STEREOFONICO significa suono proveniente da differenti sorgenti, in differente locazione, con differenti livelli di volume in due o più canali sonori separati. Il suono stereofonico moderno ottenuto col nostro sistema in 6 FASI aggiunge, alle sue proprietà particolari di purezza, la terza dimensione del suono. Raggiunge quindi la chiara distinzione tra primo piano, sonorità intermedia e sottofondo come pure tra le fonti sonore di destra, centro e sinistra. Servendoci di due soli altoparlanti, possiamo udire le tre dimensioni dei suoni. A questa realizzazione stereofonica il 6 FASI aggiunge la purezza ed il significato dell'alta fedeltà.

Complessa e immensa appare la comunione dell'alta fedeltà con la stereofonia, ma il nostro 6 FASI ha raggiunto lo scopo dividendo il suono in tre dimensioni. Col SUPERSTEREO siamo riusciti a produrre, inoltre, una grande quantità di suoni nuovi e colori strumentali che sarebbe impossibile ricreare nel suono monofonico.

Il grande vantaggio della riproduzione stereofonica consiste nell'aggiungere alle caratteristiche dell'alta fedeltà il grande piacere, per l'ascoltatore, della sensazione direzionale, di profondità, insieme dell'intensità dello svolgimento musicale. Questa sensazione è di grande soddisfazione perché aggiunge una dimensione di realismo all'ascolto. Affinché questa sensazione sia resa più piacevole e completa è consigliabile che l'ascolto avvenga nel modo richiesto dalla tecnica acustica.

La posizione dell'ascoltatore e la distanza dello stesso dai due altoparlanti dovrebbe descrivere un triangolo. Se l'ascoltatore siede direttamente di fronte ad un altoparlante, non può udire praticamente nulla dell'altro e la sua sensazione della direzione del suono è svanita. La giusta posizione dei due altoparlanti e dell'ascoltatore è cosa essenziale per un perfetto ascolto stereofonico.

Il triangolo formato dai due altoparlanti e dall'ascoltatore dovrebbe avere gli stessi lati, comunque l'angolo dell'ascoltatore non deve essere inferiore ai 30° nè superiore ai 45°. Questa relazione permette all'ascoltatore di mantenere la distanza dagli altoparlanti quasi uguale a quella che intercorre tra gli altoparlanti stessi, assicurando così una variazione di tempo sufficiente a procurare l'effetto stereofonico.

Proviamo a spostarci di lato o qualche metro indietro e il suono sembrerà provenire da una sola parte sonora; proviamo invece a rientrare sino a stabilire la nostra distanza dagli altoparlanti uguale a quella esistente tra essi e l'effetto stereofonico è ristabilito.

Altra regola importante è quella di mantenere l'altezza degli altoparlanti (da terra in modo che il suono giunga direttamente alle nostre orecchie, senza nasconderli tra i libri o dietro le poltrone).

Non basta disporre di un buon apparecchio e di buoni dischi. Bisogna dosare bene e linearmente i vari livelli dell'apparecchio, il peso del braccio, controllare con il disco stroboscopico che i giri del piatto siano veramente 33 1/3 giri al minuto (molti apparecchi girano più veloci); in tal caso tutta la parte sonora viene alterata. Qualche giro in più del piatto può distorgere sgradevolmente certi suoni dati dalle alte frequenze, alterando l'effetto creato appositamente in fase di mixaggio. Una puntina rovinata non riesce più a captare certe frequenze che renderebbero il suono vivente.

Taken from the 1970 movie directed by Henri Verneuil, starring Alain Delon, Jean Gabin, Lino Vertura and Irina Demick. After the novel of Auguste Le Breton. Produced by Jacques E. Strauss.

Edizioni Musicali Century Music-Tank

iL FiLM:

Il clan dei siciliani è un film del 1969, diretto da Henri Verneuil, tratto dall'omonimo romanzo di Auguste Le Breton.

TRAMA:

Una banda criminale capeggiata dal gangster Roger Sartet mette a segno con abilità e precisione una rapina a una mostra itinerante di gioielli. La relazione tra Roger e la moglie di uno dei giovani del clan scatena vendette interne al gruppo e incrina il muro di omertà permettendo alla polizia di avere la meglio sui criminali sopravvissuti.
Fa molta impressione una scena del film, che sembra presagire con inquietante similitudine una situazione realmente vissuta durante gli attentati di New York dell'11 settembre 2001. Il clan dei criminali infatti, allo scopo di derubare la collezione di gioielli, si sostituisce all'equipaggio di un aereo dirottandolo. Dopo aver sorvolato a bassa quota la città di New York, atterra su una autostrada in costruzione, portando a termine con successo il proprio colpo.

