John Hartman, Doobie Brothers Founding Member And Drummer, Passed Away At The Age Of 72

-
John Hartman, a musician who was instrumental in the formation of the Doobie Brothers and served as the band's original drummer, passed away at the age of 72. On Thursday, the band shared the sad news about Hartman's passing on their official social media pages, describing him as a showman, a great spirit, and a wild spirit. The band stated that they remember John Hartman, who they referred to as "Little John," on this day. During his time with the Doobies, John was known for his free-wheeling personality, extraordinary drumming, and charismatic stage presence. Additionally, he was a close buddy over the course of many years and an essential component of the band's personality! Between the early 1970s and the early 1990s, the musician, who was born and raised in Virginia, participated in a rock band for two separate periods of time. In 1969, Hartman met the band's frontman, Tom Johnston, and, later, finger-picking guitarist Pat Simmons in Northern California. Inspired by their musical chemistry, Hartman decided to form a band. Because of tracks like "Listen to the Music" and "Jesus is Just Alright," the band's second studio album, Toulouse Street, became an instant favorite among fans almost as soon as it was released in 1972. Their first album, which was self-titled and released in 1971, failed to make a significant impact on the charts. The album reached its highest position on the Billboard 200 charts in 1972, where it peaked at No. 21. According to Rolling Stone, Hartman left the band in 1979, after eight studio albums, before the release of their ninth album, One Step Closer, after a tense tour of Japan. This occurred after the band had already released eight albums. Hartman described the situation as one in which everything was disintegrating. Ten years later, in 1989, Hartman returned to the band for the recording of the album Cycles. The following year, in 1991, he recorded the album Brotherhood before leaving the band once more, this time for good, in 1992. In the year 2020, Hartman and the other members of the band who were still alive at the time, including Jeff Skunk Baxter, Michael Hossack, Tom Johnston, Keith Knudsen, Michael McDonald, John McFee, Tiran Porter, and Patrick Simmons, were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

‘I lied to get the part’: Melvyn Hayes on his ‘angry young man’ beginnings – and It Ain’t Half Hot Mum

-
He was tipped to be the next Richard Burton – but ended up as crossdressing Gunner Gloria in the now controversial sitcom. As his breakthrough classic returns to the screen, Hayes looks back One day in 1957, Melvyn Hayes was on the set of a film called Woman in a Dressing Gown when a man sat down next to him. “I was getting paid £5 a day and I’d been on location for three days,” the actor recalls. “All I had to do was walk up to a house and put a newspaper through a letterbox. That was my part. Finished. I said to this bloke, ‘I can’t believe the waste of money on this film. Take me. You could have got a newspaper boy on £1 a day to do what I’m doing.’ Then I said, ‘What do you do then, you lazy bugger?’ And he said, ‘I’m the producer.’” Hayes, now 89, giggles at the memory of the cheek of himself at 23. Back then, £5 a day was a decent whack. His first job in showbiz, in the early 1950s, was as assistant to The Great Masoni, a magician who tasked Hayes with “disappearing twice daily...

The Human Surge 3 review – hopeful odyssey of globe-trotting twentysomethings

-
Eduardo Williams’ opaque sequel follows a group of twentysomethings in Sri Lanka, Peru and Taiwan with a 360-degree VR camera Following his Locarno festival-winning experimental film The Human Surge in 2016 , Argentinian director Eduardo Williams apparently couldn’t be bothered with part two – which doesn’t exist – and skips straight to number three. That’s also the opaque MO with which he operates in this similarly continent-hopping odyssey; a bleary trail of hopeful and restless peregrinations and chat from three groups of twentysomethings in Sri Lanka, Peru and Taiwan, who often stray without warning into each other’s segments while declaring things like: “I want to see maps of nearby regions and listen to the dreams of my crazy friends.” Filmed with a 360-degree VR camera that orbits around these pilgrims, a full-blown digital-age existential crisis seems to be in force here. People bemoan bullshit jobs, parse language disparities, contemplate post-tsunami building methods in Sri...
