Paul Rodgers [Free, Bad Company, The Firm, Queen]

June 23, 2020djturk@bellsouth.net

Free was an English rock band formed in London in 1968, best known for their 1970 signature song “All Right Now”. They disbanded in 1973 and lead singer Paul Rodgers went on to become a frontman of the band Bad Company along with Simon Kirke on drums. Lead guitarist Paul Kossoff formed Back Street Crawler in 1975, but died from a pulmonary embolism at the age of 25 in 1976. Bassist Andy Fraser formed Sharks.

The band became famous for their sensational live shows and nonstop touring. However, early studio albums did not sell very well until the release of Fire and Water, which featured the massive hit “All Right Now”. The song helped secure them a place at the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970, where they played to 600,000 people.

By the early 1970s, Free became one of the biggest-selling British blues rock[5][6][7] groups; by the time the band retired in 1973, they had sold more than 20 million albums around the world and had played more than 700 arena and festival concerts. “All Right Now” remains a rock staple and has been entered in ASCAP’s “One Million” airplay singles club.

Lalena – Dale James [Cover]

November 28, 2014Dale James

 

Widely considered to be about a prostitute, Donovan talked about this song at a 2004 event to promote his album Beat Café. He explained that “Lalena” is a composite title made up from the name of the German actress Lotte Lenya, who was the wife of the songwriter Bertolt Brecht, who along with Kurt Weill composed the play The Threepenny Opera, which starred Lenya as the prostitute Jenny Diver. (Listen for Lenya’s name in Bobby Darin’s version of “Mack The Knife).

Said Donovan: “I was fascinated with The Threepenny Opera as a socially conscious musical, so when I saw the movie version with Lotte Lenya I thought, OK, she’s a streetwalker, but in the history of the world, in all nations women have taken on various roles from priestess to whore to mother to maiden to wife. This guise of sexual power is very prominent, and therein I saw the plight of the character: ‘That’s your lot in life, Lalena/Can’t blame ya, Lalena.’ Women have roles thrust upon them and make the best they can out of them, so I’m describing the character Lotte Lenya is playing and a few other women I’ve seen during my life, but it’s a composite character of women who are outcasts on the edge of society: Bohemia.”
