pitaahan tamakin nyt perustaa. keikkaan puolitoista kuukautta, sleater-kinney ikaankuin lampparina kun naen ne edellisena paivana taalla. Patti on Kaikkea, Patti on Kaikki. Tahtoisin matkustaa New Yorkiin 70-luvulle, lahinna nahdakseni Pattimaailman!

Horses on ehka paras levy ikina.

Horses on totta kai mahtava, mutta viimevuotinen Trampin' on kans loistava! eek

:center::huig::center: · 13.07.2005 13:48

näinhän se on. alkuinnostuksen jälkeen vähän hiipui, mutta onhan pattin ääni levyllä kauniimpi kuin iginä ja hienoja biisejä, etenkin mother rose. IHKUU JA KAANISTA!3rtfgg

blgr · 13.07.2005 13:50

JOO. Trampin' on melkein yhtä hyvä ku horses. Radio Etioopiakin on hyvä muttei ehkä ihan niin hyvä.

Ja ohan Easterkin! Pari ihan loistavaa juttua. Ja jopa Gung Hooo on myös kiva.

En ole koskaan hukannut levyä, varmaan osaksi sen takia, että niin harvoin joudun niitä lainailemaan. Mutta uusin Patti-levy meni viime kesänä valitettavasti hukkaan, mikä on harmi, koska kyseessä on erinomainen levy.

leposi · 13.07.2005 15:43

En oo Horsesii kuunnellu niinku miljoonaan vuoteen. Patti on aina ollu jotenkin kaukainen. Enemmän kuuntelen niitä naisia jotka ovat ottaneet vaikutteita hänestä. Tiedän, että keikalla leijailen jossain tuolla pilvilinnoissa, koska nytkin kun vaan vähän kuulen niitä tuttuja biisiejä niin kylmät väreet vaan hiipii. Patti Smith on minun salarakas.

Patti Smithille arvomerkki Ranskasta

Amerikkalainen punkrokkari Patti Smith on saanut yhden Ranskan merkittävimmistä kulttuuriarvomerkeistä. Taiteen ritarimerkin ojensi kulttuuriministeri Renaud Donnedieu de Vabersilta aids-tukikonsertin yhteydessä Pariisissa sunnuntaina.

Smith lukeutuu newyorkilaisen rockelämän arvotetuimpiin nimiin. Hänen vuonna 1975 ilmestynyt esikoisalbumiansa Horses lasketaan usein kaikkien aikojen merkittävimpien rockalbumien joukkoon.

Smithin suurin hitti on kuitenkin Bruce Springsteenin kanssa yhdessä kirjoitettu Because The Night, joka ilmestyi vuonna 1978 Easter-albumilla.

Two-Disc Legacy Special Edition Features Newly Remastered "Horses" Album + "Horses" 30th Anniversary Performance Recorded Live At 2005 Meltdown Festival

"Horses Horses" In Stores November 8

(dateline - New York - August 19, 2005; source: Columbia Records)

November 2005 marks the 30th anniversary of the release of Patti Smith's debut album, Horses, a groundbreaking rock & roll masterpiece which continues its unparalleled influence on rock music, style and culture. Arista/Columbia/Legacy Recordings will celebrate this musical milestone with the release of Horses Horses, a two-disc Legacy Special Edition of Patti Smith's debut album, on Tuesday, November 8.
Disc One of Horses Horses features the original album, in its entirety, along with the bonus track, Patti's interpretation of the Who's classic "My Generation." Initially released as the B-side to "Gloria," the first single from Horses, in 1975, "My Generation" features John Cale, the album's producer, on bass. The Legacy Special Edition of Horses has been remastered by Greg Calbi producing superior sound to previous editions of the album.

The second disc of Horses Horses showcases Patti Smith and her Band--Lenny Kaye (guitar), Jay Dee Daugherty (drums), Tony Shanahan (bass), Tom Verlaine (guitar) and featuring Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers--performing the complete Horses album live, with a "My Generation" encore, at the Royal Festival Hall in London on June 25, 2005. This historic performance of Horses was the culminating concert at the 2005 Meltdown Festival, which was curated by Patti Smith. (Lenny Kaye and Jay Dee Daugherty were both members of the ensemble that played on the original Horses while Tom Verlaine was a guest artist on the 1975 album).
Horses Horses comes packaged with a deluxe booklet featuring rare archival photographs, ephemera, lyrics and documentation of the 2005 concert as well as Paul Williams' provocative essay on "Gloria."

