    JOHN COWAN - SIXTY [DELUXE EDITION] Compass 4630 Release date: 8/26/14 1. The Things I Haven’t Done (Bruce Coughlan) Bruce Coughlan Music (SESAC) The opening track, by Bruce Coughlan, a talented singer-songwriter from British Columbia with whom I’ve had the privilege of collaborating over the years, captures the theme of Sixty: I’ve been blessed with an amazing life and career. As with most of us, my journey has not been without loss and sacrifice, but by and large, I’ve been able to make a living doing what I love. One of the joys in my life has been to sing on records of people I admire greatly. Singing on Rodney Crowell’s recordings since the landmark “Houston Kid,” has been a source of great pride and satisfaction for me. I was a fan of his long before our lives intersected and we became friends. Having Rod on this song means very much to me.

The Track Shack Studios, joined Chuck Bari (aka Chuck Hansen), to record this new version of Loggins & Messina’s ‘Your Mama Don’t Dance,’ featuring Huey Lewis. Anchored by former Tower of Power lead guitarist & executive producer, Jeff Tamelier, and sound engineer, Peter De Leon, the team recorded old friend Huey Lewis vox & har- monica to re-introduce this (nearly) 50-year- old classic (#5 on U.S. Billboard Chart, 1972). A chance first meeting of Huey Lewis & Chuck Hansen after one of his Broadway per- formances of the musical ‘Chicago,’ brokered by mutual friend Jeff Tamelier, led to a 2006 performance where Chuck got added to the horn section on a Lake Tahoe gig with Huey Lewis & The News. While Johnnie Bamont is Huey’s long-time bari player in The News, Chuck’s string of appearances with Huey at the AT&T Pro Am Band and parties at Clint Eastwood’s Tehama Golf Club led to recording ‘Your Mama Don’t Dance’ for charity. “If it wasn’t for COVID, I’m not sure we would have released this tune,” states Han- sen. “But, Huey’s & Jeff’s encouragement & addition of Lifehouse as our charity, motivated me to lay down a version of Jon Clarke’s bari solo from the original tune. I hope you like our mix.” Elvis Presley sang a few lines from ‘Your Mama...’ as part of a medley in 1974 for his album Recorded Live On Stage In Memphis.

Ridde Lee Jones moved to the edge of her chair in her room at the Essex House, her blond hair disheveled, her disposition ruffled, as dis- positions tend to be in Manhattan on rainy Mondays. At the early hour it was a tossup as to who was sleepier, the reporter or his sub- ject, but a seemingly innocuous remark related to Jones about how a record retailer had compared her to Joni Mitchell set the artist abuzz. "I'd like to meet whoever said that to you," she says sternly, her tone suggesting that she can do more than sing and write. Like punch. Hard. With her fists. "I would say," she continues, "that anyone who says I'm like someone else who's out there is somebody who ought to be in the retail record business. Joni Mitchell and I have absolutely nothing in common, except that we both have big mouths and long, blond hair. She writes introspective diaries and puts them to music.

Story by Debra Smith Photos by Geraldine Wilkins Pastor Richie Furay and Scott Sellen of Calvary Chapel Broomfield, CO, strummed the last chord. As the two turned to exit the stage at California’s Orange County Fair, they heard a voice call out: “Scott Sellen, Woodbury High, 1969.” Puzzled, they looked over to see a former classmate of Scott’s walking toward him. Scott, worship leader at CC Broomfield, was astonished— “This was 30 years and 3,000 miles later,” he said. The irony grew as he remembered, “Back in high school, this girl used to bring magazines of rock-and-roll stars to school. CC Broomfield is located 16 miles north of Denver, CO. The church began in Boulder, One of her favorites was Richie Furay.” That CO, but relocated because most congregants were from northwest Denver suburbs. was long before Richie and Scott had met; on this day, they had been playing together for more than 20 years.

Saturday's '60s throwback came courtesy of Neil and Pegi Young's 24th annual benefit concert to support the Bridge School, which educates 1 / 7 Children, what's that sound? Buffalo Springfield reunited children with severe impairments. Although the lineup for the all-acoustic, eight-hour affair was typically eclectic, the undeniable focus was on Young's first public reunion with remaining original members of his old band, formed with Stephen Stills and Richie Furay in the musical cauldron of 1966 and disbanded two years later. Springboard to fame The surviving trio did their late bandmates, Bruce Palmer and Dewey Martin, proud. Opening with a slightly slowed version of the Furay-led On the Way Home, Stills and Young dutifully fell into supporting roles on harmony. 2 / 7 Children, what's that sound? Buffalo Springfield reunited Furay, dressed in a black cowboy shirt, stayed in the spotlight with A Child's Claim to Fame, Do I Have to Come Right Out and Say It and Kind Woman. But the men flanking him would soon show their stuff, making it instantly clear why Springfield was fated to be a passing phenomenon.
