馃嚝馃嚪 Biographie (Fran莽ais)
Originaire de Houston, The Moving Sidewalks est un groupe fond茅 en 1966 incluant Billy Gibbons (futur ZZ Top). Leur unique album Flash, enregistr茅 en 1968 aux studios Gold Star et 茅dit茅 en 1969 chez Tantara, capture un rock psych茅d茅lique aux accents blues-rock et garage . Influenc茅 par Hendrix et les 13th Floor Elevators, l’album m锚le riffs furieux, orgue Hammond vaporeux et exp茅rimentations sonores – avec des titres comme “Flashback”, “Crimson Witch” ou le long “Joe Blues” qui explore les ambiances stoner blues .
Flash est le seul LP publi茅, en 1968, par les Moving Sidewalks, groupe de la sc猫ne rock texanne de la seconde partie des ann茅es 1960.
Composition du producteur seul, Steve Ames, l'inaugural 'Flashback' (Steve Ames) est d'abord une chanson psych茅-rock absolument dans les canons de l'茅poque, mais, 脿 mi-chemin, elle se transforme de fa莽on surprenante en ballade hindouisante avec guitare-sitar et batterie-tablas. Composition du clavi茅riste Tom Moore, 'Scoun Da Be' propose un psych茅-rock plus groovy pop mais aussi un poil plus heavy. 'You Make Me Shake' monte le tempo et offre 脿 Bill Gibbons qui l'a compos茅e l'occasion d'un solo dont il avait d茅j脿 le secret remarqu茅 par Jimi Hendrix. 'You Don't Know The Life' est une ballade calme avec l'orgue de son compositeur en avant. 'Pluto - Sept. 31st' est une composition sign茅e Gibbons/Ames inspir茅e des 'Purple Haze' et 'Foxey Lady' de la JHE . A nouveau dans la veine psych茅-rock uptempo, '99th Floor' offre un solo tonitruant d'harmonica de la part de Bill Gibbons. 'What Are You Doing To Do' est un jerk bien d'茅poque.
'No Good To Cry', reprise d'une chanson de Al Anderson, est une ballade pop douloureuse, avec breakbeat et orgue, dans un clich茅 de l'茅poque. Avec 'Crimson Witch' Bill Gibbons revient sur le terrain psych茅-rock, limite heavy-psych, mais peine apparemment 脿 rassembler ses id茅es. 'Need Me' est un single psych茅-rock de type heavy sign茅 Billy Gibbons et le conclusif 'Every Night A New Surprise' (d没 脿 la plume de Steve Ames) sonne comme du rock psych茅d茅lique en kit.

Formed in Houston in 1966, The Moving Sidewalks released their only album, Flash, in 1969. The LP is a potent mix of psychedelic rock, blues-rock and garage energy, recorded at Gold Star studios. Featuring future ZZ Top frontman Billy Gibbons and heavy Hammond organ, the album showcases Hendrix-inspired guitar work, freak-out jams, and bluesy explorations in tracks like “Joe Blues” .
Flash is the only LP released in 1968 by the Moving Sidewalks, rock scene the group Texan of the second part of the 1960s. producer of the composition alone, Steve Ames, the inaugural 'Flashback' (Steve Ames) is primarily a psyche-rock song absolutely in the canons of the time, but halfway, it becomes surprisingly in hindouisante ballad with guitar-sitar and tablas battery. Composition keyboardist Tom Moore, 'Da Scoun Be' offers rock-pop psyche more groovy but also a heavier coat. 'You Make Me Shake' up the tempo and offers Bill Gibbons who composed during a solo which he had already noticed the secret by Jimi Hendrix. 'You Do not Know The Life' is a quiet ballad with organ of its composer forward. 'Pluto - Sept. 31st is a composition signed Gibbons / Ames inspired' Purple Haze 'and' Foxey Lady 'of the JHE. Again in the psyche-rock vein uptempo '99th Floor' offers a thunderous solo harmonica from Bill Gibbons. 'What Are You Doing To Do' is a good time to jerk. 'No Good To Cry', cover of a song by Al Anderson, is a painful pop ballad, with breakbeat and organ, in a snapshot of the time. With Crimson Witch 'Bill Gibbons returns to the field psyche-rock, heavy-psych limit, but apparently difficult to gather his thoughts. 'Need Me' is a heavy type of psyche-rock single signed Billy Gibbons and the concluding 'Every Night A New Surprise' (from the pen of Steve Ames) sounds like psychedelic rock kit.
