The Gutbucket Quest , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 609min
Slim's a Texas bluesman of a certain age, down on his luck, and just about broke - but hey, that's what the blues are all about. Then, one day, in a single hot burst of lightning that comes straight up out of the ground, Slim finds himself in Tejas. Not Texas, but somewhere else. It's a little bit magic and a whole lot different, but the blues are the same. And the blues - manifest here in the form of a maple-necked pearl-gray Fender Stratocaster with blue-chrome pickups a.k.a. The Gutbucket - needs him and needs him bad. The Strat's fallen into the hands of T-Bone Pickens and his Vipers, who want to suck up all its power and turn it to evil. Slim's off and running on the Gutbucket Quest, with the help of his new mentor, rhythm guitarist Progress T. Hornsby, and a purely unstoppable blues singer named Nadine. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Gutbucket King , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 85min
In the 1950s, at the age of 14, Little Freddie King hopped a southbound freight train in McComb, Mississippi, fleeing the life of a sharecropper’s son in what was then the "worst part of the most intransigent state" in Jim Crow-era Dixie. Landing in New Orleans, he taught himself to play blues guitar, then found work performing at the city’s corner nightclubs, including one nicknamed the Bucket of Blood for its nightly eruptions of violence. Dodging bullets and drinking with abandon, he became a fixture in the subterranean blues scene. He played a time-breaking, low-down style of blues borne of a life of struggle, and followed a self-destructive course that ensured he never ran out of material. That is, until one drunken night, when his knife-wielding wife attacked him in a jealous rage, one of several brushes with tragedy that would change his life forever. Barry Yeoman, an award-winning journalist who began his career as a newspaper reporter in South Louisiana, first met King while making the 2009 radio documentary Still Singing the Blues. Since then, Yeoman has spent dozens of hours interviewing the bluesman, his friends and family. The result is an intimate and colorful portrait of one of New Orleans’ cultural treasures. Yeoman chronicles King’s journey from picking cotton in rural Mississippi to playing guitar on some of the world’s biggest stages, from spirit-seeing teenager who arrived in New Orleans with "not nary a copper cent" in his bib overalls to a self-effacing septuagenarian at the peak of his musical career - and one of the Crescent City’s last great country bluesmen. It’s a story about music, migration, race, faith, and resilience, and about the deepest of the Deep South during seven decades of profound upheaval. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Dance
Schon kurz nach ihrer Gründung im Jahr 1999 setzten GUTBUCKET Maßstäbe in New Yorks Downtown-Szene - mit einzigartigen, in zahllosen Auftritten erprobten Performances und einem Sound, der sich weiter ins Rockgenre hinein bewegte als bei den meisten ihrer Jazzkollegen. Man erkennt den Jazz von Gutbucket inzwischen deutlich: daran, dass hier nach wie vor am liebsten jegliche Grenzen gesprengt werden, am (hinter)listigen Sinn für Humor und an der wilden Lust am Lauten und Draufgängerischen. Ihr neues Album "Dance", auf dem erstmals der neuen Bassist Pat Swoboda zu hören ist, belegt Gutbuckets große Kunst einmal mehr. Ein Jahr lang haben sie an neuem Material geschrieben, ausgiebig geprobt und dann die neuen Stücke in einer ausgedehnten Tour live getestet, verfeinert, auf den Punkt gebracht. Am Ende der Tournee stand eine ganze Woche mit Konzerten in einem New Yorker Club. Doch nicht irgendeinem Club, sondern John Zorns legendärem Downtown-Venue The Stone, das die Band zum erstklassigen Aufnahmestudio aufrüsten ließen, um die Konzerte für ihre neue, sechste Veröffentlichung mitzuschneiden. Daraus hervor ging nun - akribisch geschnitten und gemixt, um das Beste vom Besten herauszufiltern - "Dance", das Livealbum der Band, das die Energie ihrer Auftritte ebenso zeigt wie die hohe Aufnahme- und Audioqualität der vorhergehenden Gutbucket-Alben.- Shop: odax

Sextet
