Magnum Moon-- Naturally--In the Arkansas Derby SUNDAY, APRIL 15, 2018 MAGNUM MOON-- FAMED SPORTSWRITER BILL NACK DEAD AT 77 By Bill Finley NATURALLY--IN THE Bill Nack, widely recognized as one of the most talented racing writers of all time, passed away Friday at his home in ARKANSAS DERBY Washington D.C. Nack died following a bout with cancer. He was 77. Best known for his work with Sports Illustrated, where he was employed from 1978 to 2001, Nack covered many sports, but racing was his primary assignment and his first love. His 1990 story Pure Heart on the passing of Secretariat was chosen as one of SI=s 60 most iconic stories. His 1975 book on Secretariat, ASecretariat : The Making of a Champion@ is considered the definitive book on the 1973 Triple Crown winner. ABill was a great reporter, a great writer a great friend, a great colleague,@ said Steve Crist, the former racing writer for the New York Times who later became the publisher of the Daily Racing Form.

Given some rein after a clean dispatch from gate six, Magnum Moon led the Derby field past the post for the first time, with GII Tampa Bay Derby winner Quip to his outside and the ambitiously spotted Machismo (More Than Ready) down to his inner. Tenfold (Curlin) found a good spot just behind that leading trio, while Solomini (Curlin) settled a few places further back before drifting wide on the first turn. Magnum Moon=s opening quarter-mile was :23.34, quick enough on bare analysis, but he managed to accomplish it without overextending himself. In fact, he relaxed further still on the lead, covering an internal half-mile in :50.04, and when Quip tried turning up the pressure on his barnmate at the three- furlong point, Magnum Moon more than had the answers. Saez kicked his mount further in front off the home corner and soon after, Magnum Moon began edging to his right, but the race was in safe keeping.

I=m not going to choke him, I am just going to stay there and he was very comfortable into the turn he was traveling pretty good. When I came to the stretch, I felt like he was looking at the gate marks so when we got there I touched him a little and he went.@ Quip fought on bravely for second, while Solomini endured a brutally wide trip and did exceptionally well to hang on for third. AHe didn=t break as sharply as we would have liked. He was third best today. The winner is a really nice horse.

    "All Pink and Clean and Full of Wonder?" Gendering "Joni Mitchell," 1966-74 Stuart Henderson Just before our love got lost you said: "I am as constant as a northern star." And I said: "Constantly in the darkness - Where 5 that at? Ifyou want me I'll be in the bar. " - "A Case of You," 1971 Joni Mitchell has always been difficult to categorize. A folksinger, a poet, a wife, a Canadian, a mother, a party girl, a rock star, a hermit, a jazz singer, a hippie, a painter: any or all of these descriptions could apply at any given time. Moreover, her musicianship, at once reminiscent of jazz, folk, blues, rock 'n' roll, even torch songs, has never lent itself to easy categorization. Through each successive stage of her career, her songwriting has grown ever more sincere and ever less predictable; she has, at every turn, re-figured her public persona, belied expectations, confounded those fans and critics who thought they knew who she was. And it has always been precisely here, between observers' expec- tations and her performance, that we find contested terrain. At stake in the late 1960s and early 1970s was the central concern for both the artist and her audience that "Joni Mitchell" was a stable identity which could be categorized, recognized, and understood. What came across as insta- bility to her fans and observers was born of Mitchell's view that the honest reflection of growth and transformation is the basic necessity of artistic expres- sion. As she explained in 1979: You have two options.

    Advance Trade Information BOOKS JONI MITCHELL BACKSTAGE PASS Michael A. O’Neill JONI MITCHELL BACKSTAGE PASS Joni Mitchell is Canadian singer-songwriter and one of the most influential musicians of all time. Drawing from folk, pop, rock, and jazz, Mitchell’s songs reflect social and environmental ideals as well as her feelings about romance, confusion, disillusionment, and joy. One of the most important female recording artist of the last 50 years Joni Mitchell began singing in small nightclubs in her hometown of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, and throughout western Canada, before busking in the streets and nightclubs of Toronto, Ontario. In 1965, she moved to the United States and JONI MITCHELL began touring.

  • Safaris to the Heart of All That Jazz
    Safaris to the heart of all that jazz.... JoniMitchell.com 2014 Biography Series by Mark Scott, Part 6 of 16 In January of 1974, Joni began an extensive tour of North America with the L.A. Express, wrapping up with three concerts at the New Victoria Theatre in London, England. The final concert at the New Victoria was videotaped and an edited version was broadcast on the BBC television program The Old Grey Whistle Test in November of 1974. Larry Carlton and Joe Sample were playing with The Crusaders at the time and both opted not to go on the road with Joni and the L.A. Express. Guitarist Robben Ford replaced Larry Carlton and Larry Nash filled in for Joe Sample on piano. In a 2011 interview for JoniMitchell.com, Max Bennett said that although the pay was good for this tour, the musicians could have made more money playing gigs in L.A. and doing session work in the recording studios. Max said that the musicians loved the music, however, and that they were treated royally in every way throughout the tour. Excellent food, first class accommodations, limousines, private buses and private planes were all provided for the band’s comfort. Max also made a point of mentioning the quality of the audiences that attended the concerts. Attention was focused on the performances so completely that practically complete silence reigned in the theaters and auditoriums until after the last note of any given song was performed. For Max Bennett, “As far as tours go - I've been on several tours - this was the epitome of any great tour I've ever been on.
