The Doobie Brothers Do It Again The Doobie Brothers do it again On Thursday, June 29, 2000, Casino Rama started the evening off with a fabulous display of the most notable sights and sounds of good old rock and roll, provided by John Kay with the well-known rock band Steppenwolf and the Doobie Brothers. The Steppenwolf concert began with a song entitled 'suki suki' then the band bounded with the crowd of aging baby boomers by performing a few of their songs from their early days. A frenzy of piano and guitar solos welcomed in one their old time favourites, 'Majic Carpet Ride', which made the crowd go wild. It was not surprising then, that their next song was none other than 'Born to be Wild'. Steppenwolf put on a terrific show that evening with a total playing time at 45 minutes. And, within my memory, the intense energy of the music still played on. The next feature sold-out show was the awesome Doobie Brothers. The first song that was played was entitled 'running down the highway' enlivened with unbelievable guitar acoustics and vocals. When the Doobie Brothers played the song entitled 'Jesus is just Alright with me', the crowd seemed enlightened for they were clapping and screaming which aroused the band's saxophone player to play a little louder than usual, which was alright with me. All in all, Steppenwolf and the Doobie Brothers put on a fabulous show from start to finish and, the ecstatic crowd, enveloped in sheer enjoyment, was over whelmed; I thought they would never stop cheering. That night will be one I will always remember and I send my appreciation to all those who made the evening unforgettable. Special thanks go out to Casino Rama and their P.R. personnel Debbie Crossen and Sherry Lawson, as well as their security personnel and volunteers.

  • John Kay & Steppenwolf
    JOHN KAY & STEPPENWOLF Biography CELEBRATE THEIR 50TH ANNIVERSARY "The central theme of Feed The Fire," says John Kay, "is, 'don't let the bastards get you down!'" Lyrically, songs such as "Rock & Roll Rebels" and "Hold On" focus on the resiliency of the human spirit in spite of life's many setbacks. The title song speaks to the needs of the inner flame that burns in all of us and drives us in our quest for fulfillment. Other tracks, such as "Man On A Mission", "Rock Steady" and "Rage", are songs of defiance and passion, while "Bad Attitude" and "Give Me News I Can Use", rely on tongue-in-cheek and at times sardonic humor to make their point. In Kay's words: "This album is about and for all the rock and roll rebels, be they 14 or 54, who refuse to throw in the towel and who struggle to keep their dreams alive in the face of ever diminishing freedom." With "Feed The Fire," their most potent album in years, Kay and company have written the newest chapter of the Steppenwolf legend. Kay has certainly lived the life of a rock and roll rebel himself. After a perilous midnight escape from post-war East Germany as a child, he grew up with a steady diet of Armed Forces Radio and became inspired by the likes of Little Richard and Chuck Berry. At age 13, John decided to make rock and roll his life. "Considering I was only 13, legally blind, spoke the wrong language and was on the wrong side of the ocean, maybe I was a little optimistic," he says.

    We have seen the future of annual meeting entertainment and it is World Classic Rockers--a super-group featuring members of Journey, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Santana, World Classic Rockers Boston, Toto and Steppenwolf. They play nothing but the hits, and after a day of lectures, breakout sessions, discussions, and debates, this is exactly what conference-goers are craving. Speech Topics Nick St.Nicholas Entertainment Nick St.Nicholas' music career began in Toronto when he first formed a band Celebrity called the Mynah Birds, a group of unknowns that would begin the careers of the king of funk, Rick James, and Neil Young of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. One year later he would assemble another band called the Sparrow. Using an unknown lead singer, John Kay, as their front man, and little money in their pockets, Nick drove the band from Toronto to the Sunset Strip in search of a record deal. Once in Hollywood, the Sparrow would soon change their name to Steppenwolf and a film that would become an instant classic, Easy Rider, would launch their biker anthem, "Born To Be Wild" into rock and roll history. Nick toured and recorded on many of their gold and platinum albums including Early Steppenwolf, Steppenwolf Live; At Your Birthday Party; and Monster. Some years later, he began his quest to form another band that would appeal to an entire generation. But this time it would not be a group of unknowns, he would instead seek to combine the talents of several of the most prominent musicians, singers and songwriters whose work represented a number of smash, popular chart-topping hits from the greatest bands in the world.

