All Music Is Welcome

http://www.onthisday.com/music/birthdays.php
I think I see 2 repeats in the b-days today on one of the webpages; that seems to happen from time to time so I may not post the artist a 2nd time. A discrepancy by only a few weeks.

Checking out some birthdays today in music history.

Alice Coltrane:

Discography is interesting to read on some artists: http://www.allmusic.com/artist/alice-coltrane-mn0000006143/discography

Daryl Dragon of the Captain and Tennille.

"Illuminations" is good, it kind of reminds me "Apocalypse" by Mahavishnu John Mclaughlin, at least in a rough general comparison.

I always enjoyed Red Zen too.

Of all things, our high school had in their magazine section, Downbeat magazine.  It gave me a clue as to whom one might try to listen to. It's still around, the last I knew. They had articles and readers polls on Weather Report and other bands.

Wayne Shorter of Weather Report had a birthday this past week. I'm not sure that was posted.

@TomSea
Welcome to the club! I became a regular Down Beat reader just in the school library.
And it's still alive and well . . .

More birthdays today include Richard Tucker, the Metropolitan Opera tenor---my maternal grandmother
played his recording of the Passover seder every year at our Passover seder, and also loved this
he recorded of the sacred commencement to Yom Kippur:

. . . Also today's birthdays include Clem Cattini, drummer for the Tornados . . .


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2pPgni-2B8

. . . and, since it's the birthday of Gladys Knight & the Pips's Edward Patten, here's what I still think is
the best record they ever cut, when their Motown producer Norman Whitfield got the same idea for
them that Jerry Wexler at Atlantic got for Aretha Franklin---Whitfield put them back in church. (If
there's another classic Motown chart hit that came this close to classic black storefront church music---
Motown recorded a lot of gospel in its earliest years, none of which made even a dent on the R&B
or pop charts---I haven't heard it yet.) And as much as I love Marvin Gaye's subsequent hit with
the song, this one beats his to a pulp:

I love all versions of "I Heard it Through the Grapevine," one of my all-time favorites. I have versions by Gladys Knight and the Pips, Marvin Gaye, and Creedance Clearwater Revival.
