Paul McCartney - Ever Present Past (New Single)

It's not very hard for one to not enjoy the work done by Paul McCartney. He continues to prove to the world (and to himself I would say) as one of the greatest modern songwriters. I'm not judging this entirely based on his lastest single - Ever Present Past. What intrigues me is his musicality - his ability of recreating new music and melodies that are NEVER a "commom place". There are certainly so many recent examples of bands that we could think of... but with 'Macca' is a little different... he never repeats himself.

"Ever Present Past" comes as tasty a fresh Mocha (no association here with the fact his new album will be released by Starbucks label with distribution by Universal Studios). Lots of keyboards layers with an upbeat tempo and melody. Very appropriate for this coming summer... The full album (Memory Almost Full) will come out on June 5th.

Captain - A great surprise for the weekend!

It always feels great when I can find a band that just hits me for their sound. That's the case with Captain. Hailing from UK, they have recently participated in the Mojo Magazine's Sgt Pepper's tribute CD covering "A Day In The Life".
What a great combination of vocals, keys and great melodies that don't get out of your mind. Do I need more? Well, I guess it's time to hit the sack now... That's it for tonight.

Happy Mother's Day!

Stone Gossard Demo '91 - aka the Gossman Project (early Ten demos)

This tape is the earliest evidence of Pearl Jam around. Mike McCready, Stone Gossard, and Jeff Ament recorded a set of instrumental demos during the Temple of the Dog sessions with Matt Cameron (then with Soundgarden) in 1990 with the intention to find a new drummer and vocalist for this musical project.
This tape would eventually find its way to Eddie Vedder via Jack Irons (ex-RHCP) who used to play basketball together.

The band:
Stone Gossard: guitar
Mike McCready: guitar
Jeff Ament: bass
Matt Cameron: drums
Chris Friel: drums on tracks 4 and 10

Track List:
1. The King (would become Even Flow)
2. Dollar Short (would become Alive)
3. Richard's 'E' (would become Alone)
4. 'E' Ballad (would become Black)
5. ? (Untitled - never released)
6. Weird 'A' (would become Animal)
7. 7Up (would become Pushin' Forward Back)
8. Doobie 'E' (would become Breath)
9. Agytian Crave (would become Once)
10. Times of Trouble (would become Footsteps) (this song also appears on Temple of the Dog with the same title)
11. Evil 'E' (would become Girl)
12. Folk 'D' (never released)