CURiOSiTA':

In una scena viene inquadrata l'insegna dell'attivita' commerciale di vendita di giochi elettronici, dove è riportata erroneamente la scritta "MANALESE". La famiglia dei siciliani si chiama invece Malanese, come più volte ripetuto nel corso del film.

TRACKLiST:

Side B - El Coco - Put On Your Jeans

EL COCO:

El Coco was the best-known of several projects by cult disco favorites W. Michael Lewis and Laurin Rinder, who produced, arranged, wrote, and played all the instruments on the vast majority of their material.
Their distinctive sound was partly a result of their jazz training, which showed up not only in their arrangements and chord progressions, but in the overall musicality and sonic imagination. Rinder had been a longtime session and touring drummer for rock and soul artists, and played on sessions at Motown and Muscle Shoals.
He met keyboardist Lewis in Los Angeles during the late '60s at an audition for the Standells; the two went on to play in a rock band called Joshua, and in 1973 were hired by the AVI label to play on some extended RB remixes geared for danceclub play.
Thus hooked into the emerging disco sound, Rinder and Lewis began producing and recording their own tracks in 1975, issuing the LP Caravan under the fictitious group name El Coco (a drug reference).
Mondo Disco followed in 1976, as did Let's Get It Together, the point where they really hit their stride.
The title cut was co-written by singer Merria Ross and was a substantial club hit, breaking El Coco on the disco scene.
The title tracks on 1977's Cocomotion and 1978's Dancing Paradise were also successful, with the former (again co-written by Ross) ranking as El Coco's best-remembered outing. By this time, Rinder and Lewis were producing TV theme music as well, and began issuing side projects on the Butterfly label as well; these alternate guises included Tuxedo Junction, Saint Tropez, le Pamplemousse, Rinder Lewis, and the Rinlew Allstars. Following 1979's Dance Man, the duo retired the El Coco name to concentrate on their other projects; in the wake of the anti-disco backlash, they remained in television for a time during the early '80s before retiring from music.

JOHNNiE TAYLOR:

Johnnie Taylor (May 5, 1934, 1937 or 1938? – May 31, 2000) was an American vocalist in a wide variety of genres, from gospel, blues and soul to pop, doo-wop and disco.

EARLY YEARS:

Johnnie Harrison Taylor was born in Crawfordsville, Arkansas. As an adult, he had one release, "Somewhere to Lay My Head", on Chicago's Chance Records label in the 1950s, as part of the gospel group Highway QCs, which had been founded by a young Sam Cooke. His singing was strikingly close to that of Sam Cooke, and he was hired to take Cooke's place in Cooke's gospel group, the Soul Stirrers, in 1957.

A few years later, after Cooke had established his independent SAR Records, Taylor signed on and recorded "Rome Wasn't Built In A Day" in 1962. However, SAR Records quickly became defunct after Cooke's death in 1964.

In 1966, Taylor moved to Stax Records in Memphis, Tennessee, where he was dubbed "The Philosopher of Soul". Whilst there he recorded with the label's house band, Booker T. & the MGs. His hits included "I Had a Dream", "I've Got to Love Somebody's Baby" (both written by the team of Isaac Hayes and David Porter) and most notably "Who's Making Love", which reached No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and No. 1 on the R&B chart in 1968. "Who's Making Love" sold over one million copies, and was awarded a gold disc.

During his tenure at Stax, he became an R&B star, with over a dozen chart successes, such as "Jody's Got Your Girl and Gone", which reached No. 23 on the Hot 100 chart, "Cheaper to Keep Her" (Mack Rice) and record producer Don Davis's penned "I Believe in You (You Believe in Me)", which reached No. 11 on the Hot 100 chart. "I Believe in You (You Believe in Me)" also sold in excess of one million units, and was awarded gold disc status by the R.I.A.A. in October 1973. Taylor, along with Isaac Hayes and The Staple Singers was one of the label's flagship artists. He appeared in the documentary film, Wattstax, which was released in 1973.

HAMiLTON BOHANNON:

Hamilton Bohannon (born Hamilton Frederick Bohannon, March 7, 1942, Newnan, Georgia) is an American percussionist, band leader and record producer, who was one of the leading figures in 1970s disco music.

