Activity 1 – Resource Sing for Hull With the Albemarle Broadband Week 1 – Eye of the Tiger Listening Activities Eye of the Tiger was the title song for the film Rocky III. It was performed by the rock band Survivor and written by Frankie Sullivan and Jim Peterik. Listen to the original version of Eye of the Tiger and answer these questions: 1. Do you like the song? 2. What instruments can you hear? 3. What is the message of the song? How does this link to the name of the band? 4. Listen to the singer, Dave Bickler. Think about how he is performing the song. How does this reflect the message of the song? 5. Listen to the electric guitars at the start. One is playing a repeated rhythmic pattern on the same note and the other is playing a very famous riff. Why do you think the riff became so famous? Why is it so memorable? 6. The song is about survival and rising up to the challenges we have to face. Why do you think the songwriters have used a tiger to represent this? 7. The genre of this song is Rock. What do you think are the main features of this style of music? 8. Can you think of any other title songs to films that have become famous? Eye of the Tiger – Did you know? Eye of the Tiger stands out for its use of the electric guitar. Many bands have more than one person playing the guitar. This is because the guitar can either play a rhythm or lead part. The rhythm guitar plays chords and, along with the other instruments in rhythm section (piano, bass, drums) ,helps drive the groove of the song. The lead guitar is one of the solo parts that, along with the vocals and lead piano, add melody to the song. Lead guitars often play memorable riffs (a repeated phrase) like at the start of this song. Can you think of any other famous riffs? .

  • Capturing That Solid-Gold Nugget
    Chapter 1 Capturing That Solid-Gold Nugget In This Chapter ▶ Gathering song ideas from anywhere ▶ Organizing and tracking your thoughts and inspirations ▶ Documenting your ideas his book is for everyone who shares the dream of harnessing the song- Twriting power we all have within. You’ve come to the right place if your heart keeps telling you to write a song, but your mind is uncertain as to the process of the craft or what’s required to create a really good song. You bought the right book if you’re wondering how to collect and organize your ideas. You have found the right resource if you have pieces of songs lying in notebooks and on countless cassettes but can’t seem to put the pieces together. This book is for you if you have racks of finished song demos but don’t know what to do next to get them heard. When you know the elements that make up a great song and how the pros go about writing one, you can get on the right path to creating one of your own. Unless you’re lucky enough to have fully finished songs come to you in your deepest dreams, or to somehow take dictation from the ghosts of Tin Pan Alley (the publishing area located in New York City in the 1930s and 1940s), most of us need to summon the forces, sources, reasons, and seasons that give us the necessary motivation to draw a song from our heart of hearts. Given that initial spark, you then need the best means of gathering those ideas, organizing them, putting them into form, and documenting them as they roll COPYRIGHTEDin — before it’s too late and they MATERIAL roll right out again! Have you ever noticed how you can remember a powerful dream just after you’ve awakened only for it to vanish into thin air in the light of day? Song ideas can be just as illusive.

Born in rural Mississippi, Jamison moved with his mother to Memphis, Tennessee, at a very young age, and he considers himself a Memphis native. In addition to honing his vocal abilities, Jamison dabbled in guitar growing up. By middle school, he was playing in a band. He would later sing for the bands Target and Cobra and provided background vocals for other bands including ZZ Top. After the demise of Cobra in 1983/84, he was invited to audition for Survivor. Although he was initially not adamant about fronting what he considered more of a "pop rock" band, which would contrast signifi- cantly with the heavy metal stylings of Cobra to which he had become accustomed, Jamison ulti- mately got the job and became Survivor's new frontman, and is today the most recognizable and best known of the group.

  • The Ides of March, Featuring Jim Pe
    Bond County Bicentennial Committee Bond County Historical Society PO Box 376 Greenville, IL 62246 The Ides of March Featuring Jim Peterik to Headline Day Two of the Bond County Bicentennial! The Ides of March, featuring Jim Peterik, one of the most successful song writers of the 1980’s, will headline day two of the Bond County Bicentennial Sunday, July 2, 2017 in downtown Greenville, on the Bradford National Bank Main Stage. Bicentennial entertainment chairman Randy Alderman said, “While the names may be foreign to some, the songs certainly are not. Jim Peterik, who formed the Ides of March way back when, took a little break in the 1980’s to form Survivor, co-writing and performing many of their smash hits, including the 1982 Grammy winning Eye of the Tiger , as well as penning many hits for .38 Special and for other bands such as Sammy Hagar and The Beach Boys. The two hour Ides of March set will be familiar music, performed in part by the guy who wrote the songs.” He added, “This band, which features the original four members, and the music they perform, will certainly be a highlight of the year for those attending this free concert.” John Coleman, Bicentennial Chairman, said, “It’s an honor to have this legendary band perform for our Bicentennial celebration. Their high-energy show filled with songs we all know and love will delight and entertain everyone.” This isn’t a sedate “oldies” act-much the opposite actually. In concert, the Ides of March remain a vital, powerhouse rock and roll band whose typical 90-minute concert usually lasts two hours, and the encores are always the strongest songs of the night.

