Christian Howes
Jazz Fiddle Revolution (2004) A truly revolutionary album featuring spontaneous duo performances with the brilliant young violinist, Billy Contreras, and guest spots with cellist and trombonist, Dana Leong. This album demonstrates new possibilities in two-violin duets, with the violins accompanying each other in a range of jazz styles, including swing, funk, and blues. Including innocent performances of “What a Wonderful World” and the Rodgers and Hart classic, “It Never Entered My Mind”, as well as bold, fresh takes on other standards such as “The Way You Look Tonight”, “Doxie”, and some originals by Howes and Contreras.

Bobby Hebb and the Beatles, Shea Stadium 59 Years Ago Today August 23, 1966 / Rare Phil Medley (Beatles Songwriter) and Bobby Hebb co-write COLD COLD NIGHTS LIVE

  The Beatles at Shea Stadium 11 cities 16th Show Bobby Hebb and the Beatles The time is 8:10pm. The Remains come on and everyone screams for the Beatles. T hey sing “Money” and everyone is mad because, I think, it is generally thought of as a Beatles song. All the deejays take turns introducing each other. Then they introduce Bobby Hebb, who sings his hit, “Sunny.” Again, come on all the deejays, this time to introduce the Cyrkle. https://joeviglione.substack.com/p/august-23-1966-the-beatles-shea-stadium When they mention Brian Epstein as a manager, everyone screams. Everyone loves the Cyrkle – they are really terrific. They sing their two hits, among others, but play it smart and don’t sing any Beatles songs. After them come the Ronettes. They sing “Shout” (with their other big hits) and we almost boo them off. Finally, Cousin Bruice gets on and says, “Now here’s what you’ve all been waiting for.” And the screams come. The time is 9:17pm. Here they come. First George, then...
