What Should Your Cm Look Like Before Your Period



MIKE RUTHERFORD

Michael John Crawford Rutherford nucleotides ( Surrey, England , 1950) developed his interest in guitar from a very young age of 7, taught by her older sister Nicolette, who was the music of the moment , especially Elvis Presley . His parents bought him a guitar with 6 strings of nylon, and later would an electric guitar and formed his first band. The Chesters , with two friends from school.

In September 1964 he entered the prestigious English public school Charterhouse where Mike had problems in adapting to the rigidity and strict academic standards. In 1965, Mike ecsuela met at his companion Anthony ("Ant") Phillips, who, as Rutherford , also played guitar and shared the Mike interest in the music of bands like The Beatles, The Kinks and The Rolling Stones .

Phillips formed a new school band, The Anon with Rutherford and his fellow students Richard MacPhail , Rivers Job and Rob Tyrrell. Two years after The Anon and played in activities and school functions. In early 1967, The Anon joined forces with fellow students Tony Banks and Peter Gabriel , who recently performed together as The Garden Wall . They recorded some demos together with Peter Gabriel on drums and vocals, Tony Banks the piano, Anthony Phillips on guitar and Mike Rutherford on bass. After signing with Jonathan King and enroll in the group drummer Chris Stewart , Peter Gabriel focused on lead vocals and the band adopted the name Genesis .

After completion of recording the second album the group, Anthony Phillips left the band, allegedly by his stage fright in the increasingly crowded group's performances. Given the close relationship with Mike , his departure from Genesis was a blow for him, but the band continued looking for another guitarist for their training.

Rutherford was known for his use of 12-string guitar. A characteristic sound of older recordings and classic Genesis was double 12-string acoustic playing intertwined with that of Anthony Phillips , and later, Steve Hackett (sometimes also with keyboardist Tony Banks introduced into the mix). Later began to use a 12-string guitar and bass integrated into a single instrument with two heads, which became famous.

After the group's departure of guitarist Steve Hackett , Rutherford took the roles of guitarist in the study. During the tour would alternate between guitar and bass in the proceedings with the guitarist and bassist Daryl Stuermer . style Rutherford, was reminiscent of David Gilmour of , although less based on the blues, with frequent long tones and melodic, bending notes so plaintive, almost as if they were vocal lines. This resulted in single fit to introduce a vocal or creating soundscapes rather than striking samples of technical skill. Perhaps the best example of this style is the subject Abacab.

After the tour of 1978, Genesis made a break and its members started working on alternative projects and solo. Mike Rutherford used this period to write and record his first solo album, Smallcreep's day, based on a fiction book Peter Brown hustle. Rutherford enrolled in their training to the producer and engineer Genesis , David Hentschel , and a cast of musicians that included Anthony Phillips on keyboards, Noel McCalla ( Manfred Mann's Earth Band) on vocals, and a decent rhythm section Simon Phillips on drums and Morris Pert on percussion, and Rutherford on guitar and bass, as he had done in the previous album of Genesis , ... And Then There Were Three ... The album was released in February 1980 by Charisma Records and reached number 13 in the UK charts. Smallcreep's day was published in the U.S. by Passport Records and reached number 163 in the list of that country. Despite some good reviews, the two singles from the album, Working in line and Time and time again , got no commercial success. After the publication

Three sides live, Genesis made another little break, and Mike Rutherford took the opportunity to sign a solo deal with WEA in Europe and its subsidiary Atlantic Records in the U.S. . In 1982, Rutherford released his second solo album, Acting very strange, which included songs he had written some time ago but never had previously published. The project had Noel McCalla again accompanied on vocals, guitarist toured with Genesis , Daryl Stuermer on guitar, drummer of The Police , Stewart Copeland, Peter Robinson on keyboards, and other respected musicians. Rutherford decided to make the main vocal, which later admitted it was not a good choice.

Although Smallcreep's day was an album that sounded more progressive rock Acting very strange was more directed towards the pop / rock and met with mixed reviews. The Halfway There singles , Maxine and Acting very strange had no commercial impact.


In 1985, Rutherford was in search of musicians for a yet unnamed project, which initially called Not Now Bernard . In the recording sessions appeared compositions written by him and songwriters Neil Christopher and BA Robertson . Eventually renamed Mike & The Mechanics suggestion of his manager Tony Smith in the band collaborated vocalist Paul Carrack several songs like Silent Running (On Dangerous Ground) that reached number 6 on the Billboard . As a result of the success of his album Mike & The Mecanics , Rutherford asked the vocalists Paul Carrack and former Sad Café, Paul Young , to accompany him on tour promotion, along with keyboardist Adrian Lee and drummer Peter Van Hooke .

