Black Country-born sixties pop star Nicky James, who shot to fame with The Moody Blues, has died aged 64. Nicky, from Tipton, worked with some of the big names of his day including Denny Laine, Roy Wood, Bev Bevan, Carl Wayne, Mike Pinder, Scott Walker, Tom Jones and Graham Nash. He had been suffering from a brain tumour and died on Monday morning. He was born Mick Nicholls in April 1943 and attended Park Lane School in Tipton. Today his family paid tribute, saying he was a real character and was always cracking jokes. Nicky would joke he got his voice by drinking eye drops as a young boy. He lived most of his young life in Tipton until the age of 16 when he went to Scarborough with his father. However, he would make trips back to Tipton to see his mother Gladys. His sister Pat Coates, who lives in Coseley, said today: "He was a real character. We were very proud when he made his first record. He later moved back to Wiltshire but he always came back to see his mother in Shrubbery Avenue, Tipton. That was where it all started really. He was a lovable rogue." Denny Laine, of Denny and The Diplomats, hired Nicky in the early 1960s after he sang a few songs with the band. Nicky then joined Ronny and The Senators. The Moody Blues, after being signed to Decca Records, enjoyed worldwide fame by the end of 1964 with their recording of Go Now climbing to number one. Nicky leaves wife Martine and children Sami and Louis. - nilita, Moody Blues fan from way back . "Between the silence of the mountains And the crashing of the sea There lies a land I once lived in And she's waiting there for me But in the grey of the morning My mind becomes confused Between the dead and the sleeping And the road that I must choose" From their song: "Question", btw . I believe that one of the legacies of the Moody Blues was the panaply of often hilarious misheard lyrics. Fer instance, from one of my favourites, The Question . someone once wrote they thought "To learn as we grow old, The secrets of our souls" was "To learn as we grow old, The secrets of arseholes." I got to do my favorite Moody Blues joke in a used record store recently. bringing in a bunch of stuff for resale, I noticed a copy of the "Go Now" album atop a stack of LPs that someone else had brought in. I held it up and said "hey, look at this! Denny Laine was in another band before Wings!". r. In fact, I saw Denny Laine singing "Go Now" on a PBS special a few months bringing back the stars of the British Invasion era, all looking a bit longer in the tooth needless to say. That special made me feel all ooshy nostalgic and remembering how much I loved that song. Anyway, here's how he looked at the Las Vegas Beatle Fest this summer singing the ballad in question: - nilita, feeling sappy and tearful . sniff . Like a baseball player that doesn't know when to quit, until he can't get anybody out, the Moodies fall in that category! After Seventh Sojourn it should've been bye-bye. But NO. they had to become a laughing stock of grizzled old men embarrassing themselves in front of audiences trying to capture their lost youth. The magic was gone as well as the song-writing abilities, but they kept going, discrediting themselves to their loyal fans. On the other hand, what else were they going to do, teaching, gardening? It's just pathetic what happens to again rock stars, even the Moody Blues. Nicky James, never had a chance. At least he can say he was never with the Silver Beatles, that would've really hurt. Yes. And whatever combination of instrumentation that once created the "wall of sound" technique. Actually, he never got the chance to shoot to fame with them. he quit the group before they adopted the "Moody Blues" name and started making hits. He did, however, remain friends with the band, and co- wrote all the songs on a 1970s solo album by band member Ray Thomas. Here's a summary of his career from the home page of his website, nickyjamesmusic.com, with a copyright date of 2005: "Nicky James was one of the foremost singer songwriters of the 1960s & 70s when he worked with a who's who of well known personalities and helped to forge some of the greatest ever musical partnerships. Once upon a time there was a young Birmingham musician called Nicky James who played in a band called The Moody Blues Five. One day he decided to leave. The band shortened their name to the Moody Blues and two months later had their first hit 'Go Now'. Undeterred Nicky formed a new band. This time it was called the Nicky James Movement. Once again he left. The band shortened their name to the Move and two months later had their first hit 'Night Of Fear'. Nicky James, you might imagine would have become disillusioned and is now a successful motorway sub-contractor, or perhaps a big name in second hand cars. Not a bit of it. Nicky James remained a force to be reckoned within the flourishing music scene of the 60s and 70s and beyond. And now at the start of the 21st century, Nicky is working in the