  • Classical Gas Recordings and Releases Releases of “Classical Gas” by Mason Williams
    MasonMason WilliamsWilliams Full Biography with Awards, Discography, Books & Television Script Writing Releases of Classical Gas Updated February 2005 Page 1 Biography Mason Williams, Grammy Award-winning composer of the instrumental “Classical Gas” and Emmy Award-winning writer for “The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour,” has been a dynamic force in music and television circle since the 1960s. Born in Abilene, Texas in 1938, Williams spent his youth divided between living with his 1938 father in Oklahoma and his mother in Oregon. His interest in music began when, as a teenager, he to 1956 became a fan of pop songs on the radio and sang along with them for his own enjoyment. In high Oklahoma school, he sang in the choir and formed his first group, an a capella quartet that did the 1950’s City style pop and rock & roll music of the era. They called themselves The Imperials and The to L.A. Lamplighters. The other group members were Diana Allen, Irving Faught and Larry War- ren. After Williams was graduated from Northwest Classen High School in Oklahoma City in 1956, he and his lifelong friend, artist Edward Ruscha, drove to Los Angeles. There, Williams attended Los Angeles City College as a math major, working toward a career as an insurance actuary. But he spent almost as much time attending musical events, especially jazz clubs and concerts, as he did studying. This cultural experience led him to drop math and seek a career in music. Williams moved back to Oklahoma City in 1957 to pursue his interest in music by taking a crash course in piano for the summer.

The rapid growth of the folk scene in Boston during the mid- 1950s was propelled in part by the popularity of hootenannies held at the YMCA and local hotels, and by a growing number of live music venues, catching on especially in the city's colleges.

    8 CAN A FUJIYAMA MAMA BE THE FEMALE ELVIS? The wild, wild women of rockabilly David Sanjek I don't want a headstone for my grave. I want a fucking monument! (Jerry Lee Lewis) 1 You see, I was always a well-endowed girl, and the guys used to tell me that they didn't know how to fit a 42 into a 331!3. (Sun Records artist Barbara Pittman ) 2 Female artists just don't really sell. (Capital Records producer Ken Nelson) 3 In the opening scene of the 199 3 film True Romance (directed by Tony Scott from a script by Quentin Tarantino), Clarence Worly (Christian Slater) perches on a stool in an anonymous, rundown bar. Addressing his com­ ments to no one in particular, he soliloquises about 'the King'. Simply put, he asserts, in Jailhouse Rock (19 5 7), Elvis embodied everything that rocka­ billy is about. 'I mean', he states, 'he is rockabilly. Mean, surly, nasty, rude. In that movie he couldn't give a fuck about nothin' except rockin' and rollin' and livin' fast and dyin' young and leavin' a good lookin' corpse, you know.' As he continues, Clarence's admiration for Elvis transcends mere identification with the performer's public image. He adds, 'Man, Elvis looked good. Yeah, I ain't no fag, but Elvis, he was prettier than most women, most women.' He now acknowledges the presence on the barstool next to him of a blank-faced, blonde young woman. Unconcerned that his overheard thoughts might have disturbed her, he continues, 'I always said if I had to fuck a guy - had to if my life depended on it - I'd 137 DAVID SANJEK THE WILD,~ WOMEN OF ROCK~BILLY fuck Elvis.' The woman concurs with his desire to copulate with 'the and Roll; rockabilly, he writes, 'suggested a young white man celebrating King', but adds, 'Well, when he was alive, not now.' freedom, ready to do anything, go anywhere, pausing long enough for In the heyday of rockabilly, one imagines more than a few young men apologies and recriminations, but then hustling on towards the new'.

  • Microphone Theory)
    PART I (Microphone Theory) Harvey Gerst: Ok, you're on. At 64, maybe the best thing I can do with my life is to pass on what I've learned from great people that taught me when I was starting out. I think that's why Al Schmitt, George Massenburg, Ed Cherney, and some of the other really big guns spend so much time on the net. We all owe the guys that came before us a lot, and this is our way of paying them back. And that's the only thing I have in common with all those guys I just mentioned - we all kinda drank from the same well back in the 50s and 60s. I'll try to cover as much ground as I can, to give everybody a good basic understanding of the different mic designs, advantages and disadvantages of each design, how mic polar patterns are created, advantages and disadvantages of each polar pattern, and finally where each type might be used, along with advantages and disadvantages of each usage. How's that for a course outline? This is the frequency response curve of a Neumann TLM-103. Not very flat, is it? Does that mean it's a bad mic? Before we can answer that we hafta know how to read one of these curves and how to interprete it. Okay, let's start this with some interesting history as a prelude to the whole mic discussion. "Why" will become pretty clear by the third or fourth paragraph: In a way, the history of microphones and sound all started with Alexander Graham Bell, and Western Union.
