Few
historical events have been so colossal they have actually reshaped
the course of human history and set new bench marks for future events.
Moses giving the laws to the Israelites and leading them from bondage
to civilization. The life and death of Jesus Christ juxtaposed with
the tumult of the Roman Empire. Marco Polo traveling to China and
reporting to the Venetians the incredible story of that ancient civilization.
Columbus discovering the New World. Man first stepping on the Moon
and considering the infinite universe!
In early 2007, five musical phenoms joined forces to assault mediocrity in
commercial music by offering one hit wonders and band favorites to the huddled
masses who yearn for ear pleasure.
Imagine it! Songs from groups or solo artists who mostly sucked, but had one
hit song, performed and all gathered together by one&done to
blow your minds. One time favorites revived by the greatest part time musicians
ever assembled. Tell your children you heard it here first.
Let’s face it, Moses could wander like no other but his musical skills
weren’t exceptional enough to deserve even a biblical mention; Jesus
catered the party but didn’t provide the jams;
Marco Polo could find Xanadu but knew nothing of Roller-disco;
Columbus was too hungry
for greatness
to even stop and listen to the native drums much less
consider
the joy to be found in the jungle; Neil Armstrong thought
of philosophy at that monumental
moment, not the summer of love and the sweet sounds
of the sixties.
Truth of the matter: one&done musicians
are better than Moses, Jesus, Marco Polo, Columbus,
and Neil Armstrong
even
if they were to
combine forces and form a super group. There is Dave
Roberts, “Beat Master
D”, who invented the band and lays down the law
on the drums like Moses after seeing the golden calf.
There is Bass man Joe Mejia, the “Rockin’ Thunder”,
who, like Marco Polo, travels far and wide to create
exotic grooves. There is Reba Brewer, “Lady Magic
Fingers” on the keyboard, performing
sonic miracles like Jesus on a Sunday. There is Randy
Brown, the “Cryptic
Flash”, whose techno inspired guitar tones and
riffs are like a fierce space odyssey that could make
Neal Armstrong retreat on behalf of humanity.
There is Salvador Caranza, “The Silk”,
whose voice is so sweet and powerful it could wake
Christopher
Columbus
from his
tomb in Seville and
compel him to repent for what he did to native peoples
everywhere.
If besting historical figures isn’t enough for
you, check out the effect all those one hit wonders
will have
on your
libido. It has been said that one
hit wonders are better than Viagra. Let the happy music
nest in your naughty regions and drive you to gyrate
and spasm
like a
monkey
on crystal meth. Let
the sound waves percolate your blood and drive your
soul into a sexy soundgasm. You owe it to yourself:
come to
the next
show
or hire
these epochs for your
next imprtant event; your loins will thank you!
