The eternal teenager of American rock, Jonathan Richman, presents his latest album in the Auditorium of Murcia (13/03/2009)

The seats cost 15 Euros |

There are times that a proposal is so strong that innovation would be an unforgivable mistake.

The Jonathan Richman would be the perfect example.

The former Modern Lovers retold with those elements that have made him popular among lovers of singer-songwriters less languid and comes to the Auditorium and Congress Center Víctor Villegas Murcia to present his latest work "Because her beauty is raw and wild" . The concert will be tomorrow, Saturday March 14 at 21:30 pm in room Miguel Angel Clares.

The seats cost 15 Euros.

Composer and guitarist, Jonathan Richman is one of the most unique personalities has given the American rock scene.

Founder of The Modern Lovers, a group that shared time and how to understand music to The Velvet Underground, was also one of the fathers of the punk scene of England in the 70's.

Its theme Roadrunner is considered one of the first punk songs, and has been covered by bands like Sex Pistols, Pablo Picasso and his song was also played by musicians as diverse as David Bowie or Iggy Pop. In 2008, released two albums, Because Her Beauty Is Raw and Wild, and What do we come but to fall?, which dares to sing in Castilian, Italian and French, in a new experiment of the many he has done in his career.

Jonathan Richman is a legend, but there's more.

The fact that on her myspace, which in reality is not yours, nor does it define web-like "guitar, singer and dancer" is no accident.

Anyone looking at a youtube video of Jonathan Richman will find in one of his improvised and chaotic dance on stage.

Eternal adolescent-like, eccentric and brilliant, Richman dazzles and shows why it takes more than thirty years composing and displaying their music.

A tour of Spain which begins March 7 in Madrid and promises fun and good music in equal parts, what tomorrow brings Murcia to present their latest work.

"Because Her Beauty Is Raw and Wild" proves once again that you can sing and be ironic indifference or sometimes the sound is not at odds with the electric guitar riffs.

And that is, using the same proposal but always daring to show new color notes as macaronic accents in Spanish and French.

So we explained that a typical folk singer has little.

Richman has spent years fighting against the loss of that innocence and what it entails.

Their weapons are the records and direct.

"Because Her Beauty Is Raw & Wild" is a new statement.

A new song to the lost innocence, to that magic in which we no longer believe in that black humor that seems childish.

The album, recorded as usual by Richman and drummer Tommy Larkins inseparable, will be the fourth that the ex-The Modern Lovers releases through Neil Young's label, Vapor Records.
