Howard Jones was one of the defining figures of mid-’80s synth-pop. Jones’ music merged the technology-intensive sound of new wave with the cheery optimism of hippies and late-’60s pop. Jones racked up a string of hits in the mid- and late ’80s before he retreated into being a cult figure in the ’90s. Several years ago he was a part of one of the best line-ups for Ringo Star’s All Star band. Get this line-up….Ringo, Greg Lake (Emerson Lake & Palmer) , Roger Hodgson (Supertramp’s singer songwriter), Ian Hunter (Mott The Hoople), Mark Rivera on Sax (Billy Joel), Sheila E on percussion and Howard Jones on synth. Since that tour Howard Jones has been back on the touring circuit. His show at Anthology was huge arena type sound in the most intimate of venues

With its roots in gospel, doo wop, and the sophisticated jazz-influenced singing groups of mid-century America like the Hi-Los, the a cappella vocal group Take 6 is both a throwback to an earlier, more genteel era of American music and a precursor for a number of black male pop groups of the ’90s, such as Boyz II Men. Take 6 laid down their smooth romantic rhythms at Anthology

Click here to check out Cheryl Spelts‘ great photos of Ryan Star live at Anthology - Dec 10, 2008.

Cheryl Spelts writes on her blog:

Last night I got to attend Sophie @ 103.7’s Green Christmas - an acoustic event in San Diego, benefiting the San Diego Oceans Foundation. Ryan Star played a VIP event before the main concert, and as far as I’m concerned, it was the highlight of the night! …. The headliner was Alanis Morissette, and Buckcherry, O.A.R., Justin Nozuka, and SafetySuit were also on the bill - so it was a great show! And it took place at my new favorite venue, Anthology on India Street, downtown. They have the best sound system I’ve ever experienced. I was there for soundcheck and the sound of one guitar being tuned, was so magnificent, if was heartbreaking. Even in the bathrooms the sound quality is that good.

Gavin Rossdale performed live at Anthology on July 17 as part of the SOPHIE’S LOUNGE Private Concert series. Click here to view the full photo gallery.

You know how every now and then you here about these obscure intimate concerts that usualy go on during the day when youre at work. Usualy its a show before the night of a show type of show. And usually with a radio station putting it on Anthology has put on a bunch of these this summer, in cojunction with FM Sophie@103.7 The best of these….oh yes and let me say Anthology has transformed themselves for these shows. They went from classy Jazz Club setting to….classy intimate lounge setting But the best of these shows for my money was Gavin Rossdale. Formerly of the group BUSH and now doing his solo thing, performed at Anthology in a sort of “Story Tellers” type of show, where the Sophie DJ would ask questions to Gavin between songs. And please dont call Gavin “Mr. Gwen Stefani”…..for Gavin its alllll about the music. The DJ lady resisted the temptation to go down the “Hows Gwen ” route….which did keep it all about the music He passionately played some BUSH and some of his new stuff.

Don’t miss the video!

Ottmar Liebert already has this special sound to his guitar. Besides that great musicianship…..he also wins ‘best intimate candles on the stage thing with a Persian rug’, over any artist, at his Anthology show this summer.