[quote:9de3e470b3]Patti has the power

Thirty years after she burst on to the New York music scene, three events at Patti Smith's highly personal Meltdown festival show her to be an inspired curator and still very much a star

Molloy Woodcraft
Sunday June 26, 2005
The Observer

Television
The Coral Sea
Stand Bravely Brothers
South Bank, London SE1
Number one on everyone's list at Meltdown this year was its curator Patti Smith's live performance last night - the first ever - of her album Horses, with a band headed by John Cale. But Television's two-night stint came a close second in the New York punk rock hero stakes.

The crowd at the intimate gig are of all ages, clear testament to the magnetic and enduring appeal of the band's material. The musicians amble on to the stage like the old mates they are and, despite their craggy appearance and the way they seem to move independently, they gel beautifully. Bass player Fred Smith lays down big, solid lines behind Verlaine and Richard Lloyd's riffs.

The two guitarists are perfect counterweights, Verlaine providing chugging backings to Lloyd's tumbling, semi-psychedelic lines. It's interesting how their longer numbers appear to be heading ever closer to prog: I suppose that's what you get for playing the same material together over and over for nigh on three decades.
If the set falls down, it is over Verlaine's voice; granted the sound is poor in the QEH but he doesn't seem to stretch himself until the end. That said, 'Marquee Moon' and 'Little Johnny Jewel' are storming.

And then there's the encore. More than any other curator since the Meltdown began in 1994, Patti Smith has involved herself in her events. Hers has been the impetus behind the themed evenings such as Songs of Innocence, the tribute to Wiliam Blake, and Songs of Experience, the one for Jimi Hendrix, which closes the festival this evening, and she has been so much more inventive than many who have come before her. Perhaps that is because she is more than just a musician; poetry is as much her motivation as music. Here, she comes back on with the band to perform her own poem about Ophelia. If she arrives looking kittenish, she soon works up some thunder over the group's spiky rock. Her voice is simply brilliant.

I bump into a friend after the next night's event who tells me she was prompted to drive up to London without a ticket when she heard Smith on the radio saying that it was the night she was most looking forward to.

The performance is to be a reading of excerpts from Smith's long elegiac poem The Coral Sea, written for her late, great friend, the photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. After a suitably hushed and intense introductory half-hour with the singer Cat Power, Smith arrives on stage with Kevin Shields, the rangy guitar star at the heart of indie wonders My Bloody Valentine. The latter takes his place on a sofa at the back of the stage, long legs splayed beneath a shabby standard lamp as Smith takes her place at the microphone.

The extended nautical metaphor for Mapplethorpe's slow death plays out against a film backdrop (by Jem Cohen) of gentle waves, scudding clouds and a time-lapse seascape.

Shields, surrounded by effects pedals, rings great sheets of sound from expensive-looking electric guitars beneath and, occasionally, above (the sound in the QEH really is bad) Smith's declamations as we move around an imaginary ship. It becomes quite mesmerising at times, Shields's characteristic bending notes making you feel like the room is moving out of shape. The pair finish up side by side on the sofa as the sound dies away, heads down, lank hair over their eyes, Smith grinning madly. When they depart hand in hand, they look for all the world like mother and son.

For variety and star appeal, Stand Bravely Brothers, Smith's tribute evening to Bertolt Brecht, is the midweek highpoint. Backed by the London Sinfonietta (including James Crabb on accordion, who does a brilliant solo turn on 'Solomon Song') under James Holmes, the cavalcade of faces (and voices) runs from the diminutive, shouty Carla Bozulich ('The Ballad of the Lily of Hell') to a wonderfully maudlin, embittered Fiona Shaw on 'Song of the German Mother', from Tilda Swinton's fine reading to Martha Wainwright's great wail of a 'Sailor's Tango'. It's a treat to see Sparks's Russell Mael glaring over his shoulder from the piano, brother Ron's voice still strong and able to reach a high falsetto for 'Mandalay Song', while the Finn brothers' casting of themselves as brutish British squaddies in their adaptation of 'Cannon Song' is darkly hilarious. There is a lovely trio of numbers from the Tiger Lillies; Martyn Jacques's crazed falsetto on 'Ballad of Sexual Dependency' draws a big hoot from the crowd. And Antony is intriguing - distressing, even - with 'Surabaya Jonny'.

The biggest cheer of the night goes out to Marc Almond, back on stage after his terrible accident and looking on very good form. He's brilliantly stagey on 'Bilbao Song', not so much camp as honest, and ever so English. His arrival was treated to a standing ovation; the long high note with which he closes 'What Keeps Mankind Alive' is greeted with a huge roar.

And if Patti Smith fluffs her lines and notes on the two numbers she tackles, you forgive her. You still feel like saying, Thanks, that was a great idea, an inspired, inspiring evening.

