At age 79, Buddy Guy is a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, a major influence on rock titans like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, a pioneer of Chicago’s fabled West Side sound, and a living link to the city’s halcyon days of electric blues. He has received 6 GRAMMY Awards, along with a 2015 Lifetime Achievement GRAMMY Award, 34 Blues Music Awards (the most any artist has received), the Billboard Magazine Century Award for distinguished artistic achievement, and the Presidential National Medal of Arts. Rolling Stone Magazine ranked him #23 in its "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time."
Though Buddy Guy will forever be associated with Chicago, his story actually begins in Louisiana. One of five children, he was born in 1936 to a sharecropper’s family and raised on a plantation near the small town of Lettsworth, located some 140 miles northwest of New Orleans. Buddy was just seven years old when he fashioned his first makeshift "guitar"—a two-string contraption attached to a piece of wood and secured with his mother’s hairpins.
In 1957, he took his guitar to Chicago, where he would permanently alter the direction of the instrument, first on numerous sessions for Chess Records playing alongside Howlin’ Wolf, Muddy Waters, and the rest of the label’s legendary roster, and then on recordings of his own. His incendiary style left its mark on guitarists from Jimmy Page to John Mayer. "He was for me what Elvis was probably like for other people," said Eric Clapton at Guy’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2005."My course was set, and he was my pilot."

Taylor Swift’s follow up to, ‘Red’ the album that really pushed into another stratusphere last year, has now released 1989, we’ve heard, ‘Shake It Off’ about a million times on radio, television, anywhere with a speaker, and now the complete record has been released this week.
I think one thing for certain is that the thing well and truly shaken off is Taylor’s country roots, with electronicand pop beats as soon as you open the album, ‘Welcome to New York’ and ‘Blank Space’ are certainly evidence of that – it’s definitely the case she’s been going to back to the eightie’s for some of her new songs and it doesn’t sound all that bad, no matter her genre, Swift can write a chorus and that’s self evident here.
I think if anything, Taylor Swift’s record are images of herself, and this seems a very different perspective of her, with a much less ‘nice girl’ perspective that a lot of people hold her up for, it’s a very honest record, maybe she’s now got to the point in her success where really, does it matter what she does now? And I think this may have pushed her to do some bold and new things and to me that’s certainly that’s paid off.
Catchy choruses sort of are her forte, ‘Shake It Off’ is one hell of a pop song, that even my nan is singing it, ‘Out Of The Woods’ works really well, and ‘Bad Blood’ are just examples but really this works throughout the record – Bad Blood has some amazing drum beats on it and if you expected typical Taylor Swift with her guitar and stuff, you are going to be bitterly disappointed at this record.
That dude that said Taylor Swift can’t sing in her song ‘Mean’ back in the day, must feel like such a twat right now, ‘How You Get The Girl’ and ‘Wildest Dreams’ really show her vocals to the best, and that critic couldn’t be more wrong right now.
I think it’s a revolution in her sound and certainly works for her and Swift’s writing – I suspect this album will lead to another phenomenon, for me the highlights are ‘I know Places’ ‘Bad Blood’ and ‘Welcome To New York’ – a great blend of electronica, blended vocals and produced perfectly, each song working together perfectly, this is kind of how you wanna pull off a change of direction.
I found a stream here of the record.

The life and works of hank williams
Williams was taken to a West Virginia hospital and he was officially declared dead at a.
But, Hank also recorded novelty songs and blues-laments, country hymns and "story ballads".

Williams' funeral in Montgomery, Alabama, drew more than 20, mourners from all over the country. Williams had also married Audrey Sheppard before her divorce was final, on the tenth day of a required day reconciliation period. He had become a star. If you see something that doesn't look right, contact us! The family also began collecting Lon's military disability pension and thus managed relatively well financially throughout the Depression.

Hank williams children
Since the revelation of her famous father, she initiated legal claims to his estate and battled her half-brother, who refused to acknowledge her for a long time. He allegedly bought some songs under shady circumstances and called them his own. In May, Audrey and Hank were officially divorced. His passing did not bring about the end to his stardom, however. He moved into his mother's boarding house in Montgomery, Alabama. Hank would sing convincingly about having a rowdy time "Honky Tonkin'" and womanizing "Hey Good Lookin'" , but his religious songs conveyed a sense of real piety and repentance, most particularly, the title track to the album "I Saw The Light. His mother moved the family to Montgomery, AL, in , where she opened a boarding house. A heavy drinker since his late teens, Hank proved to be an undependable performer when be began showing up for concerts drunk, and sometimes didn't show up at all. In ways that must have seemed unimaginable to this poor country boy, Williams' life quickly changed. Hank always had a song to sing.

The marriage, always turbulent, rapidly disintegrated, and Williams developed serious problems with alcohol, morphine, and other painkillers prescribed for him to ease the severe back pain caused by his spina bifida. All his band members were drafted to serve in the military, and the promising young singer, still a teenager, was beginning to have problems controlling his drinking. In those four short years, he established the rules for all the country performers who followed him and, in the process, much of popular music.

