Blues Magoos - iqembu elathatha igagasi ledwala lasegaraji elalithuthuka ekuqaleni kwawo-60s ekhulwini lama-XNUMX. Yakhiwa eBronx (eNew York, eU.SA).
Blues Magoos abazange “bazuze ifa” emlandweni wokuthuthukiswa komculo womhlaba, njengasezwekazini labo noma abanye ozakwabo baphesheya kwezilwandle. Ngaleso sikhathi, i-Blues Magoos ingaziqhenya ngezimpumelelo ezinjengokuthula komculo cishe kwekhulunyaka. Iqembu likhiphe i-albhamu emangazayo noma lahlela uhambo ukuze lisekele.
I-biography yabafana ibonisa umlando othakazelisayo phakathi kobudlelwane obuhlangene, kanye nokukhishwa kwama-albhamu angu-6 ubude obugcwele. Bonke baklonyeliswe ngokukhishwa kabusha okuphelele (okunwetshiwe) - okungeke kubonise isimo sengqondo sokunaka se-showbiz kumaqhawe ezinsuku ezedlule.
I-Rock Blues Magoos evela emagaraji
I-psychedelic ye-60s yayihambahamba emadolobheni ase-US ngamandla amakhulu. Ngo-1964, ama-Byrds azalwa. I-MC5 kanye no-Lynyrd Skynyrd basanda kuqala ukungena kwabo ngokunqoba emaphasishi omculo nama-nooks. Phesheya kwezilwandle, i-The Who and The Troggs iyahlangana, kuyilapho eBronx, abafana abambalwa banquma ukusebenzisana ngaphansi kwegama elithi The Trenchcoats:
- Emil "Pippi (Castro)" Tilhem - isiginci kanye nemisebenzi vocal;
- UDennis LePauw - izingxenye zesiginci;
- URalph Scala - isitho kanye namazwi engeziwe;
- URon Gilbert - obhekele i-bass;
- U-John Finnegan uhlala phansi kukhithi yezigubhu.
Leli qembu linamakhonsathi emaqenjini ahlukene eGreenwich Village, okuyindawo eseLower Manhattan. Phakathi neminyaka emi-2, abaculi bangochwepheshe bezinsimbi. Badlala amakhava futhi bazama ukubhala ezabo izinto kwaze kwaba ngu-1966.
Igama elisha leqembu
Ngawo lowo nyaka, ngokungena emithonjeni yegagasi le-psychedelic, noma kunalokho isiqondiso salo esingaphansi komhlaba, esasishaya ngamandla aphelele, leli qembu lashintsha igama lalo laba yi-ornate "Bloos Magoos".
Igama leqembu lingahunyushwa ngokukhululekile njengelidabukisayo (kusuka kwesiNgisi elithi "blues" - blues, sadness) Magi (kusuka kweSpanishi "magos"). Igama libe seliguqulwa libe yi-"Blues Magoos" egayeka kakhulu emphakathini okhuluma isiNgisi. Futhi ihlinzekwa ngesiqalo esibalulekile esithi “The” - bathi, hhayi nje noma iyiphi... kodwa eqondile kakhulu.
Ukuqoshwa kokuqala kwe-Blues Magoos nezinguquko zohlelo
Ngesikhathi kushintshwa igama, uFinnegan noLePeau base beshiyile ohlwini, izindawo zabo zithathwe uJeff Ducking (izigubhu) noMike Esposito (isiginci). Ukwakheka okungenhla kungamakwa “njengegolide” eqenjini. Phela, nguye owayedalelwe ukuklama ama-classics omsebenzi weqembu.
Okokuqala, abafana bathola ukwesekwa kwelebula le-Verve. Ukhiphe ingoma yakhe yokuqala enobude obugcwele emphakathini ngengoma yokuqala ethi “So I’m Wrong and You Are Right” kanye nethi B-side (uhlangothi lwesibili lwerekhodi) “The People Had No Faces”.
I-albhamu yokuqala "Psychedelic Lollipop"
Indaba ayizange idonse ukunaka komphakathi "oqhubekayo", kodwa iqembu alizange liyeke ukusebenza ngokwalo. Ekupheleni kuka-1966, wathola inkontileka ye-Mercury enezibopho ezigcwele zokukhulula i-LP yobude obugcwele. I-albhamu yokuqala, ebizwa ngokuthi "Psychedelic Lollipop", iyathakazelisa ngoba omunye wabokuqala ukubeka igama elithi "psychedelic" esihlokweni se-albhamu. Ngo-1967, irekhodi lokuqala leqembu lathola ukuqashelwa okuncane:
- No. 21 eshadini lama-albhamu e-Pop ase-US;
- Indawo yesi-5 yengoma eyodwa ethi "(We Ain't Got) Nothin' Yet";
- inombolo 71 kuphela yethi "One By One".
