  • Midnight Special Songlist
    west coast music Midnight Special Please find attached the Midnight Special song list for your review. SPECIAL DANCES for Weddings: Please note that we will need your special dance requests, (I.E. First Dance, Father/Daughter Dance, Mother/Son Dance etc) FOUR WEEKS in advance prior to your event so that we can confirm that the band will be able to perform the song(s) and that we are able to locate sheet music. In some cases where sheet music is not available or an arrangement for the full band is need- ed, this gives us the time needed to properly prepare the music and learn the material. Clients are not obligated to send in a list of general song requests. Many of our clients ask that the band just react to whatever their guests are responding to on the dance floor. Our clients that do provide us with song requests do so in varying degrees. Most clients give us a handful of songs they want played and avoided. Recently, we’ve noticed in increase in cli- ents customizing what the band plays and doesn’t play with very specific detail. If you de- sire the highest degree of control (allowing the band to only play within the margin of songs requested), we ask for a minimum of 100 requests. We want you to keep in mind that the band is quite good at reading the room and choosing songs that best connect with your guests. The more specific/selective you are, know that there is greater chance of losing certain song medleys, mashups, or newly released material the band has.

In fact, the two styles have many parallels. Both were created by African- Americans in the southern United States in the latter part of the 19th century and spread from there in the early decades of the 20th century; both contain the sad sounding “blue note,” which is the bending of a particular note a quar- ter or half tone; and both feature syncopation and improvisation. Blues and jazz have had huge influences on American popular music.

    By:AADuncan S.C.R.ANo.A12 CONCURRENT RESOLUTION 1 WHEREAS, Texas is well known for its pioneering musical 2 talent, and The Crickets are among those Texas legends who grew to 3 symbolize this brilliant creative spirit; and 4 WHEREAS, Originally formed in Lubbock by Buddy Holly, J.AI. 5 Allison, and Joe B. Mauldin, the group went on to include Sonny 6 Curtis, Niki Sullivan, Tommy Allsup, and Earl Sinks; and 7 WHEREAS, The Crickets were one of the first rock and roll 8 bands to be self-contained, writing, playing, producing, and 9 recording their own material; and 10 WHEREAS, Beginning in 1957, hits such as "That 'll Be the 11 Day," "Peggy Sue," "Oh Boy," "Not Fade Away," "Maybe Baby," "It 's So 12 Easy," "I Fought the Law," and "More Than I Can Say" established The 13 Crickets as a leading rock and roll band that would become known the 14 world over; and 15 WHEREAS, By solidifying the rock and roll instrumental format 16 of bass, guitars, drums, and vocals, and writing their own 17 material, The Crickets provided a blueprint and inspiration for the 18 Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and virtually every major rock band 19 that came after them; and 20 WHEREAS, Nearly 50 years later, The Crickets continue to 21 record and perform, and their songs are considered rock and roll 22 standards as evidenced by their release last year of "The Crickets 23 and Their Buddies," an all-star collection of The Crickets playing 24 their songs with such talented musicians and friends as Rodney 79R9007 MW-D 1 S.C.R.ANo.A12 1 Crowell, Waylon Jennings, John Prine, Phil and Jason Everly, Eric 2 Clapton, and Nanci Griffith; now, therefore, be it 3 RESOLVED, That the 79th Legislature of the State of Texas 4 hereby pay tribute to The Crickets for their many contributions to 5 Texas music and recognize March 16, 2005, as The Crickets Day in 6 Texas in their honor; and, be it further 7 RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 8 prepared for the members of The Crickets as an expression of high 9 regard by the Texas Senate and House of Representatives.

  • Organic Voodoo Soup!!
    Welcome to a spoonful of Organic Voodoo Soup!! LOS PLANTRONICS’ brand new recordings have arrived fresh from the mixing desk, a revolutionary blast from the future and the past. The self explainery title of the album is “ORGANIC VOODOO SOUP” which has turned out to be a bigger, wider and a more wholesome record than their earlier works. In a way, this album has a more focused vision of a proper long play, as opposed to a collection of good songs. Their murky swamp rock sound contains a variety of influences; - garage- soul-boogaloo, electric swamp-R&B, Sun studio gospel-billy, Stax (studio) instrumentals, Chess recordings, Byrds-psychedelia, Memphis horns, Blaxploitation, space-surf guitars, biker-soundtracks, Hammond grooves, spaghetti-westerns, campfire guitars, Mariachi brass, New Orleans funk, Latin jazz, Asian mountain-music, American crime-writers and 1500 century painters! If you dig organic music and recordings you will dig this and with a gumbo of different influences the album is one big pot of boiling Organic Voodoo soup! All ”basic tracks” is recorded live at Parachute studio w/Roar Nilsen as engineer and the elite of Norwegian musicians contributes to the album (Cumshots, El Cuero, Shit City, Grand Café, Nora Noor, Raga Rockers), as well as the African congas player Tabu S. Omari and the vocal group Suspicious Four. Tape-virtuous Don Dons (psychedelic guitar rocker in WE) mixed the album down to 2 inch tape. LOS Plantronics doesn’t sound like anybody else! They never did…But this time they have really outdone themselves and challenged the listener with more complex songs, detailed orchestrating and arranging.
