Frank Zappa - Joe's Corsage. 30/05/2004

Joe's Corsage es un álbum de material grabado por el músico y compositor estadounidense Frank Zappa con The Mothers of Invention a mediados de los años 1960, antes de la grabación de su álbum debut Freak Out! de 1966. El álbum fue compilado por el archivista musical Joe Travers, siendo su título un juego de palabras con otro álbum del artista llamado Joe's Garage.

Varias de las grabaciones que aparecen en Joe's Corsage son versiones demos de canciones que después aparecieron en Freak Out!. La primera serie de demos, probablemente grabados en 1965, cuentan con el guitarrista Henry Vestine, que después formaría Canned Heat.

Good Tunes With CANNED HEAT

Canned Heat rose to fame because their knowledge and love of blues music was both wide and deep. Emerging in 1966, Canned Heat was founded by blues historians and record collectors Alan “Blind Owl” Wilson and Bob “The Bear” Hite. Hite took the name “Canned Heat” from a 1928 recording by Tommy Johnson. They were joined by Henry “The Sunflower” Vestine, another ardent record collector who was a…

Très jeune, Henry Vestine manifeste un goût pour les "disques de race" ainsi que la musique Hillbilly et cajun, mais se passionne pour le blues en écoutant Skip James qu'il finit par rencontrer.. En 1965 son ami Alan Wilson le fait venir dans Canned Heat. Il participe avec eux au Monterey Pop Festival en 1967, avant de quitter le groupe pour rester dans un blues plus pur. Frank Zappa l'invite à son tour mais Vestine préfère continuer son parcours de bluesman. Il meurt à Gonesse en 1997. Le magazine Rolling Stone l'a classé 77 ème meilleur guitariste de tous les temps.

This is the lineup I saw in 69 or 70. Harvey Mandel had replaced Henry “Sunflower” Vestine and Al Wilson was still alive.

Canned Heat in Bravo Magazine, December 1968

[rolloroberson]

Don’t forget to boogie! Boogie with Canned Heat, the second album by Canned Heat, was released on Jan. 21, 1968. The album also heavily featured the talents of Malcolm Rebbenack aka Dr. John.

It contains mostly original material, unlike their debut album. It is the band's most commercially successful album, reaching number 16 in the US and number 5 in the UK.

A significant reason for its success is because it includes the top 10 hit "On the Road Again", one of their best-known songs. "Amphetamine Annie", a warning about the dangers of amphetamine abuse, also received considerable airplay. "Fried Hockey Boogie" was the first example of one of Canned Heat's boogies, or loose jams that the band reworked as “Woodstock Boogie” when they played the festival in August 1969.

This was the first album of their classic lineup where each member adopted a nickname:

Bob “The Bear” Hite – lead vocals

Alan “Blind Owl” Wilson – slide guitar, harmonica, lead vocals on "On the Road Again" and "An Owl Song"

Henry “Sunflower” Vestine - lead guitar

Larry “The Mole” Taylor – bass guitar

Adolfo “Fito” de la Parra – drums

The album also features pianist Sunnyland Slim on “Turpentine Moan.” Dr. John plays piano on the other tracks and did the horn arrangements.

Happy 54th birthday to “Boogie With Canned Heat”!

Canned Heat lip- and flute - syncing to "Goin Up the Country." I bet they were fun to hang with.

Canned Heat turned to audience favorites after their Woodstock gig. In 1969 they had already added psychedelic elements to their blues influenced songs and their Boogie Rock kept the people dancing. They hit the stage on Saturday, the 16th at about 7.30 pm. The gig took place during sunset which occurred at 7.56 pm. The sky was cloudy so it was a little bit darker than usual. The set list was wisely chosen and featured their greatest hits: “Going Up the Country” and “On the Road Again”, the last one as the encore. The song “Woodstock Boogie” is basically an almost 30 minute jam, also including a drum solo. (on their album Boogie With Canned Heat (1968) the song is called “Fried Hockey Boogie”) Members included~ Larry “The Mole” Taylor ~  bass guitar Henry “Sunflower” Vestine ~ guitar Bob “The Bear” Hite ~  co-founder, co-lead vocalist Alan “The Blind Owl” Wilson ~  co-founder, leader, co-lead singer Adolpo “Fito” de la Parra ~ drums
