When Ian Gillan was recording his solo albums in the late 1970s and early '80s, Deep Purple's influence never went away. But Gillan did make an effort to try different things, and he was at his most experimental on Clear Air Turbulence. Enjoyable, if uneven, this album illustrates Gillan's willingness to take some chances. While the singer favors an aggressive hard rock groove on "Money Lender," the jazz fusion-influenced touches of "Over the Hill," "Goodhand Liza" and the title song could lead you to believe that you'd been listening to Weather Report and Return to Forever. Had Chick Corea formed an alliance with Deep Purple, perhaps it might sound something like "Over the Hill." Heavy metal and hard rock are in short supply on this album, which employs no less than five horn players and shows that Gillan didn't want to be a headbanger 100-percent of the time. ~ Alex Henderson

Ian Gillan never sounded entirely comfortable in the first incarnation of the Ian Gillan Band, quite likely because his colleagues were more interested in progressive rock than he was. Not that Gillan was adverse to prog -- after all this was the Ian Gillan Band, and if he didn't want to move in this direction, he wouldn't -- but he never sounded entirely comfortable with it. That much was certain from Clear Air Turbulence, a full-fledged exploration into jazz fusion and prog rock where the band sounded at ease and the singer sounded tentative, which was perhaps the reason IGB did a 180 for their third album, Scarabus. Released a mere six months after Clear Air Turbulence, Scarabus rocks considerably harder than its predecessor, but there are still flourishes of their more experimental ...

The sheer toughness -- and overall derivative -- nature of Killing Floor's debut album, issued six months after Led Zeppelin's debut in 1969 on the Spark label, is a wondrous contrast to the overly slick treatment American blues were given by British artists. All of these tunes, with the exception of one, are revamped versions of songs from the blues canon with different words. The lone "cover" in the set was written by Willie Dixon titled "Woman You Need Love," the tune Zep ripped for "Whole Lotta Love." Despite the fact that this set was issued before by Repertoire, the Akarma version is definitive in that it features the original cover artwork in a heavy cardboard gatefold sleeve, and killer sound. This is a raw, immediate, overdriven, psychedelic blues record that offers an interesting historical counterpoint to the immediate impact of Page and Plant and Co., ...

VOCAB ~ Biography* Musical Bio: song #1 on “First n Foremost…” albumOn February 6th, 1983 in Toronto Canada, Sean Harvey (a.k.a. Vocab) was born. Both his mother and father had emigrated separately from Jamaica and were introduced through a mutual friend. Vocab’s father (Carl Harvey) was a guitar player for a number of different bands, (among them, Grammy winning Toots and the Maytals). His father’s hectic schedule as a performer conflicted with his mothers’ idea of stability, both emotionally and financially. The relationship was short lived. After Vocab’s first birthday, contact with his father was limited to visitation which dwindled as he got older. In the absence of his father, the young boy (like so many other kids in his demographic) was forced to look elsewhere for male role models. With his mother constantly working and little or no adult supervision after school, Vo found himself with a lot of time to kill and not much to kill it with. So, he did what most young kids did that were stuck in the big city with nothing to do; he hit the streets. Running with a group of older kids, Sean saw more than his share of fights, stabbings and the occasional parties getting shot up. He frequently spent time talking to the fathers of his friends who’d already been through the system. With his mothers’ strict rules, the adolescent decided young that he wasn’t going to succumb to the same pitfalls it seemed so many of his friends were doomed. It wasn’t rap that he used to elevate him from his circumstances. It was his first love, basketball. But, when his NBA hoop dreams turned out to be just that, his love for hip-hop was the one constant from his childhood to adult years. As young as 8, Sean and his cousin Chris would make mixtapes using three ghetto blasters, one to record and the other aimed directly at the speakers of the first. In middle and high school he made mix cd’s for his friends under the moniker “Ridgeway’s finest: DJ Fuck You.” Rapping never entered his mind as a possibility until years later. After moving out to Portland (P-Town) with his mother, the 15 year old young man from Toronto (T-dot) found himself in extremely unfamiliar surroundings. The quick change from an extremely multicultural east coast city to a predominantly white side of town and attending a mostly white school was a culture shock, to say the least.It wasn’t until the summer after his junior year at Lincoln High, when he was first introduced to writing raps. His best friend from Toronto, Bentley, flew to Portland to spend the summer with Cab and his family. ...
