Brainiac    USA

 

 indie-rock band from Ohio

 

On a late May morning in 1997,

a mangled lamppost surrounded

by the wreckage of a 1977

forest-green Mercedes-Benz

stood near

Lawn and North Main Streets

in Dayton, Ohio.

 

Tim Taylor,

the 28-year-old leader of Brainiac,

the city’s swiftly ascending

synth-punk band,

had been driving home alone

from a local nightclub

at about 3:25 a.m.

when his car spun out of control,

crashed and exploded in flames.
 

 

Brainiac

— often stylized as 3RA1N1AC —

had recently toured with Beck,

played Lollapalooza and recorded

with Kim Deal, John Peel

and Steve Albini.

 

The group was known

for its hyper-energetic

live performances,

where Taylor writhed

across the stage.

 

According to the band’s

surviving members

— the bassist Juan Monasterio,

the guitarist John Schmersal

and the drummer Tyler Trent —

major labels,

including Interscope and Elektra,

were wooing the group

with seven-figure offers.

 

But when Taylor,

the son of the cellist

Linda Taylor

and the jazz guitarist

Terry Taylor,

died in the accident,

so did Brainiac

 and the opportunities

awaiting the band.

The Elephant 6 Recording Company    USA    1980s-2010s

 

loosely defined musical collective

from the United States.

 

Notable bands associated

with the collective include

the Apples in Stereo, Beulah,

Circulatory System, Elf Power,

the Minders,

Neutral Milk Hotel, of Montreal,

and the Olivia Tremor Control.

 

Although bands in Elephant 6

explore many different genres,

they have a shared interest

in psychedelic pop of the 1960s,

with particular influence from bands

such as the Beach Boys,

the Beatles, and the Zombies.

 

Their music sometimes features

intentionally low fidelity production

and experimental recording

techniques.

 

The collective started

in Ruston, Louisiana

in the late 1980s.

Screaming Trees    USA

 

(Mark Lanegan)

met the founding members

of Screaming Trees in high school,

and the band released

its first album in 1986,

with an aesthetic that married

flannel shirts and long hair

with angsty songs

and rasping guitars.

 

The band pioneered a sound

fusing heavy metal and punk rock

— a genre later known as grunge —

and helped bring it

to the mainstream,

releasing hits like

“Nearly Lost You” in 1992

and “All I Know” in 1996.

 

The Seattle grunge scene

found critical success in the 1990s,

by which time the Screaming Trees

were a key player

but not a marquee act.

 

In 1996,

after the band released

its seventh album in 10 years,

it took a hiatus

while Mr. Lanegan worked

on his third solo album,

according to

a biography of the band

on allmusic.com.

 

Screaming Trees

never quite picked up

its momentum again

and disbanded in 2000.

Ry Cooder    USA

 

Some of the first records

Ry Cooder heard

and loved as a child

were Woody Guthrie’s songs 

about working-class people

in the Great Depression.

 

He never quite got them

out of his system.

 

There has been a strain

of social commentary

in his albums, going back

to his solo debut,

when he covered

Guthrie’s “Do Re Mi”

and Alfred Reed’s

“How Can a Poor Man

Stand Such Times

and Live?”

Yes    UK

 

Yes, formed in 1968,

was known

for its blend of rock,

jazz, folk

and classical influences

and also for its complex

time signatures

and pristine

vocal harmonies.

 

One of the first

of the so-called progressive

(or prog) rock bands

— among the others

were King Crimson

and Emerson,

Lake & Palmer —

it went on to become

the most successful

and longest-lasting.

 

The first Yes albums

to reach a wide

international audience

were the group’s

third and fourth,

“The Yes Album” (1971)

and “Fragile” (1972),

both released

in the United States

on Atlantic.

Ronald Cornett Hawkins    USA    1935-2022

 

Ronnie Hawkins (...)

combined the gregarious

stage presence

of a natural showman

and a commitment

to turbocharged rockabilly music

in a rowdy career

that spanned more

than a half-century

 

(...)