97 year old veteran actor A K Hangal expired today at Asha Parekh hospital in Vile Parle following a brief illness which was aggravated by a fracture of his thigh bone.
Not a single big name from the film industry turned up for the cremation of the actor who was seen in over 225 films. Only character actors like Rakesh Bedi and Raza Murad and friends like Ila Arun were present for the last rites.
Hangal was one of the most endearing old men of the film industry with roles in Sholay, Namak Haram and Shaukeen. His one-liner from Sholay, 'Itna sannata kyon hain bhai', achieved cult status.
Sadly, Hangal had to depend on Bollywood for aid to fight illness. Recently, he had also taken up the cause for the elderly who could not fend for themselves and believed that the state needed to accept the responsibilities of senior citizens.
His son Vijay said, "My father was highly spirited and fought till the end. He survived even after life support was taken off." He added, "He even shot a small scene for the TV serial Madhubala despite his poor health. The moment the camera was switched on, his energy came back.''

Nicole Kidman says she was cast in the movie Nine because she was breastfeeding.
"They're not very big, my boobs, so they just became normal size. I loved it!" she tells the December/January issue of Ladies' Home Journal.
"I felt very Woman. When you've had a slightly androgynous body your
whole life, having breasts is a nice feeling. [I had] big boobs because I
was breastfeeding – I was perfect for it. I wouldn't get cast now."
Edited to add: Like this reaction from Daddy, Dotty?
CDAN Blind from the day of the Grammy Nominations show:
This A list celebrity/singer and much much more got some
bad news about an hour before he was set to perform. He almost canceled
after a phone call from a friend of his wife or his wife's publicist. My
spy isn't sure, but the gist sounded like the wife wants a divorce.
Apparently my spy heard something like, "I know you are about to go on
So sorry for the lack of posts, but there is really not too much to say that isn't being said all over the internet about Urban and Kidman. Blind items that must be them, ridiculous PDA's on carpets, ad nauseam.
After American Idol was over, Keith flew to Cannes with Sunday (where was Faith?). He was photographed going to lunch with Kidman, going to dinner on Stephen Spielberg's yacht, and at one red carpet event (at which the PDA was to the extreme). He fulfilled his duty and promptly returned to Nashville. He was seen out to eat with both of his daughters (via Twitter). Hopefully he is back in the studio, getting that new CD ready to go. And hopefully that new CD will NOT be a rehash of the music he has produced in the last few years.
Let's just review a few of UM's favorite photos from the last few days, and be done with it.
The last time Keith got a new tattoo we didn't see it for a very long time. He eventually let part of it be seen and only said it was for his wife. Since then we have seen the whole thing in it's ugly entirety.
We recently were treated to a series of photo ops taken during the Urban's last trip to Oz, but they weren't released in the US until shortly before the Oscars. Keith was wearing only board shorts (Thank God he wasn't wearing the Speedo!). There was no new tat in those shots. Last week on American Idol, we were treated to seeing the Nicole banner with a very strange addition!
Let's talk about it. Does anyone else see a black bird on the right hand side of it?
The skeptics among us may find these photos to be quite interesting. Keith has been in Oz touring. He announced he would be spending some time with his family. He did make a trip to Caboolture.
Apparently when he first arrived in Sydney from the States, he turned on the TV to see his lovely wife alone on the red carpet at the SAG Awards. Naturally, he cried because he wasn't with her. Or, so it was reported.
We here at UM have a few questions. Why didn't the girls fly to Oz with him? Surely, Mum and Dad Urban would have loved to have seen their granddaughters, wouldn't they? Oh, but of course. Kidman wouldn't have had two glorious photo ops with her children. The first one when she was leaving LA, with Faith hitting her upside the head. The second when she arrived in Oz, with who else but her ex, Russell Crowe, carrying Faith. Was it a complete coincidence that the newly single Mr. Crowe was on the same plane? Was Keith surprised when he saw Mr. Crowe carrying his youngest daughter? Is Keith aware of the rumors swirling about at the time of the Cruise/Kidman divorce?
At least the children look genuinely happy to see their father. It's too bad the Urbans haven't mastered the art of kissing after all these years.
Do we even want to talk about her hair? (Or lack thereof)?
We've all seen too many photos of Keith in his Speedo at a hotel swimming pool in France. Photos that were supposedly taken on his 45th birthday, even though it was quite chilly in the south of France that day. He was with his oldest daughter, Sunday. Was this a pre-arranged photo op? If not, why were the paparrazi hanging around a pool in Nice. If so, why?
Then, we get the following quote from Kidman:
"...I'm living in a friend's house in Nice. My two daughters* are with me,
Sunday Rose, who's 4, and Faith Margaret, who's 2. My mother is about to
fly in from Australia to babysit. Then Keith will be arriving . . . My
family is with me. My family." source
(*Hello, Ms. Kidman. You have three daughters)
We'll leave you with the following Fashion Police video. You are welcome for the laugh.


I saw the documentary about Mavis Staples last night, Sunday night of the Thanksgiving weekend. You can’t help but be struck by her joyful energy. How amazing she is, finding her calling so early in life. How amazing to have been born into a family who nurtured her gift.

