Versione francese di Riccardo Venturi
20 août 2005 / 20 agosto 2005
Le "Théâtre des Petits Artisans" (Teatro degli Artigianelli) était un vieux théâtre populaire situé dans le plus pauvre quartier du centre historique de Florence, San Frediano. C'était en origine une salle de loisir pour les jeunes apprentis artisans du quartier.
Il devint ensuite un cinéma populaire dans le Florence affamé et à moitié détruit de l'après guerre, que l'écrivain florentin Vasco Pratolini a décrit dans son roman "Les filles de San Frediano".
Il a terminé sa carrière comme cinéma porno misérable, avant de sa démolition.

But when the second tower was hit I knew then that this was real and it was no accident. After about an hour my friend called and said can you believe this? I said, "no" The tower had just fallen.

"The new words were written in 2003 after the U.S. government officials advised people to stock up on duct tape as the war in Iraq seemed imminent. They were to use the tape to seal windows and doors in the event of a chemical or biological attack. The parody is based on Woody Guthrie'a song Slip Knot, written in the 1940s on the subject of lynching."

Una lunghissima ballata che...rivisita l'intera storia della guerra fredda in un'epoca in cui essa era ancora ben lontana dal terminare. Viene però la voglia di sottotitolarla: "Scritta appena ieri"...
A very long ballad by a Swedish band revisiting the entire story of the Cold War in a time when its end wasn't in sight yet. But a definitely appropriate side title for it could be well "Written only yesterday"...

Who'll Stop The Rain?
![Who'll Stop The Rain?](img/upl/Creedence-Clearwater-Rev-Wholl-Stop-The-Ra-555101.jpg)
Group leader John Fogerty wrote this. Like some of his other songs, like "Fortunate Son," it is a protest of the Vietnam War.
When interviewed by Rolling Stone magazine, John Fogerty was asked, "Does 'Who'll Stop The Rain' contain lyrically specific meanings besides the symbolic dimension?" His response: "Certainly, I was talking about Washington when I wrote the song, but I remember bringing the master version of the song home and playing it. My son Josh was four years old at the time, and after he heard it, he said, 'Daddy stop the rain.' And my wife and I looked at each other and said, 'Well, not quite.'"
*
Bruce Springsteen opened with this song during his summer stadium tour of 2003 whenever it was raining.

Who'll Stop the Rain" is written in the classic folk tradition about the lives of common people neglected by those in power. It's a political statement against politicians... (Continues)

What About Me

(Dino Valente)
December, 1970
Canzone che apre e dà il titolo al quinto album di Dino Valenti e soci.
Scritta da Jesse Oris Farrow, pseudonimo di Dino Valenti, pseudonimo di Chet Powers.
Interpretata anche da Richie Havens
Un attacco senza mezzi termini all’America capitalista, imperialista e militarista degli anni di Nixon e della guerra in Vietnam. Nei versi che recitano “Se scendi in piazza per ciò in cui credi, preparati ad essere ucciso” e “Mi sento uno straniero nel paese in cui sono nato” c’è tutta la rabbia dei Quicksilver e di tutti i giovani americani per gli assassinii di Stato avvenuti alla Kent University nel maggio di quello stesso anno (e si vedano al proposito le molte canzoni presenti sul sito, da Ohio a Driving Through Mythical America a The Knife).

Two Hangmen
Mason Profitt, on the other hand, were one of the first groups to have the vision to cross over from folk to rock to country and still send a message to the youth of America. In their 1969 LP, Wanted! was the song Two Hangmen. This became an underground FM staple about the troubling direction the country was heading in the late sixties. Mason Profitt are considered in some circles to be the best band that never made it to the big time.

It Better End Soon

(1969)
(Robert Lamm-Terry Kath)
Political awareness was affecting middle of the road bands too. Chicago a.k.a. Chicago Transit Authority began delving into politics as well. In their 1st LP released in 1969, the band included chants from demonstrators outside the 1968 Democratic Convention. In the 1970 LP Chicago II Robert Lamm penned a song titled It Better End Soon about the kinds of questions the youth of America were asking and specifically about the Vietnam War.
Robert Lamm: 'I think just being alive in those times and watching that conflict in asia unfold on television daily because lord knows we all sat around and watched a lot of television, then the culture shock of moving from chicago to california. and then the alternative press, the L.A. Free Press, was very much into the hot topic of revolution. It seemed that the generation of which i was a member and the generation which... (Continues)

Rejoyce
![Rejoyce](img/upl/After_bathing_at_baxters.jpg)
From the LP "After Bathing at Baxters" (1967)
Dopo che Grace Slick si unì ai Jefferson Airplane nel 1966, la musica divenne più audace e più politica. Secondo il biografo degli Airplane Jeff Tamarkin, durante le registrazioni dell'LP "After Bathing At Baxter", Grace Slick stava sperimentando una ricerca di testi più intellettuali.
La canzone "Rejoyce" era basata sul romanzo Ulisse di James Joyce.
Grace Slick: 'Ho semplicemente dato per scontato che la maggior parte delle persone della mia generazione avevano fatto almeno un paio d'anni di scuola superiore e ho inoltre pensato che la mia generazione avrebbe capito l'umorismo nero della canzone, l'idea di una madre che dice quanto è meraviglioso suo figlio perché ha ammazzato un sacco di gente. Una sorta di moda disgustosa del tempo di guerra.'
