  • Neville Brothers -- the first Family of New Orleans Music -- Has Vowed Not to Return to New Orleans
    Dec. 15, 2005-- Cyril Neville boarded Amtrak's City of New Orleans train with a full head of steam. He joined singer-songwriter Arlo Guthrie earlier this month for the first leg of a 12-day journey from Chicago to New Orleans, playing concerts along the way to raise funds for victims of Hurricane Katrina. Neville, however, won't be on the train when it rolls into his old hometown. He won't be going home at all. Neville, 56, percussionist-vocalist and youngest member of the Neville Brothers -- the first family of New Orleans music -- has vowed not to return to New Orleans. During a heartfelt conversation before embarking on the train journey, Neville explained he and his wife, Gaynielle, have bought a home in Austin, Texas. Cyril Neville joins his nephew Ivan Neville, as well as the Radiators and the Iguanas as popular New Orleans acts who have settled in Austin. Some even perform in an ad hoc band known as the Texiles. They sing a different song about the promised recovery of New Orleans. "Would I go back to live?" Neville asked. "There's nothing there. And the situation for musicians was a joke. People thought there was a New Orleans music scene -- there wasn't. You worked two times a year: Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest. The only musicians I knew who made a living playing music in New Orleans were Kermit Ruffins and Pete Fountain. Everyone else had to have a day job or go on tour. I have worked more in two months in Austin than I worked in two years in New Orleans.

  • Memphis, Tennessee, Is Known As the Home of The
    Memphis, Tennessee, is known as the Home of the Blues for a reason: Hundreds of bluesmen honed their craft in the city, playing music in Handy Park and in the alleyways that branch off Beale Street, plying their trade in that street’s raucous nightclubs and in juke joints across the Mississippi River. Mississippians like Ike Turner, B.B. King, and Howlin’ Wolf all passed through the Bluff City, often pausing to cut a record before migrating northward to a better life. Other musicians stayed in Memphis, bristling at the idea of starting over in unfamiliar cities like Chicago, St. Louis, and Los Angeles. Drummer Finas Newborn was one of the latter – as a bandleader and the father of pianist Phineas and guitarist Calvin Newborn, and as the proprietor of his own musical instrument store on Beale Street, he preferred the familiar environs of Memphis. Finas’ sons literally grew up with musical instruments in their hands. While they were still attending elementary school, the two took first prize at the Palace Theater’s “Amateur Night” show, where Calvin brought down the house singing “Your Mama’s On the Bottom, Papa’s On Top, Sister’s In the Kitchen Hollerin’ ‘When They Gon’ Stop.’” Before Calvin followed his brother Phineas to New York to pursue a jazz career, he interacted with all the major players on Memphis’ blues scene. In fact, B.B. King helped Calvin pick out his first guitar. The favor was repaid when the entire Newborn family backed King on his first recording, “Three O’ Clock Blues,” recorded for the Bullet label at Sam Phillips’ Recording Service in downtown Memphis.

  • The Very Best of Aaron Neville Press Release
    1 THE VERY BEST OF AARON NEVILLE IS FIRST COMPREHENSIVE COLLECTION OF HIS GREATEST RECORDINGS FROM THE ‘60S TO THE ‘90S The most familiar figure of New Orleans’ first family of music, Aaron Neville and his sweet soulful voice have graced recordings for four incredible decades. Yet there has never been a comprehensive collection of his greatest songs. Now there is. The Very Best Of Aaron Neville (A&M/UME), released January 11, 2000, brings together the original recordings of his most popular hits plus other outstanding tracks from his albums and guest appearances on the albums of others. The 18 selections span 37 years, from the Top 40 R&B hit “Over You” (1960) to the biographical “To Make Me Who I Am” from his 1997 A&M album of the same title. Also spotlighted are his #2 pop/#1 R&B classic “Tell It Like It Is” (1966), #2 pop smash duet with Linda Ronstadt “Don’t Know Much” (1989) and his Top 10 solo masterpiece “Everybody Plays The Fool” (1991). Attesting to his continued longevity, many of the songs on this collection are from the ‘90s, the decade during which he enjoyed his greatest commercial success. Featured are songs from each of his four non-Christmas A&M albums of the ‘90s, two of which are platinum (1993’s The Grand Tour and 1991’s Warm Your Heart) and one is gold (1995’s Tattooed Heart). The Very Best Of Aaron Neville includes his take on originals such as “Angola Bound” as well as his inspired versions of such famed songs as “Betcha By Golly Wow,” Bill Withers’ “Use Me,” Chuck Berry’s “You Never Can Tell” and the Peaches & Herb love song perennial “Close Your Eyes” (another duet with Ronstadt).

  • Johnny Cash by Dave Hoekstra Sept
    Johnny Cash by Dave Hoekstra Sept. 11, 1988 HENDERSONVILLE, Tenn. A slow drive from the new steel-and-glass Nashville airport to the old stone-and-timber House of Cash in Hendersonville absorbs a lot of passionate land. A couple of folks have pulled over to inspect a black honky-tonk piano that has been dumped along the roadway. Cabbie Harold Pylant tells me I am the same age Jesus Christ was when he was crucified. Of course, this is before Pylant hands over a liter bottle of ice water that has been blessed by St. Peter. This is life close to the earth. Johnny Cash has spent most of his 56 years near the earth, spiritually and physically. He was born in a three-room railroad shack in Kingsland, Ark. Father Ray Cash was an indigent farmer who, when unable to live off the black dirt, worked on the railroad, picked cotton, chopped wood and became a hobo laborer. Under a New Deal program, the Cash family moved to a more fertile northeastern Arkansas in 1935, where Johnny began work as a child laborer on his dad's 20-acre cotton farm. By the time he was 14, Johnny Cash was making $2.50 a day as a water boy for work gangs along the Tyronza River. "The hard work on the farm is not anything I've ever missed," Cash admitted in a country conversation at his House of Cash offices here, with Tom T. Hall on the turntable and an autographed picture of Emmylou Harris on the wall.
