Robin Trower at the Fillmore SF 07-08-09
Originally uploaded by SonomaPicMan Thank you, SonomaPicMan for providing a glimpse of greatness. Robin Leonard Trower (born 9 March 1945, Catford, South East London, England) is an English rock guitarist who achieved success with Procol Harum during the 1960s, and then again as the leader of his own power trio.Trower grew up in the seaside resort of Southend-on-Sea, Essex, England.In 1962, Trower formed a group that came to be known as The Paramounts, later including fellow Southend High School pupil Gary Brooker. The Paramounts disbanded in 1966 to pursue individual projects. Trower then joined Brooker’s new band Procol Harum in 1967, with whom he remained until 1972. After going solo in 1973 (replaced in Procol Harum by Dave Ball), he found the individual identity and style that have brought him acclaim to this day.

Roy Buchanan DVD cover by Noë the G and John Peden
Roy Buchanan DVD cover by Noë the G and John Peden Originally uploaded by Doctor Noe PS, we finally put up our “sneak-peek trailer version” of highlights for BlipTv and YouTube. Remember, this is a teaser, containing a fraction of the original footage on the DVD it is meant to promote. To get the full-scope, full-sound, complete experience, buy the DVD! Here’s how we look on BlipTv: And here’s the “Telly Talk Teaser” on YouTube: We wanted to test the waters to see if there would be a demand for a similar kind of musician-with-guitar talk and demo in a Guitar Galaxy series with some of our old friends … Billy Gibbons, Steve Stevens, Steve Vai, Joe Satch, Yngwie, Eddie Van H. (my kid goes to school with Wolfie) and Keef (I interviewed him last summer — see this:) . … JC-017 Photo Credit: Jacob Cohl Keith Richards (left) and director Martin Scorsese (right) backstage at the Beacon Theater while filming the Rolling Stones concert film “Shine A Light.” Paramount Classics in Association with Concert Productions International and Shangri-La Entertainment Presents A Martin Scorsese Picture “Shine a Light” starring Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood. The film is directed by Martin Scorsese. The producers are Victoria Pearman, Michael Cohl, Zane Weiner and Steve Bing. The executive producers are Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood. This film has been rated PG-13 for brief strong language, drug references and smoking. © 2008 by RST Concerts, Inc. All Rights Reserved. From my interview with Keith: Keith Richards is also a major fan of Scorsese’s and says he’s studied “every one of his movies. Some of them I know most of the dialogue,” he says. “All I heard was that Marty might be shooting the Stones, and I said, ‘Yeah!’ Given the opportunity to get a Stones show shot by a master, who’s going to say no?” Richards and the Stones have been no strangers to the cinematic treatment by film masters. Of the more than 18 documentaries that have been made about them, “Shine A Light” is one of more than half a dozen helmed by an “auteur.” There was 1968’s Jean-Luc Godard activist-arriviste take on the band, “Sympathy for the Devil: One Plus One”; Robert Frank’s very-limited release (it was shown publicly perhaps three times) documentary about their debauched life on the road, “Cocksucker Blues”; Peter Whitehead’s 1966 art-scene film “Charlie is My Darling”; The Maysles Brothers’ “Gimme Shelter”; and Hal Ashby’s “Let’s Spend the Night Together.” Film scholar that he is, Richards says “Don’t forget ‘Hail! Hail! Rock ’n’ Roll,’” Taylor Hackford’s documentary about a legendary Chuck Berry concert, in which Richards appeared and also co-produced. “To me, ‘Shine A Light’ is on a par with that film. It’s different because it’s a Stones show but it’s a very superior rock ’n roll film.” And why was that one so important to him as a performer and as an artist? “Actually, to me,” says Richards, “what was really intriguing was getting Marty’s take on it, and his vision. To me, the thing was that Martin Scorsese wanted to do something, and I thought, well, he must have something in mind that is beyond the usual sort of video scan. So I really wanted to find out what Marty wanted.” Who would have guessed that beneath the guise of the ultimate rock ‘n roll outlaw beat the heart of a cinematheque-denizen film scholar who wanted nothing more than to please a master auteur? “When you’re actually up there doing the work, you really pass all of that onto the director so that in a way, you just do what you do and try to do it as well as you can, and at the end you see whether you did it or not and then you stop to see – ahh! his vision of it,” observes Richards. “As it slowly unfolded with “Shine A Light” – Marty’s great use of old footage and live footage, for instance, had a great feel about it. It slowly dawns on you as you’re watching it. Otherwise, you have no idea. You can’t climb inside of somebody else’s brain.” At this point in the conversation, Keith says, “Lord knows, there’s been people trying to get into my brain, but that was a necessity,” referring to his own brain salad surgery. From the Production Notes for the movie “Shine A Light” Noe Gold, aka Noe the G is featured for his interviews with Mick and Keith in the Mahalo Daily show’s report on the Martin Scorsese Rolling Stones movie “Shine a Light,” which opens stateside April 4, 2008. Check out the episode here . P.S.

