Wednesday, June 5: M.A.R.S., "Nations on Fire"

“Nations on Fire” was OTT and shreddy even by Shrapnel standards, which was really saying something.  It wasn’t quite reasonable to call M.A.R.S. a supergroup, since only Rudy Sarzo and Tommy Aldridge had really made their bones as part of major acts- Tony MacAlpine and Rob Rock would gain more notoriety a few years later as journeymen players, though neither would break through in a significant way.  The sheer frenzy of the track actually felt more in line with what Rob Rock would soon deliver, both on his own and with Chris Impellitteri: it went straight for the jugular and never let up, with MacAlpine and Aldridge in particular really going for it (not for nothing would Aldridge segue right from this to touring behind Whitesnake’s 1987, mostly on account of being able to handle the double bass on “Bad Boys”).  It was more than a little ridiculous, but it was also more than a little effective, kicking ass with precision but also without regard for niceties.

[pluto-bringer-of-gloom]

His best work since Sound From Beyond, and a marked improvement upon such!

This Grecian demigod is one to follow.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Richard Attenborough, Ingrid Bergman, my cousin-in-law Janice Brenneman, Kyle Cook (Matchbox 20), Chris Copping (Procol Harum), Reuben Councill, Charles Finney, Elizabeth Fraser (Cocteau Twins), Diamanda Galás, Elliott Gould, Carla Gugino, Dick Halligan, Fred Holland, Michael Jackson, Nathan Ernie Lashlee, David Lim, John Locke, Tony MacAlpine, Bennie Maupin, John McCain, Sterling Morrison, Me'Shell Ndegéocello, Oasis 1994 DEFINITELY MAYBE album, Mao Oz, Wilhelm Hieronymus Pachelbel, Charlie Parker, Liam Payne (One Direction), Pebbles, Iggy Pop’s 1977 LUST FOR LIFE album, Cliff Richard’s 1958 “Move It!” single, Vivien Thomas, Consuelo Velázquez, Vishal, Dinah Washington, and my friend and early career mentor, composer-keyboardist-trombonist-vocalist Bob Hogins. He made his mark in the 1970s San Francisco music scene, most visibly with Harvey Mandel, Buddy Miles, and Santana. I met Bob after he’d turned his life over to God and devoted himself to classical and contemporary Christian music projects. He compelled me to up my game in musical discipline and expand myself as a bassist and singer.

From 1981-87 I played with Bob almost weekly in an eclectic church worship group. We fanned out into recording, pop-rock musicals, and playing in gospel vocal groups that shared bills with Zoe, a Grateful Dead spin-off w/Donna Godchaux and David MacKay (Ark, Michael Nesmith). As I worked with Bob in various projects, he introduced me to Buddy Miles, Pat Craig (Tazmanian Devils), Frank Souza, Marcus Uzilevsky, and other talents who’d affect my career in varying degrees. I feel indebted to Bob as a talented, warm-hearted musician, and great teacher.

Regrettably I do not have at hand any recordings of work Bob and I did, but here’s one of my favorite tracks that Bob played some sizzling organ on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_tgfWBHdig ...Meanwhile, HB BH and thank you for your amazing contributions to all of us.

Actual bday sucked but at least I'm off today so managed to snag a lot of records I been wanting off ebay for cheaper locally. The tony macalpine one was something I didn't expect to find but its my second favorite and for 9 bucks it's real nice to have.

First 7 string guitar solo: Rocky George.

Tony MacAlpine: the only dude out classing Yngwie Malmsteen in 80s neo classical metal.

(I like prog metal, okay?) Tosin Abasi is one of the greatest guitar players, and he never gets the recognition he deserves.

Beautiful, soulful guitar solo.

Super experimental but I love it.

like black people are present in every single fucking genre and scene and popularized and straight up created several but people are so fucking hell bent on finding every possible excuse to not engage with their music because its easier than trying to confront their own racism. like okay well if its truly just a disinterest in most rap music then surely you listen to black artists in other genres right? who am i fucking kidding. of course you dont.

From Spanish guitar to ethnic folk, R&B influences, and screaming leads, Nili Brosh’s (Tony MacAlpine, Cirque du Soleil, Dethklok)’s third album, Spectrum, takes the listener through a unique journey of genres. Seemingly quite different from one another, Spectrum shows how various styles can relate to each other and tell a story, reminding us that music – much like humans – is pretty much all the…