Remo D’Souza repays the loan of a competitor on the sets of ‘DID L’il Master 5’
Mumbai, March 19 (IANS): Well-known Bollywood choreographer Remo D’Souza, who is also seen as a judge on ‘DID L’il Master Season 5’, went out of his way to help a contestant on set.
He paid off the loan for 8-year-old Himanshu who stunned everyone with his performance.
Not only his performance but how hard his mother worked for his upbringing made Remo more emotional and also impressed him. Himanshu is a Delhi based boy who lost his father at a very young age and he was brought up by his mother.
A single mother of 2 children, she started driving a rickshaw to feed them and support their dreams. But to buy a rickshaw, she took out a big loan. She is often stalked and harassed by people on the road because she is a rickshaw driver.
Watching his fight, Remo decided to help them by paying off his loan.
Speaking about the same, Remo mentioned, “I would like to help you with that EMI you are paying for your rickshaw. Please let me know the pending amount, I will refund it.”
“I don’t want you or Himanshu to be stressed about it anymore, now that the rickshaw is yours. You focus on the kids now and live a happy life after that,” he adds.
The dance reality show, judged by Bollywood actress Sonali Bendre, TV actress Mouni Roy and choreographer Remo D’Souza, airs on Zee TV.


Dame Fanny Moody (1864-1945) of Redruth was known as ‘The Cornish Nightingale’. Her father could, it was said, play any instrument he had ever seen. Her mother was a pianist, and their large family were exceptionally musical, in particular the daughters Fanny (Francis), Lily (1867-1950), Mabel (1874-1952) and Hilda (1876-1961). Newspaper reports show that all the sisters performed locally as young women. Fanny went on to become one of the great singing stars of her age. Hilda joined the D’Oyly Carte Opera Company in 1896, and later toured with her elder sister’s opera company. Lily, mezzo soprano, sang with J. W. Turner’s English Opera Company (1887-1902).
Fanny, allegedly seen dancing on a shop counter when young, became a pupil of Robert Heath of Redruth. Her first reported performance was in Ponsanooth on 26 March 1879 at the age of 14. Later that year Fanny’s mother died and her father was left with seven children. Nevertheless, in the winter of 1879/80, Fanny performed over a dozen concerts, mostly in Redruth, but also in Penzance and Falmouth. This intensive pattern was repeated in the next two winters, during which she built a large local following.
Her talent was recognized by Lady Mary Basset of Tehidy, who in late 1881 paid for her to train in London at the Vocal Academy of the renowned Mme. C. H. Sainton-Dolby. Fanny made her London début at the Steinway Hall, Seymour Street in June 1883. In April 1884, with other students, she gave a concert in Newcastle. All was loyally reported in Cornish newspapers.
In Newcastle she was heard by Charles Hallé, who offered her a series of return bookings. Through these she met Carl Rosa, manager of a prestigious opera company, and when asked by him to sing a ‘top C’ she gave him a ‘top D’. She made her début with the Carl Rosa Company in Liverpool on 15 January 1887, in The Bohemian Girl. Later that year Fanny’s father James died, but having seen three of his daughters on their way to operatic success. In 1889 Fanny, her fiancé, the noted bass, Charles Manners, and her sister Lily made a triumphant return to The Druid’s Hall, Redruth. The packed event was a both a celebration of Fanny’s success and of her Cornish roots.
In 1892 Charles Manners and Fanny were married. Fanny went from success to success as an operatic soprano. In 1892 she and her sister Lily sang in the first English performance of Tchaikovsky’s Yevgeny Onegin. Fanny sang many roles, including Wagner, but she was most suited to those like Cio-Cio-san, the tragic heroine of Puccini’s Madam Butterfly. Later, she and her husband formed the Moody-Manners Opera Company which operated from 1898 to 1916.
Most of Fanny’s performing life was spent touring Britain but she also travelled abroad, notably to North America and South Africa. There in 1897, after a concert, expatriot Cornish admirers followed her back to her hotel. A newspaper reported ‘There was an assemblage of enthusiastic but strangely silent and peaceful Cornishmen; this congregation of robust Romeos waited for their Juliet to appear upon the balcony…To the silent she sang Cornish songs. And as she sang, these big men of Cornwall wept.’ She was presented with a tiara with the Cornish coat of arms picked out in diamonds, which was donated for auction in the Second World War with the proceeds going to the Red Cross.
Although she travelled the world Fanny was still seen as a ‘Cornish maid’ and regularly reported in a positive, almost avuncular way by Cornish papers. Her reputation, repertoire and audience were international, but her identity was Cornish, and her success, and that of Lily and Hilda, grew from the Cornish musical environment.

Hollywood actor Brian Presley returns to Jenks
Actor and film producer Brian Presley made his return to high school Thursday, telling his story and giving students advice.
Presley visited Performing Arts students in the vocal music room where he talked about his life, his new movie and answered questions from students.
Presley is a 1996 Jenks High School graduate. While attending, he was the starting quarterback for the 1993 state champion football team and was active in theatre and vocal music.
Presley talked with the Jenks Tribune as he walked through the school for the first time in decades.
“I remember walking through these hallways with my backpack on,” Presley said. “The PAC (Performing Arts Center), doing different musicals. It’s fun being back. It brings back a ton of memories, good memories.”
Presley has been featured in hit TV series “Beverley Hills 90210” and “7th Heaven”. He’s had roles in the films “USS Indianapolis: Men of Courage” and “Borderland”, among others.
Presley is currently touring the country promoting his new film, “The Great Alaskan Race”, premiering in theaters Oct. 25.
Having started his performing career at Jenks, he hopes he can show students they can accomplish anything they set their minds to.
“I remember being in those shoes and being curious about how it all works,” Presley said. “It seemed very overwhelming, very hard to fathom how you go from Oklahoma to Hollywood. There is a way if it’s a person’s passion and dream, they should go for it.”


