Long before he joined Bruce member Springsteen’s E Street Band album, Garry Tallent played his bass guitar to the traces boss of 1950s rockabilly, R&B, and blues that emanated from the radio stations broadcasting near the Jersey shore cities that would at some point make he and The Boss’ bandmates world-well-known.

Mr. Tallent’s present-day solo album, “Break Time,” can pay homage to that ’50s sound, with Mr. Tallent and his backing musicians, not a lot covering as channeling the likes of Elvis Presley and Chuck Berry on cuts like “Ooh La La” and “Bayou Love.”

“The album is my homage to the rock ‘n’ roll that I fell in love with as a kid,” Mr. Tallent, 67, instructed The Washington Times through phone earlier than taking the level at Daryl’s House Club, a juke joint in upstate New York owned by way of Daryl Hall of Hall & Oats repute. “They’re original songs but arranged in that ’50s rock, New Orleans R&B, Memphis rockabilly [style]. Not doo-wop, but loose.”

Mr. Tallent and his band will take the stage at AMP by using Strathmore in North Bethesda, Maryland, Sunday evening, where they intend to recreate the sounds of the era of poodle skirts and leather jackets, but in a modern atmosphere.

“No rely upon how tough I attempt to reproduction a person’s work, it continually comes out filtered through me,” Mr. Tallent said of his unique compositions. “So you simply [take] what you sound [like] and go with that.”
Unlike the theatrics and friendly motels accompanying Mr. Tallent’s globetrotting with Mr. Springsteen, his solo tour is a considerably humbler affair, seeing him playing to hundreds or even dozens versus the rabid.

In the world of music, the year 2016 started with sadness. At the start of the second week in January, David Bowie passed away just a few days after his 69th birthday.

The demise of other rock icons soon followed as we lost Glenn Frey of the Eagles and Dale “Buffin” Griffin that very same month. Before the year ended, fans had to say final goodbyes to Prince, Leon Russell, and Paul Kantner.

Fortunately, Bowie left us with a new studio album that was released just before his death. Titled Black Star, the album certainly shone a light for the rest of 2016 for music fans.

Here are the fifteen best albums that were released in 2016.