industry and is set to relaunch a career that dates back to the early rock scene in Birmingham during the late 50s." About Slater’s Silence. Twenty-five years of silence. Slater’s selective mutism and social anxiety have created a life of isolation. His past haunts him. His fears are deeply rooted. But he’s lonely and yearns for companionship. Kaiser craves the simple things in life. The serenity of a quiet lake and a beautiful sunrise calls to him. Among crowds, he is jumpy and always on alert. Anxious. A bi-product of a troubled childhood. No one could understand his struggles. Can two broken men come together and mend each other’s hearts? Slater’s Silence is a 20k novella that can be read independently of the Trials of Fear series or any other Niblet. It is a hurt/comfort short story with mild angst. Slater's Silence by Nicky James. A human catches me doing my "job," and I know I have to protect him. The chatty little human drives me crazy, but the only way to keep him safe is to bring him home with me. But I don't know how long I'm going to make him stay. Check out the beginning of Cyrus and Darren's journey. Koby & the Naked Guy Michele Notaro. What do you do when you find a naked guy inside the tiger cage at the zoo? Follow his crazy butt wherever he may lead you? No? Just me? Working at the zoo as the night guard is typically pretty boring, but when Mr. Nude shows up, everything changes. Who is this guy and why in the world is he naked? Not that I’m complaining since I sorta love looking at him, because holy balls, is he hot. Join Koby & the Naked Guy on their little adventure as Koby discovers who—or what—the guy is while Mr. Nude tries to convince Koby what he truly is to him. James M. Slater.

  • The AGA Song Book up to Date
    3rd Edition Songs, Poems, Stories and More! Edited by Bob Felice Published by The American Go Association P.O. Box 397, Old Chelsea Station New York, N.Y., 10113-0397 Copyright 1998, 2002, 2006 in the U.S.A. by the American Go Association, except where noted. Cover illustration by Jim Rodgers. No part of this book may be used or reproduced in any form or by any means, or stored in a database or retrieval system, without prior written permission of the copyright holder, except for brief quotations used as part of a critical review. Introductions Introduction to the 1st Edition When I attended my first Go Congress three years ago I was astounded by the sheer number of silly Go songs everyone knew. At the next Congress, I wondered if all these musical treasures had ever been printed. Some research revealed that the late Bob High had put together three collections of Go songs, but the last of these appeared in 1990. Very few people had these song books, and some, like me, weren’t even aware that they existed. While new songs had been printed in the American Go Journal, there was clearly a need for a new collection of Go songs. Last year I decided to do whatever I could to bring the AGA Song Book up to date. I wanted to collect as many of the old songs as I could find, as well as the new songs that had been written since Bob High’s last song book. You are holding in your hands the book I was looking for two years ago.

  • ENT Hayward Prepdf
    Twenty-First Century Troubadour: Justin Hayward on French Connections, Songwriting, and Literature Interview with Barbara Havercroft Born in 1946 in Swindon, England, Justin Hayward is the lead singer, song- writer, and guitarist with the legendary band The Moody Blues. His renowned, highly successful career in music is now in its sixth decade, and is characterized by excellence and innovation in popular music. The Moody Blues have sold more than seventy million albums and have been awarded more than a dozen platinum and gold discs. Justin Hayward has also released seven solo albums and has received numerous prestigious awards, such as the Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Achievement in Music, awarded in May 20131. The following telephone interview was conducted at the University of Toronto on Monday, June 10, 2013. Barbara Havercroft §1 After you and John Lodge joined the Moody Blues in August, 1966, the band continued performing the rhythm and blues music played by the previous incarnation of the group. At this point, in the late sixties, you and your four band- mates decided to travel to Belgium to work. Why did you choose Belgium? Were there conditions in Belgium that were conducive to the band’s metamorphosis and the conception of new material, including the Days of Future Passed composi- tions2? Justin Hayward Actually, the band’s metamorphosis came a bit later. You must remember that nothing is planned in this band. We just stumble into things and lucky accidents and great big slices of luck happen to us. So there was no plan. We went to Belgium playing the old rhythm and blues set, which we continued playing for about three or four months after John and I joined [the group] and we simply weren’t very good at it.