"Izimpumelelo" ezinjalo azizange ziyidambise nhlobo intshiseko yabaculi, futhi eminyakeni eyalandela bakhipha ngenkuthalo ama-albhamu agcwele ubude. Abafana balandela i-vector enikeziwe futhi bathuthukisa ngempumelelo ukusebenza kwabo nezindlela zokuqopha. Imizamo yaba yimpumelelo, kwathi i-1967 yavumela iqembu ukuthi livakashele e-United States kanye nozakwabo baphesheya kwezilwandle i-The Who and Herman's Hermits.
Kuze kube ngu-1968, leli qembu likhiphe izingoma ezingashadile futhi ubude obugcwele busebenza ngempumelelo ehlukahlukene - "Electric Comic Book" (1967), "Basic Blues Magoos" (1968). Izingoma ezihlukene kanye nama-albhamu ngokwawo ahlulekile ukuthakazelisa ngokwanele umphakathi.
Amalebula akhishwayo abengafuni ngempela ukuqhubeka nokubambisana neqembu. Kuze kwafika lapho izinkampani ezishicilelayo zingakunaki nhlobo ukwesekwa kwabaculi ngokukhipha izingoma ezingashadile nezinyuswayo. Lokhu kuhlanganisa kwabaphazamisa ngokuphelele abaculi, banquma ukuhlakazeka. Kodwa-ke, njengoba kuwumkhuba ebhizinisini lomculo, izinkontileka ezibophezelayo nezinkampani zokuqopha zaphoqa iyunithi yokudala i-The Blues Magoos ukuthi ikhiphe okubalulekile.
UBlues Magoos uyahlukana
Abaphathi beqembu (okumangazayo) baphikelele ekusebenzeni ngezingoma ezintsha. Kodwa oyedwa kuphela wabasunguli, uPeppy Castro, wanquma ukuqhubeka nendlela yakhe yomculo. Ngakho, ngo-1969, ukwakheka okucishe kwabuyekezwa ngokuphelele kwahlanganiswa:
- U-Emil Tilhelm - amazwi neziginci;
- Roger Eaton – bass guitar;
- U-Eric Kaz uthatha amakhibhodi;
- UJohn Leillo uthatha izintambo zokushaywa;
- U-Richie Diacon uthatha izigubhu.
Kodwa-ke, ngaphambi kokuba uhlelo luguqulwe, kwaba khona ukushintshwa okwanele futhi abaculi abafana no-Ted Manda no-Joey Stack badlala eqenjini. Kodwa lokhu akuzange kusindise iqembu “ekuwohlokeni”.
Ngemva kokuxoxa ngezinto ezihlukahlukene kanye namalungu ashintshayo, leli qembu lagcina likhiqize i-albhamu ka-1969 ethi “Ungalokothi Ubuyele EGeorgia.” Futhi kakade ngo-1970 wethula "Gulf Coast Bound" emphakathini. Okuqukethwe kwashaywa indiva, futhi ithimba elivuselelwe lawa ngokuphelele.
ukuzalwa kabusha
Ngo-2008, abahlanganyeli "imibuthano" emibili yokuqala yeqembu - "Pippi", i-Scala ne-Ducking - banquma ukuthintitha uthuli ezinsimbini zabo. Abafana bamema uMichael Zilberto njengomdlali wesiginci kanye noPeter Coleman kumabhesi ukubamba amakhonsathi amaningana ezweni lakubo. Ngonyaka olandelayo, i-The Blues Magoos yaya eYurophu, lapho yenza khona amakhonsathi ambalwa eSpain. Kubandakanya njengengxenye yomkhosi wendawo wePurple Weekend.
Ngo-2014, ibhendi evuselelwe yase iqoqe izinto ze-albhamu yonke. Yayibizwa ngokuthi "Psychedelic Resurrection". Abaphathi, mayelana "nokuphromotha," bahlasele indawo ye-inthanethi futhi bavula ikhasi elisemthethweni ku-Facebook. Unyaka owalandela wawuhlelelwe uhambo lonke lokweseka ukukhishwa kwakamuva.
Kuze kube manje, ikhathalogi "yakudala" yebhendi iphinde yakhishwa izinkampani ezimbalwa ezinhlelweni ezinwetshiwe ezinezengezo namabhonasi. Izinto zabuyiselwa, ibhendi yazwakala kangcono. Abahlanganyeli abahlanu bayakujabulela ukwabelana ngolwazi ngezimpilo zabo emakhasini omphakathi asemthethweni ku-inthanethi. Baze bajabulise izilaleli ngamalungiselelo ayivelakancane kodwa athakazelisayo. Ubani owaziyo, mhlawumbe sekuyisikhathi sokukhulula ezinye izinto esikhundleni sokulinda iminyaka engamashumi amahlanu?
