EC-CHAP Friday Film Series: "Jeff Beck”

SUGGESTED DONATION $5.00

SPECIAL NOTE: We are pleased to collaborate with colleague and EC-CHAP Volunteer Arthur Rovozzo to develop this multi-part film series featuring contemporary rock, blues and the “Great Guitars”. Arthur Rovozzo is DJ for the weekly radio program “Musical Myriad” on WECS, 90.1fm.

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.

EC-CHAP Friday Film Series: "Janis Joplin & The Canadian Train Tour”

SUGGESTED DONATION $5.00

As Arthur describes:

“On February 14th at The Packing House we're planning to feature Janis Joplin. Joplin made her most decisive career altering appearances at major rock music festivals. However there are film clips of the vocalist from other times and places that we planned to view excerpts of.

The second half of the night's presentation will be a part documentary part music performance film concerning the scheme of several rock promoters to create a rolling Woodstock on wheels that could travel around North America with eight or nine bands stopping to give concerts at various venues.

Janis Joplin not only got involved, she essentially commandeered the whole plan and turned it into her own personal 24 hour a day party. There are appearances by many other artists in this survey of a train trip gone wildly mad, including Robbie Robertson and the band .”

As Arthur describes:

“On March 28th at The Packing House we're featuring The Doors. The Doors have been one of those groups that have fascinated mystified and frustrated their fans both during the group’s active years and after their dissolution. Part of the frustration was and is related to vocalist Jim Morrison's extremely unpredictable unreliable nature.

The other side of the coin being the irony that a band, composed of former film school students, did not always have themselves filmed effectively! Be that as it may, we plan to take a look at clips from throughout the group’s prime years. On an early tour there were black-and-white sequences of performances from when the band was co-headlining shows with the Jefferson Airplane. Other occasions found a group filmed in action in color, with underrated guitarist Robbie Krieger well featured. The performance moods are all over the map, a Doors tradition."

EC-CHAP Friday Film Series: "The Allman Brothers Band”

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."

As Arthur describes:

“On May 2nd at The Packing House we’ll be exploring Great Guitarists. With this set of film and TV clips, we intend to cover a lot of ground with a number of rock and blues masters, dropping-in a few surprise choices for good measure. A couple of the players selected will be ones we've seen and heard in our series previously, but none of the films will be repeats of the exact material we've shown before. Instead of only featuring the biggest stars, we will have footage of some lesser-known yet important players, and all are legends.

The choices are still to be finalized, although you can count on each performer being well worth seeing and hearing as they burn-up the fretboards in concert settings."
