The Raz Band / Madison Park


Madison Park
The common history of the guitarist and singer Michael 'Raz' Rescigno and drummer Jeff Hutchinson goes back to the high school, the two, where they played for the first time in a common band. Actually, coming from the northeastern United States, it took the two musicians to sunny Los Angeles, where the band The Contents founded and until its dissolution very diligent played concerts and recordings also plates. Over time, they learned, among others, Joey Molland (former Badfinger, Ex- Natural Gas) and Joe Vitale
(including ex Joe Walsh, Crosby, Stills & Nash, The Eagles) know, what for a long time but rather to private friendships rather than to make music together led.

Previous albums appeared as a solo project under the name Raz, but during the work on the me now present "Madison Park" it happened more and more often that the two already mentioned Mollandand Vitale in the city (Los Angeles) were then also always happy dropped by the studio. The involvement was with the time so influential that the gang leader 'Raz' Rescigno finally decided to introduce the new album under the name The band Raz posting.

What is on offer on this nearly hour drive us, is a high bit fluctuating mix of rock and pop, provided with very strong Beatles -Einflüssen. The disc will be opened very strongly can with the rocker "$ 1.50 For Your Love", the losrockt really heartwarming and also rely on a strong brass section. For the very diversified Pop shares the aforementioned influences of care Fab Four, which can logically close for a very melodic and catchy hook lines squinting at orientation. Many of the sixteen tracks actually took a strong Sixties Touch.
The pieces come all very likeable and also go through into the ear, yet leaves the listener here and there (especially in the texts) not shiver to verhehlende simplicity of Mucke something. In order for the example Beatles to stay, imagine the places to mediocrity almost unsurpassable Lyrics of solo albums of Ringo Starr in front and you've got the quintessential Raz tape recorded.

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
