American Roots Live Presents the Studio Masters, Volume One

Review by John Pfeiffer, Shoreworld, Aquarian, 9/17/2008

American Showplace Music’s "first project entitled, American Roots Live Presents the Studio Masters, Volume One features four unique tunes from four songwriters of an equal and interesting caliber. Featuring Christine Martucci, Aster Pheonyx, John Powers and of course, Nasty Ned himself rounding out the disc.

American Showplace Music’s intent is to regularly deliver significant new music by significant artists whose musical roots are tapped in yesterday and whose music is born of today.

Aster Pheonyx is first up with her brand of cerebral and mysterious rock, with melodic acoustics, sparse and intelligent electrics, all melding with her intense vocals on gems like "City" and the frenetic intro of "For Only One Night," a Carol King-spiced jam that winds its way effortlessly around her sweet voice.

John Powers kicks in solid next with his first tune "Outside Looking In," a mellow romp across the lonesome highways in his soul. The Neil Young meets Jeff Tweedy vibe of "Nothings Gonna Change You" leaves me looking to see this guy live with a band.

Christine Martucci takes no prisoners, coming right out of the gate with her powerful and intense sound, she reaches far into the music with amazing melodies and smart phrasing on her opener "Outta Here" and her subtle and heartfelt ode to the soldier in "I’m Coming Home," a heartfelt look at the reality she experienced first hand (she was once a soldier herself), this is a song that’s garnering much excitement as we’ll see in the next issue.

Nasty Ned’s up last with his offerings, starting with the jazzy, bluesy shuffle of "Out On the Town." Nasty Ned does his thang here with hipness ala John Lee Hooker or Dylan’s latest group of players. Mellow electrics and Popper-vibed harmonicas brings me back to a Mississippi catfish fry on a hot summer day. Switching gears Nasty Ned buys the drinks for us all on the 60’s country tinge of "Not a Married Man", a little number [that] swings ala The Band or Croce and boasts some great electric guitar work (who is that guy?) and of course strong choruses.

A great first disc from these area stars."

ARL Roots Review 86

American Roots Live 86 and Writers in Raritan in the week leading up to this Christmas holiday was full of comfort and joy, new and old friends - and lots of love.

Perhaps as close as we'll get to living inside a Courier & Ives print in this year of 2007.

Our new friend "E" from Miami, Florida was the center piece in this holiday tapestry. "E", (above, pic:win) exuded brotherhood and goodwill during his showcase performance and had us riveted as he sang of warmth and love, rivers of honey, forgiveness and tolerance in his tremendously rich and authentic blues voice. Except for the muted bling-tone of some one's pocketed text messenger, it was "E's" heartfelt performance and a silent night.

If you weren't there - you should have been.

Many made the pilgrimage to ARL and WiR this week as if filled with anticipation of tiny hoofs on a roof-top or just filled with party spirit and seeking an outlet to let loose. What ever you came looking for - we had it.

Down to the mini marshmallows for your hot cocoa.

John Powers revved us up with his unforgettable songs, Kerry Anderson held the whole world in her hand, Corey Small thumped and hammered home his wonderful creations, Dennis Macarone reminded me of sharing the stage with the Chiffons in 1966, Joe Cerisano of Trans-Siberian Orchestra sang of fathers and sons, Mace Gill gave us Blind Willie Johnson, Mimi Nowak brought the house down, Johnny Charles ripped us all a new one, JR Bradfield smiled and accommodated, John Breen sang Christmas carols with his ukelelee... I think the only thing missing was the partridge and the pear tree.

Our playlist recognizes: JR Bradfield, Ed Pampani, "E", Mace Gill, Corey Small, Robert Zee, Johnny Charles, Kim Brewer, Tommy Toye, Hershall Dow, Mordechai Jones, Carlo Trentacosta, Keith Autoncunas, Randy Marinelli, Doug Ivey, Tim Ludwig, Johnny Thompson, Joe Cerisano, Randy Smith, Chris O'Sullivan, Mimi Nowak, Bob Giglio, Ed Avilia, Ron Seibert, John Breen, Snakeman Runyan, The No Names, JW & the Honky Tonk Buicks, Gene Goodman, Carl Marcantonio, Rich Keorner, Roy Macanamara, Dennis Macarone, John Powers, Kerry Anderson and Peter Prasa.