Let me tell you about my girl Adele. She is brilliant. She is flawless. And she is BACK! After 3 years of no new music her new single “Hello” just debuted and it is amaze-balls. So today in honor of my favorite British lady and her red-headed gloriousness I will just leave this here for you. Watch and be amazed.

to go along with the melodies. His album Feux des Fous, released in March, is a blend of groove, psychedelic guitar and
songs with meaningful verses. It is the singer’s best album yet, and one of the
best releases in the Swiss music scene this year.

A press release doesn’t always amount to trademark use. In the 1980s, Toni Basil had a one hit wonder “Mickey” that included the lyrics, “You’re so fine you blow my mind, Hey Mickey”. She sold the copyright to the recording of the song. When Disney Co., Kohl’s and Forever 21 started using the song in their advertising, they issued press releases and mentioned Toni’s name in connection with the song. Toni sued for various types of Intellectual Property infringement including trademark infringement based on the press releases. Toni argued that the use of her name violated trademark law based on false designation of origin. The judge disagreed and dismissed the trademark claim holding that the use of her name in the press releases as nominative fair use.
WHY YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS. Not every use of someone else’s trademark is trademark infringement. This case is a good example. A press release is an official statement that is issued to give general information to the news media. A press release isn’t considered trademark use because its primary purpose is to provide information for news purposes. The press releases didn’t use Toni’s name in the trademark sense so she couldn’t maintain a cause of action for infringement.


You’ve heard us talk about Music Therapy many times in our Valley Recovery Center blogs. The truth is, whether its soothing classical sounds or “get on your feet and dance” jams, music heals and is a fantastic recovery tool. Artists within that industry have also become beacons of sobriety, publicly standing down their demons and beating the trappings of drug and alcohol. Well now, PBS plans to echo that statement by broadcasting the Concert To Face Addiction on October 20.
First a little backstory on the musicians involved and how their individual stories tie to the cause.
Steven Tyler is world-renowned for his work as the lead singer of Aerosmith. He’s also an inspirational recovery advocate, who has influenced millions with his lyrics. Songs like “Amazing” clearly spell out the beauty of recovery and how letting go of addiction can help you “see the light.” Steven has participated in countless sobriety charities, filmed PSA’s and beaten heroin multiple times. That’s right, Tyler has been battling drug issues since the 1970’s and publicly relapsed more than once. BUT…that did not stop him from moving forward and continuing his journey. If anyone deserves to be a headliner at this Concert, it’s him.
Headliner number two is legendary guitarist Joe Walsh. Since the 1970’s, his music has inspired millions; both as a solo artist and as a virtuoso member of the Eagles. Joe too has publicly battled addiction and written inspirational songs that illustrate his journey. Though not quite as famous as “Amazing,” his “One Day At A Time” track is hauntingly beautiful and truly documents the recovery experience. He’s also got fantastic guitar chops and promises to bring a tough, hard rocking edge to lineup.
As far as recovery advocacy goes, Joe has also been incredibly vocal and supportive. “One Day” is a song that continues to be in his set list and, when giving interviews, he openly discusses changes that need to be made.
“You know at this point, I think there are more recovered people than there have ever been, regardless of what their problem was,” he previously told SoundSpike.com. “But the sad thing is, about seven times as many people died before getting sober. That’s how bad addiction is. Addiction is a very human condition, and it’s ruining lives and families. It’s rampant and ruining this country and it’s time to say that out loud, to be heard, and to begin the painful process to get the government and the insurance companies and our whole society to recognize it as a medical condition.”
The concert’s other big headliner, songstress Sheryl Crow has earned nine Grammy Awards and sold over 50 million albums. She also was a self-admitted alcoholic during the early 1990’s. Right at the peak of her fame, Sheryl drank before every show; partially to get over her nervousness. She has gone on to praise the power of sobriety and recovery programs that still help her to this day. When discussing her issue back in 2008, she said, “I did a lot of drinking early on because it helped me cope with what was happening. But I couldn’t deal with it. I’m small and skinny and just a couple of shots would get me drunk. A couple more and I’d be all over the place. I had to knock it on the head. Now the greatest buzz is performing sober.”
Beyond those amazing talents, the Concert To Face Addiction will also feature The Fray, Jason Isbell and Jonathan Butler. As we mentioned before, it’s set to air on PBS October 20 in Los Angeles. You can click here, for the fill list of showtimes and station names. Make sure to tune in!

A spirited, humorous satire where the best French actors play fictional versions of themselves.


