Kasrvnotebook: I Mother Earth headed to Los Angeles in 1992 to record its debut album under former Guns N' Roses producer Mike Clink. During these sessions, Franz Masini was fired, leaving Jag Tanna to re-record the bass parts by himself. Masini was eventually replaced by Bruce Gordon, whose band Rocktopus was breaking up at that time. With the lineup solidified, the band hit the road in an intensive international tour to support its debut, Dig, in mid-1993. Considered an anomaly in the "alternative" era and often mistaken for heavy metal, the album combined old-school hard rock with grooves, long jams, psychedelic lyrics, and the Latin-based percussion of Luis Conte and Armando Borg. Dig spawned four singles: "Rain Will Fall" and "Not Quite Sonic", released that year; and "So Gently We Go" and "Levitate", released in 1994. All four garnered respectable radio and video airplay in Canada, as well as rotations in the U.S. and Europe. The album itself won a Juno Award in 1994 for Best Hard Rock album, beating out IME's childhood idols Rush for the award. This cemented a long relationship between the two bands, which started with IME opening for Rush the night after the Junos. Dig was a gold record in Canada. After the exhaustive touring ended, IME ended up in different studios in Toronto and Morin Heights, Quebec in 1995. In these studios, the band worked on its second album, co-produced by Jag Tanna and Paul Northfield, who was most noted for producing Rush. Daniel Mansilla replaced Borg on percussion, and became the band's permanent touring percussionist. Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson also made a guest appearance on the song "Like a Girl". However, signs of dissension in the band were already showing. For the first time, Edwin revealed to the music press that he had no creative control in the band and that such a situation gave him "no reason to be here" (sic). Still, he remained with IME as the group recorded Scenery and Fish, released in mid-1996. The album, which combined IME's trademark sounds with a slightly softer, radio-friendly approach, was a critical and commercial success. In particular, the singles "One More Astronaut" and "Another Sunday" pushed the band into the commercial elite in Canada, while "Used to Be Alright" and "Raspberry" also made solid showings on radio and video. IME was nominated for a 1997 Juno Award for Group Of The Year. The album was nominated for the Best Rock Album Juno, and was a double platinum record in Canada. The band's newfound fame also pushed sales of Dig over the platinum record mark. In November of 2003, I Mother Earth performed a special show in Barrie, Ontario, entitled "Live off the Floor". Largely considered by those present as their greatest live performance, the intimate, nearly four-hour show featured the band performing in the round of the Georgian College venue, with the crowd on all sides. IME played most of its back catalogue at the show, and it was the band's final performance. Following the band's breakup, Brian Byrne started a solo career. Bruce Gordon joined the Blue Man Group lineup. He is also playing with both the funk band Hot Fo' Gandhi and the garage jazz band The Tiny Specks. Jagori Tanna is a record producer, working with bands such as Clarknova and Dodger at The Mother's Hip studio in Toronto with his new label, UpperLeftSide music. Christian Tanna has been organizing local Toronto rock and jazz events, and is involved with Jagori in UpperLeftSide music in a management role. for more info: http://www.myspace.com/imotherearthband "Don't expect a lot from this show." Was the unofficial motto of KASR VIDEO, which made a pleasant surprise when we actually knocked out a great show! The program was a weekly 2 hour public access offshoot of the Arizona State University's original alternative radio station that aired in Phoenix. The music video show featured rarely seen videos and "new" music not in the "main stream." Along with non-conventional interviews it became a decent way to nurse a hangover with the midnight party crowd. These clips are edited as a sort of best of; minus the music videos. for more info on ASU Student radio goto: http://www.theblaze1260.com
