Rogério Duprat – Brasil Ano 2000 (1969, Trilha Sonora Do Filme) (Gal Costa, Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso)

Rogério Duprat (7 February 1932 - 26 October 2006) was a Brazilian composer, arranger, conductor and musician.

He is primarily known for his fundamental influence over the Tropicalia movement. But, he also is a successful composer of over 40 movie soundtracks, having also arranged music for several artists.

In 1968, Duprat wrote the arrangements for Gilberto Gil's album "Gilberto Gil", when both Gil and Caetano Veloso were arrested. The album was an attempt to avoid violence against them, as they would be connected with the broader society. The vocals were recorded in prison, with the two playing their own accompaniment on the violão along with a metronome and the rest of the instruments added later, subverting the basics of production. Also, Duprat wrote the arrangements for the collective-album/Tropicalia-manifest "Tropicália ou Panis et Circensis". He is the one holding a chamber pot on the album's cover as if it were a tea cup, together with the major names of Tropicalia. In that same year, he was the artistic director of another Tropicalia act, the show Momento 68 (which toured Brazil and South America), and wrote all arrangements for Nara Leão's album "Nara Leão". In the same year, he won the Galo de Ouro trophy, presented at TV Globo's III FIC, for his arrangements on Caetano's "É Proibido Proibir"; and the André Kostelanetz Trophy, for his arrangements for Caminhante Noturno. Also in that year, Duprat was the musical director for the famous Tropicalia show Divino Maravilhoso, and toured Europe with the Os Mutantes. In 1969, he wrote the arrangements for Caetano's album "Caetano Veloso", and, in 1973, for "Araçá Azul".

This is his soundtrack for "Brasil Ano 2000" with the voices of Caetano Veloco, Gal Coast, Gilberto Gil and others.

Prince Far I - Long Life (1978)

Prince Far I made several fine albums for the Virgin label's Front Line imprint in the late '70s. That relationship eventually soured, leading him to record the scathing "Virgin" several years later; probably the angriest artist-to-label kiss-off since Lee "Scratch" Perry accused Island label head Chris Blackwell of vampirism and murder. But while the relationship continued, it resulted in some of Prince Far I's most powerful work. 

"Long Life" had its long-overdue CD reissue in 2002, a development that was especially welcome since none of its tracks had been included on the previous Front Line reissue compilations (Dubwise and Black Man Land). On these sessions, the rhythms are provided courtesy of a studio band made up of members of both Soul Syndicate (notably the killer bass-and-drums duo of Robbie Shakespeare and Sly Dunbar) and Roots Radics, and they are, without exception, as solid and heavy as a bag of boulders. 

Prince Far I himself is in top form, rebuking Babylon on "Black Star Liner Must Come" and calling his fellow Rastafarians to repentance and renewed spiritual effort on such exhortative classics as "Remember Jah Jah" and "Love One Another." Some bonus tracks would have been nice (this album clocks in at a measly 32 minutes), but no one who has been seduced by Prince Far I's gravelly chant is going to quibble; it's been a long 25 years of waiting for this reissue, and we're all just happy to have it.

"Right Way"
"Black Starliner Must Come"
"Praise Him With Psalms"

Hanns Dieter Hüsch - Das neue Programm (1981)

Hanns Dieter Hüsch (6 May 1925, in Moers – 6 December 2005, in Windeck-Werfen) was a German author, cabaret artist, actor, songwriter and radio commentator.

With a working life of more than 53 years on the German cabaret stage and 70 of his own programmes he was one of the most productive and successful representatives of literary cabaret in Germany in the 20th century.

From 1965 on, Hüsch released phonograph records with literary cabaret pieces, chansons and poems - he sold more than 50 albums until his death. In 1967 he joined the left-wing German student movement and performed in Berlin on Burg Waldeck. But some elements of the student movement did not like Hüsch's non-violent attitude. They heckled his performances from June 1968 until August 1969 and "it was just as if your comrades told you that you are not good enough for the fight and that you have to give it up", said Hüsch. He was disappointed and hurt by their actions against his art, decided not to perform in Germany for years, and moved to Switzerland.

