    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.

Six years in a row in the 1960’s and early 1970’s, the Grammy for “Record of the Year” went to Wrecking Crew recordings. And now, THE WRECKING CREW tells the story in pictures and that oh, so glorious sound. The favorite songs of a generation are all here, presented by the people who made them for you. THE WRECKING CREW is a documentary film produced and directed by Denny Tedesco, son of legendary late Wrecking Crew guitarist Tommy Tedesco. The film tells the story of the unsung musicians that provided the backbeat, the bottom and the swinging melody that drove many of the number one hits of the 1960’s.

  • Interview with Jimmy Wyble
    Jimmy Wyble by Jim Carlton www.jimcarlton.com The Amazing Captain C Chord Jimmy Wyble laughingly calls himself “Captain C Chord,” but I think he has the right to call himself Captain Marvel. He’s perhaps the most genuinely humble person I’ve ever talked to although he’s covered more ground musically than any guitarist I can think of. Early in his career he was an integral part of Bob Wills’ famous western swing band, the Texas Playboys. Later, he moved on to enhance the groups of both Benny Goodman and Red Norvo, among others, and like many of his peers spent years as one of Hollywood’s top studio players busily working recording dates, television shows, commercials and film scores. Not only has his jazz playing influenced countless others but his series of original, inventive and atmospheric guitar etudes have fascinated any number of classical artists. Jimmy’s a complete player with a legacy that’s yet to be totally discovered by the guitar world at large. That’s why it’s my pleasure to share a glimpse of, and I hope some insight to, this player who’s one of the world’s finest jazz guitarists. Many guitar-greats consider Jimmy Wyble a genius talent. Jimmy’s a soft-spoken man without pretense or ostentation. His mild- manned demeanor left me with a sense of his being a focused, centered and creative artist who nevertheless seems truly amazed at his own accomplishments. Few players have had such a comprehensive and interesting background and I sincerely believe he looks back fondly at a blessed and satisfying music career.

Phillips, Associate Dean University Honors College 2 Acknowledgments A special thank you to my thesis mentor John Hill and my second reader Dan Pfeifer for all of their help and support. I also want to say thank you to the faculty at MTSU who helped me out along the way. A thank you to my parents for all of their encouragement and everyone who helped me create this project by playing a part in it. Without your endless support and dedication to my success, this would have never been possible. Abstract Phil Spector was one of, if not the most influential producer of the 1960s and was an instrumental part in moving music in a new direction. With his “Wall of Sound” technique, he not only changed how the start of the decade sounded but influenced and changed the style of some of the most iconic groups ever to exist, including The Beach Boys and the Beatles. My research focused on how Spector developed his technique, what he did to create his iconic sound, and the impact of his influence on the music industry.

  • Beach Boys Edited Studio
    The Beach Boys - The Beach Boys Today! Produced by Brian Wilson Released March 1, 1965 - Capitol T-2269 (EMI) This album marked a turning point in the career of Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys, and proved to be the opening salvo of a triumvirate of longplayers (excluding Party !) that defined their status as premier pop artists on a level with The Beatles. A few of the cuts had been completed in the summer and fall of '64, but the bulk of the album was recorded in the winter months following Brian's retirement from the road. Brian's composing skills had progressed beyond garage band "formula" writing, into the realm of what one might call "orchestrated rock". This was also the album where the scope and sheer musicality of Brian's arrangements necessitated the employment of outside musicians to a greater extent. As Carl put it in a 1981 interview for "Circus" magazine (reprinted in the September 1989 issue of "Guitar for the Practicing Musician"), "By the time of Beach Boys Today , there were a lot of prominent session men on the dates". Having said that, one should not sell short Carl's own contributions; the youngest Wilson (who just turned eighteen that December) had developed as a musician sufficiently to play alongside the horde of high-dollar session pros that big brother was now bringing into the studio. Carl's guitar playing on this album is a key ingredient, and in fact this is the most "guitar heavy" of the Boys' post-surf era albums. In a really cool stroke of programming genius, the album is divided into one side of rockers and one side of ballads (a technique probably inspired by two 1961 albums: the Everly Brothers’ Both Sides of an Evening and Elvis’ Something for Everybody , and one later utilized by The Rolling Stones on their 1981 Tattoo You album, but one which has lost much of its impact in today's CD-orientated world).

Downloaded from http://hdl.handle.net/10072/367243 Griffith Research Online https://research-repository.griffith.edu.au When I Grow Up: The Development of the Beach Boys’ Sound (1962-1966) Volume One Jade Simone O’Regan B.PopMus (Hons) Queensland Conservatorium of Music Griffith University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy December, 2013 2 Abstract The Beach Boys are an American rock group whose career has spanned over fifty years. However, it was between 1962 and 1966 that the group had most of their chart success and that their unique ‘sound’ was crystallised. This study takes a broad, big- picture overview of the Beach Boy’s repertoire from this period and charts the development of their sound through the apprentice-craft-art (ACA) framework. The concept of a ‘sound’ is able to draw together the musical, technological, sociological and historical elements that, when combined, create the sound of the Beach Boys during the 1962-1966 period. The flexibility of this concept means that areas often overlooked in popular music studies and in studies on the Beach Boys in general (particularly the roles of production and instrument types), are able to be woven into analyses of more traditional musical elements (such as song structure or chord progressions).

The group’s leader, Brian Wilson, created one of the most majestic music albums of the twentieth century. Producer George Martin and The Beatles – particular Paul McCartney – were amazed by the quality of the album’s songwriting and production, and were fuelled to go several steps beyond Pet Sounds while writing and recording Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club in 1966 and 1967. Michael Waddacor pays homage to the irresistible “pop genius” of Brian Wilson and his 1966 masterpiece that continues to touch the hearts and souls of a new generation of music enthusiasts. ELEASED by Capitol Records in May 1966, RThe Beach Boys’ finest album, Pet Sounds, remains one of the most enjoyed and eulogised music albums of the twentieth century.