In 1986, Mike and the Mechanics had already toured the U.S. with The Miracle Tour, and had released two singles, significantly All I need is a miracle , which peaked No. 5 on the Billboard charts . The debut album The Mechanics, Mike + The Mechanics had sold over 500 thousand copies, and won a gold in the U.S. the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA ), making the number 26 on the Billboard album charts . Through The Mechanics , Rutherford reached commercial success, even to compete with his other band, Genesis . After the tour The Mechanics, Mike Rutherford returned to the studio with Phil Collins and Tony Banks to start work in the sixteenth album Genesis , The invisible touch.

In 1988, then the massive success of the album The invisible touch and his book tour, Mike Rutherford returned to the studio to record a new album with Mike and The Mechanics , The living years. As the first album with Mechanics seemed more a pretext for a solo career a real band, with the majority of new music written by Chris Neil , BA Robertson and Mike same . One of the few exceptions was Black and blue, which was actually a song from recording sessions The invisible touch of Genesis, and in collaborating Phil Collins and Tony Banks . The musicians who participated in this second draft of the Mechanics included Paul Carrack, Paul Young , Peter Van Hooke and Adrian Lee, all of whom played a significant role in the success of the album and subsequent tour.

Although her first single, Nobody's perfect (composed Paul Young, who was also named number 63 on the list Billboard ) had a lukewarm reception, the next single became the biggest success story of the Mechanics . The song, written by Mike Rutherford and BA Robertson on the recent loss of his parents, he regrets the things left undone in that moment, shook Paul Carrack, who had lost his father at an early age early. The end result Living years, which soared to No. 1 lists of Billboard U.S. .

Successful Living years led to the album to number 13 Billboard lists in U.S. and win a nomination for the Grammy awards by The song of the year. As the third single from the album, Seeing is Believing reached number 62 on the U.S. charts, the recognition achieved by Living years and the popularity of the group they represented a successful world tour in 1989. Also on the disc include Nobody knows and Why me? , and credits include the choirs of King's House .

In the latter part of the tour Living Years Tour, the band played its version of Revolution of The Beatles that had made months prior to the soundtrack from the movie Cheech and Chong , Rude awakening. Following the album Living years, published his first anthology video A closer look , which was showing scenes behind the scenes and videos of their first two albums. The video was released on VHS and laserdisc, but so far has not come out on DVD.

quickly became The Mechanics the studio to begin work on their third project. With the same musicians plus an additional talent as study Tim Renwick (who had previously toured with Mechanics) Word of mouth , began to be developed. However, the project was not without its share of difficulties and unforeseen delays. The band members Paul Young and Paul Carrack demanded more equality in the compositions of Mechanics , believing they were in their full right to enter more in the creative process, which composition control of Mike was relaxed. Mike also had the producer Russ Titelman , but left after four months of sessions, by mutual decision, and that their contributions were not what Mike was looking for.

To make matters more complicated, the session was delayed due to illness and other personal issues that hindered the implementation of the project. With all these problems, Mike Rutherford was forced to leave the project of Mechanics after recording Word of mouth to return to work on a new album by Genesis, causing unrest in the rest of the group, expected to a promotional tour of Word of mouth. Ultimately, this situation led to the departure of the group's keyboardist Adrian Lee , and later drummer Peter Van Hooke .

The album Word of mouth did not get the commercial success of its two predecessors, peaking at number 107 on the Billboard American. Word of mouth only managed to reach number 78 of Billboard singles chart. The following singles like the catchy pop Everybody gets a second chance and the soft ballad Stop baby did not get jobs relevant lists. Whether due to the sudden popularity of grunge rock music of groups like Nirvana and Alice in Chains , or the mere fact that the album did not get the support necessary at the end, the project was considered a great disappointment on all fronts, despite the minor success of the single Word of mouth in Europe .

In 1993, Genesis gathered to perform at a benefit concert co-organized by Michael Rutherford in England . For this event, Genesis acted with the legendary Pink Floyd , which would be the last performance of Phil Collins with Genesis to the public. Before the concert, Phil Collins informed Tony Banks and Michael Rutherford his personal life, his solo career and alternative projects had been very difficult to manage due to commitments with the band, so let his duties as drummer and singer. Tony Banks Phil Collins informed that the band would continue without him. Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford decided to take a time out of Genesis to work on their projects alternative before seeking a potential new singer and new drummer.