CAREER:

After graduating from Clark College, Atlanta and playing in local bands, he was hired by Stevie Wonder to be the drummer in his touring band. He moved to Detroit in 1965 and was employed by Motown as band leader and arranger for many of the label’s top acts. When Motown moved from Detroit in 1972, he stayed behind to form his own band. His band featured members of the Detroit band The Fabulous Counts.

He signed with Dakar/Brunswick Records and in early 1973 released the album Stop And Go. This was followed by five more albums for the label over the next two years, on which he perfected his formula of heavy, thudding bass accents and aggressive rhythms. Although several of his tracks were club hits, he had limited chart success – however, in 1975 "Disco Stomp" made the Top Ten in the UK, and "Foot Stompin’ Music" later that year scraped into the Billboard Hot 100 and R&B Top 40.

In 1976, Bohannon signed to Mercury Records and two years later had his biggest success with "Let’s Start The Dance." It made the R&B Top Ten and featured the singer Carolyn Crawford, whose subsequent albums Bohannon went on to produce.

Although he continued to release records through the 1980s using new vocalists Liz Lands and Altrinna Grayson, he met with diminishing success. Nevertheless, more recently his music has been widely sampled.

His name was mentioned in the Tom Tom Club song "Genius of Love."

Bohannon is a devout Christian and dedicated his album "Dance Your Ass Off" to "God and His Son, Jesus Christ". The album also included a disclaimer that "The word 'ass' is not used here in the sense of profanity."

CARL DOUGLAS:

Carl Douglas (born 10 May 1942) is a Jamaican-born singer, most famous for his song "Kung Fu Fighting", which hit number one on both the UK Singles Chart and the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in 1974. The R.I.A.A. awarded gold disc status on 27 November, and it won a Grammy Award for Best Selling Single in 1974. The fame of this homage to martial arts films has overshadowed the rest of the singer's career, resulting in his appearance on cover versions of the song. Douglas did release two other singles ("Blue Eyed Soul" and "Dance The Kung Fu", which was sampled by DJ Premier in his 2007 remix of Nike's 25th Air Force One anniversary single "Classic (Better Than I've Ever Been)", featuring Kanye West, Nas, KRS-One and Rakim. But he has gone down in recording history as an example of a one hit wonder.

He was at one time managed by Eric Woolfson, later the primary songwriter behind The Alan Parsons Project.

In 1998, a re-recording of his most famous song, billed as Bus Stop featuring Carl Douglas, reached number 8 in the UK Singles Chart.

He now resides in Hamburg, Germany where he runs SMV (Schacht Musik Verlage), a publishing company that coordinates films, documentaries, and advertisements.

KUNG FU FiGHTiNG:

"Kung Fu Fighting" is a song written and performed by Carl Douglas and Vivian Hawke, and produced by Biddu. It was released as a single in 1974, at the cusp of a chopsocky film craze, and quickly rose to the top of British and American charts. "Kung Fu Fighting" was also number one on the soul singles chart for one week. The song also is famous for its use of the quintessential Oriental Riff, a short musical phrase that is used to signify Chinese culture.

It originally was meant to be a B-side to I Want to Give You My Everything (written by Brooklyn songwriter Larry Weiss, Sung by Carl Douglas), and was recorded in the last ten minutes of his studio time.

Douglas states that his inspiration to write the song was affected by three factors: he had seen a kung fu movie, later visited a jazz concert by Oscar Peterson, and was suffering from side-effects of pain killers (Douglas had injured his foot playing football). Another account gives his inspiration simply as seeing two kids in London doing kung fu moves.

Kung Fu Fighting was rated #100 in VH1's 100 Greatest one-hit wonders, and number 1 in the UK Channel 4's Top 10 One Hit Wonders list in 2000, the same channel's 50 Greatest One Hit Wonders poll in 2006 and Bring Back ... the one-hit Wonders, for which Carl Douglas performed the song in a live concert.

GENESiS:

Upon seeing his friend was suffering a bad experience whilst high on mescaline, Santana composed a song titled "The Mushroom Lady's Coming to Town". This precursor contained the first lick to the song "Europa". It was put away and not touched for some time.

When Santana was touring with Earth, Wind & Fire in Manchester, England, he played this song again, this time with Tom Coster who helped him with some of the chords and thus Europa was born. It was renamed to "Europa (Earth's Cry Heaven's Smile)".

COVERS:

A famous rendition was by saxophonist Gato Barbieri off his 1976 from album Caliente!.
In 2006, saxophonist Jimmy Sommers covered the song for his Standards album "Time Stands Still."
Contemporary jazz guitarist Nils released a rendition from his 2009 album Up Close & Personal.

