SKIP JENSEN GROUP
Az, hogy elhívjuk Skip Jensen-t (született Serge Gendron) koncertezni, azóta vágya az RNR666-nak, amióta az RNR666 koncert szervezéssel is foglalkozik, ennek lassan tíz éve. Skip Jensen január 29.-én három tagú zenekarával, a Skip Jensen Group-pal lép fel a Budapesten. Tavaly januárban adták ki első nagylemezüket, majd egy kislemezt, és készítettek egy videóklipet:
Saját meghatározásuk zenéjükre igen találó: Supersonic Rock’n’Roll. Bluesból, észak-amerikai folkból és persze jófajta elszabadult rock’n’roll-ból összegyúrt muzsika. Őszinte, egyszerű és tiszta, hasonlóan mint grafikai munkái, képregényei. Aki szereti az Oblivianst, a Bassholes-t vagy a The Mojomatics-et ezzel a koncerttel nem nyúlhat mellé. Ki is ő, honnan indult? Kicsit bővebben. Tovább / Read more »

SKIP JENSEN GROUP (Can)
We want to organize SKIP JENSEN for 10 years, since from the established of RNR666. And the dream comes true now. Born as Serge Gendron and comes from Montreal, Canada. The city was one of the most important places of underground rock’n’roll in the first decade of the XXI. century. King Khan also comes from this scene. Its special vigorous sound is represented by the album Symphatetic Sounds of Montreal. Two bands of Skip Jensen appeared on it, Scat Rag Boosters and The Stack O’Leas. After the break-ups he continued his music career as a classic one-man-band under the name of Skip Jensen & His Shakin Feet, meanwhile he was the drummer of Demon’s Claw for 2,5 years. Later his one-mand-band became a duo with Seb Normal (The Feeling of Love, Normals, Delacave etc.) from France. Finally it has became a trio. They have made an album, a single and a video last year:
The style is self-described as Supersonic Rock’n’Roll. It’s spiced with blues and other American folk elements. For the fans of Oblivians, Bassholes, Mojomatics. Skip Jensen also a fine graphic artist

Adventures of the Annoying Lil French Girl in New York
Not enough people know Anni Rossi, the singer/ songwriter/ violonist. She plays with her instrument like you’d play the guitar, indeed, she isn’t scared to strum the string, making it a perfect tool for RNR.
Meet with Anni
a place (I won’t name for some personal reason) in Williamsburg
On Friday night, following an evening of drinking cheap beer with colleagues, I joined my new roommate, Andy, a New-Yorker and member of an anarchist organization called The Base. I knew that he knew the place where I needed to be. It was his friend’s birthday, and their musician friends were playing for her. Those kinds of friends are very precious, between tours, they will certainly animate your greatest parties.
That said, the gigs were very pleasant. First line, a guitarist and a drummer nostalgic of Kurt , second, a band from the past future, I mean like the people during the eighties pretending to be from the future. ( I’m not sure if you know what I mean, I’m stoned.) Anyway, those guys freaked me out, they were really good, but I just couldn’t take it, it took me back to … a night in Budapest, it was November, We were waiting for the bus in Nyugati station, I was wearing somebody else’s hat and he loved it… I was mentally preparing for the long tricky way back home (since I live in the extremities of Bushwick, just on the border with Bedstuy…) when I heard the name of Anni Rossi, which surprised me for the reason I mentioned before. So I asked around: what about Annie? She’s here? Really??? Where? (Turned out she was there all the time.) Is she going to perform? She’s great, isn’t she? I was, let’s say, suddenly a little overwhelmed and turned straight back to shake her hand: Are you Anni Rossi? Yes, and what’s your name? Line. Line who? Line ** ******. Curious and nice, she seemed unfamiliar with this kind of devotion, yes because I confessed my passion for one of her song, it was playing in my headphones in Thailand, Scotland, and on various trips here and there.
I asked her insistingly to play it, she said she’d try as she didn’t bring her violon (maybe she was upset with it), that night she preferred an electric banjo, accompaigned by the classic bass and drum combo. The concert was like a Rob, Ryan and Anni family reunion. Her belly button proudly displayed, she performed with a nonchalant attitude and voice like a cool Cold War Kid. Sipping her whiskey in between songs, she took it slow, inspiring air, expiring it, creating beautifully contained bluesy waves.
And finally the way back home wasn’t that bad at all, walking with magical bubbles in my head. Anni Rossi is just Loveli, check it out!

Bushwick
is located in the center of Brooklyn, where I live. It is full of brownish little 2 storey houses with flat rooftops and old factories transformed into lofts. It wasn’t such a nice neighbourhood (criiiiime) a couple of years ago, but as the rental price is cheaper than in other shiny and trendy places such as Williamsburg (headquarter of the hipster community), a lot of young and poor artists/ professionals like me are living in there. In my street seems to live many repented, retired gangsters, so it’s kind of quiet, apart from loud conversations and tooting at 2 am.
The mentioned neighbouring Bed-Stuy (Bedford-Stuyvesant) is the land of heavyweight rappers and boxers. For example Mike Tyson, Ol’ Dirty Bastard, but the chess world champion, Bobby Fischer also lived here.

One year in penitentiary and bad conduct discharge was the sentence of Navy’s Court Martial in the fraudulent enlistment case of 15 years old Andre Williams, who was born in 1936, Alabama. „Kiss-my-ass-mother-fuckers!” was his response. Right after his discharge he went to Detroit with 25 dollars in his pocket. The day of the coming he entered for a talent show, afternoon wrote a song and won. His first hit was Bacon Fat in 1956 on Fortune Records
Then he worked with Motown Records as a producer too. Wrote and recorded songs together with Stevie Wonder, The Contours, Ike & Tina Turner and more, and also wrote some songs for Parliament and Funkadelic. In the 80s he became a homeless because his hard r’n’b lifestyle. He came back with a rap album in 1990. Since he has made amazing albums in various style: garage rock, blues, country, funk and soul. These were released such labels as In The Red, Bloodshot or Norton Records.
One of his early songs, Jailhouse Blues from 1958 has been covered by Obnox (aka Bim Thomes, drummer of blues punk band Bassholes)
The new Obnox album Boogalou Red is coming this month on 12xU Records (US). Gospel trash

Those were certainly very comic acts when the two founders looked for mates, because the condition was: can play any kind of instrument is absolutely needless. – Do you feel like joining us? – But I can’t play any instruments. – Oh it’s great! We need such an incompetent man exactly like you to make good noisy punk rock music:
