I nā makahiki 1960 o ke kenekulia i hala, ua hoʻomaka a hoʻomohala ʻia kahi kuhikuhi hou o nā mele rock, i hoʻoulu ʻia e ka hippie movement - progressive rock.
Ma kēia nalu, nui nā pūʻulu mele like ʻole i hoʻāʻo e hoʻohui i nā mele hikina, nā mele kahiko i ka hana ʻana a me nā mele jazz.
ʻO kekahi o nā ʻelele maʻamau o kēia ʻano hiki ke noʻonoʻo ʻia ʻo ka hui East of Eden.
Moolelo o ka hui
ʻO ka mea hoʻokumu a me ke alakaʻi o ka hui ʻo Dave Arbas, he mea hoʻokani pila i hānau ʻia, ʻaʻole hiki ke ʻano ʻē aʻe, no ka mea, ua hānau ʻia ʻo ia i loko o ka ʻohana violinist.
ʻO ka makahiki i hoʻokumu ʻia ai ka hui i manaʻo ʻia ʻo 1967, a ʻo kahi i hoʻomaka ai ka hana mele ʻo Bristol (ʻEnelani).
Ma waho aʻe o ka violin, ua ʻike ʻo Dave, ʻaʻole like me kona makuakāne, i ka hoʻokani ʻana i ka saxophone, ka ʻohe, a me ke kīkā uila. Loaʻa i ka hōkū pōhaku e hiki mai ana nā mākau holoʻokoʻa e hana i nā mele i ke ʻano o ka leo electro progressive.
Eia kekahi, e like me ka lono, ua hoʻohana ʻo ia i kekahi manawa ma ka Hikina, e hoʻomaopopo ana i nā aʻo ʻana a me ka ʻimi ʻana i ke ʻano o ke ola. ʻO kēia mau mea a pau i koho mua i ka holomua o ka hui mele.
Hui hui
ʻO ka haku mele nui, ka mea hoʻoulu manaʻo o ka hui Hikina o Eden a ʻo ka lālā aʻe ʻo Ron Caines. Ua hoʻokani ʻo ia i ka saxophone. ʻO nā leo a me ka hoʻokani pila ke kuleana o Jeff Nicholson, bass guitar - Steve York.
ʻO Dave Dufont ka mea hoʻokani pila no Kanada i mālama i nā mea kani. Me ia ʻano laina ikaika, ʻike ʻia ka hui no ka lanakila nui.
ʻO ka hopena o kā lākou hana he ʻano mele maʻamau, i hoʻoulu ʻia e nā mea hou o ia manawa, e pili ana i ka hui pū ʻana o ka pōhaku a me nā improvisations unconventional.
Albums
Ua hoʻokuʻu koke ʻia ka album mua i ka makahiki 1969, ua kapa ʻia ʻo Mercator Projected. I kēlā manawa, hana ka hui ma lalo o kahi ʻaelike me ka hui hoʻopaʻa leo Dream.
ʻO ke mele o kēia moʻolelo i makemake nui ʻia i nā kumu hikina, a ua hoʻokipa maikaʻi ʻia e ka lehulehu a me ka poʻe hoʻohewa.
I loko o kēia manawa, hana nui ka hui i nā keʻena a me nā hui, e ʻimi ana i nā mea aloha hou aʻe i ko lākou pae me nā hana hoʻonaninani.
Ua hoʻopaʻa ka hui Hikina o Eden i kā lākou album hou ʻo Snafu me kahi laina i hoʻololi iki ʻia - ua loli ka mea hoʻokani bass a me ka mea hoʻokani pahu.
Ua manaʻo ʻia kēia hoʻokuʻu ʻana ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea kūleʻa loa ma ke ʻano o ke kūʻai ʻana, ua hiki i ka hui ke komo i ka papa inoa o nā hui kiʻekiʻe ma ʻEnelani, a ʻike ʻia nā kāne ma ʻEulopa.
ʻO kekahi o nā mele kahiko o ka hui, ʻo Jig A Jig (ma hope o ka hoʻonohonoho hou ʻana i kahi ʻano hou loa, ʻike ʻole ʻia), ua kaulana loa.
