One of Germany's longest-serving DJs and producers, Phil Fuldner is a Kosmonaut. In other lyric, he belongs to that elite group of performers -- such as Tom Novy, Eniac, and DJ Moguai -- who've sign on with Germany's ultra pelvic arch Kosmo Records label. Fuldner number 1 reach the heavy time in 1997 thanks to the single "The Final" -- a remake of the old "Maitre d'hotel Future Hymn." A massive success on dance charts all over Europe, the liberation was a bicycle-built-for-two run with DJ Moguai, with whom Fuldner has had a foresighted association dating back to the pre-Kosmo times. In 1998, he had a go at covering the retro-classic "S-Express" -- the theme to the S-Express TV attest -- and the resolvent was as yet another dance chart topper in Germany. During the side by side couple of geezerhood, Fuldner was busy in the studio producing and remixing a master of ceremonies of democratic compilation albums, surgical with such big list calling as Timo Maas, Judge Jules, and Yves Deruyter.

Amy Winehouse plays V Festival - just!

Amy Winehouse performed what is expected to be her third base last gig before she takes an extended let on from playing live at V Festival this evening (August 16).


Taking to the V Stage with the pelting pouring down at the Staffordshire stage of the event, the singer's band emerged number one nearly 20 minutes former, then paused and scarcely stood in that location in limbo doing zip for various long minutes.


Following a mixture of cheers and boos from the wait festival crowd, Winehouse bust the humour, dramatically scampering onstage at 6.30 (BST).


Wearing a lean, black and white chequered top and rolled up half-jeans, the singer greeted the crowd with a simple "Hello, alright?"


However whatever ill-feeling might have been suppuration evaporated with sing-a-longs to the likes of 'Back To Black' and 'Tears Dry On Their Own' as even the weather appeared to favour the singer, as the pelting eased up.


"How you feeling, heed you look gorgeous in waterproofs," Winehouse then told the audience. " I'm telling you, you all depend gorgeous."


The singer dedicated 'Wake Up Alone' to her married man - Blake Fielder-Civil wHO is currently severing a 27 prison sentence - which caused some boos from the crowd, only 'Love Is A Losing Game' and 'You Know I'm No Good' soon restored the positive spirits as the singer danced about on the spot.


Despite picking up her stanford White guitar on several occasions, the Winehouse did not play as she and her stripe chopped her set around to oblige the lost time.

'Rehab' earned meretricious cheers, as Winehouse touched towards the climax of her V Stage appearance.


Finishing with The Zutons' cover 'Valerie' a now smiling Winehouse led the crowd through the laid back singsong, then thanked them and left the stage, leaving her band to roll the localise up with a inadequate flourish.

Winehouse is now set to play the Chelmsford leg of V Festival tomorrow (August 17) after which, according to her father-God, Mitch Winehouse, she will play one more gig before pickings an extended break from playing live after September 6.

Jim Dickinson is the dad behind the North Mississippi Allstars








JACKSON, Miss. - Jim Dickinson has played with Dylan, opened for Clapton and helped define the Memphis sound in a 40-year career as a music maverick. But his favourite gig came with the little-known Hardly Can Playboys.

Dickinson played keys for the short-lived quintet that featured his eldest son, 15-year-old Luther, on guitar and the youngest, 12-year-old Cody, behind the kit. These days his sons are better known as two-thirds of the North Mississippi Allstars, the roots-rockers who did papa proud by helping revitalize the sagging blues scene.

"He would teach us a rock 'n' roll song, a gospel song, a country song, all different types of roots music," Luther Dickinson said in the back of his tour bus during a recent stop in Jackson. "I learned to play with a piano player and I learned to play different types of music that he loved. And that's always been a huge aspect of our career."

The Allstars have carved out a unique niche with their Hill Countrified blend of rock and blues. They just wrapped up a 20-city tour in support of their sixth album, "Hernando," an homage to the Memphis suburb of their childhood that turned out to be the perfect incubation chamber for a couple of aspiring musicians.

Twelve years after forming, the Allstars have been nominated for three Grammys, played hundreds of gigs around the world and are secure in their careers. They've achieved the kind of success every father hopes for but Dickinson wasn't always sure his sons were headed in that direction, as they banged away on clunky chord changes and slightly arrhythmic beats.

The Hardly Can Playboys was Dickinson's way of passing on a legacy and a career to his sons.

Considering what they'd given him, it was the least he could do.

"It's always about fathers and sons to me," Dickinson said. "You've got to understand that they saved my life. It was the '70s and the drugs and the lifestyle that we were all a part of. I have a graveyard full of dead friends and my boys very definitely saved my life. I owe them for that. I always will."

As he has in an eclectic career as artist, sideman and producer, Dickinson, 67, turned conventional wisdom upside down after his sons were born. He showed rock 'n' rollers don't have to live the rock 'n' roll lifestyle. And he subverted the idea that a great dad has to be a nine-to-five square.

