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 April 25th at The Packing House we’ll be featuring The Allman Brothers Band. The Allman Brothers band underwent tremendous changes throughout its existence, in large part due to the repeated tragedies of losing group members to accidents. Luckily, the ABB was filmed on many occasions, before and after the departure of mercurial founding member and co-leading guitarist Dicky Bets (who recently passed away).
We plan to view several seasons of ABB incarnations in excerpts from performances in the USA and Europe; most songs include extended, instrumental, soloing, an Allman's trademark. And even though most of the other southern bands tend towards a country-rock amalgam, the Allmans loved the blues."
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.
