Samuel Stiles: Just a little (Single, 2010)

 

Ya lo posteé el pasado domingo, pero como es un temazo, pues me apetece volver a recordar que Samuel Stiles, el cantautor de New Orleans, está grabando y regalando muchos temas últimamente desde su Bandcamp. En este caso la cover es de The Beau Brummels, y la recreación es casi perfecta, con esa guitarra con trémolo tan delicada que los californianos grabaron en 1965. Descárgala y disfruta…

Samuel Stiles – Just a little (1965)

“Here is my version of a song written by The Beau Brummels. It’s one of my favorite pop tunes of all time from the 1960s.
Hope you enjoy! This track was recorded to a Tascam 1″ analog tape machine. The beastly MS-16.
Samuel Stiles plays: Vox, Backing Vox, 1953 Kay acoustic guitar, 1972 Fender Telecaster deluxe, Bass, Drums, Tambourine” (samuelstiles.com)

Samuel Stiles: New Mama (Single, 2010)

Samuel Stiles es un cantautor de New Orleans que se dedica a facturar sonidos cercanos a la Americana, o como en este caso, al Pop-Folk que realizan gentes como Neil Young, a quien pertenece este tema que Samuel Stiles ha versioneado con fines benéficos, para ayudar a una fundación pro-ayuda a enfermos con parálisis cerebral. En cualquier caso, este sencillo lo puedes descargar gratuitamente desde su Bandcamp, aunque puedes colaborar pinchando el enlace que adjunto abajo. La versión homenajea fielmente el espíritu folkie de la original.

Samuel Stiles – New Mama (Single, 2010)

“This is the first of many songs that I will do for a charitable cause that is very dear to my heart.
As many of you may know, I work with adults with developmental disabilities. When I lived in New Orleans, I worked specifically with people diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy. This is an affliction that has a broad range of accompanying disabilities.
Some of you may not know that Neil Young has two sons with Cerebral Palsy. I have always been inspired by his music and his charitable efforts to fund The Bridge School.
www.bridgeschool.org.
Every few months I will be covering a Neil Young song and ask each of you to kindly donate money to help children and adults with Cerebral Palsy.
I will NOT ask this of you for this song.
This is simply the first installment of the series and to give you a heads up to this charitable venture in the future.
Enjoy and thanks for listening!
This is my version of one of my favorite Neil Young songs” (samuelstiles.com)