Ua hiki kēia haku mele i ke kūlana 7 ma ka hoʻokūkū hoʻokūkū aupuni a noho ma laila no ʻekolu mahina. Me he mea lā ua maopopo a hiki ʻole i nā mea a pau ke hoʻokō i kā lākou pahuhopu.
Ua maopopo loa i kēia manawa pono mākou e neʻe i mua, e hana i nā haku mele hou e leʻaleʻa i kā mākou poʻe pā.
Nahaha o ka hui Hikina o Edena
I hoʻokahi makahiki ma hope mai, ua kau inoa ka hui i kahi ʻaelike hou me Harvest Records. Ua hoʻololi hou kēia mau hoʻololi i nā mea hoʻokani pila; ʻo Dave Arbas wale nō i koe mai nā lālā kahiko.
Ua loli hou ke ʻano o ke mele - mai nā kumu hikina a me nā mele jazz ua hoʻololi lākou i nā mele ʻāina. Ma ka ʻoihana kalepa, ua ʻāpono ʻia, akā nalo maoli ka hui ʻo East Of Eden i ko lākou ʻano kūʻokoʻa.
ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu ua haʻalele ka mea hoʻokumu i ka hui, a ua pani ʻia e ka mea hoʻokani pila mua ʻo Joe O'Donnell, a ʻo ka hui mele kumu i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i ka inoa wale nō.
Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻelua album hou: New Leaf a me Another Eden, akā ʻaʻole kaulana loa.
ʻAʻole hiki i ka hui ke noho ma nā palapala Pelekane; ʻaʻole i ʻae a ʻike paha nā mea pā i ke ola hou ʻana o kā lākou mea mele punahele. Eia kekahi, ʻaʻole i loaʻa i ka hoʻololi mau o nā limahana ka hopena maikaʻi loa i ka maikaʻi o nā haku mele.
ʻAʻole i loli ka inoa o ka hui, e hana ana i kahi leo kiʻekiʻe ʻole, ua manaʻo nā mea hana a me nā mea komo e ola ma nā laurels o nā mea i komo mua. No laila, hana ka hui a hiki i ka makahiki 1978 ma mua o ka hemo ʻana.
Makani Elua o Edena
Ma hope o 20 mau makahiki, i ka hopena o 1990s, ua hoʻoholo ʻo Dave Arbus e hana hou i East Of Eden a hui pū me Jeff Nicholson lāua ʻo Ron Caines no kēia kumu.
ʻOiaʻiʻo, ua moe nā kāne a ua hilinaʻi e hiki iā lākou ke hana hou i ka kūleʻa i ʻike ʻia e ka hui i nā makahiki 1970 o ke kenekulia i hala.
Me kēia lineup, ua hoʻokuʻu ka poʻe mele i ʻelua mau mele - Kalipse a me Armadillo, ʻoiaʻiʻo, pono e lohe ʻia. Akā naʻe, ʻaʻole hiki i nā kāne ke hoʻokō i ka lewa mua, jazziness, a me ke kani maʻamau.
ʻOiai ko lākou mau mana koʻikoʻi a me ko lākou ala hoʻomohala i ka hoʻomohala ʻana, ʻaneʻane ʻaʻohe o nā lālā mua o East Of Eden i hoʻokō i ka lanakila nui ma ke mele.
ʻO ka mea ʻokoʻa wale nō kekahi o nā mea hoʻokani pahu, ʻo Jeff Briton, ka mea i laki i ka hana ma ka hui Wings, i hoʻokumu ʻia e Paul McCartney.
ʻO ka kūleʻa o East Of Eden he maʻalahi loa e wehewehe - 1960-1970. hōʻailona ʻia e nā neʻe hou i waena o nā ʻōpio. Ua ʻike nā kānaka a pau i ka waiwai o nā hippies, nā pua o ka lā, nā keiki o ke kūʻokoʻa.
ʻO nā mele maʻamau, e hoʻokani ana i nā mea kani kupaianaha e like me ka saxophone, i hui pū me ka violin a me ka kīkā uila, ʻaʻole hiki ke ʻike ʻole ʻia.