As we revel in the spirit of this holiday season and reflect back on a year of circumstance and accomplishment let us look forward toward the future. Our future together as friends, our future as individuals, as a society, as a world and let us be happy, thankful and joyous, and please, let us never forget the glue that holds us all together - the music, sweet music, let there be music everywhere.

Thanks to all who give it life and longevity. Thanks to Win and EP. And bless you all.

Merry Christmas to us all - everyone.

Keeping it real,

Ned

ARL Roots Review 77

Your bed's on fire! Your bed's on fire!

That's what I've been saying to my friend Copa - the multi-instrumentalist best known as the keyboard player in my earliest bands, Shadowfax and R Band and a more recent Famous Chili Dogs - for as long as I can remember, because he played so hot. At least I think that's why I always said that.

Copa and I spent a lot of time together. In the late 70's we traveled to places like Houma, Louisiana and Hafuf, Saudi Arabia and almost everywhere in between - in bands that had little to do with us - then spent most of the early 80's writing songs and recording comedy skits in his home studio behind gallons of producer juice and piles of other stuff.

Well, Copa, who now lives about a hundred miles south of here, made it up to American Roots Live 77 at Orphan Annie's last week to play with us all. He brought his keyboards, but spent the night burning up the bass - I told you he was hot - and we loved it as much as he did, as he made many new friends. Thanks Cope.

Last week was full of great players as we welcomed back our old ARL friends Jimmy Somma and Tommy Hayes and Peter Malliss - and some old favorite regulars like Johnny Charles and Evil Dick of the Congregation.

And we gave away 6 pairs of tickets to see Johnny Winter and Edgar Winter in concert at the Starland Ballroom compliments of BluezKid. Everybody was smilin' big time!

We lit up the northern sky at 77 as we have many times at ARL and just as we'll do again this Thursday night and ALL DAY Sunday, October 21st at our "Roots Rockin' Riders, Bikers' Benefit for Autism. Doors open at 12N, music starts at 2pm and goes til midnight featuring Johnny Thompson at 2pm, Phil 'n the Blanks 3pm, The Congregation 4pm, Nasty Ned & the Dogs 5pm, The Jerry Lanza Band 6pm, Johnny Charles & the Straight 8 Blues Kings 7pm, Katmandu at 8pm and then an American Roots Live All Star Jam the rest of the way - and I'm pretty sure we're going to have some "girl power" coming!

77's playlist read: JR Bradfield, John Powers, Copa, Jimmy Somma, Tommy Hayes, Mimi Nowak, Ed Pampani, Ron Seibert, Bobby Z, Robert Zee, Hershall Dow, Mordichai, Dave Alles, Ed Avilia, Randy Marinelli, Keith Autocunas, Lisa Batruch, Joe Salerno, Frank Ceruli, Joe DeRogatis, Phil Leibergall, Sandra Lynne, Molly, Evil Dick, Dennis Grove, Tommy Toye, Jeff Frank, Sticks Obremski, Vinnie Capodice, Tim Ludwig, Peter Malliss, Amy Franza, Tony Prochilo, Bones Sanford, Johnny Charles, Johnny Thompson, Carlo Trentacosta, Gene Gagliardi, Retox, Carl Marcantonio, Chaz, Ron Michaels, Arlene Schar, Rob Bianco, Rich Keorner and Vinni Meleto.

Thanks to all who make American Roots Live work week after week: Orphan Annie's Rick, Karin, Joe, Bradfield, Powers, Mimi and Ed and Win for their support and photographs. (Due to a misfunction in Blogger today there are no pictures here, sorry)

See you soon again.

Keeping it real,

Ned

P.S. Tonight, Wednesday October 17th is opening night of Writers in Raritan, our new singer-songwriter show at DeCicco's featuring Robert Ross, John Powers, The Wiliamzboy, Bruce Jepson and Peter Prasa - please check it out at Writers in Raritan

ARL Roots Review 74

Wow! With over 30 musicians and bands on the 74 playlist, American Roots Live with Nasty Ned proved again why it is far and away the premiere open mic celebration anywhere.