There’s a new pop teen queen on the scene, and she goes by Ashley Brinton.
Ashley Brinton, who creates under the nickname-turned-moniker Aye B, is an 18-year- old singer multifaceted recording artist, melodic rapper/vocalist and entertainer. Hailing from Miami and now based in Los Angeles, Aye B has spent the better part of the last decade Cinding her voice, experimenting with her artistic direction and developing a rock-solid foundation that only unrelenting determination can yield.
While previously having spent years dedicated to exploring modern pop soundscapes, a time period that helped strengthen her voice and garner key relationships with new collaborators, Aye B ultimately realized her self-expression became that much more ampliCied and electric when working in a hip-hop-leaning space. Unwilling to compromise her individuality, Aye B decided to shelve the music she had previously recorded as Ashley Brinton, allowing herself to reveal a more authentic version of herself to her rapidly evolving fanbase.
With no shortage of inspiration surrounding her, Aye B began experimenting with different vocal stylings and drawing from genres such as Latin trap, hip-hop and electronic to hone her distinctive sound.
As exemplified through her 2018 singles, “Trouble,” which debuted at No. 38 on the Billboard Dance Chart and “Say The Word,” such a progression away from pop was a natural one. With her 2019 track “Good Mawnin’,” Aye B makes an empowering reintroduction, indisputably thriving in the intersection of rhythmic vocal delivery and roaring trap instrumentals.”
In July 2019, she made an appearance on Bravo TV’s Below Deck Mediterranean, with the episode doubling as the behind-the-scenes making of the track’s accompanying music video. With gratitude and genuine enthusiasm, Aye B can currently be found polishing her latest music and perfecting her live show, all while pursuing her marketing and business degree as a student enrolled online at North Eastern.


Everybody has something trite to say about our 35th President, John F. Kennedy. My trite thing to say about JFK is that an unexpected death can do wonders for one’s image.
I told you it was trite.
JFK, though, was a master of image. He understood the power of a good story, the power of a well-placed joke. He knew how to be photographed. He knew how to be a star.
His wife, Jacqueline Kennedy, also understood stardom. She understood the language of imagery. She also faced the reality of her slain husband with specific attention to his legacy.
The Kennedy presidency is sometimes remembered as the Camelot era. In 1960, Camelot was popular as a Broadway musical. Shortly after the Kennedy assassination, Mrs. Kennedy gave an interview where she told the reporter that she and her late husband had enjoyed listening to the music of Camelot in their time together. Then, she quoted a line from the musical, “Don’t let it be forgot, that once there was a spot, for one brief, shining moment, that was known as Camelot.”
Her understanding of media gave birth to the Camelot association that remains, to this day, with the Kennedy presidency.
Kennedy’s cupcake is inspired by both the tragedy of his assassination and the attention to image that surrounded him. During the tour of Texas which would be his last trip, Jacqueline Kennedy was often presented with yellow roses. Here,the lemon buttercream frosting nods toward those yellow roses. The rose theme is repeated in the cupcake itself which is rose flavored. Raspberry puree was swirled into the cupcake batter in order to tie the rose and lemon flavors together.

If thereâ€™s a Frank Sinatra fan on your gift list this season, Eliot Weisman has a book for them.
Eliot Weisman served as a manager, confidant, and advisor to some of the biggest names in entertainment in the 20th century â€“ Liza Minnelli, Sammy Davis Jr., Don Rickles, Steve Lawrence, Eydie Gorme, Joan Rivers – and the â€œChairman of the Board,â€ legendary singer Frank Sinatra.
In Weismanâ€™s new book, â€œThe Way it Was: My Life with Frank Sinatraâ€ (Hachette Books, 320 pages, $27), he chronicles his years as Sinatraâ€™s longtime manager to Sinatra through original photos and personal anecdotes and revelations. For instance:
- Sinatra and Weisman losing their cool in negotiations with Donald Trump for the grand opening of Trumpâ€™s Taj Mahal casino in Atlantic City;
- The backstory of the infamous photograph of Sinatra with mafia leaders and Weismanâ€™s futile attempts to keep it from the press.
- The mystery woman who threatened to throw the entire estate into chaos when Sinatra died about 20 years ago.
- The relationship between Sinatra and Jackie Kennedy
- How seriously Sinatra and his team took the job of security, from carrying an Uzi on his private jet to keeping a pistol hidden in his custom boots while on stage.
Weisman also relates his own personal journey, from Wharton Business School to a prison stint that left him broke and stripped of his professional licenses, to getting a second shot at a career as a high-powered manager by working with Sinatra.

Priscilla Presley at Baptist Memorial Hospital in Memphis, TN, February 5, 1968.
Elvis Presley photographed in Bad Nauheim, Germany, 1959.
Today I went to one of the houses Elvis lived in when he stayed in LA. Priscilla and Elvis bought this house in 1967 after they got married and had it until they separated in 1972. You can see all the messages people have left Elvis over the years. Needless to say, it was a religious experience to see where my idol had once lived.


