL tonewheels, It’s weight is less then 50 kg, and cost less then €5000 for a new one..It sounded just as good as the original thing.
Was very promising: Pari.e in Italy.
———————————-
This is the original one I own myself; A Hammond A100 1960. A true beauty, but impossible to use on stage because of it’s weight.
Note: Copertina apribile a libretto con all'interno una fotografia dell'artista - Busta interna con i crediti dell'album - La prima tiratura di stampa comprendeva un inserto allegato con i testi delle canzoni (vedi link "Altre immagini") / Fotografia di Lucky - Grafica di Luciano Tallarini / Coordinamento di Fabrizio Intra / Registrato da Christophe Bonno negli studi Le Château di Herouvillé (Francia) / Distribuito da CGD Messaggerie Musicali - Milano / La ristampa del 1984 ha numero di catalogo diverso (CBS 466532 1) e matrici diverse (CI CBS 466532-1L/CI CBS 466532-2L) e sul retro della copertina è cancellata l'indicazione della distribuzione da parte della CGD Messaggerie Musicali - Milano.
Between 1979 and 1985 all band members were engaged in various projects. Keith Emerson recorded several soundtracks and in 1981 he recorded his first official solo album called Honky. This album has got an excellent remastered version in 2013. Not only the music sounds better, but also the information inside the booklet with new liner notes, pictures and line-ups is top-notch!
Honky was recorded in the Bahamas and 'honky' is what the local children called Keith while he was there! The pictures inside the booklet show that Emerson's stay there was primarily a holiday, so this album was recorded in a relaxed, carefree spirit. For this record Emerson used the following instruments: Yamaha CP30, MiniMoog, Hammond C3, Korg 3100 & 3300, Steinway concert grand model D, Yamaha grand and a vocoder. Emerson isn't the only musician who can be heard on Honky. He got some assistance from Kendall Stubbs (bass), Neil Seymonette and Frank Scully (drums), Mott (guitar), Andrew Brennen, Dick Morrissey and Pete King (all on saxophone) and Shelley Lightbourner and The Kayla Lockhart Singers (vocals).
The album certainly contains some fine musical moments which can be enjoyed by lovers of prog rock. Especially the album's opener Hello Sailor is an amazing piece of music. This is a kind of mini-suite divided into three pieces called Introduction, Bach Before The Mast and Hello Sailor Finale. This suite comes closest to what Keith Emerson is famous for with the albums he recorded with ELP. The first part is performed on the piano and tends towards a style that can be heard on albums such as Brain Salad Surgery (1973) and Works, volume 1 (1977). Bach Before The Mast written by the British pianist George Malcolm is an arranged version which holds some classical influences. Salt Cay is also worthwhile listening to. The song contains some reworked themes from ELP's Pirates from the album Works, volume 1, written by Emerson for an Italian TV show.
Green Ice is a kind of fusion; this composition was part of a rejected score that Emerson wrote for the eponymous movie. I think that Honky contains tracks that Emerson just recorded for fun. Listen for instance to Intro-juicing. I don't know whether he was drunk at the time he recorded it, but he speaks and sings rather funny. He even introduced himself as a DJ. Big Horn Breakdown is another rather silly tune with a kind of honky-tonk piano playing style and this also applies to the funny boogie-woogie sounding piece Yancey Special. You could describe this track as being ' Status Quo for piano' since it holds all the elements you can hear on their greatest hits. Only the saxophone has replaced the heavy riffing guitars.
Rum A Ting is a piece of music you either like or hate depending whether you like Caribbean music or not. The junkanoo percussion is used prominently here; in a way it reminded me of Teakbois by Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman & Howe on their eponymous album (1989, see review). The funniest track on the album is probably Jesus Loves Me. This kind of gospel song sounds as if it was recorded at a local church in the Bahamas completely with a gospel choir and a reverend. You can't take this song too seriously, I guess!
The mixture of serious and funny tunes on Emerson's first official solo album won't be liked by all prog heads. I think many people who listened to the album for the first time must have been disappointed. They probably expected the kind of music which Emerson made with ELP. However, I had no problem at all and I still enjoy Honky!
OPETH - "Hjärtat Vet Vad Handen Gör" / "Heart In Hand" ( In Cauda Venenum - September 27, 2019)
Just posted yesterday... the first taste of the new “The Poison is in the Tail” album from Opeth, due in late September!
Warning: This is not a 17-minute song, but an 8-1/2 minute song sung in Swedish, then in English (you probably know that I like native-language songs the best).
Enjoy!

Four Flies Records continues its 7” line-up with another de rigueur repechage that will have your dancefloor jump frantically up and down. Two freaky afro-flavoured tracks, written by Giuliano Sorgini and his partner in musical delices Alessandro Alessandroni. Recorded during a non-specified session which may be traced back to the recording of Sorgini’s UNDER POMPELMO and PAWNSHOP's first 7”. The sound and the ideas behind the music are exactly the same, even though there’s more rhythmic and percussive emphasis on both tracks. Two little precious gems, unreleased to this day, brought back to light and finally available for DJs and fans all over the world. Afrodelic breaks for your pleasure!
