Al meer dan 50 jaar is Jan Akkerman een van de beste en bekendste  gitaristen van Nederland. Naast een bepalende rol in wereldwijd bekende  bands als Focus en Brainbox heeft hij ook gewerkt met artiesten als B.B.  King, Charlie Byrd, Cozy Powell, Claus Ogerman & Ice-T. Op zijn  solo-platen laat Akkerman zijn creativiteit de vrije loop en combineert  hij met gemak Rock, Jazz, Blues, Classics & Dance terwijl zijn  karakteristieke sound altijd herkenbaar blijft.

Opnames The Golden Years Of Dutch Pop Music concert op CD+DVD

De helden van de Nederpop uit de sixties en seventies kwamen onlangs bijeen tijdens The Golden Years Of Dutch Pop Music Live. De CD+DVD van dit door Johan Derksen gepresenteerde concert verschijnt op 6 juli.

The Golden Years Of Dutch Pop Music Live vond plaats op 29 april in een uitverkocht Hart van Holland in Nijkerk. Naast George Baker en Peter Koelewijn gaven de Pioniers van de Nederpop Rudy Bennett (The Motions), Frans Krassenburg (Golden Earrings), Theo van Es (The Shoes) en Johnny Kendall acte de présence, aangevuld met ‘special guest’ Dave Berry, die indertijd met songs als This Strange Effect, Little Things en Now met name in de lage landen grote hits scoorde.

Het evenement is vernoemd naar The Golden Years Of Dutch Pop Music, de onder liefhebbers zeer gewaardeerde cd-reeks die de geschiedenis van de Nederlandse popmuziek in kaart brengt. "Beter dan ooit wordt de Nederpop heruitgegeven in Golden Years", schreef De Volkskrant eerder. "De reeks is verslavend (…) stiekem wil je alle delen in huis hebben". De serie telt inmiddels liefst 63 delen en er zijn al meer dan 120.000 exemplaren van over de toonbank gegaan.