Both nights were filled with incredible music by such notables as John Powers, Johnny Charles (pic), Dean Schot, Arne Englund, our new friends from Toronto, Canada, touring band; Vanderpark and many more.

For six years now, Vanderpark has been creating a buzz above the border by playing everywhere they can. They've also showed off their songwriting savvy, tight harmonies and serious musicianship opening shows for the legendary Little Feet across the great north as well as playing with the Spin Doctors and others.


Now on tour in the states, we were fortunate enough to be treated to a Vanderpark performance when Dave, Marcus, Al and Hanaya took time from the long road to stop in at ARL last week. If you haven't heard of Vanderpark yet, you will.

There is an undeniable dynamic that exists between its members making a Vanderpark show easy and refreshing. With three show dates left in the US including Cincinnati and Cleveland before returning to Toronto to celebrate their CD release party at the famed El Mocambo, try to catch Vanderpark whenever and where ever you can. Their music is intelligent, accessible and it rocks, and it's available from iTunes, Napster and on the band's myspace page - go get you some.

ARL 74's playlist read: John Powers, JR Bradfield, Ed Pampani, Mimi Nowak, Len DePiano, Randy Marinelli, Robert Zee, Carlo Trentacosta, Keith Autocunas, Lisa Batruch, Johnny Charles, Cleaver June; Lisa, Jeri and Lucky, Chaz, Gene Gigliardi, Carl Marcantonio, Bob Giglio, Frank Cerulli, Vanderpark, Tommy Toye, Hershall Dow, Vinnie Capodice, Sticks Obremski, Bill LaClaire, Roy Macnamara, Arne Englund, Dean Schot and Rich Koerner.






Thanks to all who make ARL possible week after week and please try to come to our benefit for autism on October 21 - see poster below.

See you soon.

Keeping it real,

Ned

ARL Roots Review 72

If you missed week 72 of American Roots Live with Nasty Ned, you missed some of the most honest, young performances of individual roots styles you may've ever seen or heard... anywhere.

First, the long-awaited arrival of Smokestack the Foothill Fury, from north Georgia, was nothing less than inspiring and entertaining.

Full of fury, like a rolling and tumbling ball of energy, Smokestack played raw, down-from-the-hills blues. A refreshing slap in the face to pretentious, over-produced pop.

Here's a back view of his home-made, one-man-band-contraption and guitar. (tip-bucket normally hangs in front.) He plucked, strumed and slid all over that guitar attacking the neck from below and over top. With wailing vocals and kicking feet, Smokestack the Foothill Fury is a crowd pleaser and authentic bluesman.

In his own words he is carrying the torch for a music that he loves and encompassing the very feeling of what good ole' blues is all about.

We are proud to have presented him on our stage and look forward to his return. He's coming back, maybe as early as next week after a swing through New England and Nova Scotia. Keep an eye out.

Then, we were thrilled to welcome back our friend Johnny Thompson, one of the smoothest, most talented young blues guitarists in New Jersey.

We're used to hearing Johnny burn it up on the electric guitar, but were far from disappointed by his flawless, enthusiastic set of acoustic pickin' and singin'. At just 22 years of age Johnny Thompson is facing sunny horizons.

We look forward to his return very soon.

Hershall Dow, with a sound and presence as big as Texas was a crowd favorite twice at ARL 72. His "up yours" outlaw-country swagger set the tone aptly for his witty, often humorous songs.

At this pace good 'ol Hershall may become an American Roots Live all star, too.


All totalled, number 72 featured 25 unique individual musicians and singers - one for the first time and one for the 100th.

Our playlist read: Smokestack the Foothill Fury, Johnny Thompson, Hershall Dow, JR Bradfield, John Powers, Ed Pampani, Mimi Nowak, Keith Autocunas, Len DePiano, Mike Carroll, Lisa Batruch, Ron Seibert, Randy Marinelli, Rich Peterson, Frank Cerulli, Paul Obremski, Ed Avilia, Carl Marcantonio, Rich Koerner, Joe Salerno, Tommy Toye, Gene Gigliardi, Chaz, and drummer Adam Pliss.

Thanks to Orphan Annie's, Rick, Karin, Kate and our photographers; Ed and Win.

See you soon.

