The Brian Setzer Orchestra
The Brian Setzer Orchestra on the TD Stage

Here's a little bit of heresy for you: Montreal International Jazz Festival organizers might say they set the bar high last year by getting Stevie Wonder to preside over their opening blowout, but the Brian Setzer Orchestra proved themselves to be a far more appropriate choice to stir up 150,000 festivalgoers than the Motown legend. Last night, Setzer and his 17 rocking co-conspirators topped Wonder's uneven marathon performance last year in every conceivable way.
It was an event for the books, as Setzer and band delivered a consistently exciting set, defined by blistering guitar and horn hijinx, on the TD stage of the Place des Festivals. The weather was perfect, the showmanship at its peak, the sound was superb and the staging --- firework arc motifs dominating the lighthing and 50s-styled dancers spotlighted in the crowd --- eye-popping.
Colleagues John Griffin and Mark Lepage have already reported on the show (read their account here), so I needn't go into huge detail. What I do want to mention is how a few things Setzer yesterday during a brief press conference at La Maison du Festival, the jazz fest's headquarters, echoed in my head as I watched him rock the big outdoor stage like it's never been rocked.
For starters, it's a stunner to see 18 musicians rock so hard, as they did repeatedly --- notably on manic chuggers like Trouble Train and the deathless, highly appropriate Rock This Town. Other large ensembles have tried and failed, by virtue of their sheer size. Asked about that, Setzer had a disarmingly simple answer. "Most big bands don't really approach it from the guitar point of view," he said. "And the guitar leads the orchestra, so it's gonna rock, because that's what I do," he said.
Which brings us to Setzer's guitar playing. Whether buzzing it up on his Gretsch hollowbody during Honey Man (a rockabilly Flight of the Bumblebee) or burning up the fretboard on the Santo and Johnny classic Sleepwalk, with the orchestra carrying the melody, Setzer's inventiveness on the instrument somehow never gets talked about enough.
During the press conference, Setzer gave some credit to his first guitar teacher, an old Italian gent his parents picked out of the phone book. "Thank God I got him, because he would do things that no one else would do," Setzer said. "He would pick me up at my Little League game, sit there and wait."
Eventually, the baseball games were overtaken by rock n' roll. Setzer's idol was Eddie Cochran. "He's my greatest inspiration," Setzer said yesterday. "When I saw a picture of Eddie Cochran, I said `Wow! I want to look like that guy!' I thought he was the coolest thing. And when I heard his music, it was like a double knockout punch." When he later heard his father sing along with the Beatles' version of Honey Don't, Setzer said, he discovered it was a Carl Perkins song and that much of the early Beatles and Rolling Stones records were rockabilly inspired.
The orchestra's legendary appearance at the 1995 Montreal International Jazz Festival also came up when Setzer met the press. "That first Montreal show was magic," he said. "We really had something to prove, and if we didn't prove it, the band would fall apart, because it's so big."
At that point, he said they were selling a new musical idea. "The big band era died and rock n' roll was born, so the two never got to meet," he said. "And where it's led now ... there's no one more surprised than I am."

Tony PAGANO QUARTET à Lyon
Tony PAGANO QUARTET à Lyon
Le 29 mai 2009 au Périscope.
A Lyon, le Périscope s’installe peu à peu comme un lieu incontournable du jazz. Suite à des problèmes techniques, nous n’avons pu relater dans ces colonnes le concert du nouveau quartet du saxophoniste Eric Prost avec Bruno Ruder au piano, Jérôme Regard à la contrebasse et Stéphane Foucher à la batterie. Nous aurons l’occasion de reparler d’eux. C’est Stéphane Foucher qui fait le lien avec le sujet du jour puisqu’il apparaissait ce 29 mai dernier dans le quartet de Tony Pagano en compagnie de François Gallix à la contrebasse et Etienne Deconfin au piano.
Formé au classique et au jazz, Tony Pagano a tout au long de sa carrière accompagné son lot de pointures : Ella Fitzgerald, les frères Brecker, Buddy Montgomery, Herbie Hancock, etc, bref un curriculum long comme la route 66, aller-retour. Installé en France depuis une vingtaine d’années, il continue à souffler dans son ténor sans se soucier du temps qui passe. L’autre soir au Périscope, il a conquis le public par son talent et sa générosité dans un style post-coltranien extrêmement incisif. Des chorus et des improvisations enflammés sur un répertoire personnel et des reprises de grands maîtres convoqués pour l’occasion, Coltrane, Henderson, Coleman, soutenus par un trio brillant, ont emporté l’affaire en moins de temps qu’il n’en faut pour lire cette phrase. Un souffle exceptionnel, parfaitement maîtrisé, une sonorité chaleureuse comme une raucité habitée, ont démontré que le jazz est un état d’esprit qui se contrefout de l’âge pour ce jeune homme qui avoue 60 ans d’écart avec son pianiste tout juste majeur.
A propos d’Étienne Deconfin d’ailleurs, gageons que son avenir sera florissant tant son aisance est grande face au clavier. Tony Pagano, en maître serein, à laissé au trio l’espace nécessaire pour que chaque musicien puisse développer son discours. La puissance brute de la paire Gallix / Foucher a fait merveille dans ce contexte explosif. C’était du jazz, ce soir-là, de la plus belle espèce, "un soir au club" à l’ancienne, avec une urgence : celle de tutoyer le ciel du bout de la note pour mieux convaincre et se convaincre qu’une vie de jazz puise au meilleur de l’humain sa justesse et son désir de sublimation.
Tony Pagano dit qu’il essaie de tomber amoureux de chaque note qu’il joue. Il dit aussi que la musique est la lumière. Sur scène, il le prouve. Respect.

Le rôle principale est tenu par un formidable johnny Deep dans le rôle d'un Greaser de la ville de Baltimore durant les fifties, à noter aussi la présence des chanteurs de rock Iggy Pop (The Stooges) et Debbie Harry (Blondie) et de Traci Lords (actrice porno). Le film met en évidence la culture Hepcat qui se développera durant les 1990's dans les festivals de Rockabilly et rock n'roll (du type d' Hemsby Rock n'roll festival) dans le monde entier sorte de retour au fifties en réaction au Psychobillies et au Teddy Boys. Le film est réalisé sous la forme d'une comédie musicale. Une partie de cette BO est donc composé de titres chantés par les acteurs dans le film, ceux chantés (en Playbach) par Johnny Deep dans le film sont en réalité interpréttés par James Intfield (le fils de Ricky Nelson) nous trouvons quattre néorockabilly superbes King Cry-baby, Doin' time from bein' young et High school hellcats et un trés bon Doo wop Teardrops are falling les titres chantés par la petit amie de Cry Baby sont interpretté par Rachel Sweet on trouve une belle ballade teenrock A Teenage Prayer et un rhythm and blues au style début sixties Please mr Jailer, le groupe vocal formé par des garçons issus des beaux quartiers (les méchants) interprette deux trés belles covers de doo wop fifties (en réalité chanté par Baldwin and the Wiffles) Sh boom (des Chords) et Mister Sandman (popularisé par les Chordettes).
