Atlantic records By Ellie Morrison 1947 Atlantic Records was founded by Ahmet Ertegun and Herb Abramson. It was a well established independent label that paid artists fairly. Artist felt okay signing long term contracts as they knew their royalties would be paid. At the beginning, it’s list of artists included: Stan Kenton, Tiny Grimes, Delta Rhythm Boys , The Clovers, Ruth Brown, Stick McGhee, Joe Turner, Erroll Garner, Mal Waldron, Howard McGhee, James Moody, Dizzy Gillespie, Jackie and Roy, Sarah Vaughan, Leadbelly, Sonny Terry, Mabel Mercer, Sylvia Syms and Bobby Shor. 1949 “Drinkin’ Wine Spo-Dee-O-Dee” by Granville McGhee’s was a juke box chart and the first Atlantic blues song to become a big hit. They released their first album on the 33 ⅓ rpm LP. 1953 Herb Abramson was drafted into the Army but kept his salary running with Atlantic and his title as president. As Ahmet Ertegun and Herb’s wife Miriam were struggling to run the company by themselves they brought in Jerry Wexler to help. New trend of pop singers covering R&B records started to emerge. 1954 Big Joe Turner's song, “Shake, Rattle and Roll” was released. The lyrics were changed by Haley for the white market. This song also kicked of the Rock and Roll era. 1964 Atlantics publishing company Progressive Music was sold to Hill and Rage. They then bought a new own called Cotillion. The name Cotillion was used as the name of a subsidiary label later on. Mid 60s Ertegun signed artists such as Cream, King Crimson, Yes and the Bee Gees during the British Invasion. He also signed Led Zeppelin who went on to become the biggest band in the world at one point. 1967 Atlantic records became a subsidiary of Warner Music Wexler signed Aretha Franklin after her contract ended with Columbia Records. She recorded “I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)” which showed her talents and made her famous. Late 70s John Kalodner, A&R Manager signed many rock artists such as Foreigner, ACDC, Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins. Atlantic broke Genesis in the USA as a major act. In 1978 a fire wrecked around 5000-6000 tape archive in a warehouse in New Jersey that had no air conditioning. The master tapes in the back catalog where okay as they were kept in New York. 1988 There was a 40th Anniversary Concert on HBO which was nearly 13 hours long and had performances from artists such as Led Zeppelin. Present Newer artists that are signed with Atlantic include alt-J, B.o.B, Birdy, Bruno Mars, Charli XCX, Charlie Puth, Clean Bandit, Coldplay, David Guetta, Ed Sheeran, James Blunt, Jess Glynne, Kaleo, Marina and the Diamonds, Melanie Martinez, Paolo Nutini, Paramore, Portugal. The Man, Sia, Vance Joy.

NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions
NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Quotable New Orleans, Part 4 Below are a number of additional noteworthy quotes on America‘s truly unique city, my fourth installment. Musicians, writers, politicians and philosophers – they all had something to offer. Hope you enjoy. New Orleans is the only foreign city in the United States. - WALKER PERCY Noisy, bustling, gossiping, and a thousand leagues from the United States. - ALEXIS DE TOQUEVILLE, who toured the United States in 1831 A restaurant is a place where dollars are exchanged for food. Neither should be counterfeit. - JULES ALCIATORE I sing God's music because it makes me feel free. It gives me hope. With the blues, when you finish, you still have the blues. - MAHALIA JACKSON New Orleans is not in the grip of a neurosis of a denied past; it passes out memories generously like a great lord; it doesn't have to pursue ―the real thing.‖ - UMBERTO ECO, Travels in Hyperreality New Orleans is like the bad-kid island in ―Pinocchio.‖ - JONAH HILL People don't live in New Orleans because it is easy. They live here because they are incapable of living anywhere else in the just same way. - IAN McNULTY, A Season of Night: New Orleans Life After Katrina Everybody started calling my music rock and roll, but it wasn't anything but the same rhythm and blues I'd been playing down in New Orleans. - FATS DOMINO There is no other place on earth even remotely like New Orleans. Don't even try to compare it to anywhere else.

Clyde Mcphatter 1987.Pdf
Clyde McPhatter was among thefirst | singers to rhapsodize about romance in gospel’s emotionally charged style. It wasn’t an easy stepfor McP hatter to make; after all, he was only eighteen, a 2m inister’s son born in North Carolina and raised in New Jersey, when vocal arranger and talent manager Billy | Ward decided in 1950 that I McPhatter would be the perfect choice to front his latest concept, a vocal quartet called the Dominoes. At the time, quartets (which, despite the name, often contained more than four members) were popular on the gospel circuit. They also dominated the R&B field, the most popular being decorous ensembles like the Ink Spots and the Orioles. Ward wanted to combine the vocal flamboyance of gospel with the pop orientation o f the R&B quartets. The result was rhythm and gospel, a sound that never really made it across the R &B chart to the mainstream audience o f the time but reached everybody’s ears years later in the form of Sixties soul. As Charlie Gillett wrote in The Sound of the City, the Dominoes began working instinctively - and timidly. McPhatter said, ' ‘We were very frightened in the studio when we were recording. Billy Ward was teaching us the song, and he’d say, ‘Sing it up,’ and I said, 'Well, I don’t feel it that way, ’ and he said, ‘Try it your way. ’ I felt more relaxed if I wasn’t confined to the melody. I would take liberties with it and he’d say, ‘That’s great.

Biography -- Printable Version
Biography -- Printable Version Peter Wolf's Historical Biography Written & Researched by Bryan Wiser, and Sheila Warren with Mimi Fox. Born in New York City, Peter grew up in the Bronx during the mid-1950's in a small, three-room apartment where he lived with his parents, older sister, two cats, dog and parakeet. For some time, Peter lived with his grandmother, an actress in New York City's Yiddish Theater. She and Peter had a strong bond, and she affectionately named him "Little Wolf" for his energetic and rambunctious ways. His father was a musician, vaudevillian and singer of light opera. Like Peter did years later, his father left home at age fourteen to join the Schubert Theater Touring Company with which he traveled the country performing light operas such as The Student Prince and Merry Widow. He had his own radio show called The Boy Baritone, which featured new songs from Tin Pan Alley, and was a member of the Robert Shaw Chorale. As a result of such artistic pursuits, Peter's father underwent long periods of unemployment that created a struggle to make financial ends meet. Peter's mother was an elegant and attractive woman who taught inner-city children in the South Bronx for 27 years. A political activist, union organizer and staunch civil rights advocate, she supported racial equality by attending many of the southern "freedom rides" and marches. Peter's older sister was also a teacher as well as a photographer who now works as an advocate for persons with disabilities. She continues her mother's tradition, often marching on Washington to support the rights of the disabled.
