It reached No. 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in 1966 and No. 8 in the UK in early 1967. The song was rumored to be about smoking dried banana skins, which was believed to be a hallucinogenic drug in the 1960s, though this aspect of bananas has since been debunked. According to Donovan's notes, accompanying the album Donovan's Greatest Hits, the rumor that one could get high from smoking dried banana skins was started by Country Joe McDonald in 1966, and Donovan heard the rumor three weeks before "Mellow Yellow" was released as a single.

  • 'Happiness Runs' to Cleveland
    'Happiness runs' to Cleveland By Ron Johnston Donovan, the pop folk singer of the 1960s, appeared to be wearing a “night gown” on the big stage. That was my first “live” look and impression of the troubadour from Scotland from high up in the cheap seats at Cleveland’s Public Hall in October of 1969. With me that school night in the big city were Blamo and Becca. I probably paid for the tickets, because it was my idea in the first place to see Donovan in concert. Blamo was a Heidelberg soccer teammate, and Becca, my fiancee. A couple of years earlier, Donovan had been on tour and was scheduled to perform in northeast Ohio, but a broken leg on the pitch at the University of Toledo spoiled my plans. Not having a car, transportation to Cleveland was initially a priority. In a recent conversation, Blamo mistakenly thought we’d hitchhiked to the concert. But no, I was able to borrow some wheels, thanks to Jim Young. Thing is, I hardly knew Young, who was a year behind me at Heidelberg. We may have been in the same political science class. Anyway, Young was Donovan interacts with fans after a from Sandusky, and he had this white, light-colored concert in Columbus, Ohio, in 1986. Volkswagen that he was willing to lend to me for the evening. I know I didn’t really want to thumb my way to Cleveland. So, hurrah! Jim Young to the rescue! Fortunately, back in high school, I learned how to drive on a standard shift/stick.

  • Class of 1984 – 30Th Reunion
    Class of 1984 – 30th Reunion “30th Reunion Weekend Extravaganza” The Class of 1984 “30th Reunion Weekend Extravaganza” began with a Kick-Off “Meet and Greet” at the Annual Homecoming Football Game on October 10, 2014. The Lecture Hall became a room full of Griffins with many staff members stopping by to visit and reminisce. Saturday night was filled with dinner and dancing at The Crystal Point in Point Pleasant, with music by their very own Bobby Fontinelli and the band Sneekbox. The water- view room was glowing with blue and white lights and memorabilia from their old Alma Mater …everything from old uniforms, newspaper articles, and photos. Class members experienced fun and smiles in the photo booth. They strolled down memory lane as they watched a video montage of their four years, up on the big screen! Their final celebration was held at Jenkinson’s Pavilion with brunch and a trip down the boardwalk on Sunday. The reunion was spear headed by Ann Michele Thompson Sayers, Mercedes Nola, Michael Fogarty, Andrea Crowley-Papageorgiou, Tom Lebel, Mark Malland, Terri O’Neil, Sean Asay, Lisa Carny - Kay and Tony Fevola. The Class of 1984 raised $2,186 which they generously donated to purchase 2 lamp posts for the high school in honor of the friends that left this earth too soon: Tommy Gilroy, Pete Fanuele, Charlie Bitter, Gary Washburn, and Dawn Sutter. The Class of 1984 has created a Scholarship Fund to continue the legacy the way their high school taught them!!!

  • Ecological Models of Musical Structure in Pop-Rock, 1950–2019
    Ecological Models of Musical Structure in Pop-rock, 1950–2019 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Nicholas J. Shea, M.A., B.Ed. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2020 Dissertation Committee: Anna Gawboy, Advisor and Dissertation Co-Advisor Nicole Biamonte, Dissertation Co-Advisor Daniel Shanahan David Clampitt Copyright by Nicholas J. Shea 2020 Abstract This dissertation explores the relationship between guitar performance and the functional components of musical organization in popular-music songs from 1954 to 2019. Under an ecological theory of affordances, three distinct interdisciplinary approaches are employed: empirical analyses of two stylistically contrasting databases of popular-music song transcriptions, a motion-capture study of performances by practicing musicians local to Columbus, Ohio, and close readings of works performed and/or composed by popular- music guitarists. Each offers gestural analyses that provide an alternative to the object- oriented approach of standard popular-music analysis, as well as clarification on issues related to style, such as the socially determined differences between “pop” and “rock” music. ii Dedication To Anna Gawboy, who is always in my corner. iii Acknowledgments Here I face the nearly insurmountable task of thanking those who have helped to develop this research. Even as all written and analytical content in this document is my own, I cannot deny the incredible value collaboration has brought to this inherently interdisciplinary study. I am extremely fortunate to have a small team of individuals on which I can rely for mentorship and support and whose research backgrounds contribute greatly to the domains of this document.
