The Performers Bill Bourne & Madagascar Slim (Alberta / Ontario) JanuAry 9 Bill Bourne, First Nick Headline, Mar. ‘80 Bill and Slim have created a new CD that includes the mystical strains of Malagasy Salegy with Sweetgrass in Sangisangi through to Blue Eyed Moggie, which features Bill playing the Ektar and Slim’s uncontested screaming blues rock guitar style. The spooky Spike Island Raga features Bill on electric slide and scat vocal, while Slim’s beautiful nylon string guitar touch floats effortlessly. Randriamananjara Radofa Besata Jean Longin, known to us as Madagascar Slim, combines the influences of Salegy, Madagascar dance music, with the guitar mastery of Jimi Hendrix and B.B. King. Bill Bourne’s roots in the blues go very deep indeed as have his legendary collaborations with Alan MacLeod, Shannon Johnson, Eivor Palsdottir and most recently, Bop Ensemble. With 12 Juno Award Nominations and 6 Juno Award wins between them, Bill and Slim love to rock out as much as they love to paint beautiful musical pictures with their free and fluid song interpretations. Kate Reid (British Columbia) A Nickelodeon Debut! Kate Reid’s latest CD, I’m Just Warming Up showcases a whip smart wordsmith with a knack for candid story-telling and songwriting that is charged with humour and social-political commentary. A straight shooter but definitely not straight, she is as charming as she is in-your-face and is one of the most original, incisive and entertaining songwriters to appear on the scene in a long “Bourne flows with this almost indescribable soul infused with a time. Taken together with her charismatic stage presence and comical banter lonesome strain of blues... This man was put on this earth to play between songs, Kate puts on a show that leaves audience members shedding music.” - Crossroads Magazine - Tucson, AZ tears of recognition one minute and rolling in the aisles with laughter the next. Christine Lavin (New York) (The Nick’s 30th Birthday Party) JanuAry 23 First Nick Headline, Jan. ‘89 Christine Lavin’s witty songs, hilarious on-stage presentation and irreverent attitude have enlivened the folk scene for more than 20 years. Abundantly clever to unabashedly fond of a good laugh, she has become the wry musical voice of the post-Boomer, pre-Gen X generation. Her song Amoeba Hop received the stamp of approval from The International Society of Protistologists. Christine also hosts knitting circles backstage prior to each performance. With album titles like Good Thing He Can’t Read My Mind, What Was I Thinking? and Getting in Touch With my Inner Bitch, Christine has continued her exploration of the perils of romance. Her latest CD Cold Pizza For Breakfast: A Mem-Wha?? was released in 2009. Over the years, Ms. Lavin has developed a reputation as an especially charming live performer. Christine interacts with her audience, often teasing them in her charmingly self-effacing manner and they in turn help her present some great performances. Trina Nestibo (Alberta) A Nickelodeon Debut! Trina Nestibo’s debut CD, Someday: So Far offers spirited music that infuses flavours of rock, soul, country and blues to create a sound that is truly her own. She writes meaningful songs about real life and experiences, drawing on her prairie roots, love for simple pleasures and flat-out appreciation for life. Gritty. Ethereal. Soulful. ““Lavin knows how to keep her audience guessing, Trina’s signature voice is truly an instrument unto itself. At home on the stage, this thinking and laughing at the same time.” no-nonsense woman captures listeners instantly with her heartfelt honesty, story- - Washington Post telling, and contagious energy. Trina accompanies herself skillfully on acoustic guitar, squeezebox and piano, with her bare feet stomping every step of the way. The Amos Garrett Jazz Trio (Alberta) February 6 Amos, First Nick Headline, Jan. ‘06 Amos recorded with Anne Murray and gave the world Snowbird, played the classic solo on Keith, 1st Nick Opener with Clan Terra, Feb. ‘02 Maria Muldaur’s Midnight at the Oasis and was a member of Paul Butterfield’s legendary band Better Days. He won a Juno Award for The Return of the Formerly Brothers with the late Doug Sahm and pianist Gene Taylor. Amos has a wicked dry sense of humour and understated guitar licks that sound simple but need 40 years of hard work to pull off with the class that he always delivers. His latest CD is Get Way Back - A Tribute to Percy Mayfield. The Amos Garrett Jazz Trio offers small group, bop-tinged jazz, with guitarist Keith Smith, inspired by the likes of Charlie Hayden and Bill Frizell with a bit of Kenny Wheeler thrown in, and Greg Carroll on stand-up bass. Amos calls his Jazz Trio “a very melodic guitar extravaganza, Monk, Miles, and very accessible.” The Stray Dawgs (Alberta) Al, 1st Nick Opener with North Wind Mar. ‘82 The Stray Dawgs are Al LaMonaca on guitar, Bruce Leinan on violin and fiddle (they’re really two different instruments), ‘Tess Bassie on string bass and Brad Lindberg on 5-string banjo.

  • BOBBY CHARLES LYRICS Compiled by Robin Dunn & Chrissie Van Varik
    BOBBY CHARLES LYRICS Compiled by Robin Dunn & Chrissie van Varik. Bobby Charles was born Robert Charles Guidry on 21st February 1938 in Abbeville, Louisiana. A native Cajun himself, he recalled that his life “changed for ever” when he re-tuned his parents’ radio set from a local Cajun station to one playing records by Fats Domino. Most successful as a songwriter, he is regarded as one of the founding fathers of swamp pop. His own vocal style was laidback and drawling. His biggest successes were songs other artists covered, such as ‘See You Later Alligator’ by Bill Haley & His Comets; ‘Walking To New Orleans’ by Fats Domino - with whom he recorded a duet of the same song in the 1990s - and ‘(I Don’t Know Why) But I Do’ by Clarence “Frogman” Henry. It allowed him to live off the song-writing royalties for the rest of his life! No albums were by him released in this period. Two other well-known compositions are ‘The Jealous Kind’, recorded by Joe Cocker, and ‘Tennessee Blues’ by Kris. Disenchanted with the music business, Bobby disappeared from the music scene in the mid-1960s but returned in 1972 with a self-titled album on the Bearsville label on which he was accompanied by Rick Danko and several other members of the Band and Dr John. Bobby later made a rare live appearance as a guest singer on stage at The Last Waltz, the 1976 farewell concert of the Band, although his contribution was cut from Martin Scorsese’s film of the event. Bobby Charles returned to the studio in later years, recording a European-only album called Clean Water in 1987.

  • The (New) Gate of Cleve
    The (New) Gate of Cleve The Gate of Cleve (after March 1964 and a change of ownership, the “New” Gate of Cleve) opened in late October or early November 1961 (they advertised their second anniversary on November 2, 1963) at 161 Dupont St. (just west of Davenport on the south side). In May, 1965 the business moved to 45A Avenue Rd. just north of the Purple Onion. It closed in mid to late April, 1966. Listings of musicians in the popular press were sparse until early 1963. The “Cleve” apparently starts with musicians performing Friday to Sunday but by 1962, advertised musicians played only on Friday and Saturday nights until early 1965 when management started bringing in more musicians from the US. After that, engagements often started earlier in the week. As with other coffee houses it’s more than possible that music was offered other nights but the musicians not recognized in published advertisements.
