John Hiatt - Slow Turning (1988)

Happy Birthday to American singer and songwriter John Hiatt, who is turning 71 today. He’s known from a long solo career, and from the “hobby band” Little Village, together with Ry Cooder, Nick Lowe and Jim Keltner. Although he’s had some moderate success through the years, John Hiatt is probably best known as a songwriter, being nominated nine times for a Grammy award. His songs have been recorded by numerous artists, including Bob Dylan, Bonnie Raitt and Iggy Pop. To celebrate John Hiatt’s birthday, here is Slow Turning, the title track from his ninth album.

I’ve had the pleasure to see John Hiatt live once, sometime in the late 1980’s. Good memory.

Magazine - Motorcade

Let us celebrate the memory of Scottish guitarist John McGeoch, who would have turned 68 today if he hadn’t passed away in 2004 aged 48. He played guitar in several new wave/post-punk bands, among others Siouxsie & The Banshees and Public Image Ltd.

Personally I remember John McGeoch best from Magazine, who probably may be the most musically sk__led band from that era. Their three first album’s, all with John, are excellent. To celebrate John McGeoch’s memory, and make sure his name gets mentioned once again, here is Motorcade from Magazine’s debut album from 1978. Plenty of John’s guitar work here.

Playing For Change, with John Paul Jones - When the Levee Breaks

Quote - “Playing For Change (PFC) is a Certified B Corp (Social Purpose Organization) created to inspire and connect the world through music, born from the shared belief that music has the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people.”

By the way, the footage from Norway in this video, is from the area where I come from. Still remember those winters. I don’t really miss them, but somehow thinking about them gives me a good feeling.