Here are some of the latest health and medical news developments, compiled by the editors of HealthDay:
Golf Icon Arnold Palmer Dies at Age 87
Golf legend Arnold Palmer, whose impact on the game was immeasurable, died Sunday at age 87.
Palmer was admitted to the UPMC Hospital in Pittsburgh on Thursday for cardiovascular treatment and weakened over the past few days, according to Alastair Johnston, CEO of Arnold Palmer Enterprises, the Associated Press reported.
"He was an iconic American who treated people with respect and warmth, and built a unique legacy through his ability to engage with fans," Johnston said.
Palmer captured seven major championships and 62 PGA Tour wins and is ranked among the most important figures in golf history. His fans worldwide were referred to as "Arnie's Army."
Palmer played in his last Masters tournament in 2004, but hit the ceremonial tee shot every year until 2016, when he was forced to stop due to his age and balance problems.
"Arnold transcended the game of golf," said fellow golf great Jack Nicklaus. "He was more than a golfer or even great golfer. He was an icon. He was a legend. Arnold was someone who was a pioneer in his sport. He took the game from one level to a higher level, virtually by himself. Along the way, he had millions of adoring fans.
"He was the king of our sport and always will be, Nicklaus added."
"If it wasn't for Arnold, golf wouldn't be as popular as it is now," Tiger Woods said in 2004 when Palmer played in his last Masters, the AP reported.
"He's the one who basically brought it to the forefront on TV. If it wasn't for him and his excitement, his flair, the way he played, golf probably would not have had that type of excitement," Woods said. "And that's why he's the king."
President Barack Obama tweeted: "Here's to The King who was as extraordinary on the links as he was generous to others. Thanks for the memories, Arnold."

Invites are now out for the next Noosaville Business Association networking event, proudly hosted by Laguna Pest Control. Australian Idol Winner Wes Carr is our guest speaker. He may even give us a few tunes!This event is limited tickets only so don’t miss out! Tues 17th October at the Villa Noosa. You must be an active member to come along or or you are not a member and want to consider joining the Association you are more than welcome to attend. Please go to www.nossavillebusinessassociation.org.au
Wes Carr has worn a lot of hats in the twenty years he’s been a professional musician, acoustic troubadour, reality show winner and chart-topping pop star. He has been front man of the Silverchair side project Tambalane and was the nations’ sweetheart when he took out Australian Idol. Wes’ ragged, soaring voice recalling Bruce Springsteen and John Lennon coupled with the rambling spirit and storytelling of Leonard Cohen has taken him around the globe and then some. Wes is a man who has walked through the fire, paid more than his share of dues and has emerged on the other side. He has experienced the highs and adulation few of us will ever enjoy. He’s ridden the rigors of a spell in the music industry spotlight and has arrived with a bag full of songs, bursting at the seams.
Music is in Wes Carr’s DNA. He is a multifaceted instrumentalist, producer, international award winning singer songwriter and performer.
Tending to a shattered heart at the age of 12 when his parents separated, Wes found comfort in an old piano and guitar. A self-taught artist, Wes turned his worries into words and music was his outlet. A therapy of sorts.
A move to Sydney was to follow, where the young artist started gigging at the tender age of 14. Playing bars in Sydney’s Inner City small music venues, Wes’ music turned the heads of the industry heavyweights, and soon he was working with Australian music Icons including Paul Mac, Missy Higgins, Don Walker and Andrew Farris from INXS. A publishing deal was secured and his dream of playing music for a living had begun.
A collaboration with Silverchair’s Ben Gillies soon followed. The project issued a self-released album in 2005 and embarked on a national tour in support of it. They gained critical acclaim and extensive radio play. It was the first of many treks around the country.
2006 saw Wes extend his craft and travel to Los Angeles to work with industry veteran CJ Vanston, Joe Cockers musical director, where he worked with Jeff “the skunk” Baxter (Steely Dan and the Doobie Brothers). Wes independently released his first solo album this same year, “Simple Sum” The album drew influences from the Dave Mathews band and Jeff Buckley and several songs from the album featured on popular television shows.
Back home Wes was playing sell out shows around small venues in the east of Sydney, but he felt compelled to find a bigger platform to share his songs.
Winning series 6 of Network Tens Australian Idol in 2008 certainly gave those songs a much larger platform and Wes single ‘You’ became a Platinum selling Aria number 1 single. His album “The Way the World Looks” stormed the Aria charts opening at number 2, with the song “Feels Like Woah” then becoming the most played song on Australian radio. This track also gained international attention becoming the theme song for CBS.
Touring was now an everyday affair, where Carr spent the next few years on the road playing to sell out shows across the country. He supported Cold Chisels’ Ian Moss on a 58 show tour and well known Irish band ‘The Script’ on their international tour.
2010-2012 Wes embarked on a global writing trip and cut a record at Roy Orbison’s studio in Nashville and the iconic Sunset Sound Studios in LA The record was never released.
In 2012 Wes created Buffalo Tales an independent release. Yearning for a simpler time, it was a cathartic departure from the rock sound and a more honest intimate creation, with folk and alt country overtones. It was time to strip back the production and return to his roots. Wes created the EP “Blood and Bone” with best mate and Jazz royalty Stu Hunter. “Roadtrip Confessions” the album was soon to follow. Both reaching number 2 on the Singer Songwriter charts. A few more national tours, but this time capturing the essence of the troubadour. Intimate raw and complex. Wes felt at home.
International recognition soon followed with Wes winning Best Male Artist at the International Acoustic Music Awards in 2013. And second place in the International songwriting competition with his song ‘Lost’ which he co-wrote with mentor Don Walker from Cold Chisel.
In 2015 ‘Lost’ was released by Chisel as the first single off their album “No Plans” recognising Carr as one of the country’s best writers.
This same year Wes toured his sell out one man show “Here Comes the Sun” a show he created celebrating the late and great George Harrison. Offers came in soon after for more story telling on the main stage with Wes touring nationally to sell out theatres with “Rolling Thunder Vietnam”
Composing is another role Wes has loved stepping into. His songs have featured in the Christopher Guests film “For your Consideration” the award winning Australian film “3 Blind Mice” while many other songs have featured on prime television.
This year Wes received his first Golden Guitar for best collaboration with Catherine Britt.
In between laps of the country, Wes found himself becoming a father and wearing the honourable hat of “Dad.” To date Wes’ greatest achievement.
And the bag full of songs? They will be shared later in the year with Wes’ best work yet. “Hummingbird” the album will be the telling of the tales. The heart of Carr. Ranging from joy to existential fear and every emotional point in between.


