Wavelength/July 1984 3 july news scarface Splits. But He'll Be Back If you've been wondering what happened to Tom "Scarface" Clif­ ford and his band of mighty frat rockers, The Mistreaters, Tom had to take a summer break to support his education habit. "My dad called from D.C.," explained Big Tom, "and said, 'Son, are you coming home for the summer?' and I said, 'Well, dad, I'd really like to stay down here and play music.' And he said, 'Can you make enough money to stay in school playing music?' and I said 'Well, dad, we don't play every night, it's more like once a week, y'know?' and he said 'Well you better come home for the summer and get a decent paying job.' and I said 'Yeah, dad, I guess I'd better." But don't fear, fellow Mistreat­ ees, Tom and his brothers will be back on the boards this fall ... and back in the books. -rico Bluesrockers copies in two weeks from the its Spanish mood from Ruffner's Willie Cole comprise Ruffner's bandstand," Ruffner explains, slide tuning and melody: "That polished rhythm section.

Well, local pickerswill be happy to Jearn that a trip to Foster's Custom Finishes and Repair will no longer mean squeezing themselves and their axe into a closet-sized showroom. Jimmy and Vernon and Gene have recently added a new, spacious showroom with room for over a hundred guitars to their shop and they can still lay claim to having the best, and only, sales and repair shop in town devoted exclusively to guitarists and their beloved in­ struments. -rico 4 Wavelength/July 1984 EGYPTIAN DAY at the world's Fair is July 23.

    1 2 Playlist Sept. 13th 2015 9AM/OPEN The Beatles - I’m Only Sleeping - Revolver (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John Written by John and Paul at Kenwood, John’s estate in Weybridge, in one writing session. Recording of the backing rhythm track began at 11:30 p.m. on April 27, 1966. John recorded his lead vocal on April 29. Both the vocal and backing track were recorded at variable speed. It was during the recording of “I’m Only Sleeping” that The Beatles discovered the “backwards guitar.” On May 5, 1966, as the band continued working on the song, George painstakingly transcribed the notes in his guitar solo and flourishes and then wrote them out backwards. He then played them in that reverse order. The tapes were then superimposed BACKWARDS in the mix, playing the solo notes and embellishments in the correct order, but maintaining the eerie backwards sound. “I’m Only Sleeping” was one of three songs issued in America six weeks prior to their official release in the UK. American and Canadian Beatles fans heard “I’m Only 3 Sleeping,” “And Your Bird Can Sing,” and “Doctor Robert” first on Capitol Records’ “Yesterday And Today” album, issued June 20, 1966. The rest of the world had to wait until the first week of August for them to appear on the “Revolver” LP. On U.S. album: Yesterday And Today - Capitol LP The Beatles - Fixing A Hole - Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: Paul On February 9, 1967, the Beatles recorded “Fixing A Hole” at Regent Sound Studio on Tottenham Court Road in London.

  • Collection Highlights
    COLLECTION HIGHLIGHTS “LATINOS AND BASEBALL” COLLECTING INITIATIVE Latino baseball players have been interwoven in the fabric of Major League Baseball for years. They've been some of the greatest, well-known names in baseball history. To reflect and celebrate that rich history, the National Museum of American History (“NMAH”) in collaboration with the Smithsonian Latino Center, launched Latinos and Baseball: In the Barrios and the Big Leagues. The multi-year community collecting initiative focuses on the historic role that baseball has played as a social and cultural force within Latino communities across the nation. The project launched a series of collecting events in late February in San Bernardino, California. A second event will be held in Los Angeles on July 17, 2016, and a third will be held in Syracuse, New York, on September 15, 2016. The events are designed to generate interest in the initiative, build on community relationships, record oral histories, and identify objects for possible acquisition by local historical associations as well as for the Smithsonian collections. The collaborative initiative seeks to document stories from across the U.S. and Puerto Rico and plans to collect a number of objects that could include baseball equipment; stadium signs; game memorabilia, such as handmade or mass-produced jerseys and tickets; food vendor signs; home movies; and period photographs. Curators will select objects based on the stories they represent and the insight they provide into the personal, community, and national narratives of the national pastime. “Baseball has played a major role in everyday American life since the 1800s, providing a means of celebrating both national and ethnic identities and building communities,” said John Gray, director of NMAH.