  • STEPPENWOLF 1968 Dunhill Records #4138
    GO 4 ROCK BORN TO BE WILD Mars Bonfire STEPPENWOLF 1968 Dunhill Records #4138 The third single from the album STEPPENWOLF. Chart: #2. Time - 3:02 / 3:30. Flip Side: "Everybody's Next One". Released in U.S.A. A million seller. Recorded at The American Recording Studio, Los Angeles, California, USA. Produced by Gabriel Mekler. Engineered by Richard Podolor and Bill Cooper. Bonfire was an early member of Steppenwolf when they were known as the Sparrows, and his brother was the drummer in the current band. Although inspired by a poster of a motorcycle with a phrase 'Born to Ride', the song was actually written about a car as he had just purchased his first one. It was only the next year when it became the theme of 'Easy Rider' that it became a bikers tune. This is the first song to use the term 'Heavy Metal', although it was talking about a motorcycle. No one, the writer, the band or the record company viewed this as a potential hit. It was only released as a third single after the first two bombed. - Larry - MARS BONFIRE "The demo tape that Steppenwolf originally heard of 'Born to be Wild' was not from the demo Personnel sessions for my solo album that Jerry and a few others played on. It was just one guitar and one voice. There was a guy who was kind of like John Kay, a solo blues player named John Hammond Jr. John Kay - lead vocals and I liked his style of guitar. I was fooling around with some of his riffs and guitar patterns, Micheal Monarch - guitar changing them around into my own thing.

  • The Geometry of Songwriting : the 4 Dimensions of a Song and the Importance of Time. by Bill Pere
    The concepts discussed in this article are a part of the comprehensive analysis of songwriting presented in the complete book "Songcrafters' Coloring Book: The Essential Guide to Effective and Successful Songwriting" , by Bill Pere. For additional information or to order a copy, visit http://www.songcrafterscoloringbook.com The Geometry of Songwriting : The 4 Dimensions of a Song and the Importance of Time. by Bill Pere "Time management" is a phrase you hear used all the time as a core principle for good business practice. It is also as core principle for maximizing the impact of your songs, but with an entirely different meaning. Music, by its very nature, moves in 4 dimensions: Melodies move up and down in pitch. The phrases move forward, building tension toward release and resolution. They move closer to and farther away from the ear as the dynamics grow loud and soft. They move through time with rhythm. It is usually easy to incorporate all four dimensions into the music of a song, because they are inherent components of music itself. But when it comes to the lyrics, you're starting out with a dimensionless idea, an abstract concept that you have to fill with image, meaning, motion, and emotion. It's a much more difficult task to think in 4-dimensional words, and thus, songs are often stuck in a one or two dimensions, when there are really four that you can use to create a memorable experience for your listeners. Steven Pinker, one of my favorite authors on the relationship between words and meaning, in his book "The Stuff of Thought: Language as a Window Into Human Nature, discusses the importance of our perception of 3-dimensional space (height, width, depth) and its influence on how we use and perceive verbs.

  • John Kay & Steppenwolf
    JOHN KAY & STEPPENWOLF In the chaotic world of rock 'n' roll, in which the lifespan of most bands can be measured in terms of a few years or a few months, John Kay and Steppenwolf have emerged as one of rock's most enduring and respected bands, delivering hard-hitting, personally-charged music for more than three decades. In the late 1960s, Steppenwolf embodied that era's social, political and philosophical restlessness, building an impressive body of edgy, uncompromising rock 'n' roll that retains its emotional resonance more than three decades after the band's formation. Such Steppenwolf standards as "Born to Be Wild," "Magic Carpet Ride," "Rock Me" and "Monster" stand amongst Rock's most indelible anthems. At last count, the band's worldwide record sales exceed 25 million units. Its songs remain fixtures on classic-rock radio, and have been licensed for use in approximately 50 motion pictures and an even greater number of television programs. And, in addition to being the first band to use the term "heavy metal" in a song (in "Born to Be Wild"), Steppenwolf's punchy style helped to establish the fundamentals of the hard-rock sound that would flourish in the 1970s. Steppenwolf's remarkable resilience is largely a reflection of the fierce determination and never-say-die tenacity that's driven Kay for much of his life. He was born Joachim Fritz Krauledat in 1944 in the section of Germany then known as East Prussia. He never knew his father, who was killed fighting in Russia a month before John's birth.
