  • This Is My Life John Waite
    This is my Life John Waite Over the last few years I have been approached several times to write a book, but the problem was just what to write about. People suggested either Judo or Aikido, but I considered that better people than I had already done this. I decided that I should write something that I could leave to my children, because over the years I have often wondered about my own family history. What I do know is where I was born and where I spent my early childhood. However, I do not know very much about my immediate family. For example, being the youngest in a family of 12, 1 I do not know much about the life and experiences of my brothers and sisters during their early years; and have little knowledge of my parents and even less about my grandparents. For many years my family celebrated my birthday on 29th March, but it was only when my sister Millie took me to Hackney town hall to obtain a replacement birth certificate that we discovered my birth was registered on the 30th! We deduced from this that I was born either late on the 29th or early on the 30th March 1931. 1931 was about the time the country and in fact the world was coming out of the Depression and starting to recover from the Wall Street crash and the considerable debt of WW1 of 1914- 1918. Grandfather on my father’s side was a boilermaker- shipwright and my father followed him into the same trade.

  • Joe Lynn Turner
    JOE LYNN TURNER Joe Lynn Turner, is an American singer, known for his works with hard rock bands Deep Purple & Rainbow. Career In a career that spans nearly 30 years and includes over 60 album credits, Joe Lynn Turner ("JLT") remains one of rock and roll's most distinctive, soulful and expressive vocalists. Born August 2, 1951 in Hackensack, New Jersey (U.S.A.), he played the accordion as a child, grew up with an appreciation for classic Rhythm and Blues (R&B) and became an accomplished guitarist in his early teens. In fact, his first band, Filet of Soul, featured singer J.T. Taylor who would later have success with Kool and the Gang. While in high school, Joe formed Ezra, performing original material and cover songs by artists who were a great influence on him: Jimi Hendrix, Free and Deep Purple. In 1976, JLT enjoyed his first taste of national success with Fandango, a band described as an eclectic mix of R&B, pop, country, jazz and melodic rock. Turner sang and played guitar on all of the band's four albums. Fandango toured with numerous artists including The Allman Brothers, The Marshall Tucker Band, The Beach Boys and Billy Joel. After Fandango split, in the first of two incredible twists of Fate, JLT received a phone call from legendary guitarist Ritchie Blackmore. Turner's work with Fandango prompted an audition and Blackmore was so impressed that he immediately enlisted Joe in Rainbow, a band that he formed after he left Deep Purple. Ironically, Joe spent his formative years covering Deep Purple songs and now he found himself fronting a band with two former members: Blackmore and Roger Glover.

  • MAKING SENSE of the TERMINATION RIGHT: How the System Fails Artists and How to Fix It
    MAKING SENSE OF THE TERMINATION RIGHT: How the System Fails Artists and How to Fix It PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE DYLAN GILBERT 2019 | DEC. MEREDITH ROSE ALISA VALENTIN Acknowledgements The authors wish to thank those who provided thoughtful feedback during the drafting of this paper, including Lita Rosario, Esq. at WYZ Girl Entertainment Consulting, Professor Lateef Mtima at Howard University School of Law, and Jodie Griffin, Deputy Division Chief at the Federal Communications Commission, who provided analysis feedback in her personal capacity as an attorney and musician. The authors also thank Adonne Washington, third year student at the Howard University School of Law, for her helpful research assistance. Executive Summary Hidden inside Title 17 of the United States Code of Laws sits an unassuming but powerful right that Congress gave to artists and creators: the termination right. Unlike many statutory rights, this right is inalienable – it cannot be given away, not even through contract. Many artists enter into deals with companies that help fund, develop, resource, promote, and distribute their creative output. Typically, such deals involve artists granting or licensing the copyright in their work to these business partners for lengthy periods of time; sometimes these transfers are legally binding in perpetuity. The termination right allows authors of creative works to cut short, or terminate, existing grants or licenses of their work after at least 35 years have passed, regardless of their contract terms. Congress justified the creation of the termination right on both economic and moral grounds. The right – codified at Sections 203 and 304 of the Copyright Act – was enacted to protect authors and their heirs against agreements that were unprofitable or inequitable by giving them an opportunity to share in the later economic success of their works.

  • Fter Decades Away from the Music Scene, Guitarist Wally Stocker Is
    fter decades away from the music scene, guitarist Wally Stocker is back on his feet again and back where he belongs, playing lead guitar with a new lineup in The Babys. From 1977 to ’80, the group amassed a string of radio-friendly hits including “Isn’t It Time,” “Every Time I Think of You,” “Head First,” “Back on My Feet Again,” and “Midnight Rendezvous.” A s lead guitarist, S t o c k e r provided the six- string muscle that powered those hits up the charts. Born March 27, 1953, in London, Stocker took up guitar at age nine. A passionate devotee of Free guitarist Paul Kossoff, he honed his chops in short-lived bands Joy and Pegasus. His break came in 1975, when he joined the fledgling The Babys, which included lead vocalist/bassist John Waite, keyboardist/ guitarist Michael Corby, and drummer Tony Brock. Signed to Chrysalis on the basis of a four-song video, the band released five albums – The Babys, Broken Heart, Head First, Union Jacks, and On the Edge – and toured with the likes of Alice Cooper, Cheap Trick, Journey, AC/ DC, and Rush. Wally Stocker The Babys disbanded in December, with a Les Paul 1980, and Stocker went to tour and re- goldtop in 2013. cord with Rod Stewart, Air Supply, and Humble Pie. In 2013, The Babys reunited with Stocker and Brock alongside new recruits lead singer/bassist John Bisaha and guitarist J.P. Cervoni. Last July, the band performed its first gig in almost 33 years. At age 60, Stocker’s playing is remark- ably rust-free – his trademark smoky slow-hand vibrato and chunky rhythm guitar colors proudly intact.

INFRINGEMENT; AND UMG RECORDINGS, INC., a (2) DECLARATORY RELIEF Delaware corporation, and DOES 1 through 10, DEMAND FOR TRIAL BY JURY Defendants. Plaintiffs JOHN WAITE, an individual (“Waite”), and JOE ELY (“Ely”), an individual, (collectively, “Plaintiffs”) on behalf of themselves and all other similarly situated authors of sound recordings (“sound recordings”) who have served Notices of Termination pursuant to §302 of the Copyright Act of 1976 upon Defendant UMG RECORDINGS, INC. (also known as “Universal Music Group and “UMG”) (hereinafter “UMG” or “Defendant”) and DOES 1-10 (collectively “Defendants”), allege as follows. NATURE OF THE ACTION 1. Since the first Copyright Act was enacted in 1790, that Act, and the several successive copyright statutes have always had a feature which allows a second chance for authors (or their heirs) to reclaim copyrights from unwise grants made by authors early on in their careers, close to the creation of the works. While the particular features of those laws, and the length of the terms and statutory scheme of the terminations involved, have changed and evolved, the strong “second chance” concept has remained. In fact, the very first act, the Copyright Act of 1790, borrowed that concept from the English Statute of Anne, enacted in 1709, the first copyright law. The theme continued in the Copyright Acts of 1831, 1870, and 1909.