MC Ervin - Diçka ka mbetë
Skatto Records 001 (Hip Hop & Rap)
Today in Digital Store !
Mc Ervin, AKA Ervin Bashkimi was born in 1984, he is a rapper and a Beatmaker. He moved to Italy to build a better life in year 2000, just like many of his fellow countrymen, after the civil war erupted in his home country Albania. At only 15 years, he found himself living in the streets of Italy without a place to stay. One year later, without a regular stay permit, he was stopped by the police and sent to a juvenile detention center in Trieste. Some months after, he was transferred to another detention center in Aviano, in Pordenone, right next to the “Aviano Air Base”( the American Military Airport). Hip Hop was quite essential in this area, and it soon became part of his live. After this encounter, his passion for HipHop ,which he has always had grew exponentially. At age 18 he started writing his first lyrics, and putting his street life into rhymes while talking about the problem he dealt with during his troublesome youth. During the years he spent away from his country and family his life was quite difficult, it is during this period that he wrote songs like: “Dhimbja e nënës" ,"Netët e vetmisë, "ëndrra dhe depresioni". Due to economic reasons, not finding a producer ready to support him, Ervin found himself forced to keep his music inside himself, until when he would be offered a chance to bring out his music to the outside world. In January 2009 he met Jetmir Mehmeti, an Albanian composer and producer with whom he released the track, "Jo thjesht party". With time, the producer eventually became his friend and teacher, due to this valuable friendship he was able to produce some of the tracks from the album "diçka ka mbetë". This album was produced in 2 years and half and it was mixed and mastered entirely with analog devices. In last few years, Ervin has decided to build a professional recording studio and take beatmaking and sound engineering courses, in order to be able to produce independently. He also produces tracks for other rapper who, just like him back in the days, are in need of a studio, which can give them the means to undertake a musical career.


One of the founding fathers of rock & roll and a true pioneer has passed at the tender young age of 90. Charles Edward Anderson Berry or better known as Chuck Berry had such classic songs like “Maybellene”, ‘Johnny B. Goode” and “Roll Over Beethoven”, that inspired so many young kids in the 50’s to turn to a new style of music.
I was not a great fan of his, but I respect the influence he had on the music of the Baby Boomer generation.

On Sunday 5 February 2017 in Houston, Texas, starting at 6:30 ET a major sporting event took place.
Halfway through Superbowl 51 a 30-year-old woman named Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta exploded on to the stage to perform the half-time show. Lady Gaga’s performance was seen by 117.5 million viewers, 4 million more viewers than watched the actual game.
Lady Gaga’s performance was a high-powered, glittering, energetic extravaganza. It was a dazzling showcase of her considerable talent, creativity and, beneath the surface, surprisingly compelling depth.
It is not entirely my accustomed mode of entertainment, but judge for yourself Lady Gaga’s thirteen minute spectacle:
I wonder how you think a superstar Superbowl half-time performer like Lady Gaga might have spent the Sunday morning before mounting her monster performance in the evening.
The day after Superbowl Sunday, I received a photo of Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta taken on a cell phone the morning of her performance.
The photo was accompanied by a personal note explaining the origins of this photo. With the author’s permission, here is the note explaining the Lady Gaga photo:
Attached is photo of Lady Gaga posing with a security guard at St Martin’s Episcopal Church on Super Bowl Sunday (yesterday.) She came to the 8:00 am Eucharist and sat at the rear of the church. I am thrilled that she came to St Martin’s and was left in peace while she was there. Again I am taught that assumptions about people we don’t know are likely incorrect. I thought her Super Bowl halftime show was spectacular. I am now a Lady Gaga fan. The next step is to learn to recognize her music.
Imagine, before flying onto the stage to perform before millions of viewers, Lady Gaga sat quietly in the back pew of an Episcopal/Anglican Church attending an early morning celebration of the Eucharist.
I cannot know for sure, but there is a good chance that, as she sat there in that pew Stefani Germanotta, heard read some words from the First Letter of Paul to the Corinthians in which he wrote,
I came to you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling. My speech and my proclamation were not with plausible words of wisdom, but with a demonstration of the Spirit and of power, so that your faith might rest not on human wisdom but on the power of God. (I Corinthians 2:2-5)
For all the power of her performance and the extraordinary dazzle of the show she mounted on Superbowl Sunday, perhaps, by her presence at the Eucharist in St. Martin’s, Stefani chose to begin her day by acknowledging a presence greater than Lady Gaga power and even mightier than her own high-powered performance.
Is it possible that, in a private moment, a powerful glamorous superstar might have set aside time to quietly affirm that her true identity lies, not with the public event later in the day, but with a mysterious gentle presence she acknowledged in the reverent stillness of a church service? Could it be that, this might in fact be the more powerful act in Stefani’s day than the one that was so publicly viewed around the world?
The power Paul affirmed in his letter to the Corinthians, may not come with all the splash and dazzle of a Superbowl half-time show. But, for Paul, the quiet gentle presence of love celebrated in every Eucharist, transcends any glamour or power the world may offer.


