Certain acts reap the lion's share of the bounty, and this year's ACM sales bump continued that trend. Only the top 10 titles on the Current Country 75 scanned over 10k product. Here's a summary of how they fared: Lady Antebellum Crazy Heart Sdtrk (No. 1, +27%, +17.5k unit) (No. 6, +200%, +11.5k unit) Zac Brown Band Taylor Swift (No. 2, +26%, +6k unit) (No. 7, +1%, flat) Miranda Lambert Colt Ford (No. 3, +105%, +13k unit) (No. 8, debut 14.5k) Willie Nelson Laura Bell Bundy (No. 4, debut 18k) (No. 9, -9%, -1.5k) Carrie Underwood Alan Jackson (No. 5, +54%, +6k unit) (No. 10, -33%, -5.5k) The above list separates along the following lines. The New movie Flicka 2 was screened in Nashville last night (4/27) at the two debuts, Willie and Colt were likely helped by robust Belcourt Theatre. The film, directed by Michael Damian (Moondance Alexander), a continuation of the popular 2006 Flicka that starred Tim post-ACM traffic, but were not part of the telecast and McGraw, features country legend Clint Black.

Photo: Alan Mayor Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert, the Crazy Heart soundtrack, Zac Brown Band and Carrie Underwood were the big unit increase winners (in that order.) All were part of the broadcast in some way. Gains for Laura Bell sales were also off as her top ranking track "Today Was A Bundy, featured prominently in the first ACM half hour, are Fairytale" rode down the Country Digital Tracks list to No. 7 harder to gauge since it was the second week for her new with a drop of 18%. CD which normally would be expected to plummet 50-65%. A few shout-outs are in order for ACM performers Instead it dropped only 9% which means her performance outside the Top Ten, but who received encouraging sales definitely helped. Alan Jackson, didn't appear at the show, reactions; Brad Paisley (36%), Luke Bryan (49%), and suffered this week as consumer's attention was directed Gloriana (36%) and Joey + Rory (117%). to the bright lights on the silver screen. Somewhat confusing is Taylor Swift's 1% increase. Digital Only This marks the first time we have seen a flat response from Of note are digital only releases from The Band her fans after an elaborate TV performance. Indeed, her CD Perry (wk 3, 1,600) up 225% due to strong iTunes banner is now mature at 76 weeks and has already sold a whopping support for the CD and single; and Whitney Duncan (debut 5.8 million copies.

  • Legally Blonde: Introduction
    Being true to yourself never goes out of style! WINNER BEST NEW MUSICAL 2011 OLIVIER AWARD EDUCATION KIT AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE SEASON • SYDNEY LYRIC LegallyBlonde.com.au facebook.com/ legallyblondemusical @legallyblondeoz Legally Blonde: INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION This teacher’s guide has been developed as a teaching tool to assist teachers who are bringing their students to see the show. This guide is based on Camp Broadway’s StageNOTES, conceived for the original Broadway musical adaptation of Amanda Brown’s 2001 novel and the film released that same year, and has been adapted for use within the UK and Australia. The Australian Education Pack is intended to offer some pathways into the production, and focuses on some of the topics covered in Legally Blonde which may interest students and teachers. It is not an exhaustive analysis of the musical or the production, but instead aims to offer a variety of stimuli for debate, discussion and practical exploration. It is anticipated that the Education Pack will be best utilised after a group of students have seen the production with their teacher, and can engage in an informed discussion based on a sound awareness of the musical. We hope that the information provided here will both enhance the live theatre experience and provide readers with information they may not otherwise have been able to access. Legally Blonde is an uplifting, energising, feel-good show and with that in mind we hope this pack will be enjoyed through equally energising and enjoyable practical work in the classroom and drama studio. 1 Legally Blonde: INTRODUCTION LEgally Blonde Education Pack CONTENTS PAGE INTODUCTION 1.

  • Billy the Kid & the Murder of Morris Bernstein
    Billy the Kid & the Murder of Morris Bernstein By Jerry Klinger An Eastern city Jew goes West in search of a mystery Morris Bernstein was born in London, Feb. 11, 1856. He was murdered at the South Fork of the Tularosa River, near the Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation Agency at Blazer's Mill, New Mexico, August 5, 1878. I first learned of the murder of Bernstein in a history of the Lincoln County Wars in which Billy the Kid figured prominently. Frontier New Mexico in the 1870's was populated by colorful figures that did not belie the imagery of the American Western movies, Hoodoo Brown - also known as Hyman G. Neal, William Bonny - Billy the Kid, Morris Bernstein, a.k.a. Maurice J. Bernstein. My wife and I went to Lincoln, New Mexico for a weekend at a lovely bed and breakfast, five star cooking, lounging and history savoring. We were going to stay at the Ellis Country Store. Yes, Billy the Kid did sleep there once is their motto. My wife was going to lounge. I was going to find out what was a nice Jewish boy doing on the frontier, in the middle of a war between ranchers and merchants over power and control, getting himself shot. Morris came to Santa Fe, N.M., in the spring of 1873. He found work as a bookkeeper with a Jewish merchant network under the Seligman brothers. Jews had first come to New Mexico, probably, as hidden Jews in the 1600's with the Spanish explorers and settlers. Today it is very popular for New Mexican's to discover their "converso" origins.

  • “The Stories Behind the Songs”
    “The Stories Behind The Songs” John Henderson The Stories Behind The Songs A compilation of “inside stories” behind classic country hits and the artists associated with them John Debbie & John By John Henderson (Arrangement by Debbie Henderson) A fascinating and entertaining look at the life and recording efforts of some of country music’s most talented singers and songwriters 1 Author’s Note My background in country music started before I even reached grade school. I was four years old when my uncle, Jack Henderson, the program director of 50,000 watt KCUL-AM in Fort Worth/Dallas, came to visit my family in 1959. He brought me around one hundred and fifty 45 RPM records from his station (duplicate copies that they no longer needed) and a small record player that played only 45s (not albums). I played those records day and night, completely wore them out. From that point, I wanted to be a disc jockey. But instead of going for the usual “comedic” approach most DJs took, I tried to be more informative by dropping in tidbits of a song’s background, something that always fascinated me. Originally with my “Classic Country Music Stories” site on Facebook (which is still going strong), and now with this book, I can tell the whole story, something that time restraints on radio wouldn’t allow. I began deejaying as a career at the age of sixteen in 1971, most notably at Nashville’s WENO-AM and WKDA- AM, Lakeland, Florida’s WPCV-FM (past winner of the “Radio Station of the Year” award from the Country Music Association), and Springfield, Missouri’s KTTS AM & FM and KWTO-AM, but with syndication and automation which overwhelmed radio some twenty-five years ago, my final DJ position ended in 1992.
