In 1999, Will Taylor began
collaborating with local and nationally-renowned musical artists, rearranging
their known material, bringing in his own crew of seasoned jazz and
contemporary roots musicians, and moved the performance venue from the
traditional smoky club scene to the beautiful interior and excellent
acoustics of a church sanctuary. Since then Will Taylor & Strings
Attached have presented over fifty concert collaborations to 10,000+ audience
members and countless more through KGSR and KLBJ live radio broadcasts, with
numerous appearances on KUT, KMFA and KOOP radio. Though individual members are accomplished
soloists, when teamed up as Strings Attached, the landscape changes
completely, as they expand the featured artist's vision into other-worldly
territory,
without sacrificing the
intent or spirit of the original work. Will Taylor & Strings Attached
continue to create a body of work that is unique, polished, and captivating,
while showcasing individuals of outstanding vocal and musical talent in the
community. Strings Attached has
been hailed as one of the outstanding examples of what makes Austin the “Live
Music Capital of the World”. Photo

The Beatles Abbey
Road Abbey Road was released in the UK on September
26, 1969, and in the U.S. on October 1. It had been intended by song and
design to be their last album, but things didn't work out as The Beatles
planned. After The Beatles finished recording "The
Beatles" (The White Album) and released it in November, 1968, it was
followed by their third film; Yellow Submarine, which was released in January
1969. During this time period, they also finished songs that would eventually
turn into their last album, Let It Be. However, because the Let It Be
sessions were a disaster for The Beatles, Abbey Road was their attempt to
restore their image. During the Let It Be sessions, The Beatles were at odds
with each other; Yoko was ever present with John; and many times, George and
Ringo would not show up at all. This was the beginning of the end and as it
turned out, Abbey Road caused the death of The Beatles. Because George Martin
favored McCartney's ideas for the album, this caused friction between them
and Lennon, causing John to basically withdraw from the sessions.
Consequently, Abbey Road is really a Paul McCartney album. Much of Lennon's
material was placed by the side, in a manner, considered hackwork. But, strangely, The Beatles never sang nor played
together better then they did on Abbey Road. Although John Lennon resented to
his dying day the fact that Paul did not let him sing the lead on Oh!
Darling, which was Paul's song, they still were never more brilliant, more musically
tight, than on Abbey Road. Their vocals and harmonies were never better, nor
more inventive and precise than on this album. In
an attempt to restore their magic, Abbey Road was a compromise album, whereby
John picked the songs he preferred for side A (on the original vinyl) and
Paul chose the songs for side B, which both he and producer George Martin
liked. The result is what I believe to be one of the top three albums in The
Beatles history. The famous "medley" which began with You Never Give
Me Your Money, was assembled from actually many unfinished songs, vignettes
if you will, that is a work of genius, I believe. Abbey Road is an absolute testament and proof
that they could achieve their highest levels of musicianship, even when it
appeared forced out of them, regardless of their personal problems with each
other. This masterpiece found its way to the surface, in spite of the fact
that it was against the wishes of its creators. .................... |