"My first experiences with live music were his bands, Mudboy and the Neutrons particularly," Cody Dickinson said. "I continue to mine my father's repertoire for material, and it's really working out."

Music was everywhere as the boys grew up, from the blues-and R&B-informed rock their father played to the ancient bluesmen he befriended to the itinerant sidemen who ate in their mother's kitchen and slept out back in the barn.

Dickinson's credits stretch back four decades to when he first met his wife of 44 years, Mary Lindsay. He's managed an outsider's career in an insider's industry, recording and producing with greats like Aretha Franklin, Big Star, the Rolling Stones and Sam and Dave.

It wasn't until his sons came along that he found his true calling, though. Luther, now 35, said their father tried to discourage them but the kids were "goners."

When dad wasn't teaching them chords, he was giving them lessons in musical taste with his expansive record collection. They first heard R.L. Burnside and Otha Turner mining that stack of vinyl.

"And when I first saw Jimi Hendrix on a public TV station," Luther Dickinson said, "he was like, 'Oh, here, you'll like this.' "

He took them to see everybody from Guns 'n' Roses to Junior Kimbrough and they tagged along on gigs if the club wasn't too sketchy.

They both started on toy drum kits and Luther eventually turned to the guitar. Their first gig was in elementary school as the Rebelaires. The Dickinsons thought they were their kids' biggest fans, but found they were just members of the club.

"They just tore down the house," Mary Lindsay said of that first gig. "They were late coming out and Jim says, 'Luther, where were you?' And Luther said, 'Well, I had to talk to all the girls.' "

The boys spent all their free time in the basement. The racket was a joyful noise to Jim Dickinson.

"I'd hear them playing what appeared to be chaos only they were doing it together, you know," he said. "And they're still largely unaware of it when it happens because it's so natural. And it enables them to improvise in a way even really great jazz musicians can't."

Cody, 32, proved a polyrhythmic natural. By 12 "he was playing like a man" and taking solos in concert. Luther didn't have the same gift. Though his first word was "studio" and he was fascinated with his father's reel-to-reel tape players, he had to work for every note he played.

"I'm not going to lie to you," Jim told Luther. "Keep practising. I'm not going to tell you you can play until you get somewhere with it."

When the boys began writing songs, Dickinson took them to Sam Phillips' studio. If anybody could get a record out of them, it was the veteran Memphis producer Roland Janes. But they weren't ready.

So he recruited a couple of friends to play bass and sax and set up the Playboys. Those were among the best gigs of Jim Dickinson's life. But at the same time he was teaching the boys, they had an impact on him.

"If you look back at my records that I've made as a producer, they're pretty left wing," he said. "It's some pretty off-the-wall stuff. Especially in the punk rock days. I literally took clients because I thought it would impress my children."

After a year, Dickinson decided the kids were all right. Luther remembers that day with pride: "When I was 16, he was like, 'Son, you've got a car, a guitar and an amp. Go see what you can hustle up. There's nothing more I can do for you."'

Bermuda Unveils the Talent Line-Up of International Superstars for the 13th Annual Bermuda Music Festival

Bermuda's Most Illustrious Event in Music Festival History

HAMILTON, Bermuda, May 20 -- Bermuda Department of Tourism
announced today the star studded lineup for the 2008 Bermuda Music
Festival, being hosted, once again, by Steve Harvey. From October 1-4,
2008, the Bermuda Department of Tourism sponsored event, produced by
Gibraltar Promotions LLC., in association with Yhoshi Productions LTD., is
sure to make headlines all over the world.

Kicking off the 13th annual event on October 1st at the Fairmont
Southampton Beach Club will be the soulful sounds of R&B legends, The
Whispers. On day two of the festival, world-renowned megastar and music
icon, Beyonce will light up the stage of the National Sports Centre. On
October 3rd, British reggae band, UB40 is sure to bring fans to their feet.
Finally, on Saturday, October 4th, the Bermuda Music Festival will come to
a close with an evening full of sounds from international superstar Alicia
Keys.

"Our goal with the Bermuda Music Festival is to consistently make it
better and consistently raise the bar," said Bermuda's Premier, Minister of
Tourism and Transport, Dr. the Hon. Ewart F. Brown, JP, MP. "With the
talent lineup announced today I'm confident we are on track to make the
2008 Bermuda Music Festival the most exciting and most successful to date."

One of R&B music's most beloved and consistently popular vocal groups,
The Whispers, began their legendary and timeless career in 1963, producing
a string of hits over the last four decades such as "And the Beat Goes On,"
"Rock Steady," "A Song For Donny," and "Lady." They emerged as the leading
romantic singers of their generation, racking up one gold album after
another and charting numerous R&B hits. They are arguably the most
celebrated R&B balladeers of their generation and still make women swoon
with their silky yet forceful tenors of twins Walter and Scotty.