Stolen Dreams films on mtvU! My son Dylan — and some of his classmates — appeared in a short film, a Public Service piece, over the summer that was entered in a competition on the web. The film is called “Sneeze” and it offers a glimpse at the rapid and pervasive ways in which the flu virus is passed on and contracted from one unsuspecting stranger to another throughout a city. Here’s a link to it — “Sneeze” . Here’s a more current link to it … As it was featured today (10-28-08) on mtvU: Stolen Dreams – Sneeze – by Xavier Tatarkiewicz – Best Film on Campus My son Dylan Z. Gold stars as the kid at the birthday party for his grandma. The Stolen Dreams films can now be seen on mtvU’s website! Stolen Dreams films on mtvU! The Best Film On Campus site, presented by mtvU, celebrates and awards the creativity of student films. The Stolen Dreams films have their own festival homepage, and each Stolen Dreams director has a profile. The link is gone but you can see it on the aforementioned MTV site . The films are by filmmakers from UCLA. The videos are on YouTube too — just search for “stolen dreams.” The Stolen Dreams films are stimulating, provocative, and something worth sharing and talking about with others. A voting feature was part of the original site. Instead, all 8 films were judged by a panel of industry professionals who narrowed the field to four semi-finalists. A separate judging panel of industry leaders then selected the Grand Prize winner. This judging process took place on Thursday, October 23rd. Please watch the films and take a moment now to share your thoughts on the health care and financial security crisis in America by using the comments feature that is positioned on individual film pages.

Keith Richards photo at Fender Exhibit: Roy Buchanan
Keith Richards photo by John Peden Fender Exhibit: Roy Buchanan’s Telecaster 3-22-08 Originally uploaded by Doctor Noe Fender Exhibit: Roy Buchanan’s Telecaster 3-22-08 Keith Richards photo by John Peden A blow-up of John Peden’s photo of Keith for the cover of Guitar World magazine bends his B-string over a massive array of Telecaster firepower including Roy Buchanan’s “Nancy,” a prime example of the stripped-down, bare bones instrument that is so expressive in the hands of a master like Roy. Richard Smith, author of “Fender – the sound heard around the world” now works for the Fullerton Museum Center 301 N. Pomona Ave, Fullerton Ca. 92832 (714) 738-6545. He always has an exhibit on Fender but for 2008-10 there is a new exhibit on the Telecaster. The gala opening of the exhibit, entitled “Solid Design: Leo Fender’s Telecaster” was March 22, 2008 7-10 p.m., and the exhibit will run through Fall, 2010. From the exhibit catalog: “In early 1949 Leo Fender started seriously designing a standard guitar model for his Fine Line of Fender Electric Instruments. At first the guitar was called the Esquire, then the Broadcaster and finally the Telecaster. Sixty years later it is one of the most popular guitars in the world, an instrument built for working men and women musicians who defined the blues, country and pop styles. There’s a whole set of photos from the Tele exhibit here. Featured on a monitor throughout the night was the documentary by Noe Gold and John Peden, “Roy Buchanan Telly Talk.” A full-on “director’s cut” documentary version of “Telly Talk” is in the works. Watch this space for news of further developments: see the “About my DVD” section to the right. And speaking of Keef … my interview with him and Mick Jagger are featured here: daily.mahalo.com/2008/04/04/md093-shine-a-light-exclusive… Noe Gold, aka Noe the G is featured for his interviews with Mick and Keith in the Mahalo Daily show’s report on the Martin Scorsese Rolling Stones movie “Shine a Light,” which opens stateside April 4, 2008.

Mahalo Daily Interviews with Mick Jagger and Keith Richards by Noe Gold for the “Shine A Light” Production Notes Noe Gold, aka Noe the G is featured for his interviews with Mick and Keith in the Mahalo Daily show’s report on the Martin Scorsese Rolling Stones movie “Shine a Light,” which opens stateside April 4, 2008.

In the episode, we are featuring interviews with Mick and Keith that were taken for the Production Notes (with express permission from Paramount). Mahalo Daily, ( http://daily.mahalo.com/ ) ranks consistently in the top five podcasts on iTunes.

Michael Gallagher http://daily.mahalo.com/ The piece that mahalo.com ’s producer Michael is talking about was designed to be a kind of companion piece to the “About the Film” section on Paramount’s http://www.shinealightmovie.com/main.html website. If you navigate over there, besides art work, clips and other goodies, you may find the text for the complete Production Notes for the movie. It was supposed to be a kind of behind-the-scenes of the process of putting together an elaborate Production Notes package, which this one in particular of all the many Notes packages I worked on, turned out to be. It’s that process — and the elaborate process of making the movie itself that the show explores. I’ll be posting some more from the interviews I did with the filmmakers to put together this Production Notes package right on my blog, I’ve just now seen the movie for the fourth time, and it keeps getting better and better. Some of the features Lon Harris and I discussed in the interview for the show: Keith’s rapport with Marty, Mick’s auteurship of the concert, Buddy Guy’s performance and that of Jack White.
