  • Georgie Fame
    Georgie Fame Born on 26th June 1943 in the industrial town of Leigh, Lancashire, his interest in music grew from family entertainment “sessions” at home and musical evenings in the church hall across the street, where his father played in an amateur dance band. Although he took piano lessons for a short time at the age of seven, it wasn’t until the advent of rock’n’roll on radio during the mid-fifties that young Georgie began to take the family piano seriously. Fats Domino, Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard were among his catalysts. Upon leaving school, shortly after his fifteenth birthday, he followed the family tradition and took a job as an apprentice cotton weaver in one of the many local mills. Leisure time, however, was spent playing piano in various pubs and with a local group, “The Dominoes”. In July 1959, at a summer holiday camp, Georgie was spotted by Rory Blackwell, the resident rock’n’roll bandleader, who offered the young singer/pianist a full time job. Goodbye, weaving shed. Rory and the Blackjacks departed for London, their hometown, when the summer season ended prematurely and Georgie went with them. The promised glamorous work did not materialise and the band broke up, but the determined young man from Leigh eventually took up a solo residency at The Essex Arms pub in London’s Dockland, where the kindly landlord provided a room to sleep in. In October of that year, the Marty Wilde Show was performing at the Lewisham Gaumont and Rory Blackwell arranged for Georgie to audition “live” for impressario Larry Parnes.

  • Dave Stanoch Interview by Mark Powers World Percussion & Rhythm
    Dave Stanoch Interview by Mark Powers World Percussion & Rhythm. Vol. 8, No. 1: 2006 What do Herb Ellis, Butch Vig, New Kids On The Block, Bob Newhart and Timbuk 3 have in common with Stanley Jordan, Shari Lewis & Lambchop, Hiram Bullock, Martin Short and Scott Henderson? They have all had the distinguished pleasure of working with drummer Dave Stanoch. Hailing from Minnesota's Twin Cities, Dave tops the call lists of many local, national and international entertainers- likely due to his ability to fit into any situation that arises. He has been the perfectly-timed 'buh-DUM-dum-CHING' behind comedians Don Rickles and Joan Rivers; the rock-solid '2 & 4' driving Freedy Johnston, Sometimes Y and Col. Bruce Hampton; and now continues to stretch traditional and modern boundaries with his improvisational jazz trio, Triplicate. A student of the masters, Dave has studied his craft with Max Roach, Elliot Fine, Alan Dawson, Jeff Hamilton, Ignacio Berroa and Chad Wackerman. Now a master himself, he is fulfilling his dharma, passing on his vast knowledge, as an instructor at the acclaimed McNally Smith College of Music. As a former (and probably life-long) pupil of his, I have seen and heard the passion and level of well-rounded musicianship that Dave infuses into his playing. Those characteristics followed him into our private lessons, where he drove home points that were not only technical in nature, but also personal and professional, maybe occasionally reaching meta-physical. I learned that performing and sharing music was not about merely the aesthetic entertainment value. To Dave, the world is his instrument and his instrument is his world.
