The METRO Parrot Head Club is celebrating it's 20th Anniversary and this is the start of our 19th year of collect- ing litter along Route 114 in East Hampton. Our club was the first parrot head club to adopt a highway. Many other clubs have followed our lead but none can match our 19 year commitment to keep our two (and a half) miles of highway clean. On Saturday, April 14th, we'll meet in the parking in front of the King Kullen supermarket in Bridgehampton Commons at 10AM. From there we'll make our way over to Route 114 for the clean up. While our club does many different types of community service during the year, this is the one activity that Jimmy Buffett is very familiar with. Through the years, he's mentioned it at several concerts. He really appreciates our efforts in his summer get away. When we're finished we'll take a short drive on Route 114 to the corner bar in Sag Harbor. Of course, if Murph's is open, we'll make a detour. Lon Ormanian has spent the winter refurbishing our pointy sticks so they'll be in good shape. Remember to wear suitable shoes and gloves. Orange trash bags will be provided.

What is your favorite drink? Rum and Coke 2. If I looked into your CD collection what artists would I find? A pretty wide range of music, I listen to everything from pop, country, rock and roll and R&B to jazz/big band and all kinds of world music. You'd find cd's from Dave Matthews, Santana, Buffett, Larry Carlton, James Taylor, Stevie Wonder, Marley, ..... and on up to new stars of today! 3. How many instruments do you play? Well.... play and “play” are two different things. I play all sorts of percussion instruments (drum set, steel drums, latin percussion (congas, timbales, bells and blocks etc)) as well as orchestral instrument, vibes, marimba, timpani, etc. Other instruments that I am able to get around on include guitar, piano/keys... but if it makes a sound, I'll try and learn it! 4. Did you have any formal training? Yes and no. I'm self taught in most of my instruments, but i had some training as i got into middle school/high school... and of course through college. I had no lessons in steel pan, but taught myself through listening to Club Trini records, steel band groups as well as other jazz players that I tried to emulate the guitar sounds on the pan. 5. At what age did you realize that you wanted to play TropRock music? Well... "Trop Rock" wasnt really around as I was growing up and by that I mean that it wasn't as big as it is today. It was pretty much just considered "Jimmy Buffett" music. I started playing music at the age of two, got into steel drums when I was nine and in learning Buffett songs, I ended up playing a lot of parrothead events. That sort of put me in the "Trop Rock" world by default. My favorite music to play is jazz/ R&B and funk... or some type of blend consisting of that! 6. Who do you enjoy playing with? Its tough to say. I perform with about eight to nine different groups, as well as duos and special events. Im fortunate to have the chance to work with some of the bigger names in Trop Rock which is pretty fun. Each group has their unique style and attributes that make them so much fun….. that’s why I love performing with so many groups! 7.

    Issue #26 Winter 2012 Business Tagline or Motto HELLO from the President's Perch CONTENTS : By the time this edition arrives, we will be almost through what has been a mild winter. I hope all of our Parrot Head members survived the winter and are ready to fly into some sunny warm weather. Things were certainly not mild or cold in our Berks County Parrot Head Club. Christmas in the Caribbean 2 In December we hosted another successful Toys for Tots party at the Christmas in the Caribbean Spruce and delivered more toys and cash to the Marines than any prior Afterparty 3 year. Things heated up even more with the 4th annual Christmas show Cabin Fever Festival 4 at the Miller Center on December 17th. The Club Trini band (Michael Photomontage I 5 Utley and Robert Greenidge) was enjoyed by all. Jimmy and the Parrots entertained almost 200 members and guests at the after party (in the Viva lounge) that included a “Quick Licks” featuring buffet and a few drinks. Through your efforts and your support of the show we raised $14,000 for Robert Greenidge 6 Crime Alert Berks. Toys for Tots 7 Winter Cabin Fever was next, and Berks Encore was the chosen charity this year. In our In Memoriam 7 efforts to make each event better than the one before, we changed a few things from 2011. Trivia 8 Thanks to the great support from Crowne Plaza and general manager Craig Poole, we held the Phledgling Phlockers 9 event on a Saturday Night for the first time.

  • Biu Withers by Rob Bowman He Was the Leading Figure in the Nascent Black Singer-Songwriter Movement of the Early 1970S
    PERFORMERS BiU Withers By Rob Bowman He was the leading figure in the nascent black singer-songwriter movement of the early 1970s. BILL WITHERS WAS SIMPLY NOT BORN TO PLAY THE record industry game. His oft-repeated descriptor for A&R men is “antagonistic and redundant.” Not surprisingly, most A&R men at Columbia Records, the label he recorded for beginning in 1975, considered him “difficult.” Yet when given the freedom to follow his muse, Withers wrote, sang, and in many cases produced some of our most enduring classics, including “Ain’t No Sunshine,” “Lean on Me,” “Use Me,” “Lovely Day,” “Grandma’s Hands,” and “Who Is He (and What Is He to You).” ^ “Not a lot of people got me,” Withers recently mused. “Here I was, this black guy playing an acoustic guitar, and I wasn’t playing the gut-bucket blues. People had a certain slot that they expected you to fit in to.” ^ Withers’ story is about as improb­ able as it could get. His first hit, “Ain’t No Sunshine,” recorded in 1971 when he was 33, broke nearly every pop music rule. Instead of writing words for a bridge, Withers audaciously repeated “I know” twenty-six times in a row. Moreover, the two-minute song had no introduction and was released as a throwaway B-side. Produced by Stax alumni Booker T. Jones for Sussex Records, the single’s struc­ ture, sound, and sentiment were completely unprecedented and pos­ sessed a melody and lyric that tapped into the Zeitgeist of the era. Like much of Withers’ work, it would ultimately prove to be timeless.

    Dave Pittman aka CoconutHead From 1995 to 2001, the band CoconutHead supplied the gulf coast panhandle with top-notch acoustic Jimmy Buffett music. Now based out of the upstate of South Carolina, Dave Pittman, the lead singer and acoustic guitar player, continues to perform solo as CoconutHead. CoconutHead is just what the parrot heads ordered! Playing a large selection of acoustic Jimmy Buffett tunes, Dave Pittman covers everything from the popular “Songs You Know By Heart” to the more obscure parrot head favorites. His song list includes music related to Jimmy Buffett such as In the Meantime, Chain of Love, and Suzannah by Buffett’s guitarist Peter Mayer, crowd favorite hits by Bob Marley such as No Woman, No Cry and Redemption Song, and the Eagles' Tequila Sunrise served up right along side Margaritaville. A long time parrot head himself, Dave Pittman knows exactly what Jimmy Buffett fans want: Acoustic performances with the intensity and freshness that Jimmy Buffett had when he started in the 1970’s. Let CoconutHead excite your crowd into a Feeding Frenzy with requests and audience sing-alongs.

The religious foundations of his life, thought, and work were often an embarrassment to those he worked with and those who admired him. In avoiding Muste’s faith, his contemporaries and scholars alike have missed the ways his theology undergirded and motivated his life and work. At heart, Muste was a theologian.
