CD Review in Country Update Magazine Issue 44 April 07
By Kim Cheshire

“Shaking Up The Mystery” - Shane Flew – Regal Records(MGM)

Considering how long he’s been a part of the Sydney music scene you could still be excused if you’ve never heard of him because Shane Flew has spent the last twenty five years playing other peoples music.

As a live/session drummer/singer he has played with The Flood, Graeme Connors, Troy Cassar-Daley, Normie Rowe, Alex Smith and many others.

He has played and sung on over forty albums, recorded countless jingles and soundtracks but having developed a passion for songwriting and a new found confidence in fronting a band rather than driving it from the drum stool, he decided to adjust the emphasis from drummer who sings to singer/songwriter who drums and the results are impressive indeed. I realized on first listen to Shaking up the Mystery that his first solo venture ‘7,000 Miles’ in 2002 was really just a rough outline of what he is capable of.

This is the kind of album you don’t hear much of these days, it’s not rock, country, blues, jazz or any of the genres really, yet it contains elements of them all, the songs are well written lyrically and musically, they are sung with authority and the whole thing is suffused with an enthusiastic energy.

There’s a hint of Bruce Hornsby here and there, I occasionally hear a Gerry Rafferty influence in the vocal, a little Matt Finish or UK Squeeze in the band and with the assorted vocal contributions from an array of Sydney luminaries, the Beach Boys certainly have to get a nod.

The album has a strong focus, the songs sit together really well, the production by Sydney session guitarist Rex Goh although a little old school is well considered and appropriate, the arrangements are imaginative and there’s some excellent contributions from some of Sydney’s finest musicians.

The songs cover a variety of topics from the philosophical the political, the positive the cynical, innocence, lost love, found love and even a song about neither called ‘This is Not a Love Song’.
The lyrics are smart, literate and mostly literal and the tunes which cover a variety of rock, pop, New Orleans and country rock style grooves don`t always go where you expect but still linger and the whole thing is as solid as a rock…pre U2 rock that is!

Addendum
I have a theory that before U2 most rock music was constructed in a particularly traditional manner dating back to the early days of rock-n-roll. With the advent of the U2 approach, along with open tunings, simple guitar figures enhanced by digital effects, and a particular set of production values they almost single-handedly re-invented rock music and just about every post U2 alternative/mainstream rock act today carry elements of their template. The more traditional approach, still found in country, most roots music and older style rock and Blues acts, has become it seems, a dying art.

Apart from the current crop of retro style rock acts a la Jet, The Strokes, Wolfmother etc the approach that gave us bands like the Beatles, the Stones and the majority of 60s and 70s music in general is rarely heard on contemporary commercial radio anymore, a world dominated by post U2 rock, mindless Australian Idol style pop(I prefer pap) and electronic dance based grooves.

Hello all,
Hope this email finds you well!
As usual the artwork for the new CD is taking a little more time than I
expected, with a second version of the front and back cover now being
finalized. Still hoping for a distribution deal with a small label.

More travelling for me this month with gigs in Gosford, Canberra & Milton,
along with an invitation to play percussion and guitar with the Blue Moon
Boys (Mark Punch & Michael Vidale) at The Bald Rock Hotel in Balmain on the
7th.

Also a special show for kids at the Kangaroo St Youth Centre in Manly. This
will be both instructional or educational and entertaining and I hope a
lot of fun for the kids!

I`'m back at the Nags Head in Glebe (solo) twice this month and continue the
monthly residency at Chatswood RSL with my band (Mark Punch, Matt Fell &
Glen Wilson) on Friday 20th,7:30pm-10:30pm

I have attached the flyer for the next Eagles tribute show at the Basement
on Friday November 3rd. My good friend Bernie Segeden is joining the
team, I`m looking forward to it very much! Tickets are selling fast, book now
if you want to come!

We have added some new photos to the Image Gallery on my website, 2 taken
by Phil Jaket at Terrey Hills Tavern and one by Jim Baker, taken at the
Basement. If you have a shot or two that you think is good then please
email it to me and I will upload it to the site!
We have also added a new CD cover to the History Page."Frenze" the new one
from my good friends the Fiddlers Feast.
I played drums, percussion, harmonica and sang backing vocals on some tracks
on this fine album!
http://www.shaneflew.com/
I look forward to seeing you at a gig real soon!
all the best Shane

With their last album release in 2003 - “Eagles – The Very Best of” (Warner Strategic) and their farewell tour currently under way in the UK – this may just be the closest you get to the real thing.

It will be a sad day when Tim, Joe, Don & Bernie (the Eagles) lay down their guitars – but their music will live on. Timothy B. Schmit, Joe Walsh, Don Henley & Bernie Leadon have, throughout their time as “the Eagles”, also branched off to record their own albums along the way – so maybe there’ll be more of that to come in future.
For more information about the Eagles and what they are up to, check out their very cool and different web site: www.eaglesband.com.

In the mean time, come and enjoy all the songs you love and sing along with the best Sydney musicians together in one place.
