Loud Hailer es el undécimo álbum de estudio del guitarrista Jeff Beck, lanzado en julio de 2016.
El genio de las cuerdas, a sus 72 jóvenes años, reaparece con un álbum de sonoridades contemporáneas pero fieles al Jeff Beck héroe del blues-rock; y con unas letras cargadas de alto contenido político.
"Todo se juega como una mala película de serie B / Había agujeros en la trama y los actores dejase ' no me mover / Usted piensa que estoy loco, pero sé que mi núcleo / he leído la verdad oficial pero hay una verdad vale la pena luchar ".
(The Ballad of the Jersey Wives)
SCARED FOR THE CHILDREN
SCARED FOR THE CHILDREN
Billy skipped school again looking like a fool again
What a little waste for a taste of a big boy's life
I'm scared for the children
Computer screens and magazines
Manufactured hopes and dreams
Playing in a concrete box 'cause mother's got her shows to watch
I'm scared for the children
[Chorus:]
This is the end of the age of the innocent
One more game before they go
This is the end of the age of the innocent
What will we leave them with
Suppose we'll never know
Processed greens and man made meat
Running out of things to eat
Little boys having way too much fun playing with a big boys gun
I'm scared for the children
And on the day the last bird dies
There won't be a drop from their big square eyes
An old man with his eyes just like glass
Kisses the last blade of grass
I'm scared for the children
[Chorus]
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
No respect for anyone
Why would they after what we done
What an example we have set, what a planet we have left
Let's be there for these children
"Si me deja de tener más / Bueno, te voy a decir, no habrá guerra." El título de la canción de apertura "La Revolución será televisada "está muy gastado lo suficiente sin que se utiliza como una plataforma para reprender a la gente por no ser más políticamente comprometido (" Supongamos que será mejor que baje el volumen / así que no se puede oír su petición / Supongamos que había mejor cambiar el canal / Podría poner a los niños fuera de su té ").
(O.I.L.)
La guitarrista Carmen Vandenberg y la vocalista Rosie Bones tienen a su vez su propia banda, a la que hay que echarle un par de orejas (ver enlace al final de éste post).
Jeff es uno de los mejores guitarristas del mundo y eso es algo que no creo que muchos rockeros y blueseros me quieran discutir.Y éste álbum es otra muestra del buen gusto y del saber rodearse también, de éste talentoso músico.
Nuevamente debo agradecer a mi hijo mayor el hallazgo de éste disco.
THUGS CLUB
THUGS CLUB
Looking for Larry, has somebody seen him?
Last seen with a case full of cash down 8th
Singing 'all right'. Larry's all right.
We're going after Larry
'Cos we got some questions.
'Cos some of his sums don't add up.
But as long as little Larry's all right.
Yeah, people like Larry are always all right.
So we'll feed your greed
'Til you're too fat to run.
Then you'll hear the 'bang bang'
Of the poor man's gun.
Watch out!
Looking for David, has somebody seen him?
His ignorant statement's brainwashing my nation.
But as long as Davy's all right.
Davy's all right.
We're going after George that creepy little puppet.
There's real men in those battleships baby. Ah fuck it.
As long as Georgie's Porgie's all right.
Generations of Georges are always all right.
So we'll sit and watch the horrible things that you do
And if someone points a finger near you.
You'll just blame it on the...
'Cause it's a rich man's war
And only the rich will win.
Sit in their towers watching men suffering.
But we won't fight your war no more.
'Cause it's a rich man's game
And only the super rich win.
Sit in their towers watching men suffering.
But we wont fight your war no more.
Looking for Rupert last seen witn the devil.
He's buying him diamonds. Australia's finest.
Rupert's all right.
As long as he's selling papers
He'll sleep tight at night.
And Melissa and Sean who work for the Foxes.
Your presentation's crass
And your opinions aren't facts.
When you dumb down the news
You dumb down the future
Then you can just tell us what you want
And us 'dumb dumbs' will believe ya.
So we'll sit and watch the horrible things that you do
And if someone points a finger near you.
You'll just blame it on the...
'Cause it's a rich man's war
And only the rich will win.
Sit in their towers watching men suffering.
But we won't fight your war no more.
'Cause it's a rich man's game
And only the super rich win.
Sit in their towers watching men suffering.
But we won't fight your war no more.
We're looking for leaders, royals, actors and singers.
Anyone polluting this world with bile and venom.
Not compassion, understanding, responsibility and hugs.
Those people who use their power to spit hate and not to spread love.