Beyonce Knowles has become one of the most widely recognized and highly
respected women in pop culture. In 2001, she became the first
African-American woman and the second woman ever to take home the ASCAP Pop
Songwriter of the Year Award. Beyonce's #1 multi-platinum debut solo album,
"Dangerously in Love," earned her five Grammy Awards. She made chart
history in 2003 when she became the first artist in 20 years, and the first
female recording artist ever, to simultaneously reach #1 in the US and the
UK with both her album "Dangerously in Love" and single "Crazy in Love," a
feat accomplished by a mere handful of artists including the Beatles and
Rod Stewart. On September 4, 2006, Beyonce released her second solo album
"B'DAY" which won the Grammy for Best Contemporary R&B Album, resulting in
Beyonce's 10th Grammy win overall and 7th win as a solo artist. In November
of that year, the American Music Awards honored Beyonce with the
International Artist Award making her the first woman in AMA history and
sixth artist overall to be recognized with the prestigious award.

UB40 have combined musical excellence with social conscience in a way
that remains unrivalled in this or any other era. UB40 have for almost
three decades now been ambassadors of a musical form that is barely four
decades old, seeing it through virtually from its infancy in the mid-'70s
to maturity today. One of UB40's most redeeming and endearing qualities is
their ability to appeal to fans from all walks of life regardless of race,
class or creed. It is these endearing qualities that have earned them a
legion of fans across the globe. Some of UB40's biggest hits include "Red
Red Wine," "Can't Help Falling in Love with You," and "I Got You Babe."

Alicia Keys has built an unparalleled repertoire of hits and
accomplishments with over 28 million albums sold worldwide. Throughout her
career, Keys has earned numerous accolades. In addition to eleven Grammy
Awards, she's nabbed eleven Billboard Music Awards, three American Music
Awards, three World Music Awards, three MTV Video Music Awards, three MTV
Europe Awards, two Nickelodeon Teen Choice Awards, two BET Awards, fourteen
NAACP Image Awards, seven Soul Train Music Awards, two Soul Train Lady of
Soul Awards, one People's Choice Award, one My VH1 Award and more.

Comedian, actor and radio personality, Steve Harvey, is a force to be
reckoned with. The comedian hit the silver screens in 2004 with two movie
releases. After completing a second season of the WB's "Steve Harvey's Big
Time Challenge," his latest blockbuster animated live action family film,
"Racing Stripes," hit theatres this past January. "The Steve Harvey Morning
Show," boasted ratings with loyal listeners over its first five years.
Today, "The Steve Harvey Morning Show" is syndicated by Premiere Radio
Networks and airs in 18 markets including New York, Dallas, Washington, DC,
Chicago, Detroit, Charlotte, Kansas City and Philadelphia.

This year's Bermuda Music Festival is being produced by Gibraltar
Promotion LLC., in association with Yhoshi Productions LTD. Gibraltar
Promotions is a full service marketing, promotions and event production
firm headed by Rock Newman, former manager to Heavyweight Champion, Riddick
Bowe. Dubbed by Jet Magazine, the "Renaissance Man," Mr. Newman is now

Harrison Ford - Indiana Jones Makes 45m In Midnight Screenings

The new Indiana Jones film, the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, has reportedly made $4.5 million (£2.27 million) at the US box office after midnight screenings on Wednesday night.

Variety magazine claimed that the fourth Indiana Jones film also made $2.2 million (£1.1 million) in France, Belgium and Switzerland.

Reviews of the eagerly awaited film have been mixed with some critics hailing the return of the famous archaeologist, 19 years after he last appeared on the big screen, as a triumph. Others have been less that flattering regarding Harrison Ford's age and the film's script.

The film received its international premier earlier this week at the Cannes festival.

At the famous film event Ford dismissed criticism of the film claiming that he made the picture for the paying public not the critics.

Indiana Jones, created by George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, first appeared on cinema screens in 1981 in the film Raiders of the Lost Ark.

The franchise included two other movies including Temple of Doom in 1984 and the Last Crusade in 1989.

This bird can sing

This is my first slew of festivals as a performer, which naturally I'm very excited about. I've only played one so far, Coachella with Mark Ronson. It was the biggest crowd I've ever performed to and I'm not going to pretend I wasn't nervous, but because it was dark I could only really see about 200 people anyway. Coachella is great, once the sun goes down it's not too hot to dance without losing vital amounts of sweat, and where else would you find David Hasselhoff and Rosanna Arquette just hanging around backstage? I saw Daft Punk there in 2006 and they were unbelievable; I get goosebumps just thinking about it. Apparently, the festival paid them $1 million to play and they spent it all on the set, which included the famous and awesome Daft Punk pyramid. People went ballistic during that show. As for the UK festivals, I've never been but I'm told Wireless is good because it removes the "roughing factor", which I think appeals to anyone who'd prefer to go home to a warm bed once the show's over rather than a tent. Personally, I can't wait to play Bestival because I hear it's very eccentric and there's a fancy dress night where everyone dresses up. Speaking of which, I just bought my outfit for Glastonbury. All I can say is that it's very colourful and, also, waterproof.