Keeping it real,

Ned

PS - Happy belated birthday to our dear, departed brother Bernie Brausewetter 9/10/07

ARL Roots Review 70

American Roots Live with Nasty Ned is not only about the music - it's also about the people. Those special people who make the music on our stage every Thursday and Sunday. Those passionate about the music we promote to preserve.

And it's about the vibe those people put out. Mimi Nowak is one of those people.

She is a talented singer who is out-going, fun loving and enthusiastic - all about the show - all about learning, sharing and expanding her abilities - and she puts out that good vibe.

Mimi Nowak is an American Roots Live All Star and we're proud to call her our friend.

Her autograph is among other ARL All Stars' autographs on the All Stars signature guitar we're raffling off at the end of the summer to help raise money for new stage equipment.

Only $3 a chance, two chances for $5 and five chances for $10, so please give yourself a chance (or chances) to win this awesome one-of-a-kind, signature guitar when you come out to American Roots Live. It's not a toy, it's a quality Austin electric guitar and a real collector's item. Johnny Charles plays one exactly like it and makes it sing when he performs.

So, if you win, you don't have to hang it on the wall if you don't want to. You can plug it in and jam on it.

Johnny Charles' autograph is on this guitar as are other ARL All Stars; John Powers, JR Bradfield, Snakeman Runyan, Len DePiano, Nancy Coletti, HoneyBoy Dupree, Lee Fink, Steve Pozz, Chuck Wegman, Evil Dick, Rob Fraser, Jamo Flynn, yours truly and many, many, many more.

And speaking of winning a guitar - Orphan Annie's is giving away a six string acoustic guitar at American Roots Live 71 this Sunday night, September 2nd compliments of Heineken - be there!.

Winning the Heineken guitar is super easy, too. All you have to do for a good chance to win is show up, buy a coke or a beer or anything from the bar and you'll be given a numbered raffle ticket. And you'll be given a guitar raffle ticket every time you purchase ANYTHING - all night long- a drink a burger a coke a bag of chips - anything!

Around 12 O'clock we'll draw the winning number and somebody will go home with that guitar. Pretty cool huh? I think so.

Last week's ARL playlist included a very talented 16 year old guitar protege of John Powers named Matt Stelljes. If you were there, you caught a pretty cool performance by the youngster. If you missed it, don't fret - Matt promised to come back again soon.

The entire ARL 70 playlist read: Matt Stelljes, John Powers, JR Bradfield, Len DePiano, Bones Sandford, Mimi Nowak, Phil Leibergall, Ed Pampani, Randy Marinelli, Corey Small, Chris O'Sullivan, Chet Smith, Ed Avilia, Don Howland, Keith Autocunas, Lisa Batruch, Ron Seibert, Rich Peterson, Doug Deittmann, Steve Klem, Kate Weber, Mark Weber, John Caruanna, Mike from Bassboards Blues Band, Chaz, Joe Salerno, Gene Goodman, Garry Hodgson, John Breen, Bob Giglio and our resident singing bartender, young Joe DeRogatis.

A great time was had by all - why not join us next time?

Thanks to all the usual suspects for making it happen. We encourage you to support live music where ever it is played and we hope to see you again this week at American Roots Live 71.

Keeping it real,

Ned

ARL Roots Review 68

(Review)
The BluezKid and me are always at odds over the terms "open mic" and "open jam".

He doesn't like one and I don't care for the other, especially when it comes to describing American Roots Live with Nasty Ned; the premier, equal opportunity celebration of roots music, recognizing Jazz, Blues, Country, Rock&Roll, R&B, Rock, Bluegrass, Folk, Gospel, Soul, BeeBop, Dixieland, Zydeco, Cajun, Native and everything in between that came before... See?

American Roots Live is open to all but is much more than an open-mic or an open-jam.

ARL's aim is to preserve and promote roots music with equal opportunity celebrations that are run like shows and in effect are showcases where the musician who graces the stage is promoted!

That's partly why I'm always spouting, "there is no other show like it anywhere!"

ARL is the twice weekly live music event where you can hear great music with your dinner - then, if you are a musician, play for an enthusiastic audience after dinner - and ARL is where parents can bring their youngsters to listen or to perform live music on stage with professional musicians.

