Well, well, well! Thanks for posting Dave! The only prob is that it's at Turnmills! Yeuch! I might have to do it though...

On Saturday 27th August Blaze make a rare UK performance as they make their debut at Turnmills. Blaze's contribution to House music is epic boasting one of the most impressive bodies of production spanning from Lisa Stansfields' pop dance hit "People Hold On" to their own classic "Can't Win for Losing" they have been at the forefront of the house music. Blaze aka Josh Milan, Kevin Hedge and Chris Herbert started writing music together in 1984. Childhood friends who met at their local church choir, Chris was a vocalist who wanted to record, Josh was a natural musician who played with the church choir and Kevin was a DJ who spun locally at parties around their native Newark, N.J. The three decided to form a production team after Chris introduced Josh and Kevin and encouraged them to became a recording group. Blaze has influences that run from Stevie Wonder to James Taylor to John Coltrane and beyond. But it is the deeply soulful melodies, their blend of Afro, Jazz, Soul and Gospel added with, the positive world view in their lyrics, influenced heavily by their childhood heroes Earth, Wind & Fire. While their older friends danced the night away in NY clubs like Zanzibar and the Paradise Garage, Blaze began to lay down the prototype of their sound assimilating the music of the day and adding a more electronic and fundamentally R&B based spine. With "DJ" Kevin at the controls, Josh "the piano man" on the synthesizer and the "lead vocal" stylings of Chris, they turned out song after song for other artist and producers to record. Some included "This Time" by Colonel Abrams knock off Hunter Hayes, "One Man" by Chanelle and "Reachin' " by Phase II. The three ultimately signed their first record deal with the newly formed Quark records in '85, producing three major club hits of the time; "Whatcha Gonna Do", "If You Should Need A Friend" and "Can't Win For Losing". After 19 years on the scene Milan and Hedge are still producing relevant hits today as they did back in '85. In their own words they see themselves as " tools being used by the universe helping to bring lyrical messages and melodies to the world, music is communication. Ideas come to us from the spirit of creation.". Over the past year they have come out of their self imposed exile to in NY for some exclusive dates and Turnmills represents the last time to catch Blaze this year! Joining Blaze is another of New York's musical luminaries Kenny Dope Gonzalez. Together with recording partner Louie Vega there has been no greater presence in house music for over a decade. As producers, their style and stunning polished production saw them remixing dance acts and pop starts alike, utilising their soulful DJing style, whilst as individuals their DJ performances continue to enthral crowds. Whilst Louie comes from a soulful, Kenny's versatility is his talent. Fusing dirty Chicago and Hip-Hop beats to his house music sound with sunning technical ability, Kenny is a Master at Work. Get down for this monumental sound clash. Cheers BT

Seasons of love great track !! Lovelee dae (I really like the beloved vocal mix :-)) ...and many more that I can't recall at the moment... i like the bill withers original version better raw Ahem! It's a totally different song - it's not a cover version of 'Lovely Day' by Bill Withers (although it sorta borrows the title). Sorry if someone already pointed out. The Beloved version is sweet (although the original is still my favourite.) Also check the Freaks Radioactive Dub. Approriately sick! Errrm, on a Blaze/Shelter tip, yesterday I found 'The Groove Project' by Nick Jones on Shelter. Actually from '97, but IINM the copies currently circulating are new pressings. If you like jazz keys and you like house and you like Nord, have a listen. I like this producer a lot. k
Re: (313) Blaze
'Gloria Muse' is easilly my favorite Blaze track. Otto and I each pooed ourselves both of the two times Ron Trent played it @ DEMF '02, soon before it was released. Also, if you have the opportunity to catch one of their rare live performances, don't sleep. Was lucky enough to see that in NYC this May. Really excellent, if not the most stunning 'liveness'.

"Keeping My Mind" is record number one on my wants list. I agree, it's strange Blaze have become popular now that they're not quite as on it as they were. Still, they come out with some quality cuts, and I think "Natural Blaze" was their best album. I don't have much to add to the recommendations, of early stuff my favourite's "Sometimes Love" by Jerry Edwards on Easy St. I don't know why this wasn't on either of those "Pure Blaze" compilations?! "If You Should Need A Friend" and "Reaching" stand out from then, too. They really got going in the period up to '94, I'd say, with the stuff on Sumo, Polar etc. Mid Nineties stuff like Debbie Pender, with those organ basslines, helped define that UK garage sound (for better or for worse), and "Moonwalk" is perhaps my favourite Blaze record ever. It'll be tracks like these they'll be remembered for, I imagine, rather than the likes of "Star Suite". I think innovative house probably largely lies elsewhere these days.

RE: (313) blaze
Well brother, you got me flabbergasted now! Another Blaze album that I don't know of? That's the surprise of the day! W There's also an LP in '89 (yes, an LP but wait) called 'Paradise Regained'. In fact, it purports to be a compilation (it is, kind of) featuring different artists but it's really Blaze under about ten different psuedonym's feat. various vocalists.

RE: (313) blaze
If you want to learn how Blaze has progressed throughout these last decades, try to get a hold of Pure Blaze 1 and 2 on Easy Street Records. 2 slices / 8 tracks each. PB 1 is early house stuff, PB 2 is more recent and includes Delacy's "Hideaway" among other fine songs. Recommended! http://www.discogs.com/release/8945 http://www.discogs.com/release/57071 Also, Giant Step recordings uses Blaze a lot for remixes. Check it out!