Side A - Enrico Simonetti - Gamma
Side B - Enrico Simonetti - Drug's Theme

Enrico Simonetti (Alassio, 29 gennaio 1924 – Roma, 28 maggio 1978) è stato un pianista e compositore italiano.

BiOGRAFiA:

Visse in Brasile dal 1952 al 1961 prima di rientrare in Italia.

Il suo capolavoro è indubbiamente la celeberrima musica composta per la sigla dello sceneggiato Gamma, diretto nel 1975 da Salvatore Nocita, che veleggia per molte settimane al primo posto dei 45 giri più venduti, ma si ricorda nello stesso anno Blue frog.

Musicista dal gusto squisito, Simonetti fu anche un ottimo presentatore e un amabile intrattenitore, capace di suscitare tenerezza negli adulti ed interesse nei più piccini con le sue 'favolette' al pianoforte, da lui magistralmente suonato. Da ricordare, in proposito, alcune trasmissioni di successo quali Il signore ha suonato? , Lei non si preoccupi e Aiuto è vacanza con Isabella Biagini negli anni sessanta, L'amico della notte negli anni settanta. Diresse inoltre il complesso orchestrale in alcune riviste del sabato sera quali Senza Rete con Ornella Vanoni, Canzonissima 1972 nel 1972 e Formula due del 1973 con Loretta Goggi e Alighiero Noschese. Di queste ultime due fu anche l'autore delle sigle, rispettivamente Vieni via con me (Tarata-pun-zi-è) e Molla tutto e la struggente Per dirti ciao. Successivamente diresse l'orchestra nel varietà Scuola serale per aspiranti italiani condotto nel 1977 da Anna Mazzamauro.

Enrico Simonetti, partecipò anche in veste di attore in diversi film, tra cui si ricorda Una ragazza tutta d'oro del 1967, Amanti del 1968, Grazie... nonna del 1975 e Ridendo e scherzando del 1978, che è il suo ultimo film e di cui è anche autore della colonna sonora. Nel western musicale per la RAI, Non cantare, spara del 1968, compare, assieme a Mina, nelle vesti di pianista di saloon.

Si spense in una clinica romana, per alcune complicazioni in seguito ad un'operazione chirurgica di asportazione di un tumore alla gola.

Il figlio Claudio Simonetti percorre con grande successo le sue orme, dapprima negli anni settanta con il gruppo musicale dei Goblin, quando collabora soprattutto con Dario Argento per l'indimenticabile leitmotiv del film Profondo rosso e di tanto in tanto con il padre, e poi da solo come compositore di colonne sonore molto apprezzate.

iL FiLM:

