Once known for his cheer and charm, Rally is now famous his “bad boy” attitude and hard-partying lifestyle. But what happened to the guy who used to bring his own bowl to Honors College ice cream socials? A source close to Rally’s family reveals that the allegations of a "ing with the Champlain College Beaver were indeed true. Known for her erratic be- havior and promiscuous nature, it was no surprise to Rally’s close friends and family when he started experimenting with drugs and alcohol. “We knew something was re- ally wrong when Rally missed a hockey game to go on another Beaver Bender,” reveals a source. “#at was the breaking point for Rally. Beaver was just trouble.” But the trouble didn’t stop there. Fall- ing in with the wrong crowd was just the Rally Cat attempts to charm his way out of a bind.

  • Belpop Vinylsingels
    Themalijst Belpop vinylsingels 4 Vooraf De bib van Kortrijk startte in 1968 met een vinylcollectie. Toen de cd de elpee verdrong bleven de elpees nog een tijdje in Open Kast staan tot ze naar het magazijn verdwenen en nog maar sporadisch uitgeleend werden. Ondertussen deden de meeste ‘discotheken’ hun vinylcollectie weg, ofwel via verkoop, ofwel naar een conservatorium in de buurt, ofwel naar het containerpark. Alleen de plaatselijke producten werden gewoonlijk wel bewaard. In 2003 digitaliseerde Radio2 Kortrijk hun gehele audiotheek en kregen we de kans om hun bestaande vinylcollectie over te nemen. Zo kregen we er in één klap ca. 15.000 vinylelpees bij en ca.20.000 vinylsingles Nu hebben we een collectie van ongeveer 27.000 elpees en 27.000 singles. Onze dubbels hebben we zorgvuldig met elkaar vergeleken en de slechtste exemplaren werden verkocht. Wat doen we nu met ons vinyl? We besloten een gedeelte van onze collectie terug voor het publiek open te stellen in de vorm van digitale kopies. Er zijn een aantal wettelijke restricties die we moeten in acht nemen Het proces mag niet beschouwd worden als het digitaliseren om gemakkelijker te kunnen uitlenen. Wettelijk beschouwen we het cd-schijfje niet als een muziek kopie maar als Erfgoedkopie Om de wetten op het auteursrecht en de rechten van de platenmaatschappijen te beschermen mogen we alleen maar vinyl digitaliseren onder de volgende Voorwaarden 1. De lp mag nooit op cd verschenen zijn. 2. De gekopieerde lp blijft eigendom van de bibliotheek. 3. De gekopieerde cd wordt uitgeleend onder de normale voorwaarden, wordt niet verkocht en blijft dus bezit van de bib.

  • Jo October 2020 Very Black.PPP
    An alphabetical listing of her studio recordings, including recording dates, matrix numbers and, when known, dates first issued. Compiled by Jim Marshall, and updated October 2020 I first produced a Jo Stafford discography ‘way back in 1995, encouraged by the late Tom Colborn who probably knew more about Jo’s career than the lady herself. Tom had already done much of the groundwork and, knowing that I’d acquired a computer - an early Amstrad - suggested that I take over the task. I was well into my research when the indispensable "In Tune" magazine started publishing its own in-depth listing of Jo’s huge catalogue of recordings. The work put into that by Brian Henson, Colin Morgan, Robert W. Rice and others was an immeasurable help. My thanks also go to Ken Seavor, John Ridgeway, Lucas Tuinstra, Tim Weston, Jeff Lasbury and Ray Purslow plus, of course Jo Stafford and Paul Weston, all of whom contributed to Tom’s original research. More recently I’ve had important help from Michel Ruppli, Robert Rice, Richard Weize and Adrian Daff resulting in what I like to think is an almost “complete" alphabetical listing of Jo’s commercial recordings, including her work with the Pied Pipers and her alter egos, Cinderella G. Stump and Darlene Edwards! (Apologies if I’ve forgotten anyone!) Apart from a handful of never-ever issued Capitol and Columbia tracks, almost all Jo’s studio recordings seem to have been reissued on CD and are probably still in print. In fact, the seemingly relentless reissue of Stafford CDs, mainly in the UK, is proof, if proof was needed, of the lady’s long-lasting popularity.

  • Lyrics to the Top 100 Western Songs
    Lyrics to the Top 100 Western Songs As chosen by members of the Western Writers Association and sung by various artists Skip Skipson www.western100.com [email protected] Foreword Several years ago, the Western Writers of America surveyed its membership to choose the Top 100 Western Songs. The list was presented at the WWA’s Annual Convention in Knoxville, Tennessee. It was reprinted on the website of American Cowboy magazine, where I happened to see it in July, 2014. The list looked interesting, so I spent the Fourth of July weekend searching for the songs, their lyrics, and something about their background. By Monday evening I had made a pretty good start at tracking this information down, and I had become hooked on the music and its fascinating history. I created a comprehensive website, with links to YouTube versions of all the songs, to the lyrics as sung in the YouTubes, and to information on the backgrounds of the songs. You can see it at www.western100.com This document is a reprint of the lyrics as they appear on the website, presented alpha‐ betically by title. It also includes a list of the songs by their original rank. The lyrics on the website have been meticulously transcribed from the YouTube versions referenced there. Those presented here are a close match to those on the website, but do not include every update and correction made there. Nevertheless, they are very close to the lyrics as sung in one important recording of the song. Please note that there can be many variations in the lyrics of a song, due to varying inter‐ pretations by historians, arrangers, and artists.