American Roots Live is also an event where fans, musicians and youngsters can win prizes like classic roots music CDs, local artist's CDs, national music magazines, autographed Hohner harmonicas, delicious baked goods (yes, cookies and donuts) and even All Stars autographed electric guitars!

Also the aim of ARL is to rejuvenate an ever-shrinking "live music scene" by bringing music into venues on nights other than Fridays and Saturdays - bringing attention to "LIVE" music - and waging a fair fight against Karaoke, bad DJs, Texas Hold 'ems, Jello wrestling and other culturally deficient activities.

ARL encourages everyone to support live music whenever and where ever it is performed.

We commend our brother Len DePiano and good friends Dean Shott and Todd Wolfe for creating other live music opportunities for musicians - and ARL recognizes other live music "open sessions" popping up in other areas across the state and around the country.

Go! It's all about the music.

Robert Zee knows it.

Zee knows it's about playing it live, having fun with it and sharing the roots of the music with kids.

The music is the heartbeat of our culture.

We can't forget it.

American Roots Live 68 at Orphan Annie's in Stirling, NJ was another great two nights of, well... all that I've been talking about.

Come out and see for yourself. There really is no other show like it anywhere.

ARL 68's playlist read: Johnny Charles, Kim Brewer, Mimi Nowak, JR Bradfield, Len DePiano, John Powers, Ed Pampani, Keith Autocunas, Snakeman Runyan, Paul Obremski, Robert Zee, Ed Avilia, Bones Sanford, Mikey K., The CONGREGATION, Phil Leibergall, Chaz, Evan Coniglio, Roy Macnamra, Phil 'n the Blanks, Gene Gigliardi, Doug Diettmann, Carl Marcantonio, Rich Koerner, Bob Giglio and Amy Franza and Peter Mailliss, pictured below

Thanks to Orphan Annie's, Rick, Tim, Frank, Annie, Brad for finding the bad tubes, Stevie for drivin my ass around, Ed for breaking down the drums and Win for the photographs and of course, the BluezKid.

See you at American Roots Live 69!

Keeping it real,

Ned

ARL Roots Review 67

If a picture really is worth a thousand words what does this picture of Ken Brodack from Fort Myers, Florida, taken at a recent American Roots Live celebration, tell you?




This is why I say ARL is a good way to make the best out of "just another Thursday night" and a great cure for the Sunday night blues!

For 67 weeks - now two nights per week; Thursdays and Sundays - American Roots Live with Nasty Ned is where musicians and fans, from near and far, come to meet and party in the name of music. If you haven't joined us already you really should!








Kate Weber knows a thing or two about having fun. And she knows about the music too; where it comes from - the artists who made it long before she was born - and she knows it almost as well as she knows how to belt out any Janis Joplin song you throw at her!



Our ARL co host, JR Bradfield, the hardest working man in the show, knows how to have fun too. Then again he's had a lot of experience - he and his black Takamine have played for hundreds of thousands of people across hundreds of thousands of miles around this world before settling down at home, here at American Roots Live.


There is no place like home.

For me home is where my harp is and right now that's American Roots Live every Thursday and Sunday night at Orphan Annie's in Stirling, NJ. We do have fun. Come and see for yourself. There really is no other show like it anywhere!











Here's me gettin' down and having some fun at home. Man that feels good!



Join me and JR Bradfield and the rest of the American Roots Live All Stars at American Roots Live 68 this week and have some "get down" fun of your own. Or get down and order up some home cookin' and just sit back and relax.

Remember, when you eat at ARL I'll give you a FREE raffle ticket that could win you this ARL ALL Stars autographed guitar at our end-of-the-summer-drawing.











Here's the playlist from ARL 67. Remember, some of these talented folks participated in both shows: JR Bradfield, John Powers, Len Depiano, Mimi Nowak, Roy Macnamara, Johnny Charles, Carlo Trentacosta, Gavin Lawrence, Garry Hodgson, Keith McGonigle, Bones Sandford, Robert Zee, Doug Diettmann, Steve Pozz, Peter Mailliss, Amy Franza, Jamo Flynn, Lori V., Ed Pampani, Phil Liebergall, Chaz, Keith Autocanus, Chris O'Sullivan, Chet Smith, Ron Seibert, Brad Sicotte, Bob Giglio and a new band named Phil 'n the Blanks.