Girato nel 1974 negli studi Rai di Torino e in Francia (nonché in alcune locations, ad esempio l'autodromo di Monza per le riprese in pista), Gamma è la seconda grande produzione Rai - dopo A come Andromeda del 1972 - nel campo della fantascienza. Scritto dal medico-scrittore Fabrizio Trecca, il soggetto dello sceneggiato ha come ambientazione 'obbligata' - per via di alcuni peculiari risvolti dell'intreccio - la Francia, paese in cui la ghigliottina non era all'epoca ancora stata abolita.
Abilmente intessuta dagli sceneggiatori Trecca e Nicolini, e magistralmente sottolineata dalle splendide musiche di Enrico Simonetti (il 45 giri con i due pezzi Gamma e Drug's Theme si piazzò bene in classifica), la drammatica vicenda di Gamma si dipana lungo le quattro puntate insinuando nello spettatore un forte senso di angoscia e apprensione per le sorti del protagonista Jean Delafoy. In realtà il 'pugno nello stomaco' lo spettatore lo ha ricevuto subito, da quegli incredibili otto minuti iniziali: la claustrofobica sequenza - il cui sinistro realismo è accentuato da un efficace indugiare su dettagli apparentemente banali - di Daniel Lucas condotto alla ghigliottina, adagiato sul lettino e sedato con allucinogeni che fanno riemergere dalla mente del giovane frammenti distorti del suo recente passato. Assolutamente magistrale e angosciante, poi - tanto di cappello a Nocita! - è l'ultima parte della sequenza, con la 'visione' della diabolica ex-amante Marianne intervallata con i dettagli dell'indicatore dei secondi che mancano all'esecuzione. Non si era probabilmente mai visto, in Rai, nulla di così impressionante.
Ciò che pare contraddistinguere Gamma rispetto ad altre simili fantasie avveniristiche - televisive e cinematografiche - è il suo abile e perturbante intrecciare la realtà con l'allucinazione, le più incredibili utopie tecnologiche (il trapianto del cervello, o l'ancora più implausibile "visualizzatore di ricordi" che, nella terza puntata, inchioda Jean) con la quotidianità del presente. Ecco uno dei futuri possibili che ci attendono, sembrano dire gli autori dello sceneggiato; i quali, più che a un ammonimento moraleggiante contro i rischi di una tecnocrazia esasperata priva di remore etiche, hanno a nostro avviso inteso rappresentare un incubo ad occhi aperti, un'allucinazione futuribile che ha soprattutto nella propria materia narrativa e spettacolare la principale ragion d'essere.
Per finire, due parole sugli autori. Fabrizio Trecca è nato a Roma il 19 agosto 1940. Già professore di 'chirurgia di pronto soccorso' all'Università dell'Aquila, è autore di varie pubblicazioni scientifiche. Conduttore di rubriche radiofoniche e televisive, è autore, oltre che di Gamma, della serie di telefilm Diagnosi (1975). Ha pubblicato nel 1979 il best seller Johnny Lancet, chirurgo del Pentagono. Appassionato e pilota di auto sportive, nel 1981 ha pubblicato il romanzo Formula Uomo, in cui è ripreso e sviluppato il tema della medicina avveniristica ambientato nel mondo delle corse automobilistiche, già presente in Gamma. Attualmente conduce su Retequattro il programma Vivere meglio.
Il regista Salvatore Nocita è nato ad Arcisate (Varese) il 30 luglio 1934; entrato in Rai nel 1958 come montatore, ha debuttato nella regia televisiva nel 1972 con lo sceneggiato I Nicotera; nel 1974 ha realizzato tre episodi di Senza uscita, nel 1976 Dimenticare Lisa e Gli irreperibili, nel 1977 Ligabue, nel 1979 La commediante veneziana e nel 1989 la nuova versione dei Promessi sposi.

Chic - Good Times (1979) 45RPM RiP

2011-02-14T18:17:00.006+01:00

B-side.............................."A Warm Summer Night"
Released..........................1979
Format..............................45RPM

Producer...........................Bernard Edwards & Nile Rodgers
Label................................Atlantic
Filetype............................Wav @ 48kHz

TRACKLiST:

Side A - Chic - Good Times
Side B - Chic - A Warm Summer Night

HiSTORY:

The lyrics are largely based on Milton Ager's "Happy Days Are Here Again."
It also contains lines based on lyrics featured in "About a Quarter to Nine" made famous by Al Jolson.
Nile Rodgers has stated that these depression-era lyrics were used as a hidden way to comment
on the then-current economic depression in the United States.

Songs that sample "Good Times"

In late 1979, Debbie Harry suggested that Nile Rodgers join her and Chris Stein at a Hip hop event in a communal space taken over by young kids and teenagers with boom box stereos, who would play various pieces of music to which performers would break dance. The main piece of music they would use was the break section of "Good Times." A few weeks later, Blondie, The Clash and Chic were playing a gig in New York at Bonds nightclub. When Chic started playing "Good Times," rapper Fab Five Freddy and members of the Sugarhill Gang jumped up on stage and started freestyling with the band; Rodgers allowed them to "do their improvisation thing like poets, much like I would playing guitar with Prince."

A few weeks later Rodgers was on the dance floor of New York club LaViticus and suddenly heard the DJ play a song which opened with Edwards bass line from "Good Times". Rogers approached the DJ who said he was playing a record he had just bought that day in Harlem. The song turned out to be an early version of "Rapper's Delight" by The Sugarhill Gang, which Rogers noted also included a scratched version of the song's string section. Rogers and Edwards threatened The Sugarhill Gang with legal action, which resulted in them being credited as co-writers on "Rappers Delight".

In the USA "Rapper's Delight" did not achieve as much chart success as "Good Times" (peaking at #36 on the U.S. pop chart and #4 on the American R&B charts, compared to Chic's #1 peak on both charts) but it helped to popularize the bassline and the song, and it became one of the most sampled tracks (and hence one of the most distinctive basslines) in the history of recorded music. Having agreed on a commercial structure for the use of their song in "Rappers Delight", Edwards and Rodgers agreed to later uses in other songs, subject to their strict criteria.

In recent concerts, Nile Rodgers usually segues into his rendition of "Rapper's Delight" when Chic performs this song.
