    Written by: Rob van Oosten Hondsdrafstraat 1 1441 PB Purmerend The Netherlands E – Mail : [email protected] © R. van Oosten 1 Introduction. When I was in training to become a teacher ( In the Netherlands that’s the Teachers Training College ) there was an advertisement for Counselors in the United States. Together with my friend Raymond we applied and after a sollicitation talk and the approval of our college we were allowed to go . Working in a summer camp for about 9 weeks and a round trip for 4 weeks. At that time I was 19 years old and did not spend such a long time away from home. I went to several European countries with my parents and was on a holiday in France with another friend ( for a month) the year before. My parents and girl friend ( Gerda to whom I ‘m married ) did not really like the idea but did not stop me. The experience of working in Camp Hurley is one I will never forget. It was a long and hard summer and I lost beside the sweat also a lot of weight. It was a period in which I foumd out that working together is not as easy as it seems to be, working with children can be difficult and it means that you have to invest in yourself and others. So to work in Camp Hurley with these difficult kids has been fundamental in my life. Every year, maybe every month I think about that period and I tried to go back there 6 years ago.

  • The Twist”—Chubby Checker (1960) Added to the National Registry: 2012 Essay by Jim Dawson (Guest Post)*
    “The Twist”—Chubby Checker (1960) Added to the National Registry: 2012 Essay by Jim Dawson (guest post)* Chubby Checker Chubby Checker’s “The Twist” has the distinction of being the only non-seasonal American recording that reached the top of “Billboard’s” pop charts twice, separately. (Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas” topped the holiday tree in 1942, 1945, and 1947). “The Twist” shot to No. 1 in 1960, fell completely off the charts, then returned over a year later like a brand new single and did it all over again. Even more remarkable was that Checker’s version was a nearly note-for- note, commissioned mimicry of the original “The Twist,” written and recorded in 1958 by R&B artist Hank Ballard and released as the B-side of a love ballad. Most remarkable of all, however, is that Chubby Checker set the whole world Twisting, from Harlem clubs to the White House to Buckingham Palace, and beyond. The Twist’s movements were so rudimentary that almost everyone, regardless of their level of coordination, could maneuver through it, usually without injuring or embarrassing themselves. Like so many rhythm and blues songs, “The Twist” had a busy pedigree going back decades. In 1912, black songwriter Perry Bradford wrote “Messin’ Around,” in which he gave instructions to a new dance called the Mess Around: “Put your hands on your hips and bend your back; stand in one spot nice and tight; and twist around with all your might.” The following year, black tunesmiths Chris Smith and Jim Burris wrote “Ballin’ the Jack” for “The Darktown Follies of 1913” at Harlem’s Lafayette Theatre, in which they elaborated on the Mess Around by telling dancers, “Twist around and twist around with all your might.” The song started a Ballin’ the Jack craze that, like nearly every new Harlem dance, moved downtown to the white ballrooms and then shimmied and shook across the country.

    JOHN BEASLEY GRAMMY-NOMINEE PIANIST / COMPOSER / ARRANGER ******************************************************************************************* “Beasley, the one-time keyboardist for Freddie Hubbard and Miles Davis, reflects a variety of generational influences, incorporating the emphatic chordal clusters of Herbie Hancock, the rhythmic quirkiness of Monk and the lush intelligence of Art Tatum into a highly refined personal voice.” --Los Angeles Times ******************************************************************************************* BIOGRAPHY Grammy-nominated recording artist John Beasley’s music career spans three decades. LA Times jazz critic Bill Kohlhaasee describes Beasley’s music and playing as "a variety of generational influences, incorporating the emphatic chordal clusters of Herbie Hancock, the rhythmic quirkiness of Monk and the lush intelligence of Art Tatum into a highly refined personal voice.” His credits cross the spectrum of the entertainment world: performing, recording, and touring with major jazz, pop, and world artists; composing for hit-TV series; arranging for ensembles and orchestras; working on award-winning films and commercials. With the popularity of reality singing TV shows, Beasley has taken the helm as Music Director for major studio shows. Highlights of Beasley’s multi-track career include: • Pianist/Keyboardist for Miles Davis, Freddie Hubbard, Chaka Khan, Carly Simon, Christian McBride, Dianne Reeves, Kenny Garrett, Stanley Clarke, Lee Ritenour, even a stint with James Brown, Barbra Streisand,

  • SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION 803 By
    SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION 803 By Henry A RESOLUTION to honor the memory of Earl Scruggs, an American musical treasure. WHEREAS, the members of this General Assembly and music fans around the globe were greatly saddened to learn of the passing of bluegrass music legend and American treasure, Mr. Earl Scruggs; and WHEREAS, Earl Scruggs was revered around the world as a musical genius whose innovative talent on the five-string banjo pioneered modern banjo playing and he crafted the sound we know as bluegrass music. We will never see his superior; and WHEREAS, born on January 6, 1924, in Flint Hill, North Carolina, Earl Eugene Scruggs was the son of George Elam Scruggs, a farmer and bookkeeper who played the banjo and fiddle, and Lula Ruppe Scruggs, who played the pump organ in church; and WHEREAS, after losing his father at the age of four, Earl Scruggs began playing banjo and guitar at a very young age, using the two-finger picking style on the banjo until he was about ten years old, when he began to use three - the thumb, index, and middle finger - in an innovative up-picking style that would become world-renowned and win international acclaim; and WHEREAS, as a young man, Mr. Scruggs' banjo mastery led him to play area dances and radio shows with various bands, including Lost John Miller and His Allied Kentuckians. In December of 1945, he quit high school and joined Bill Monroe's band, the Blue Grass Boys; and WHEREAS, with his magnificent banjo picking, the group's popularity soared and Earl Scruggs redefined the sound of bluegrass music, as evidenced on such classic Bill Monroe and the Blue Grass Boys tracks as "Blue Moon of Kentucky," "Blue Grass Breakdown," and "Molly and Tenbrooks (The Race Horse Song)"; and WHEREAS, with his mastery of the banjo and guitar matched only by his beautiful baritone, Mr.

  • Lester -- Raymond
    Lester --Raymond -Flatt, Lester Platt an3 the Nashville Grass. 12 selections (and four "remarlcst'), vocal and instrumental, stereo, liner notes by Lester's manager, Lance LeRoy. @ Flying Fish 015. Flying Fish Records, 3320 N. Halstead, Chicago, 111. 60657. Reviewed by Bill Revill 1 Lester Flatt has been playing professionally for ncarly forty years, and this album of twelve songs tries to act as a retrospect on his career. Backed by his band the Nashville Grass, Flatt runs over sone of the numbers he used to do with Earl 2nd the Foggy Mauntain Boys. The performances are credible, the band is in excellent form (especial1.y Marty Stuart on guitar), and Lester is in fine voice, It is not an outstanding album, except perhaps for the fact that it serves as a review of the career of one of the most important names in bluegrass. Lester Flatt has been around since the beginning of bluegrass, coming into the spot- light in 1944 w11en he joined Bill Nonroe's organization. From 1948 to 1969, Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs were the paramount bluegrass band in the coxntry. Since the breakup, Flatt has retained most of the Foggy p!cuntain Boys, added a couple of members, and continues to play bluegrass. The choice of material centers mostly on old Platt and Scru~gsmaterial ("Cone Back Darling," "Down th'e Road," "A Bundred Years from Now," "Ely Cabin in Caroline,'' "Foggy Mountain Chimes," etc.) and some other songs of historical interest, e.g:, "The Wreck of the Old 97," the first song Flatt learned, and "I'm Gonna Sleep with One Eye Open," a song that was banned from WSM.