"The hardest-working saxophonist in new-music show business" nannte ihn das New Yorker Time Out Magazin. Nicht ohne Grund: KEN THOMSON, Mitbegründer der erfolgreichen Band Gutbucket - die seit fast 20 Jahren besteht - und Musiker in mehreren anderen Bands, schrieb auch zahlreiche Kompositionen für Bang On A Can, das American Composers Orchestra, das Asphalt Orchestra, das Jack Quartet. Als Sideman glänzte er auf u.a. auf "Love this Giant" von David Byrne &, St. Vincent. Nun erscheint sein neues Album SEXTET mit folgenden handverlesenen Musikern: Ken Thomson, alto saxophone, compositions (Bang on a Can All-Stars, Slow/Fast, Gutbucket) Anna Webber, tenor saxophone (John Hollenbeck, Matt Mitchell) Russ Johnson, trumpet (Lee Konitz, Steve Swallow, Myra Melford, Ken Vandermark) Alan Ferber, trombone (2-time Grammy nominee, Sunnyside Records)Adam Armstrong, bass (Eric Person, Slow/Fast, 80+ recording credits) Daniel Dor, drums (Avishai Cohen Trio) "21st Century Third Stream" nennt Ken Thomson sein Konzept, dass tatsächlich oft wie ein klassisches Kammerensemble erklingt, aber eben auch Sounds und Melodien aufnimmt, die erst in unser Jahrhundert passen. Sein Album "Sextet" ist zudem eine Hommage an Thelonious Monk's Klassiker "Monk's Music", an das auch das Frontcover erinnert. Thomson, bekannt dafür, dass er in Sekundenbruchteilen von einem Genre ins andere zu wechseln vermag, das Energielevel im Handumdrehen von 0 auf 100 bringen kann, Stop-and-Go-Passagen auf verblüffende Art und Weise in seine Stücke einzuflechten weiß, ist ein Garant für Musik voller Hochspannung, Intensität und exquisiter Güte. Intensität, Komplexität, Dichte, Spontaneität, Leidenschaft und - nicht zu vergessen - Unterhaltungswert: Schlüsselwörter für den Saxofon-Irrwisch, der gefühlt alles kann, was kompositorisch wie spieltechnisch machbar ist. Damit verlangt er seinen Mitmusikern immer wieder Höchstleistungen ab - aber die kongenialen Kollegen stehen dem Meister in nichts nach.- Shop: odax

Delta Moon
Delta Moon -- winner of the Blues Foundation's International Blues Challenge held in Memphis, February 1, 2003 -- formed in the late 1990s when Gina Leigh, Mark Johnson, and Tom Gray all lived within a few blocks of each other in Atlanta's Inman Park neighborhood. The three got together regularly in Mark's livingroom to work up arrangements of classic blues and original songs for two slide guitars and voices. Soon, joined by a rotating cast of percussionists, drummers, and bassists, the band was playing in rib joints, nightclubs, and festivals around Atlanta and neighboring cities. Following the March 2002 release of their debut CD, imaginatively entitled 'Delta Moon,' Following the March 2002 release of their debut CD, imaginatively entitled 'Delta Moon,' the band started ranging farther from home, taking their energetic stage show across the US, Canada and Europe. As one audience member said, 'Thanks for inviting us to your party!' Delta Moon's line-up on this recording was Tom Gray on vocals, lap steel, and keyboards, Mark Johnson on bottleneck guitar, Gina Leigh on vocals and hand percussion, Tommy Dean on bass and backing vocals, and Charles Wolfe and Gerry Hanson on drums. 2003: CD of the Year - Kweevak.com 'Another stellar newcomer to the national music scene ... Delta Moon is poised for greatness, with nothing but a lot of opportunity and a very bright future ahead of them.' - Hittin' the Note 'This is an excellent-sounding album with lots of production punch, soulful performances, and spirited playing. Best of show: a rumble through Fred McDowell's 'Shake 'Em On Down' and Gray's greasy 'House of Dolls.'' - Blues Revue 'A forehead-slappingly fantastic combo that wipes the floor with most of the competition.' - The Atlanta Journal-Constitution 'The name says it all: gutbucket Delta-style blues featuring a classy female singer and a pair of funky, slunky slide guitarists who play as one voice.' - The Charlotte Observer 'Two slide guitars speak in tongues and a young woman dances a siren dance.' - Creative Loafing Atlanta 'A perfect example of contemporary Southern roots music at it's most affecting.' - All Music Guide 'Delta Moon has tapped into a vein of music that is as old as the hills and as vital as a river.' - Playgrounds Magazine, Columbus, GA 'Delta Moon strikes gold with raw intensity.' - Southeast Performer.- Shop: odax
