Coslor - agent PO BOX 494314 * Port Charlotte, FL 33949 941.624.2254 * [email protected] www.Celebritydirect.net Biography Deborah Allen is one of those rare artists who forged their own path to success and ended up building a world-class career in the process. An extraordinarily talented singer, songwriter, producer and performer, Deborah’s unique abilities as an artist may be matched only by her enthusiasm and creativity as an individual. It is that formidable combination of spirit and talent that keeps the Grammy-nominated entertainer in demand. With her latest album, Hear Me Now, Deborah Allen’s music remains as smart, witty and sexy as ever. “I was born singing,” Allen asserts. “I guess it would be hard to pinpoint exactly when my career in music became a full-on pursuit, but I’d say by the time I was eighteen I was sure that music was what I wanted, and I just forged ahead. There was no Plan B in sight.” Fortunately, after moving to Nashville, Plan A worked out in grand fashion. Although most often associated with her signature smash, “Baby I Lied,” the true measure of Deborah’s influence in contemporary music is underscored by the hit singer’s diverse radio success. Songs like “I’ve Been Wrong Before,” “I Hurt For You,” “Rock Me,” “If You’re Not Gonna Love Me,” “Wrong Side Of Love,” and “Break These Chains” are just a few of the singles that made their way up the Country, Pop or AC charts during her career.

  • Fleetwood Mac – En Musiksåpa IBLAND HAR DE VARIT HOPPLÖST UTE
    Ur arkivet – sommarläsning med Livets Goda.se: Fleetwood Mac – en musiksåpa IBLAND HAR DE VARIT HOPPLÖST UTE. Andra gånger har de närmast setts som galjonsfigurer för en våg – för bara några sedan var det den återuppståndna yachtrocken och band som Midlake och Fleet Foxes gjorde sitt bästa för att imitera deras sound. Men Fleetwood Mac musik är mer tidlös än så. Dess mer insmickrande material kan smälta in i de flesta sammanhang, medan de mer experimentella låtarna än i dag bär en avig galenskap som sticker ut som en sårig tumme från den antiseptiska mainstreampopen. Flera band har fått hits med egna Fleetwood Mac-tolkningar, bland annat två så väsensskilda grupper som Santana (Black Magic Woman) och Judas Priest (The Green Manalishi). I praktiken talar man om flera olika band när man diskuterar Fleetwood Mac. Eftersom de genomgått åtskilliga medlemsbyten så har ett flertal inkarnationer existerat. Bara rytmsektionen, trummor och bas, är gemensam för samtliga. Två huvudsakliga eror kan urskiljas. Under den ena var bandet bluesbaserat, brittiskt och med gitarristen, sångaren och låtskrivaren Peter Green som nyckelmedlem. Under den andra hade bandet tre frontfigurer och låtskrivare – Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham och Stevie Nicks. Det var denna sättning som gav världen hitspäckande mångmiljonsäljare som Rumours (1977) – som förblir ett av de tio mest sålda albumen någonsin – och Tango In The Night (1987). Fleetwood Macs enda konstanter är dock de två britter som gett bandet dess namn. Trumslagaren Mick Fleetwood och basisten John McVie. Och de är viktigare för soundet än man kan tro. BÖRJADE MED BLUES Originalsättningen av Fleetwood Mac uppstod när Fleetwood, Green och McVie lämnade John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers – där Green hade ersatt ingen mindre än Eric Clapton – för att starta eget.

  • T. GRAHAM BROWN BIOGRAPHY It Was One of the Most Vibrant And
    T. GRAHAM BROWN BIOGRAPHY It was one of the most vibrant and exciting time periods in Country Music history – the mid-1980s. A new and exciting crop of talents were springing up all over the place – and T. Graham Brown remembers it like it was yesterday. “I remember Randy Travis and I hit at about the same time,” he recalls. “Our first singles were so close to each other. I’m not sure if it was the same week or not. Then you had Marty Stuart, Billy Burnette – who went on to Fleetwood Mac. Steve Earle was there, too. I saw him at the Grand Ole Opry a few weeks ago, and we talked about that year. ​ ​ We had a great year. We called our club ‘The Great Credibility Scare of 1986.’ All of us were having fun, there was no competition between us, and we all loved each other. Keith Whitley was one of my best friends, as well, and we were touring together a lot. It was a great time.” Brown’s initial entry to Country Radio was the sad and soulful “Drowning In Memories.” That Top-40 single helped him to establish himself, and by the winter of 1986, he had warmed up to audiences with the bluesy hit “I Tell It Like It Used To Be.” Other hits ​ quickly followed, with his first self-penned release “Hell And High Water,” which became his first number one song. “I Wish That I Could Hurt That Way Again” and “Don’t Go To Strangers” were the next releases, which all became chart-toppers.