To quote Adam Lambert… “I know many of you are thinking, bro, you’re no Freddie Mercury. Well, no sh*t.”
He does not need to be, he is Adam Lambert. Brian May, Roger Taylor and Adam did a fine job, it was an incredible show tonight at the Garden. I may never get to see Freddie (though he was there in spirit and on screen), but I am happy to say I saw Queen. Only phone photos, it was a great night out with the family.


Anyone who’s basically ever lived anywhere but under a rock knows of the iconic actress Marilyn Monroe. But few ever got to see the real deal. My Week with Marilyn is a new film based on the diaries of Colin Clark, who was a 23-year-old newbie to the British film system when Marilyn Monroe and Laurence Olivier starred in The Prince and the Showgirl, a musical that is hardly the most memorable thing that either starred in during their respective fruitful careers. As the third assistant director, Clark was, in his own words, basically the film’s gopher. In this position, however, he finds favor and intimacy with the film’s American star.
The movie actually covers more than one week, instead focusing on the whole period of the filming of The Prince and the Showgirl. Still, it’s a limited palette, but I’m glad that movie tackled only this time frame and didn’t try to do a broad sweeping portrait of Monroe’s entire life or career. My Week with Marilyn is based on true events (at least according to Clark’s writing), although as with any movie that purports this, I wonder just how accurate this is. (For a stellar example of how loose “based on true events” can be, check out the real story behind Saving Private Ryan some time.) For instance, I’m not 100 percent sure that I think the portrayal of Marilyn Monroe is spot-on. Williams no doubt has down the ditzy character that Marilyn played in many of her films but having her be all ‘Gee, I don’t know what he’s talking about?’ in a childish voice when not acting doesn’t seem to ring true. Luckily that side of Marilyn isn’t always the one on view throughout the movie.
However, all in an all, I was thrilled with Michelle Williams as Marilyn Monroe, even though I was somewhat unsure about this going in. I was wary in part from not having seen Williams in enough prior films to be sure of her abilities and in part from having seen other movies based on Monroe’s life where the actresses did not look, sound, and/or act right – or even anywhere near right. Williams, on the other hand, was transformed to really look and sound like Marilyn, so much so that you could almost be fooled at times into thinking here was the real Marilyn Monroe before you. Also like Monroe, Williams lights up the screen when she’s on it and you want to look at nothing her radiance. (It’s a very different feel than her sort of ‘plain Jane’ role in The Baxter, the only other movie I’ve seen her in.)
Williams is surrounded by a cast full of a lot of Hollywood big hitters including Kenneth Branagh, Emma Watson, Julia Ormond, Dominic Cooper, and Dame Judi Dench. Excepting Kenneth Branagh who was also astoundingly good as Sir Laurence Olivier, all the other actors did fine, although not particularly noteworthy, jobs with their roles.
Overall, My Week with Marilyn is entertaining and does not disappointing, but beyond Ms. Williams’s transformation, I wasn’t blown away. I would by no means steer anyone away from watching it, but having seen it once now, I’m good for the long haul.
As an aside, one of the previews at the theater today was for The Artist, which looks amazing and actually has the feel of an old-timey movie when so many others fall short in the respect (I’m looking at you The Aviator, for starters). It’s apparently actually a silent film, which I think is an awesome move. I will definitely be watching this one at some future point.

Boots Electric wants to turn you on. Front man Jesse Hughes from Eagles of Death Metal has released his first track for his upcoming solo project Boots Electric Titled Honkey Kong.
After creating three albums of dirty and danceable garage rock anthems, Hollywood’s favorite son and Eagles of Death Metal frontman, Jesse “The Devil” Hughes, is unveiling his solo debut as Boots Electric. Titled Honkey Kong, the album will be released on September 20th by Dangerbird Records. It was produced by Tony Hoffer (Beck, Depeche Mode, The Kooks) and co-written with legendary keyboardist Money Mark, best known for his many collaborations with the Beastie Boys.
Honkey Kong is the sound of Boots Electric coming out of the closet. Under the moniker, Hughes expands his sonic palette while continuing to deliver the hooks that he’s known for. The electronic drums that kick off opening track “Complexity” immediately signal the new direction. The track is a mix of glam-pop, keyboard-heavy dance grooves, and Hughes’ signature brand of rock ‘n roll grit that drips with swagger. Elsewhere, he tries on space-funk synths on the track “Boots Electric” and “Trippy Blob” has some of his most absurdist lyrics yet.
Though a winking self-awareness has long been one of Hughes’ calling cards, he’s also written some of his most earnest songs yet. “No Ffun” is an honest-to-goodness ballad and “Swallowed by the Night” is a soulful slice of honky tonk gold. Honkey Kong reveals what many already knew – beneath the tongue-in-cheek lyrics and his charismatic strut, Hughes has always been a gifted pop songwriter at heart. Boots Electric is coming out of the closet.
