INTERNATIONAL THIEF THIEF (explanation)

 

 

* Uses abbreviation of “International Telephone & Telegraph” to attack all foreign companies for stealing from Africa, and for turning Africans into human-waste carriers [agbepo]. Derides stupid Africans who are put into power as puppets of the companies. Tricked & used by these companies, they become equally greedy & ruthless.

 

“I still want to speak the truth. If I lie, may I be punished by Edumare (a Yoruba god), Osiris, the Ifa (Nigeria gods), & the land itself. I have read about it read it in books, I have seen it personally.

 

Europeans came & forced their ways on Africa. Long ago, Africans didn't carry shit, we shat in a big hole (as evidenced by words for this hole in many African tribal languages-Yoruba, Igbo, Haussa, Ashanti …). When the Europeans came to colonialise us, it was part of their culture to carry shit & taught us Africans to do it, too. They have turned us into agbepo, waste carriers (the lowest members of society).

 

Foreign companies confuse & trick Africans by manipulating (English) words in the newpaper. They subvert & control Africa using the same method: they find a stupid, greedy, & dishonest African, pay him a thousand Naira (Nigerian money), he bribes others to become a chief, but who acts in European interests. Like a rat, creeps here and there, gaining power by befriending journalists, religious leaders, & government officials.

Once in power, he begins embezzling, inflation, confusion, oppression...

 

Two examples of this are Obasanjo (Head of the military) and Abiola (CEO of International Telephone & Telegraph) . We must fight them. We refuse to carry their shit any longer.

2 July,

*Ahmad Jamal was born on this date in 1930. He is an African-American jazz pianist.

 

Born in Pittsburgh, PA., he has been a professional musician since he was 11. In his early years (the late '40s) Jamal joined trumpeter George Hudson's orchestra. The pianist formed his first trio, The Three Strings, in 1951. This trio consisted of piano, guitar and bass. Erroll Garner's melodic technique was an early influence on him. While his crossover success might have buried his reputation in some jazz circles, Jamal's simplicity in his music had a major impact on late '50s cool jazz.

 

In 1958, his trio recorded Ahmad Jamal At The Pershing, which became a huge seller and yielded his notable take on "Poinciana." Miles Davis was an outspoken admirer of Jamal's ease and sense of space. The trumpeter began including Jamal's tunes in his own performances and directed Red Garland to duplicate his sound. Even though Jamal built his reputation on his trio recordings, he has continued to work with different assembles. In the 1970s, he began experimenting with electronic instruments and has also collaborated with orchestras.

 

Currently he continues to tour and record regularly exclusively for the French Birdology label, and his releases are on Verve and Atlantic in the Unided States. Jamal is an exclusive Steinway piano artist.

Ik heb al jaren een cd van Peter Hammill in mijn bezit, maar - vreemd genoeg - had ik tot enkele maanden terug niet de moeite genomen muziek van 'zijn' VDGG te beluisteren. Na enkele gebrande schijfjes te hebben gehoord, vond ik het tijd om e.e.a. aan te schaffen. Betere timing kan niet, aangezien men momenteel bezig is de backcatalogus opnieuw uit te brengen, (uiteraard) remastered en voorzien van extra nummers.

Geen gemakkelijke kost maar na een aantal draaibeurten ben ik deze toch wel gaan waarderen:

3 July,

 

Mississippi John Hurt was born on this date in 1893. He was an African-American blues singer.

 

From Teoc, MS he grew up in the Mississippi hill country town of Avalon. The population was under 100, it is located north of Greenwood, near Grenada. He began playing guitar at age 10, and within a few years was performing at parties, doing ragtime music in those early days. As a farm hand, he lived in relative isolation, and it was only in 1916, when he went to work briefly for the railroad, that he got to broaden his horizons and his repertory beyond Avalon. In the early '20s, he teamed up with white fiddle player Willie Narmour, playing square dances.

 

Hurt was spotted by a representative for Okeh Records in 1927. The company was supposed to record Narmour, and signed Hurt to record after a quick audition. Of the eight sides that Hurt recorded in Memphis in February of 1928, only two were ever released, but he was still asked to record in New York late in 1928. But then came the Depression and many were out of work. Hurt went back to work herding cows for 35 years, until Tom Hoskins, remembering the name of one of the '28 songs went to Avalon, near Greenwood, and asked for him.

 

Hurt's dexterity as a guitarist, coupled with his plain-spoken nature, took away from his following as a popular blues artist, at the time. His playing was too soft and articulate, and his voice too plain to be appreciate in a large setting, such as a dance; his music was best heard in small, intimate gatherings. His excellent guitar playing and his gentle, home-spun folk style, full of good humor and unlike that of any other Delta bluesman, brought him three years of stardom at the end of his life. Mississippi John Hurt left behind a legacy unique in the annals of the blues, and not just in terms of music. A humble, hard-working man who never sought fame or fortune from his music, and who conducted his life in an honest and honorable manner, he also avoided the troubles that afflicted the lives of many of his more tragic fellow musicians.

 

He felt no bitterness over his late-in-life mass success, and as a result continued to please and win over new listeners with his recordings until virtually the last weeks of his life. Nothing he ever recorded was less than inspired, and most of it was superb. No blues singer ever presented a gentler, genial image than Mississippi John Hurt.

Deze wil ik je ook niet onthouden :

 

3 July,

 

Johnny Hartman was born on this date in 1923. He was an African-American singer.

 

Though he was never the most distinctive vocalist, John Maurice Hartman rose above others to become the most commanding, smooth balladeer of the 1950s and '60s. A black crooner, he closely followed Billy Eckstine and built on the form with his notable jazz collaborations, including the 1963 masterpiece John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman. Born in Chicago, he began singing early on and performed while in Special Services in the Army. Hartman studied music in college and made his professional debut in the mid 1940s.

 

He performed with Earl Hines and recorded his first sides for Regent/Savoy. After Hines' band broke up later in 1947, Hartman moved to the Dizzy Gillespie Big Band and stayed for two years, recording a few additional sides for Mercury as well. Johnny Hartman's first proper LP came in 1956 with Songs from the Heart, recorded for Bethlehem and featuring a quartet led by trumpeter Howard McGhee. He recorded a second LP (All of Me) later that year, but then was virtually off record until 1963, when his duet album John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman appeared on Impulse.

 

A beautiful set of ballad standards including top-flight renditions of "Lush Life" and "My One and Only Love," the album sparked a flurry of activity for Hartman, including two more albums for Impulse: 1963's I Just Dropped By To Say Hello and the following year's The Voice That Is. During the late 1960s and early '70s, he recorded a range of jazz and pop standards albums for ABC, Perception and Blue Note. Hartman recorded sparingly during the 1970s, but returned with two albums recorded in 1980, one of which (Once in Every Life) earned a Grammy nomination just two years before his death on Sep 15, 1983 in New York, New York.
