The Arts Page 8, the Retriever, December'9, 1974 Lightfoot, Ringo, Average White, Bowie the Arts Page 8, The Retriever, December'9, 1974 Lightfoot, Ringo, Average White, Bowie... Sinatra? By Neal McGarity Gordon Lightfoot was not at his best here at UMBC, 'but at least he was the first to admit it. After re-staring three of the first seven songs, Lightfoot shrugged his shoulders and sighed, "It looks like it's going to be one of those nights again." Lightfoot's performance here last Saturday was hampered a bit by Gordon's pre-show celebrating. His onstage in­ toxication prjvented the musical precision that he is vridely known for. Though he was . not rude, his performance was insulting to his true ability. He had a better time with the audience than with his guitar. Lightfoot knew that he was misbehaving. Between songs he com­ mented, "The press have been calling me 'coarse' as of late. I hope nobody here gets that impression." Ten minutes later he did a song entitled, "I Love Your Tits More Than Any Udder." Lightfoot was not coarse, just a bit silly and stewed. N~ar the beginning of the show, Gordon rightfully complained that the heating system was interfering with his sound. After the system was shut off, Lightfoot explained why--'~My road manager made the electrician an offer he couldn't de-fuse." Between songs Gordon freely conversed with the audience, though most of his rambling was not music­ related. Somehow, he worked the Alaskan Pipeline and the Arabs into his show. The musical fare that Lightfoot offered was quite pleasant, though abundant in flaw. Gordon blew an awful lot of chords, missed a lot of words, and started a few NOT COARSE songs completely over. It was tough ... but silly and stewed gettir~g into his music. He would frequently utter an "Oh shit!" in the middle of a 'in his mouth. Be looks very much like his beard and gazed away again.

  • Bright Tunes Music V. Harrisongs Music
    420 F.Supp. 177 United States District Court, S. D. New York. BRIGHT TUNES MUSIC CORP., Plaintiff, v. HARRISONGS MUSIC, LTD., et al., Defendants. No. 7 1 Civ. 602. | Aug. 31, 1976. | As Amended Sept. 1, 1976. OPINION AND ORDER OWEN, District Judge. This is an action in which it is claimed that a successful song, My Sweet Lord, listing George Harrison as the composer, is plagiarized from an earlier successful song, He’s So Fine, composed by Ronald Mack, recorded by a singing group called the “Chiffons,” the copyright of which is owned by plaintiff, Bright Tunes Music Corp. He’s So Fine, recorded in 1962, is a catchy tune consisting essentially of four repetitions of a very short basic musical phrase, “sol-mi-re,” (hereinafter motif A),1 altered as necessary to fit the words, followed by four repetitions of another short basic musical phrase, “sol-la-do-la-do,” (hereinafter motif B).2 While neither motif is novel, the four repetitions of A, followed by four repetitions of B, is a highly unique pattern.3 In addition, in the second use of the motif B series, there is a grace note inserted making the phrase go “sol-la-do-la-re-do.”4 My Sweet Lord, recorded first in 1970, also uses the same motif A (modified to suit the words) four times, followed by motif B, repeated three times, not four. In place of He’s So Fine’s fourth repetition of motif B, My Sweet Lord has a transitional passage of musical attractiveness of the same approximate length, with the identical grace note in the identical second repetition.5 The harmonies of both songs are identical.6 *179 George Harrison, a former member of The Beatles, was aware of He’s So Fine.

  • Billy Preston
    Billy Preston Billy Preston was a soul singer and pianist who, in addition to having a successful solo career, collaborated with some of the greatest names in the music industry, including the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Little Richard, Ray Charles, George Harrison, Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, Sam Cooke, Sammy Davis Jr., Sly Stone, Aretha Franklin, the Jackson 5, Quincy Jones, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Often called “the Fifth Beatle,” this former child prodigy left one of the most profound and prolific legacies in music. William Everett Preston was born in Houston, Texas in 1946. He began playing piano at age three, and by ten he had joined the band of gospel great Mahalia Jackson. At age twelve he appeared in the 1958 film St. Louis Blues, portraying blues composer W.C. Handy as a young man. In the 1960s Preston performed with Little Richard and Ray Charles, and became a regular singer and pianist on the ABC television series Shindig. Preston went on to a successful career as a session musician, including lending his talents to the Beatle’s Let It Be album. That collaboration led to his signing to the Beatles’ Apple label, and in 1969 his solo effort, produced by George Harrison, was released. The album That's the Way God Planned It and the single of the same name met with limited success, but in 1972 he released an instrumental funk single, "Outa-Space," that reached #2 in the U.S. and won the Grammy award for Best Pop Instrumental Performance. Over the next two years, Preston enjoyed more number one hits including "Will It Go Round In Circles" and "Nothing From Nothing." He was the first guest musical artist on the premier episode of the popular TV show Saturday Night Live.

While in LA working on the soundtrack for the Raga film, Ravi informed George of the atrocities occurring in his native India. Leon Russell, who played keyboards on the session, contributed the idea for the “story” introduction to the song. The song included George, Eric Clapton, Ringo, Bobby Keys, Billy Preston and Leon Russell. Although the lineup is disputed by Jim Horn, who recalls that himself, George, Leon Russell, Klaus Voorman and Jim Keltner were present. voice break The Beatles - I Should Have Known Better - A Hard Day’s Night (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John Following their triumphant visit to America The Beatles were thrust back to work.