RE: (313) blaze
Second those who said '25 Years Later' on Motown. Indeed it was their first LP, but you look for a discography and it's hard because they've simply done so much, including remixes (maybe excluding) we could be over a hundred. 'Basic Blaze' is ace. 'My Beat' *is* deep (to me). Can't say 'I Remember House' is their finest moment but the LP 'Spiritually Speaking' is overall v good (imo). If you can find them, two older (c.89) slices of quality are Phase II - 'Reachin'' & Phase II 'It's A Mystery'. There's also an LP in '89 (yes, an LP but wait) called 'Paradise Regained'. In fact, it purports to be a compilation (it is, kind of) featuring different artists but it's really Blaze under about ten different psuedonym's feat. various vocalists.

most essential is their first album, 25 years later on motown, one of the best house albums of all time, only journey with the lonely from lil' louis and the world can be compared to this one.

Re: (313) blaze
I'm pretty much impressed by anything they've done. "Spiritually Speaking" on Slip & Slide, their latest album is very nice, kind of "Earth, Wind & Fire" sounding at times. Don't have any of their other albums, but I am searching for them.

RE: [313] blaze
Apparently it's already found its way onto the net. The bits I've heard are really good. There's some tracks with more of a traditional jazz structure than I've heard from Blaze before, or maybe just more live musicians. Some of it is a little too cookie-cutter Blaze deepness with lamentations of the current state of the dance scene that get tiring after awhile IMO, like the track thats getting played here, "Do You Remember House". Don't get me wrong its fantastic, I was just hoping for more. Here's something from Slip 'n' Slide about the bootlegging: "Bastard Bootleggers...MAY THEIR DAUGHTERS GROW FACIAL HAIR.! Hiya Peeps and Peepettes, Sad news has come forward indeed... Blaze's new Album "Spirituall Speaking" is being raped as we speak... I am upset to say the least, but being that a I am a cynic with an optimistic outlook, I see the glass as half full...so Bootleggers, a curse upon your folicles.. Please note all you lovely guardian of right, that SLIP N SLIDE will not be moved...We will still release Blaze come Sept 9..2002...come what may... So all you vanguards of right and justice, please tell the whole world..that we will not be force by Bootleggers to react and release such a gem as "Spiritually Speaking" until it has matured..(Please note ref...to Grolsch" Its not ready yet...").

RE: [313] Blaze - "25 Years Later" - available on CD at . . . . . . .
I agree. 21st century music is a world class place to find stuff. I think I've picked up over half of my Patrick Adams collection from that place at amazingly reasonable prices. And their service is top notch too. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 06, 2002 8:55 AM To: 313@hyperreal.org Subject: [313] Blaze - "25 Years Later" - available on CD at . . . . . . . Greetings Cats! Although it will be difficult, it's not impossible to find Blaze's "25 Years Later" album on vinyl. However, if you check with www.NetSounds.com or www.GEMM.com, you will find a couple of stores who have limited copies of the CD in stock. I would always suggest you begin your search for classics at www.21centurymusic.com (New Jersey, USA). They have one of the best selections of EXTREMELY RARE pieces! The track listing for "25 Years Later" is as follows: We Must All Live Together I Wonder Gonna Make It Work All That I Should Know Lover Man Missing You Get Up So Special Miss My Love You Don't Really Love Me Anything For Your Lovin' Released on Motown Records in 1990 Catalog number (vinyl) MOT-6301 Much respect to Timmy Regisford who was one of the project's executive producers. I hope this helps! peace & respect, TP - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [313] Blaze/Theo P - confused
I haven't checked the site but it sounds like it is the second side of the Live in Detroit tape which *does* start with the end of the track off Blaze's Artful Noyz EP. The next track is Overyohead. If you've got the wrong info off of me, sorry, but the Blaze track starts on side A, so I put it in there on my list. As per usual, email me offlist for a full tracklisting. As for other mixes on the deephouse pages, all the Ron Hardy ones (of course! especially the one where he plays "Catch Me On The Rebound") and the Brian Borden ones (deep, classic disco; check out the one where he plays Roy Ayers' "Chicago") are the ones I keep going back to.

Re: (313) Blaze stuff
Blaze continue to be "the shit" for me, Jason, I'm a HUGE fan of their stuff. Many bands hit their peak and then fall off, but with "My Beat" and other things in the last few years (and obviously "Lovelee Dae"), they've kept it going strong from the old to the new. don 't have a discog. though. andrew duke :) "Batory, Jason" wrote: > Just been listening to: Incognito - Fearless (Blaze Shelter Dub) sweet, and > on Andrew's site: Blaze--If You Should Need A Friend (Friendship mix) (US > Quark/1987), 1987!!

Re: (313) Blaze on Playhouse \ Comments
>Also can anyone comment on the following DJs/Live performances - seeing them >all in the next week!: > >Faze Action (live) Two brothers from the UK, Simon and Robin Lee, who have cut a couple of albums, the latest of which is Moving Cities. Their first album, Plans & Designs, of a few years back had a retro-disco feel, but on their new LP they have diversified into a more eclectic groove based dance-cum-listening music with African vibes, jazz, house, etc, beats. Sounds like another UK neo-Balearic outfit a la Groove Armada to me. I have heard rave reports about their shows. The new LP is nice and listenable but unspectacular to my ears. >CJ Bolland (live) Well, he's a legend in Europe isn't he. I heard great reports about him at Welcome 2000 here in Melbourne on NYE. Nice guy. >Ashley Beedle A legend. One of the original great DJs of the UK house scene - will bring out the cognoscenti. Plays across the board: jazz, soul and house music. Is the man behind the Afro Art label, Black Science Orchestra, Ballistic Brothers, etc. >Have this lot played their shows over east yet? Cyclone? Patrick? Anyone... >anyone? Nah, it's coming up this long weekend. Peace Cyclone