Many thanks to all who help make American Roots Live happen; Orphan Annie's, Rick, Tim, Sandy, Karin, Annie, Frank, Garry, Lori, Win & Ed for these photos and Stevie for the baked goods.

See you soon we hope.

Keeping it real,

Ned

ARL Roots Review 61

Let there be drums!

Picture these silver-sparkled babies in white pearl and that's what you'll get when you come to play at American Roots Live with Nasty Ned. A brand new Gretsch, 4 piece jazz kit with a kickin' little "18 bass drum.

Can I get a shamalama ding dong?

There was a lot more than just ratta-tat-tat going on at American Roots Live 61, though. We had some of the hottest musicians on this side of the country on stage with us; Johnny Charles, Bob DelRosso, Dave Carta, Roy Macnamara and Mike Carroll to name a few.

Yeah buddy, ARL keeps gettin' hotter and hotter each week.

We should be in serious melt down mode by time HoneyBoy Dupree arrives from Phoenix, AZ for our 5th of July Party that kicks off ARL's Thursday nights at Orphan Annie's. Yes, we're back to two big shows per week. Every Thursday at 9 and every Sunday at 8, but don't worry about the heat, Orphan Annie's is nicely air conditioned and comfortable - a great place to chill, eat, drink and listen to some blistering-hot live music.

ARL 61's playlist read: John Powers, JR Bradfield, Len DePiano, Ed Pampani, Mimi Nowak, Johnny Charles, Kim Brewer, Roy Macnamara, Dave Sherman, Andy Koenig, Don Howland, Robert Zee, Chris O'Sullivan, Mike Carrol, Dave Carta, Bob DelRosso, Rex Miller, Gene Gagliardi, Paul Obremski, Ron Seibert, Bob Giglio, Phil Liebergall, Adam Pliss and NASCAR photographer Rich Singer from Charlotte, NC who put down his camera and picked up a bass guitar to join us on stage.

ARL 61 also saw us collecting All Stars autographs on a new guitar just like the one in the picture held proudly by winner, Phil Ouilette. That means there will soon be another autographed All Stars guitar winner. Don't miss your chance to take it home with you. Get in on the fun. Come out and join us.



Guitar raffle tickets will be available starting Sunday, July 1st.

Special thanks to Orphan Annie's management and staff; Rick, Karin, Brian and Annie, also Elmore Magazine and Stevie for the Drake's Devil Dogs, mmm good!

Along with nine fabulous nights of ARL in the upcoming month, July is going to be pretty eventful. Lot's of other live music in store for you as well including the Bernie Brausewetter Tribute Concert at the Stone Pony. Visit Nasty Ned dot com for the details on this show, the NYC Blues Cruise with Michael Krizan, and lots of other exciting live dates.

Get some rest. We'll see you Sunday at ARL inside OA's.

Keeping it real,

Ned

ARL Roots Review 59

Whacked by the Sopranos?

Fuggitaboutit.




American Roots Live with Nasty Ned held its turf Sunday night at Orphan Annie's playing host to many knock-dead roots jammers and garage rockers.

Great people, great music and great prizes including commercial baked goods that fell off a truck in Bloomfield.













Yes, the special raffle prize along with the Charlie Parker CD, Elmore Magazines and autographed harmonicas was a rerouted red bag of Archway "Big Batch" Chocolate Chip Cookies.

From blues to folk-blues to rock inspired by roots music, ARL - the only open mic celebration of roots music that might get you fat - was tons of fun!

With your regular favorites joined on stage by lots of new faces, ARL 59 was off the scale.

Here's how the hit list read: JR Bradfield, Ed Pampani, Roy Macnamara, Garry Hodgson, Ron Seibert, Gene Gigliardi, Chris O'Sullivan, Chaz, Ed Avilia, Paul, Phil and Los Gringos with Josh Lafargue, Stacy Hanft, Ed Hanft and George Segale

Special thanks to Big Daddy and the Musician's Trading Post in Washington, NJ for the set of white Pearls, Little Stevie for the big cookies, Ed, Karin, Rick, BluesKid, Elmore, Win and more.

See you again on Sunday.

Keeping it real,

Ned
