  • Songs of Sinatra Steve Tyrell

    Songs of Sinatra Steve Tyrell

    Songs of Sinatra Steve Tyrell I never met Frank Sinatra, but I wish I had. Frank created a genre of musical expression that has remained timeless and everlasting, and unlike the disposable pop culture of today will live forever as long as it has a chance to be heard. Frank Sinatra and his music have no expiration date; they are always cool and current. He sang the great songs and expressed the words in a way that makes the listener understand the intentions of the songwriter. I only met the Sinatra family after I started to make my standards albums. I received a very complimentary message after my second album "Standard Time" from Frank Sinatra, Jr. He told me how much he liked my first two albums and encouraged me to continue doing what I was doing. He complimented my vocal approach, my arrangements and the musicians I chose to use on those albums, many of whom he knew personally and had worked with his father. Nancy Sinatra had also gone way out of her way to encourage me and compliment my standards albums. We have become great friends and have often played the same venues around the country as I have also done with Frank, Jr. Tina was the next family member to encourage me, and we have become very good friends. She comes to my performances and has always referred to my albums and performances "as me keeping their music alive." Imagine, me keeping Frank's music alive: quite an encouraging statement, but that's what Tina, Frank and Nancy have told me ever since I started making my standards albums.

    Free, M. (2015) Don't Tell Me I'm Still...Pdf

    Pre-publication version. This is scheduled for publication in the journal Critical Studies in Television, Vol. 10, Summer 2015. It should be identical to the published version, but there may be minor adjustments (typographical errors etc.) prior to publication. Title: ‘Don’t tell me I’m still on that feckin’ island’: Migration, Masculinity, British Television and Irish Popular Culture in the Work of Graham Linehan Author: Marcus Free, Mary Immaculate College, University of Limerick – [email protected] Abstract The article examines how, through such means as interviews and DVD commentaries, television situation comedy writer Graham Linehan has discursively elaborated a distinctly migrant masculine identity as an Irish writer in London. It highlights his stress on how the working environment of British broadcasting and the tutelage of senior British broadcasters facilitated the satirical vision of Ireland in Father Ted. It focuses on the gendering of his narrative of becoming in London and how his suggestion of interplays between specific autobiographical details and his dramatic work have fuelled his public profile as a migrant Irish writer. Graham Linehan has written and co-written several situation comedies for British television, including Father Ted (with Arthur Mathews – Channel 4, 1995-98); Black Books (with Dylan Moran – Channel 4, 2000-2004 (first series only)); The IT Crowd (Channel 4, 2006- 13); and Count Arthur Strong (with Steve Delaney – BBC, 2013-15). Unusually, for a television writer, he has also developed a significant public profile in the UK and Ireland through his extensive interviews and uses of social media. Linehan migrated from Dublin to London in 1990 and his own account of his development as a writer stresses his formation through the intersection of Irish, British and American influences.
