      Petri Walli was a a singer/quitarist/songwriter in Kingston Wall.

  • @lasselahti4056
    @lasselahti4056 Před 4 lety +59

    To be noticed, Petri Walli was head of the band, Singer AND guitarist. He also played with totally ownkind of style, where he played "both" guitars with one guitar. And actually he REALLY had only one guitar. Even in gigs. He only had one les paul and if string were broken, drummer (Sami Kuoppamaeki) just had to play solo with drums, so that Petri got his string changed. Kuoppamaeki has later told that "sometimes it seemed that Petri liked my solos so much that he was slow by purpose changing his string. :) Petri Walli was genious. He just played with too much acid, and hanged out too much with Finnish occultists, like Ior Bock. That is story of its own that Petri actually never totally shared with his bandmates. To be honest I have always seemed something similar amongst Petri Walli and Syd Barrel...

    • @ark-mark1
      @ark-mark1 Před rokem

      Ior Bock was a gay and prone to sexual harrassing, luring to bed and raping young men which later came to his demise. He could have had his effect on Petri´s depression. Imagine thinking of going to lighten your soul on spiritual acid/drugs session and instead of spiritual wakening, waking up next to nude Ior.

    After 4 years you have done this reaction of Kingston Wall i found this and i salute you my good man! You helped to spread music of KW❤ it's quite sad that band wasnt ever so popular than it was after Petri Walli's death...but music still lives on!
    I saw JJylli & Sami (Kuoppis) Kuoppamäki plays music of Kingston Wall with friends at in Kuopiorock one week ago.
    There was Mikko Von Hertzen (they are by the way brilliant musicians, Von Hertzen Brothers) and Esa Holopainen (Amorphis, wich Petri had a plan to do something together), just for few to mention.
    Petri Walli wasnt only a head of the band, songwriter, guitarist and singer...he was also a producer of KW, they had their own record label called Trinity and there is producer called Pedro Cucaracha wich was Petri.
    Thank you and greetings from Finland!

    Finnish musician Sakari Kukko is not member of the band, but plays sax and clarinet on some of their songs. Kukko is probably most renowned of his ethnic/jazz/progressive rock band Piirpauke, but to my knowledge he came via Amorphis, as he plays sax and flute on some of their albums.

    This is my all time favorite from this incredible band that had it´s candle blown much too soon. Had a privilege to see the Kingston Wall Experience gig in rockfest thursday of 2019 in Hyvinkää Finland. It was collaberation of living memebers of KW Jukka Jylli and Sami Kuoppamäki (Propably the best backbone for a rock band in history of music) and good friends of Petri, Von Herzen Brothers band. Propably the closest experience to KW live you can ever get. It sure was magical evening, even though it wasn´t the real deal but good damn it worked.

    Lol, Hidria Spacefolk guitarist is my cousin.. it is a small country and small circles.. And Circle is definitely one band worth to listen ;) Without Kingston Wall there would be no Hidria Spacefolk that is 100% certain as Kingston Wall opened the doors for Finnish psychedelic rock. And who can forget Wigwam, Tasavallan Presidentti and Piirpauke, the latter is Hasse Walli's band, brother of Petri Walli. Their song Konevitsan Kellot is HUGE influence on all of us in that space and can be heard in many, many Kinston Wall songs, this being one of them. The use of saxophone can be traced to those three bands from the 70s i mentioned.

    I have a suggestion for you: Brand X. It's a jazz fusion band formed in the mid '70s and notably featuring Phil Collins on the drums on their early albums. I only know the first one, 1976's Unorthodox Behaviour, but I think it might interest you. I suggest the album opener Nuclear Burn, the title track or Smacks of Euphoric Hysteria, but really the whole album is solid.

He openly made godlike persons the rockers who had died young at the top of their world.

The first one is probably on CZcams. You have t endure a bit of nonsense at the start but the music is wonderful.
