The men quickly formed into squads and rushed into cars for the "night ride". Two of the cars, in advance of the others, reached a dark, lonely spot on Dix Road on the outskirts of Detroit. The other cars were apparently delayed by the opening of the River Rouge bridge. Seven occupants of the cars jumped out and went into a huddle. They spoke in low tones and repeatedly turned to look back on the road to see if other cars were coming. Their special concern was a car with black robes, hoods and rope required for a "necktie party". For that is what it was to be. "Well, I guess they must have got lost", said "Colonel" Harvey Davis, a tall, lanky, rat-faced creature. Then, turning to a short, stocky member of the party, he commanded: "Dean, get Poole out." Dean instantly drew two revolvers and stepped toward one of the cars. "Poole, come out of that car!" he said.

    Journal on the Art of Record Production » Artist Co-Management for th... http://arpjournal.com/886/artist-co-management-for-the-world-building-a... Issues Content Search About Contact Contribute ISSN: 1754-989 Guy Morrow Issue 5 | Conference Papers | July, 2011 Introduction This article draws an analogy between open-source software development and artist co-management networks, networks that form a platform for the facilitation of artists’ song writing and record production efforts. In the international popular music industry, the online environment is leading to more pressure being placed on artists and managers, rather than record labels, due to the fragmentation of the media landscape and the downsizing of recording labels. This is affecting the way in which song writing and record production are facilitated. In order for artist managers to help their clients to build and maximize their recording careers, the volatile environment that record labels are in means that artist managers must engineer new methods to effectively resource their clients’ album production. As the artist management role becomes even more central it brings extra overheads and responsibilities. An international network of co-managers is a possible solution for increasing management service provision for artists in this context. This is a context in which there is a lot more work for artist managers to do that perhaps requires expertise that artist managers do not necessarily have individually. This will arguably lead to the need for greater scale, particularly when artist managers are dealing internationally in order to assist their client’s song writing and record production efforts. This could lead to artist management becoming corporatized, or to the development of an extensive international co-management network (or both).

  • HIGH SOUTH a Change in the Wind with Impressive Three-Part Harmonies, a Dedication to Songwriting, and Unwavering Optimism
    HIGH SOUTH A Change in the Wind With impressive three-part harmonies, a dedication to songwriting, and unwavering optimism, the Nashville-based band High South has developed a dedicated following across Europe, where they’ve been touring regularly there since 2015. Now they’re breaking into the American market with A Change in the Wind, a captivating project that draws comparisons to classic rock bands like the Eagles, Doobie Brothers, and Crosby, Stills and Nash. The group – composed of Jamey Garner, Kevin Campos, and Phoenix Mendoza – sums up it this way: “As vocalists we are always drawn to harmony. It’s such a naturally pleasing sound that we're absolutely hooked on -- and it was never more prevalent than the 1970s. Every kid learns from their environment and we were all fortunate to have parents that exposed us to the music of this era. In a sense, it’s in our soul.” With a desire to carry on that iconic ‘70s vibe, High South teamed with producer Josh Leo, known for his work with Glenn Frey, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Jimmy Buffett, and Kim Carnes, as well as No. 1 hits for country artists Love & Theft and Emerson Drive. Other collaborators on A Change in the Wind include engineer Niko Bolas (Neil Young, Don Henley, Warren Zevon), guitarist Jack Pearson (Allman Brothers Band), keyboard player Tony Harrell (Flying Burrito Brothers), drummer Nir Z (Genesis), and singer Raul Malo (The Mavericks). Although the band released several singles internationally through Universal Germany, A Change in the Wind is their first release with distribution in America.

  • "Under the Star of the Guard" 1*13
    "UNDER THE STAR OF THE GUARD" The Story of the Black Legion Mark S. English 1*13 Preface The Ku Klux Klan and the Black Legion, two super-patriotic fraternal organizations, had cyclical success during the years 1865-1938. The K.K.K. dates back to sometime between Christmas 1865 and June, 1866 when it began as a small group of defeated Confederate soldiers in south central Tennessee. It eventually grew into a national organization that is active today. The Black Legion was a spin-off of the K.K.K. and was active from 1924 or 1925 to 1938, primarily in Ohio and Michigan. The organizations had similarities and differences. One overriding theme was that both were secret societies that believed in the preservation of nativism, as both groups were against anyone who was not native-born, Protestant, and with white Anglo-Saxon ancestry. Some differences between the two groups were in their recruitment tactics, monetary goals of their leaders, and the severity of violence used to carry out their agendas. The first two chapters of this thesis provide an overview of the Ku Klux Klan. The remaining chapters focus on the rise and fall of the Black Legion. It is my sincere hope that this thesis may shed some light upon the American myth of equality for every citizen, regardless of race, color, gender, or creed. 2 Chapter One "JUST HAVIN' SOME FUN" Southern chivalry and the ante-bellum way of life had suffered through the turbulent years of the Civil War. The defeat of the Confederacy in 1865 was followed by Radical Reconstruction.