[quote:4d2a104b83]Meltdown: Patti Smith'S Horses, Royal Festival Hall, London
The power and the passion
By Tim Cooper
Published: 27 June 2005
Patti Smith is standing alone on the stage reciting the poem that describes her teenage dream to escape a blue-collar production line ("Inspecting pipe, 40 hours, $36 a week") and go to New York City to express herself as an artist.

"I'm gonna get out of here, I'm gonna be somebody, I'm gonna get on that train go to New York City, I'm gonna be so bad, I'm gonna be a big star. And I will never return - no, never return - to burn out in this Piss Factory."

Thank goodness she kept her promise. Thirty years ago, as the penniless poet was recording her debut album Horses, Britain was in a state of seemingly terminal torpor. Economically, rampant inflation had forced a change of prime minister and employment prospects for young people were bleak. Musically, things were even bleaker.

Brotherhood of Man and The Wurzels topped the singles chart; Demis Roussos and John Denver were among the best-selling album "artists". Then, one night in May 1976, everything changed. Among the usual staid line-up of that week's Old Grey Whistle Test was a scruffy urchin-woman from New York with the soul of Rimbaud and the spirit of Jim Morrison. Patti Smith was like nothing we'd seen before.

After a spellbinding de(con)struction of the Hendrix classic "Hey Joe", she launched into a hallucinatory stream-of-consciousness monologue called Land that began with a sort of male rape scene and led us through images of horses, long-forgotten dance crazes, murder and, if memory serves, references to the newly defrocked Liberal leader Jeremy Thorpe, while her band created an hallucinatory crescendo of white noise around her. It was an almost religious experience and in that single, transcendent, 10-minute spell, I was converted.

Later that night, still stunned by what I'd seen and wondering whether to throw out all my old records, my friend Ben and I had a late-night snack at the Hard Rock Café. In those days, you didn't expect to see rock stars unless you had a private jet or were staying in a five-star hotel. But who should be in there but Patti Smith and her band. Small-talk was exchanged and tickets were offered for the following night's concert at the Roundhouse, a show that could genuinely claim to be the birth of punk in Britain, even if no one had coined the phrase yet.

A month later The Ramones would arrive and The Sex Pistols began a residency at the 100 Club. The Clash and The Damned were still in rehearsal rooms, waiting to make their debuts. Patti Smith started it all.

Thirty years later, the power and passion of Smith's landmark debut album Horses remains undimmed as she marks its 30th anniversary with a first performance of the entire album. As Smith puts it in the programme for Meltdown: "We are still seeking to serve, communicate and inspire." She does all three. Dressed as in Robert Mapplethorpe's iconic cover photo - man's black suit jacket, outsize white shirt, skinny black tie, ripped black jeans and boxer boots - Smith looks tiny and frail beneath her shaggy mane of now-greying hair.

But at 58, her passionate belief in the redemptive power of rock 'n' roll shines through from the spine-tingling moment she recites the words that first introduced her: "Jesus died for somebody's sins, but not mine." The audience remains awestruck as Smith, backed by original guitarist Lenny Kaye and drummer Jay Dee Daugherty, bassist/ pianist Tony Shanahan, and a subdued Tom Verlaine embellishing from a stool at the back, takes us on an hour-long trip that fulfils her promise to "infuse the innocence that was there at the inception [of Horses] with 30 years of experience."

Improvising randomly, injecting her songs with love, tenderness, passion and fury, Smith's restless spirit of invention and sheer passion for her art ensured this was more, far more, than mere nostalgia. It was, as it always was, sheer transcendence. [/quote:4d2a104b83]

Eilen olin kuuntelemassa Patti Smithin runoja Cooper Unionin The Great Hallissa. Se on kai joku vanha mesta, missa ovat puhelleet Abe Lincoln ja joitain muita tyyppei. Patti laulo pari biisia akustisena ja puheli mukavia. Runoili uusia ja vanhoja tekstejaan. Oli pakko ostaa se uusi kirja, kun oli mahdollisuus saada signeeraus siihen. Ihan tajuton 90 minuuttia Pattin seurassa, ja ihan ilmaiseksi viela! Oli ihan hassuu kyl, kun se vitsaili ja oli herkkana...

Jossain vaiheessa pitäis hankkia vielä tuo Horsesin 30-v. juhlapainos, vaikka omistakin kyseisen levyn jo vinyylinä ja normi-cd:nä. Ehkä voisi yrittää olla fiksu ja ostaa Easter.

Patti Smith esiintyy akustisesti tänä kesänä Ruotsissa. Siellä on kiva pienehkö festivaali, jossa on muitakin todella hyviä ja kiinnostavia esiintyjiä. Laidasta laitaan kaikkea hyvää.
