    EVERLYPEDIA (formerly The Everly Brothers Index – TEBI) Coordinated by Robin Dunn & Chrissie van Varik EVERLYPEDIA PART 2 E to J Contact us re any omissions, corrections, amendments and/or additional information at: [email protected] E______________________________________________ EARL MAY SEED COMPANY - see: MAY SEED COMPANY, EARL and also KMA EASTWOOD, CLINT – Born 31st May 1930. There is a huge quantity of information about Clint Eastwood his life and career on numerous websites, books etc. We focus mainly on his connection to The Everly Brothers and in particular to Phil Everly plus brief overview of his career. American film actor, director, producer, composer and politician. Eastwood first came to prominence as a supporting cast member in the TV series Rawhide (1959–1965). He rose to fame for playing the Man with No Name in Sergio Leone’s Dollars trilogy of spaghetti westerns (A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly) during the 1960s, and as San Francisco Police Department Inspector Harry Callahan in the Dirty Harry films (Dirty Harry, Magnum Force, The Enforcer, Sudden Impact and The Dead Pool) during the 1970s and 1980s. These roles, along with several others in which he plays tough-talking no-nonsense police officers, have made him an enduring cultural icon of masculinity. Eastwood won Academy Awards for Best Director and Producer of the Best Picture, as well as receiving nominations for Best Actor, for his work in the films Unforgiven (1992) and Million Dollar Baby (2004). These films in particular, as well as others including Play Misty for Me (1971), The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976), Pale Rider (1985), In the Line of Fire (1993), The Bridges of Madison County (1995) and Gran Torino (2008), have all received commercial success and critical acclaim.

  • “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.

  • Who's Who in A&R at CAPITOL CAPITOL A&R — WEST COAST
    Who's Who In A&R At CAPITOL INTRODUCTION: In examining A&R at Capitol Records it is interesting to note that, although each division (West Coast, East Coast, Nashville & Canada) are autonomous, there is considerable intra-office travel and communication. Each area is very much a part of the whole as the directors move freely between each other's offices, including Nashville and Canada. Furthermore, in discussions with Rupert Perry, he stresses the relationship between A&R and Business Affairs and the con- siderable help both Bob Young, V.P. of Business Affairs, and Arny Holland, Director of Business Affairs, offer. What follows is a brief rundown of the people who work in A&R for Capitol Records and a little background on each. CAPITOL A&R — WEST COAST RUPERT PERRY: V.P., A&R THELMA LEEMANS: Secretary to Rupert Perry Rupert started as a musician, whose first "job" in the music industry was in the background music library for Campbell-Conolly Music Publ'g. in England, In 1969, he moved over to help set up a publishing company for Radio Luxemborg, Louvingny Music, where he worked as Pro- fessional Manager until mid 1970. In Jan., 1971 he joined EMI L TXD. as personal assistant to the Group Director of Records, L.G. Wood. In May of 72, he moved to Capitol Records in the U.S. as Director of International A&R. Remaining with Capitol Records in the states, he was shifted to assist the Executive V.P. and Chief Operating Offices of Capitol Records, U.S. and from there moved to the position of General Manager of A&R under Al Coury.

Ultimately, this study argues, the relationship between commercial film and popular music led, in the late 1960s and early 1970s, to the emergence of New Hollywood, a term which encompasses both aesthetic and economic considerations, and which still describes contemporary commercial film production.
