Arthur Rovozzo
This film project is the brainchild of “Musical Myriad” host Arthur Rovozzo, WECS Radio, 90.1FM.
Arthur’s extensive musical knowledge and passion for historical roots has led to the development of this unique 5-part series.
As Arthur describes:
“On January 24th at The Packing House we're planning to begin the show with recently departed guitarist extraordinaire Jeff Beck. We had seen and heard Jeff back during our British invasion show of TV program excerpts last spring. This time around - no Yardbirds - rather Jeff as an already well established group leader and star.
Beck will display two aspects of his career, paying tribute to his very earliest guitar influences from the 1950s, then switching over to his technically astounding, advanced soloing methods which he first explored on the hit albums ‘Blow by Blow’ and ‘Wired’ in the mid 1970s. These benchmark recordings set the course for the rest of Jeff's life in music.”
We have compiled and will screen a selection of unique and relevant historic music related films from January thru May. This series is intended to share the journey and evolution of contemporary rock and blues from the sixties forward.
Join us for the screening of this musical journey. This project is a part of the EC-CHAP Friday Film Series hosted by the Eastern Connecticut Center for History, Art, and Performance (EC-CHAP), a 501.3.c non-profit membership-based cultural organization.