In 1994, Mike Rutherford returned to the studio to work on the fourth album by Mike and The Mechanics , Beggar on a beach of gold . A Paul Carrack and Paul Young were given more creative work and Mechanics The image was a true band in every way. The album's title is based on materialism which they say characterized the 80's. The album was released in March 1995. The first single is called Over My Shoulder and was produced by Mike Rutherford and Christopher Neil, with whom he also wrote other songs on the album. Besides the disc also contained versions of the themes 've really got a hold on me of Smokey Robinson and I believe (When I Fall in Love It Will Be Forever) of Stevie Wonder which Paul Carrack sang who even said he'd always loved: "I remember it well, it was 1972 and I lived in a small room in Camden . I had a small cassette player and bad, and this was one of the few films that had at is very special to me ".. The album ended up having a modest success in Britain , but managed to sell nearly two million copies at munidal. Unfortunately, despite the lower commercial success the single Over my shoulder in Europe, the album was not just commercial recognition, much less than its predecessor.

Having toured Europe to promote Beggar on a beach gold , The Mechanics returned with Hits, a collection of the best songs of his four first album and a new song, a remake of his hit All I need is a miracle sung by Paul Young . Atlantic Records, the label of the band United States, chose not to publish the collection due to weak sales of Word of mouth and Beggar on a beach of go ld, so consequently broke contract with the band (although published later, in 2005, Rhino seal). The Mechanics

again went on tour to promote Europe Hits , and shortly after Rutherford, Carrack and Young took different paths to work on their own projects. Rutherford leg used the time together with Tony Banks hoping to find a new lead singer replacing Phil Collins in Genesis . The choice was Ray Wilson, and he recorded their last studio album Calling All Stations .

In May 1998, members of Genesis , Steve Hackett, Phil Collins , Peter Gabriel, Anthony Phillips and John Silver met Tony Banks and Michael Rutherford in a press conference at Heathrow Airport in England to promote the first set-box of Genesis , Archive 1967-1975 . The box set was released in June of that year and included recordings of rare and unpublished band.

For the box-set, Banks and Rutherford gathered Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel and Steve Hackett to re-record a new version of the song Carpet Crawlers from The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway. This song not part of the box-set, but the compilation published in October 1999, Turn It On Again: The Hits , which reached the Top 5 albums UK, but did not enter the Top 40 United States of , but got to be gold in that country to overcome the sales over 500 thousand copies.

1999 also threw up the publication of the sixth album by Mike and the Mechanics . Mike and The Mechanics (also known as M6 ) meant the return of Paul Carrack and Paul Young on vocals, who also had a more active role in the songwriting process. His first single was called Now That You've gone and had production Brian Rawling, head of the subject Believe of the American singer Cher , considered one of the great songs of that year. Although the album was probably the best of the band's career so far, was not published in U.S. . The band embarked on an extensive tour of Europe , with several sold-out concerts in major venues as the Royal Albert Hall of London .

Unfortunately, the sixth album by Mike and the Mechanics and his tour was overshadowed by the tragedy of the death of singer Paul Young on July 15, 2000, shortly after the end of the tour, of a heart attack in his home in England . Mike Rutherford and Paul Carrack met at a concert in tribute to Paul Young with members of the other side of Paul , Sad Café in the city where he lived in Manchester , before a sold-out crowd.

After the impact of death of Young initially Rutherford and Carrack while the band decided to continue operating, would make no promo tour, but finally decided that they would, as Young wish the group continued without him.

After several months of recording sessions and remixes in the studio, in June 2004 was published, to date, last album Mike and The Mechanics, Rewired in Europe and Asia (in North America it would be in September 2005). On this occasion name Paul Carrack also appeared predominantly in the name of the band, meaning equal role Carrack in the group. This CD presents a special edition on DVD, in which various artists have represented the different video tracks.

Despite the previous decision not to tour without Paul Young , Rutherford and Carrack decided to take a brief tour of Europe to promote the album, including some dates in which they supported to Phil Collins in his First Final Farewell Tour . In March 2005, Live from Shepherds Bush, the first DVD Mike and the Mechanics was published, and he captured images of the band during their tour of 2004, European Tour Rewired. A year later, Paul Carrack announced formally left the band Mike and the Mechanics , ending 20 years of success as fellow Mike Rutherford.

While nobody knows for sure the future of Genesis, the band has left open the possibility of returning to activity. Mike Rutherford continues writing and recording music, but has not released any new studio album since dissolved Mike and the Mechanics . Along with Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins, Mike Rutherford remains one of the most successful artists in solo Genesis world.

regard, Mike declare: "I am currently working on a new album from Mike and the Mechanics . Penas had left parked in this project, but still enjoy writing songs and working with new faces in the band. Paul Carrack is doing solo work, so I had the R & B singer Andrew Roachford . It is a little different, but I enjoy working with him because his soul is noted in the study. "

A new album, The Road , and a new tour, Hit the Road Tour 2011 , were announced in November 2010. The album will be released in April 2011 and it will Andrew Roachford and Tim Howar on vocals, to be followed by a tour of the UK of 22 shows.
