Adem\u00e1s, el LP es legendario en un sentido literal: hasta hace poco, pocos coleccionistas sab\u00edan realmente que exist\u00eda. \u00bfY Roger Salloom? Imag\u00ednese a Jack Kerouac, John Belushi, Lord Buckley y Lenny Bruce, luego agregue a Leadbelly, Jimmy Reed, Lonnie Johnson y Geoff Muldaur&#8230; todos juntos en una sola persona, y tendr\u00e1 una visi\u00f3n del poeta, cantautor Roger Salloom.<br \/>Salloom estaba en el centro de la escena psicod\u00e9lica de San Francisco de los a\u00f1os 60, tocando el Fillmore con Santana, Van Morrison, BB King y Procul Harum. En la d\u00e9cada de 1970 se mud\u00f3 a Nashville para dedicarse a escribir canciones, luego desapareci\u00f3 durante dos d\u00e9cadas para formar una familia como padre soltero y dibujante de tiras c\u00f3micas publicadas en diarios. Hay una historia aqu\u00ed. Una historia tan intrigante que atrajo a un cineasta galardonado a hacer una pel\u00edcula sobre el tema. \u00abSo Glad I Made It, la saga de Roger Salloom el mejor compositor desconocido de Estados Unidos\u00bb, gan\u00f3 seis premios, estuvo en la boleta de los Grammy de 2006 y recibi\u00f3 excelentes cr\u00edticas en todo Estados Unidos. <br \/>Retrocedamos: en Bloomington, IN, Roger form\u00f3 Salloom , Sinclair y Mother Bear. Se mudaron a San Francisco en 1967 y actuaron en lugares como The Carousel, The Fillmore y The Avalon Ballroom junto a sus contempor\u00e1neos Santana, Procol Harum y BB King. Cuando el fundador de Chess Records, Marshall Chess, busc\u00f3 ampliar la lista del sello, contrat\u00f3 a Salloom, Sinclair y Mother Bear; esto result\u00f3 en dos \u00e1lbumes lanzados en Cadet\/Concept. Cuando Mother Bear entr\u00f3 en una hibernaci\u00f3n prolongada, Salloom y el col\u00edder Robin Sinclair encontraron un mayor \u00e9xito en Nashville con grupo Area Code 615. Roger cre\u00f3 una extensa familia de compa\u00f1eros artistas mientras estaba en Nashville que inclu\u00eda a Guy Clark, Rodney Crowell y Richard Dobbins. M\u00e1s tarde, como padre soltero, Salloom tuvo una vida desafiante durante la d\u00e9cada de 1980. Despu\u00e9s de establecerse en Northampton, MA, continu\u00f3 componiendo, grabando y tocando con artistas como The Band, John Prine, Jonathan Edwards, Jerry Jeff Walker, The BoDeans, Joan Armatrading y Leon Russell.<br \/>Pero antes de todo eso, Salloom estaba en Indiana, actuando en una cafeter\u00eda llamada The Owl. \u00abThe City in an Owl&#8217;s Eye\u00bb es de ese per\u00edodo (1967) y es sencillamente brillante. La mayor parte del LP es Salloom, que presenta un budismo hippie, un homenaje drone inspirado en el raga indio, apropiado para la \u00e9poca, al que todo es nada. Totalmente Una gran parte de la cara dos es un collage psicod\u00e9lico de voz y sonido de un grupo llamado Vest Pocket Players. Un poco de investigaci\u00f3n revela que Kevin Kline (s\u00ed, el actor), de 19 a\u00f1os, era parte de ese grupo. Todos los dem\u00e1s son un misterio. Void Records dice: \u00abHabl\u00e9 con Salloom, quien parec\u00eda no recordar lo que acababa de decir, y mucho menos qui\u00e9n m\u00e1s estaba involucrado en la grabaci\u00f3n, o ese grupo. Las entrevistas con Kline han confirmado su participaci\u00f3n, pero lamentablemente actualmente no me devuelve las llamadas y, por lo tanto, no he podido averiguar nada m\u00e1s\u00bb. \u00abRoger William Salloom: un alma neur\u00f3tica y gentil que entreteje sus experiencias, ideas y emociones en canciones simples pero profundas, lo suficientemente hermosas como para rivalizar con su contagiosa sonrisa\u00bb. &#8212; Joanne Casale, Motiff<br \/>Una reedici\u00f3n leg\u00edtima de 375 copias en vinilo negro.

Furthermore, the LP is legendary in a literal sense: until recently, few collectors really even knew it truly existed. And Roger Salloom? imagine Jack Kerouac, John Belushi, Lord Buckley, and Lenny Bruce, then throw in Leadbelly, Jimmy Reed, Lonnie Johnson, and Geoff Muldaur... all rolled into one person, and you have a glimpse of poet, singer-songwriter Roger Salloom.Salloom was in the center of the 1960s San Francisco psychedelic scene, playing the Fillmore with Santana, Van Morrison, BB King and Procul Harum. In the 1970s he moved to Nashville to pursue songwriting, then disappeared for two decades to raise a family as a single parent and draw a syndicated cartoon. There is a story here. A story so intriguing that it enticed an award-winning filmmaker to make a film about the subject. So Glad I Made It, the Saga of Roger Salloom, America's Best Unknown Songwriter, won six awards, was on the 2006 Grammy ballot, and received rave reviews across the U.S.Let's back up: in Bloomington, IN, Roger formed Salloom, Sinclair and Mother Bear. Moving to San Francisco in 1967, they performed in venues such as The Carousel, The Fillmore and The Avalon Ballroom alongside contemporaries Santana, Procol Harum and BB King. When Chess Records founder Marshall Chess sought to broaden the label's roster, he signed Salloom, Sinclair and Mother Bear; this resulted in two albums released on Cadet\/Concept. When Mother Bear went into extended hibernation, Salloom and co-leader Robin Sinclair found further success in Nashville with Area Code 615. Roger created an extended family of artist peers while in Nashville that included Guy Clark, Rodney Crowell and Richard Dobbins. Later, as a single Dad, Salloom had a challenging life throughout the 1980's. After settling in Northampton, MA, he continued songwriting, recording and playing with artists such as The Band, John Prine, Jonathan Edwards, Jerry Jeff Walker, The BoDeans, Joan Armatrading and Leon Russell.But before all that, Salloom was in Indiana, performing at a coffee house called The Owl. \"The City in an Owl's Eye\" is from that period (1967) -- and it is simply brilliant. Most of the LP is Salloom, presenting a Hippie Buddhism, era-appropriate, Indian raga-inspired droney homage to everything being nothing. Totally out there. A large portion of side two is a psychedelic voice\/sound collage from a group called the Vest Pocket Players. A fair bit of digging reveals that a 19-year-old Kevin Kline (yes, the actor) was part of that group. Everyone else is a mystery.