 

She did not say

where he died

or disclose the cause,

though she said

he had been quite ill.

 

Mr. Hawkins

started performing

in his native Arkansas

in the late 1950s

and became

a roadhouse entertainer

based in Canada in the 1960s,

his music forever rooted

in the primal rock ’n’ roll rhythms

of Bo Diddley and Chuck Berry.

 

For all of his success,

his biggest claim to fame

was not the music

he produced but the musicians

he attracted and mentored.

 

His backup musicians

of the early 1960s,

Levon Helm, Robbie Robertson,

Garth Hudson, Richard Manuel

and Rick Danko,

went on to form the Band,

which backed Bob Dylan

and became

one of the most admired

and influential bands

in rock history.

 

But those musicians,

like many of Mr. Hawkins’s fans,

never lost their reverence

for the man known as the Hawk.

Stewart Lupton    USA    1975-2018

 

singer-songwriter

whose short-lived ’90s band

Jonathan Fire*Eater

burned fast and bright,

falling short

of major-label rock stardom

but inspiring a wave

of New York acts

in the early 2000s

 

(...)

 

Mr. Lupton’s family,

in a statement,

gave no cause of death

but said it stemmed

from a “desperate attempt

to escape the voices

that so tormented him.”

 

Jonathan Fire*Eater,

with Mr. Lupton

as its charismatic,

frenetic frontman,

released only two albums

and a smattering

of demos and EPs

before its demise in 1998.

 

Yet the band’s screechy,

danceable post-punk sound,

propelled by a rowdy organ

and Mr. Lupton’s wails,

helped plant the seed

of the New York rock revival

that would bring the Strokes,

Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Interpol

and LCD Soundsystem

to international acclaim.

Spencer Davis,

the leader of a rock group

under his name

that had some of the most propulsive

and enduring hits of the 1960s,

including “Gimme Some Lovin’,”

“I’m a Man” and “Keep On Running”

— all sung not by him

but by a teenage Steve Winwood —

 

(...)

 

Mr. Davis

co-wrote “Gimme Some Lovin’,”

his group’s biggest hit.

 

He played rhythm guitar

in the band

and occasionally sang

lead vocals,

lending his baritone voice mostly

to blues-oriented material.

 

But it was Mr. Winwood,

who was only 15

when Mr. Davis discovered him,

who emerged as the group’s star,

singing lead on its hit singles

and later becoming

an essential figure in British rock

through his work with the bands

Traffic and Blind Faith

and in a long solo career.

 

After Mr. Winwood abruptly left

the Spencer Davis Group in 1967

to form Traffic,

Mr. Davis kept the band going

through multiple incarnations.

 

In 1968, a new iteration

of the Spencer Davis Group

enjoyed two Top  40 hits in Britain,

“Time Seller”

and “Mr. Second Class.”

Michael / Mick Ronson    UK    1946-1993

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

former lead guitarist

for David Bowie's band,

and (...) rock music producer

 

(...)



Mr. Ronson

was a hard-rock guitarist

who also understood melody,

and his chunky chords and riffs

put a firm rock foundation

under the ironies of Mr. Bowie's

androgynous glam-rock.

 

Songs like "Suffragette City"

helped to establish

the proportions of a genre

that survived the 1970's

and thrived anew in the 1980's

as so-called lite metal.

 

Mr. Ronson joined

Mr. Bowie's band,

the Spiders From Mars,

in the late 1960's,

playing on the albums

"The Man Who Sold the World"

and "Hunky Dory.'

 

He was credited

as co-arranger and guitarist

on the 1972 album

"The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust

and the Spiders From Mars,"

which established Mr. Bowie

as a star.

 

He also performed

and arranged

on Lou Reed's 1972 album

"Transformer,"

including the hit

"Walk on the Wild Side,"

and performed on Mr. Bowie's

1973 album "Aladdin Sane."

Flack's impact as a performer

in the pop music space in the 1970s

was sudden and massive.

Over the next four decades,

Flack built a legacy on a quiet belief in limitlessness.
