Chagall Guevara

Chagall Guevara was an American rock band formed in 1989 by solo artist Steve Taylor, backed by other musicians from the Christian music scene in Nashville. This included guitarists Dave Perkins and Lynn Nichols (from the 1970s Phil Keaggy band), bassist Wade Jaynes, and drummer Mike Mead.

The band was named after Communist revolutionary Che Guevara and painter Marc Chagall to imply the meaning "revolutionary art." The group formed in 1989, but broke up in early 1993.

The band first appeared on the soundtrack to the motion picture Pump Up the Volume with a song called Tale o' the Twister. The band's only album, the self titled Chagall Guevara, was released on MCA Records in 1991. The band's only music video, for the song Violent Blue, received a few plays on MTV.

Work on a second album began, but the group broke up while attempting to be released from their contract with MCA Records. Several tracks completed for the second album, along with a November 15, 1991 concert recording, remain unreleased.

Chagall Guevara reunited twice. In 1994, one track, Treasure of the Broken Land, appeared on the Mark Heard tribute albums Strong Hand of Love and the Orphans of God. The band reunited again in Nashville at a private industry party in October, 2005. There were no future plans for the group, however.

‘Music City 411- Robin Gibb Tribute

By: Andrew Vaughan

It’s truly heartbreaking to see the pain Robin Gibb’s family is going through right now. The Bee Gees singer is in a coma after suffering with liver cancer and most recently pneumonia. Of course, several big name pop acts have passed away recently- Davy Jones of The Monkees probably the most recent. Now I knew Davy to talk to but I’d never met his family. Which is why hearing about the Gibb family’s pain surrounding Robin is so difficult to handle.