  • Jim Peterik Has Been a Rock Star for Decades, and He’S Not About to Change Now
    Jim Peterik has been a rock star for decades, and he’s not about to change now [30 August 2010] By Christopher Borrelli Chicago Tribune (MCT) CHICAGO — He’s a friendly stranger in a black sedan. Won’t you hop inside his car? He’s got pictures, he’s got candy, he’s a lovable man. He’ll take you to the nearest star. He’s your vehicle, baby. He’ll take you anywhere you want to go. He’s your vehicle, woman. By now I’m sure you know ... who I’m talking about. If you grew up in the late ‘60s to early ‘70s, with a radio pressed to your ear, then certainly you know. That’s when Jim Peterik and the Ides of March, the pride of Berwyn, Ill., roamed the earth. Until they split up in 1973; then most of the band, having socked away some cash, went to college and started families, became upholsterers and property managers. They were in their 20s. But a funny thing happened: Jim Peterik didn’t grow up. He traded in his black sedan for a Lamborghini. And radio ubiquity? For him, it never dried up, and he never went away, or left Chicago. Indeed, if I had a nickel for every time I heard him recently sing “Vehicle,” the Ides’ biggest hit, which reached No. 2 on the Billboard Top 40 charts, and was impossible to avoid in the summer of 1970 and now sounds like the marching band anthem it is — if I had a nickel for every time I heard him simply reference those lyrics (“Well, I’m a friendly stranger/In a black sedan/Oh, won’t you hop inside my car?”) — I would be wealthy.

    IDES OF MARCH BIO•rev 091814 On October 16th, 1964; a basement in Berwyn, Illinois played host to four schoolboys, guitars, drums, and their dreams. From that meeting sprang platinum hits, Grammy awards, and a common bond that has lasted ever since. The IDES OF MARCH mark a rare milestone in any partnership, let alone rock and roll; they have remained together, with all the original members intact for fifty years. Best remembered for their 1970 smash “Vehicle”, the IDES (or their lead singer and songwriter Jim Peterik) have had hit records in each of the decades since that humble beginning. From the Brit-meets-Chicago Soul of their 1966 debut “You Wouldn’t Listen” to the rousing sports anthem “Finally Next Year” that cheered the Cubs throughout their red-hot 2003 season, the IDES have combined shimmering vocal harmonies with their trademark driving brass section to forge a sound that is timeless and unforgettable. This isn’t a sedate “oldies” act-much the opposite actually. In concert, the IDES OF MARCH remain a vital, powerhouse rock and roll band whose typical 90-minute concert usually lasts two hours, and the encores are always the strongest songs of the night. The secret of the band’s longevity might rest in the fact that they all have remained best friends throughout the years, with not a hint of ego-trip to be found. This is especially unique because singer Jim Peterik rose to the top of the heap with his band Survivor (“Eye Of The Tiger”) during the 1980’s. Jim also co-wrote the multi-platinum hits for Southern favorites .38 Special (“Hold On Loosely”, et.al.).

  • Joe Lynn Turner
    JOE LYNN TURNER Joe Lynn Turner, is an American singer, known for his works with hard rock bands Deep Purple & Rainbow. Career In a career that spans nearly 30 years and includes over 60 album credits, Joe Lynn Turner ("JLT") remains one of rock and roll's most distinctive, soulful and expressive vocalists. Born August 2, 1951 in Hackensack, New Jersey (U.S.A.), he played the accordion as a child, grew up with an appreciation for classic Rhythm and Blues (R&B) and became an accomplished guitarist in his early teens. In fact, his first band, Filet of Soul, featured singer J.T. Taylor who would later have success with Kool and the Gang. While in high school, Joe formed Ezra, performing original material and cover songs by artists who were a great influence on him: Jimi Hendrix, Free and Deep Purple. In 1976, JLT enjoyed his first taste of national success with Fandango, a band described as an eclectic mix of R&B, pop, country, jazz and melodic rock. Turner sang and played guitar on all of the band's four albums. Fandango toured with numerous artists including The Allman Brothers, The Marshall Tucker Band, The Beach Boys and Billy Joel. After Fandango split, in the first of two incredible twists of Fate, JLT received a phone call from legendary guitarist Ritchie Blackmore. Turner's work with Fandango prompted an audition and Blackmore was so impressed that he immediately enlisted Joe in Rainbow, a band that he formed after he left Deep Purple. Ironically, Joe spent his formative years covering Deep Purple songs and now he found himself fronting a band with two former members: Blackmore and Roger Glover.
