Chief Eddy Clearwater has passed away, as a matter of fact, I did see him perform at what was largely a BBQ place with a nice bar. His big hit at the time, was "Bad Mama Jama".

Quote
Bluesman Eddy Clearwater dies of heart failure at age 83

CHICAGO — Chicago bluesman Eddy Clearwater, lauded for his guitar playing and flamboyant showmanship, has died of heart failure.

Alligator Records announced Clearwater, 83, died Friday in Skokie, Illinois.

Known as "The Chief," Clearwater was born Edward Harrington in Macon, Mississippi. A self-taught guitarist, he began his career in Birmingham, performing with gospel music groups, including the Five Blind Boys of Alabama. After moving to Chicago in 1950, Clearwater drifted into the blues, making a name for himself as Guitar Eddy.

Keeper Of The Castle Lyrics

Live it down, there's a lot of us been pushed around

Red, yellow, black, white and brown with a tear of their own

Oh, can't you see while you're pickin' on society

That the leaves on your family tree are callin' you to come home

You're the keeper of the castle, so be a father to your children

The provider of all their daily needs

Like a sovereign Lord protector be their destiny's director

And they'll do well to follow where you lead

Oh, in your head, you don't believe what the good book said

Freddy Fender's birthday, "Borderline", theme from the movie. The border might have been bad back then but it wasn't the war zone apparently it is now. If nothing else, a good song, with Ry Cooder.

Alan Longmuir of the Bay City Rollers has taken sick in a hospital in Mexico, virus infection, some sort of illness.

PRAY FOR HIM Bay City Rollers legend Alan Longmuir fights for life in Mexican hospital after deadly virus attacked his vital organs on Cancun holiday

He was admitted to Cancun’s Galenia Hospital earlier this week where his worried wife has kept a bedside vigil.

BAY City Rollers legend Alan Longmuir was in a serious condition in a Mexican hospital last night as he battled complications from a virus which attacked his vital organs.

Last year, he became very ill vacationing in Cuba:

I read a book on them, they went from being top of the world to down in the dumps in about 2 or 3 years.

I believe his brother Derek Longmuir the drummer and Alex started the band. A lot of downs with that band. I can enjoy them sometimes.

All Music Is Welcomed, in fact, anything is welcomed... motivational speeches, etc.

A few birthdays but first, how about one of those motivational speeches?  This is pretty darn good by  Jeff Struecker...  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Struecker)army ... he was in Mogadishu during  the "Blackhawk Down" era, early '90s and all of that, there are a few such kinds of speeches on youtube.  He speaks of what he experienced there. And yes, it is some preaching as well, in case, that might be offensive to some but not much of it. I'd say it's 17 plus minutes well spent.  Maybe we can post these or similar on a regular basis.

@Sighlass
In those years, Motown chieftain Berry Gordy, Jr. often encouraged his writing/production teams to try following up a huge hit with things that were only too similar to the biggies. It worked for the Supremes and the Four Tops ("I Can't Help Myself," "It's the Same Old Song") largely because the Holland-Dozier-Holland team who worked with both, primarily, were pretty good at making near-copies of hits they'd just written and produced. On the other hand, Smokey Robinson tried that tack with the Temptations---he'd given them "The Way You Do the Things You Do," which was a chartbuster (the Temptations' first such), and followed up with the similar-sounding "I'll Be in Trouble" and "The Girl's All Right With Me," and both of them flopped by comparison. He did the same thing after "My Girl," giving them "It's Growing," a charming song otherwise but that guitar lick tried just too hard to be "Son of 'My Girl'."

Booker T. & the MGs were good at that for awhile, too; witness these three singles starting with the one that put them on the map as hitmakers in their own right:

Thanks @EasyAce for the explaination, The 50s/60s were little out of my league to be honest. I was around then, but coming from a really religious family (no TV), grandmother controlled the radio dial (easy listening was all she listened to). The only radio I got was a shortwave radio my uncle brought back from Vietnam that I smuggled and listened to on occasions I could at night.

__________________________

In the 80s the beloved Laura Branigan had a hit called “Shattered Glass”. It was originally recorded by this Scottish artist "Ellie Warren" in 1980. Ellie Warren released this song "Satellites" in 1985. This is one of the extended versions.

Thanks Tom, think the first song by Kay Kyser was from around 1946 not 1906 (slip of fingers I am sure, Lord knows I do it often enough). Thanks for posting and modding the music subsection.

First song is from 1983 from the album by the same name.

@TomSea
Sadly, it's true. It happened in 1973, while the Kinks were touring the U.S. Ray Davies was already long haunted by the death of his favourite sister, Rene, who'd given him his first guitar as a 13th birthday present, when she left the same evening to attend a dance at the Lyceum Ballroom and died of a heart attack at 30. (The Davies were a large family.) In 1973, his first marriage collapsed and he feared he would never see his children again. (He'd had a nervous breakdown in 1966, too.) He'd been taking prescribed pills to deal with stress but he admitted eventually that when he collapsed after a concert---during which he unexpectedly kissed brother Dave on the cheek and told the crowd, "‘I just want to say goodbye and thank you for all you’ve done." Everyone in the house including the press thought he meant the Kinks were breaking up. Davies eventually admitted it was a suicide attempt.

