Don Howland, The Bassholes

Thanx Don.

ps: At first there were the legendary Gibson Bros. in Ohio in the mid-80s. They played a unique mix of American roots music: blues, gospel, hill- and rockabilly with punk attitude. After split of the Gibsons the Bassholes were founded in 1992 by a “Gibson”, Don Howland (guitar) and Bim Thomas (aka Obnox, drums). But now on drums: James Owen (Burning Bus, Doom Ribbons, Wooden Tit) & keyboard: Kim Roney (The Family Swaggards, Rip & Run).

„Music has been the only constant thing in my life.”

Stomping Nick Jackman is a one-man-band from Lyttelton (Delaney Davidson also from there), New Zealand, who fuses primitive garage punk with rhythm and blues, boogie-woogie and Appalachian folk. The latter merges the Black, English, Irish and Scotch music traditions with the coal miners’ joy, sorrow and anger. And what is boogie-woogie? The phrase maybe comes from Bantu term „Mbuki Mvuki”. Mbuki: „to take off in flight”; Mvuki: „to dance wildly, as if to shake off one’s clothes”.

„I have tried to get a band like the Blues Grenade together with other people in the past but found it hard to find people who could understand the primitive blues aesthetic.” So he sings and plays harmonica, guitar and drums all at the same time, the old school way, without the aid of loop pedals, backing tracks, or any of those other fancy tricks. „The one-man-bands Joe Hill Louis and Doctor Ross are big influences – my act is based on these two artists.” But „The Gun Club would have had the biggest influence on me. Jeffrey Lee Pierce is the prophet. ”

In Europe in Cognac Blues Festival, France

RNR666 ONE MAN BAND BROADCAST

Hi dear there, here is the RNR666 RADIO SHOW. The Second One Man Band Broadcast is the first rnr666 radio show which has been edited in the United Kingdom. (Our first one man band show is officially lost.)

Lavór (Basin) has asked me to write Hungarian too. So szóval remélem te ándersztend engem. But what is One Man Band, magyarul: ván men bend?

„Itt látható a nagyhírű bűvész!
A lábával karikázik,
A kezével citerázik,
Az orrával orgonázik,
A fülével figurázik,
A szemével gurgulázik,
A szájával vacsorázik!”

from Vásár (Fair) poem by Weöres Sándor. Roughly in English

Here is the famous magician!
Plays with wheels by his foot,
Plays zither by his hands,
And organ with his nose,
Makes figures by his ears,
Gurgles with his eyes,
And eats with his mouth!

I think you see, but for example here is O Lendário Chucrobillyman and His Trash Tropical One Man Band Orquestra

in BUDAPEST at RNR666 PARTY on 28 JAN

A new photo album with 134 historic images at deluxe size by Dust to Digital. A book with lots of found images. Among those aren’t photos of Bill Hayley, Elvis Presley or any usual person, but there’re ordinary, nameless men, women, and children. Most of the people in the photos wouldn’t have heard of rock’n’roll, much less thought of themselves as rock’n’roll progenitors. Instead, the images capture the gangly musicians, the giddy dancers, and the drunken antics found in smalltown America from the 1930s to the 1960s and beyond. All the musical genres that influenced what we know of as “rock” are represented: everything from jump blues and gospel to boogie woogie and Western swing.

The author, Jim Linderman says: “We have this notion that rock’n’roll started in Memphis in 1955, and it really didn’t. Bob Wills was playing in the ’30s and ’40s in Oklahoma, and Chuck Berry modeled Maybellene on a Bob Wills song. The roots of rock go back a lot further than we realize. It came from the church, from vaudeville, from the music played in after-hours clubs, from juke joints. The whole point was pretty much to get together, get drunk, and get laid. That’s the real history of rock ’n’ roll.”

As Muddy Waters said, “The blues had a baby and they called it it Rock and Roll.”

BLACK MAGIC SIX – blues punk from Finland
at RNR666 Party in BUDAPEST > MARCH 26

Egyik bevallásuk szerint zenéjükre három fogalom nyomja rá a bélyegét: Sátán, Punk, Venom. Máshol viszont így nyilatkoznak: „Mi bluest játszunk. Robert Johnson a 61-es és a 49-es országút kereszteződésénél Clarksdaleben kötötte meg a maga alkuját az ördöggel. Mi a Fleminginkatu és a Vaasankatu sarkán Helsinkiben. Robert ligájába tartozunk.” Robert Johnson a legnagyobb hatású blues gitáros, aki valaha élt.

A BM6 hangzásában egyesek szerint a legendás bluesman, Howlin’ Wolf, és a black metal stílus alapítója, a Venom ötvöződik. Mások Iggy Pop zenekarához, a Stoogeshoz, a Dead Kennedyshez vagy az AC/DC-hez hasonlítják őket.

Some people say „It’s Howlin’ Wolf with Venom”, others say „just like The Stooges, Dead Kennedys or AC/DC”

„We’re just playing blues. Robert Johnson sold his soul to the devil at the cross of road 61 and 45 in Clarksdale. We have contracted with him at the corner of Fleminginkatu and Vaasankatu in Helsinki. We’re in Robert’s league.” As guitarist Robert Johnson made the biggest impression on blues music.
