Happy Birthday to the one and only, Stevie Wonder! Born Stevland Hardaway Morris this day, May 13, 1950, Stevie Wonder is without any doubt one of the most important artists of ALL time! Wonder's career spans seven decades. In 1963, at the tender age of 13 "Fingertips" was a No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. A multi instrumentalist, virtual one-man band, Wonder's use of synthesisers and other electronic musical instruments during the 1970s reshaped the conventions of contemporary R&B, soul, funk, pop, and jazz. Some of his most famous songs include "Superstition," "Sir Duke," "Isn't She Lovely," and "I Just Called to Say I Love You" to name just a few in his huge catalog! He has won multiple Grammy Awards, "Innervisions" (1973), "Fulfillingness' First Finale" (1974) and "Songs in the Key of Life" (1976) all won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year, making him the only artist to have won the award with three consecutive album releases. When I first heard "Songs In The Key Of LIfe" it changed my life! The term 'genius' is often used too frequently, in this instance it's correct, Stevie Wonder truly IS a musical GENIUS!

Released May 12, 1967, Jimi Hendrix's album 'Are you Experienced?' changed musical history! One of the greatest debut albums of all time it's an absolute masterpiece. Containing groundbreaking songs such as "Purple Haze," "Hey Joe," and "The Wind Cries Mary." The album's fusion of blues, rock, and psychedelic elements was groundbreaking at the time and helped shape the direction of rock music for decades to come. It has inspired and will continue to inspire generations of musicians, producers and engineers!
Steve Albini has died at the age of 61. Steve Albini was a HUGE figure in the music industry, a musician with the bands Big Black and Shellac, a recording engineer, and a record producer. Albini gained significant recognition for his distinctive production style, which often emphasised raw, unpolished sounds and captured the honest performances of the artist. Albini produced albums for a wide range of artists across various genres, including Nirvana, Pixies, PJ Harvey, The Jesus Lizard, and many others. He was respected for his commitment to maintaining the integrity of the artists' sound and vision, often favouring minimal overdubs and a "live" recording style. Albini famously did not like to be called a "producer," however he worked on, by his own estimate, "a couple thousand" albums as a recording engineer, including hugely important classics like the Pixies' seminal ’Surfer Rosa’, Nirvana's ‘In Utero’ and PJ Harvey's ‘Rid of Me.’ However, Albini was originally no fan of Nirvana, believing them to be a generic version of the Seattle sound. He only agreed to work with them because he felt sorry for them, believing they were at the mercy of their major record label, and wanted to give them a more abrasive and explosive sound, more indicative of their live shows. Hating the term ‘producer’ he saw his role as recording a band and not shaping its sound.
Outside of music, Albini is also known for his outspoken views on the music industry, economics, and various social issues. He declined to take royalties, charging only a flat fee because he considered it unethical to make money from an artist's work indefinitely. He's published essays and articles on these topics, gaining a reputation for his sharp and sometimes controversial commentary. He ran his own studio, Electrical Audio, in Chicago, Shellac's sixth studio album, ‘To All Trains’, is set to be released May 17th. Steve Albini, your uncompromising attitude will be sorely missed!