"Das neue Programm" was released in 1981 and is a live recording from Cologne, March 1981.

Esther & Abi Ofarim – Ofarim Concert - Live 1969

Esther & Abi Ofarim were an Israeli musical duo active during the 1960s, consisting of husband and wife Abi Ofarim and Esther Ofarim. They enjoyed particular success in Germany. They had hits in Europe with their songs "One More Dance," "Morning of My Life," and "Cinderella Rockefella."

Esther Ofarim (b. Esther Zaied, 13 June 1941, Zafed, Israel) and Avraham Reichstadt (b. 5 October 1937, Zafed, Israel, d. 4 May 2018, Munich, Germany) were a husband-and-wife team who shot to fame in their homeland during the early 60s. With a keen eye for the international market, Esther had represented Switzerland in the 1963 Eurovision Song Contest while the duo extended their appeal on the Continent via concert performances and foreign language recordings. They had their first hit in Germany in 1966 with ‘Noch Einen Tanz’, and the following year enjoyed even bigger success with their version of the Bee Gees’ ‘Morning Of My Life’. An appearance on the high-rating Eamonn Andrews Show on UK television, in which Esther and Abi sang a novelty love duet, proved so popular that the song became an overnight smash. ‘Cinderella Rockefella’ (composed by Mason Williams) topped the UK charts for three weeks in early 1968 and although the duo seemed likely one-hit wonders they managed a successful Top 20 follow-up with ‘One More Dance’. The partnership subsequently broke up when their marriage was dissolved. Esther Ofarim maintained a low-key solo career in the following decades.

Ofarim Concert – Live 1969 is a live album by Esther & Abi Ofarim, recorded during the duo's 1969 European tour and released in the same year by Philips Records.

Etta James - Rocks The House (1964)

Though the studio albums Etta James made for Chess in the 1960s usually had the blues singer surrounded by lush production and string-heavy arrangements, this live date finds her performing with only a rhythm section, organist, guitarist, and tenor saxophonist. The singer seems to respond to both the stripped-down setting and the enthusiastic audience with noticeable abandon. In fact, James the classy balladeer, a role she sometimes plays on her studio albums, is nowhere to be found on this blazing set. 

The set is straight-edged blues and R&B, including covers of some hits of the day, like "Money (That's What I Want)" and Ray Charles' "What'd I Say." Jimmy Reed's "Baby What You Want Me to Do" (on which James does a growling, harmonica-imitating vocal solo) steps up the blues quotient. Etta James Rocks the House indeed.

Tracklist:

Something's Gotta Hold On Me 4:23
Baby, What You Want Me To Do 4:10
What I Say 3:07
Money 3:18
Seven Day Fool 4:25
Sweet Little Angel 4:10
Ooh Poo Pah Doo 4:15
Woke Up This Morning 4:10

Die Jeilen Träumer - Die Jeilen Träumer (1982, Trikont)

The political rock clown band "Ulrich Hundt und Schroeder" was found in 1975 and renamed shortly afterwards as "Schroeder Roadshow". They offered biting ironic and political texts as well as an eclectic musical style. The band attacked more or less everything, including themselves.

With their anarchistic slogans and subversiv statements, their great live shows and their sarcastic humor Schröder Roadshow were a very important part of the german polit rock subculture. Schroeder Roadshow was – besides Ton Steine Scherben – the german political rock band in the seventies and eighties of the last century.

In 1979 Gerd Köster became a member of the anarcho-rock-theater band. A year later, Frank Hocker joined Schroeder Roadshow. In the early eighties the band was one of the busiest live acts in Germany with up to 250 concerts a year. They released seven anarchistic polit-rock-albums with different line-ups and played at the WDR "Rockpalast" and BR "Rock aus dem Alabama". 

During a "Schroeder Roadshow" break in 1982, Gerd Köster and Frank Hocker founded the rock quartet "Die Jeilen Traumer".

"You'll never break me!" sings Gerd Köster - and you believe his credo. For the band, rock music is "still the best remedy for cold showers".