Years later, Davies finally wrote a tribute to his beloved sister . . .

From Waylon's wiki bio:

In 1958, Buddy Holly arranged Jennings's first recording session, of "Jole Blon" and "When Sin Stops (Love Begins)". Holly hired him to play bass. In Clear Lake, Iowa. The story is told that Jennings gave up his seat on the ill-fated flight that crashed and killed Holly, J. P. Richardson, Ritchie Valens, and pilot Roger Peterson.

Stu Sutcliffe actually left the Beatles prior to Bert Kaempfert hiring them to back Tony Sheridan on "My Bonnie" and a few other sides; he never recorded with the Beatles while he was a member. He left to continue his art studies in Hamburg with plans also to marry his German girl friend Astrid Kircherr. (He also gave Paul McCartney his big, ponderous bass, until McCartney could acquire the left-handed Hofner that became his trademark.) It was when the Beatles returned to Hamburg in April 1962---in part to record another session with Kaempfert in return for his letting them out of a contract early so Brian Epstein could pursue recording opportunities for them on their native ground---that Kircherr greeted them at the airport with the news of Sutcliffe's death of a brain hemorrhage the day before they arrived.

Birthdays this weekend include Milt Hinton, bassist, who happened to be the house bassist at the New York club where bop was born, Minton's. (Thelonious Monk was the house pianist for those nights. The usual jamming regulars also included Kenny Clarke, the drummer who changed jazz drumming forever when he switched the timekeeping from the bass drum to the cymbal during those jams; and, before his premature death, Charlie Christian, the guitarist with Benny Goodman's organisation who loved to jam.)

Once upon a time Eric Carmen led a little group called the Raspberries, playing a hybrid style veering between the harmonies of the Beatles and the Hollies and the crunch of the Who and virtually inventing what came to be known as "power pop," though they were just enough ahead of their time to have only a couple of hit singles and mixed critical reviews. Which is why Carmen, who'd already had a couple of hits, could still write about the longing for a hit and get away with it (as would you if you'd written music as powerful as this) . . .

Awesome @EasyAce , like Paul Harvey, you give great insight, especially knowing my limitations on music knowledge only beginning for the most part in the late 70s (and more towards 84 to be honest).

That "Overnight Sensation" was quite a well made song.

I appreciate it. Sincerely.

You're welcome!

I once worked as a music critic, so I had to learn a lot even as things like the Raspberries were among the musics I grew up with. (I was born in 1955.) My true music loves are the blues, jazz, and classic soul, plus the vintage rock and roll I grew up with.

I have a splendid book, Dave Marsh's The Heart of Rock & Soul: The 1,001 Greatest Singles Ever Made, published in 1989. He ranked "Overnight Sensation (Hit Record)" number 890. This was his review of that single:

Eric Carmen wanted fame as badly as any guy who ever blow-dried his hair into a perfect bouffant, squeezed himself into nut-numbing tight pants, strapped on a guitar, and stepped to the mike to fake some Beatles harmony. Carmen wanted to have it all, which as he conceived it meant a band that rocked as tough and wild as the Who and crooned as smooth and tight as the Beach Boys, the lustful adoration of teenage nubiles, the cogent respect of rock critics, massive radio airplay, and the royalty checks that go with it.

The second Raspberries single, "Go All the Way," won over a substantial number of nubiles and programmers, and his Liverpudlian-cum-Beach Boys power pop writing and singing earned the allegiance of a coterie of critics, but not the across-the-board credibility for which he lusted . . .

. . . It turned out that Eric Carmen wanted a hit record worse than he wanted teenage lust, so he decided to tie up all his desires in one epic song, a love ode to chart success laden with radio and record industry jargon: "And if the programmer don't pull it/It's bound to get back the bullet."

The record was arranged as a pastiche of Carmen's favourites---the Beach Boys, the Beatles, the Who, and especially Phil Spector, for whom Jimmy Ienner subbed with surprising adequacy. The result was a
tour de force, albeit a completely derivative and opportunistic one. It was also five and a half minutes long at a time when no Top 40 stations played anything over three minutes except under duress, and determinedly mid-sixties pop in its influences, at a time when FM rock stations disdained such stuff in favour of album rock pretensions with heavier throw weight.

Carmen wanted to call it "Hit Record," but Capitol Records thought that title too assertive so they saddled him with "Overnight Sensation" and compromised on the subtitle. It almost worked: The record crawled into the Top 20 and if the song had been about half as long, or if more listeners shared Carmen's obsession with the mechanics of fame or understood his promo-man nomenclature, it could have gone all the way.  As it is, in its own way, "Overnight Sensation" remains a very fine record, the thing that still makes me forgive Carmen (at least a little bit) when he surfaces on the radio in the late eighties with one of the schlock ballads that have finally given him fame and wealth at the expense of any pretense of credibility, of course.

Thanks @pookie18 , they definitely had a beginning before my time.

Like I said, I think I am scraping the very end of the era yall love. So not sure how many songs I post are relevant to yall.

Maybe this one is just inside yall's scope. It was featured in the 80s movie "Fright Night". It didn't chart far as I know, but the 80's soundtrack fit it perfect. Pretty obscure but I liked it.
