  • Ctba Newsletter 1412
    Central IBMA Member Vol. 36 No. 12 Texas Bluegrass December 1, 2014 CTBA Year-end Wrap-up by Stacy Holt, President Now that 2014 is winding down, I thought I would take this time to look back at our CTBA year in review. I am proud of our accomplishments and what our CTBA board and members did this year. First, we found a new home for the CTBA Sunday jam at Hill’s Cafe. What I hear from most folks is that it has been a great success. Lots of jamming space available and great drinks and food available have made for a good time. Hill’s has definitely made us feel at home and has done an excellent job with the two other events we held there this year. Our Willa Beach-Porter Scholarships were given to three very deserving kids. Brothers Ethan and John-Samuel May attended Camp Bluegrass as a part of their scholarships. Ryan Chatterjee was our other recipient. He attended Gerald Jones’ Acoustic Music Camp in Arlington. I have met these young men and their families and can safely say, this is by far the best way our membership dol- lars are spent. To see fine young people continue the love and spreading of bluegrass music brings a great joy. CTBA was at the forefront of the Llano Blue Bell Bluegrass Festival with great thanks to our own webmaster, Jeff White. Jeff was once again in charge of booking acts for the festival and chose a fantastic line-up from CTBA bands. I strongly encourage you to attend next year’s event.

  • University Microfilms International 300 North Zeeb Road Ann Arbor, Michigan 48106 USA St
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand marking: or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Bio 2018 Charlie Daniels
    CHARLIE DANIELS Bio 2018 www.charliedaniels.com www.twitter.com/charliedaniels www.youtube.com/charliedanielsvideos www.facebook.com/charliedanielsband www.instaGram.com/thecharliedanielsband From his Dove Award winning gospel albums to his genre-defining Southern rock anthems and his CMA Award-winning country hits, few artists have left a more indelible mark on America’s musical landscape than Charlie Daniels. An outspoken patriot, beloved mentor to young artists and still a road warrior at age 80, Charlie has parlayed his passion for music into a multi-platinum career and a platform to support the military, underprivileged children and others in need. Raised among the longleaf pines of North Carolina, Charlie began his career playing bluegrass music with the Misty Mountain Boys. After moving to Nashville in 1967, he began making a name for himself as a songwriter, session musician and producer. Elvis Presley recorded a tune Charlie co-wrote titled “It Hurts Me,” which was released on the flip side of “Kissin’ Cousins.” He played on such landmark albums as Bob Dylan’s Nashville Skyline and tried his hand at producing the Youngbloods’ Elephant Mountain and Ride the Wind. His own unique voice as an artist emerged as Charlie recorded his self-titled solo album in 1970 for Capitol Records. Two years later he formed the Charlie Daniels Band and the group scored its first hit with the top ten “Uneasy Rider.” Since then the CDB has populated radio with such memorable hits as “Long Haired Country Boy,” “The South’s Gonna Do It Again,” “In America,” “The Legend of Wooley Swamp” and of course, his signature song, “The Devil Went Down to Georgia,” which won a Grammy for Best Country Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group in 1979 as well as single of the year at the Country Music Association Awards.

It’s been really interesting to view the wide range of responses from our readers: what one loves, another despises. We know that extreme reactions indicate passion, and we want to encourage that...without provoking bloodshed, of course! Our columnists represent a diversity of topics and viewpoints, something for everyone. This issue, Seth Godin writes about the joys of teetering on the edge of control. Richard Murison samples the subject of sample rates. Dan Schwartz looks back at his development as a professional bassist, and his part in a legendary recording. Lawrence Schenbeck revisits the concept of The Shock of the New, as it applies to music.

  • A Piece of History
    A Piece of History Theirs is one of the most distinctive and recognizable sounds in the music industry. The four-part harmonies and upbeat songs of The Oak Ridge Boys have spawned dozens of Country hits and a Number One Pop smash, earned them Grammy, Dove, CMA, and ACM awards and garnered a host of other industry and fan accolades. Every time they step before an audience, the Oaks bring four decades of charted singles, and 50 years of tradition, to a stage show widely acknowledged as among the most exciting anywhere. And each remains as enthusiastic about the process as they have ever been. “When I go on stage, I get the same feeling I had the first time I sang with The Oak Ridge Boys,” says lead singer Duane Allen. “This is the only job I've ever wanted to have.” “Like everyone else in the group,” adds bass singer extraordinaire, Richard Sterban, “I was a fan of the Oaks before I became a member. I’m still a fan of the group today. Being in The Oak Ridge Boys is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.” The two, along with tenor Joe Bonsall and baritone William Lee Golden, comprise one of Country's truly legendary acts. Their string of hits includes the Country-Pop chart-topper Elvira, as well as Bobbie Sue, Dream On, Thank God For Kids, American Made, I Guess It Never Hurts To Hurt Sometimes, Fancy Free, Gonna Take A Lot Of River and many others. In 2009, they covered a White Stripes song, receiving accolades from Rock reviewers.
