CEO

By Jerry Pearce

This week on “Pearce’s Picks,” we look over the sound of one of the great Italian pop crooners of our time, the great Al Martino, a career in music that spanned more than fifty years.

While to mainstream audiences, he is today remembered fondly for his brief but memorable portrayal as distant Corleone family member and troubled multifaceted entertainer Johnny Fontane in Francis Ford Coppola’s 1972 motion picture “The Godfather” (a character carried over from the Mario Puzo novel undoubtedly based on the notoriety of a brooding Frank Sinatra).

Michael McDonald – Boz Scaggs Concert Review – Entertainment News

August 13th, 2016

CEO

By Debbie Edwards

A band can be described as a group of musicians who play various instruments, percussion, wind, brass, or strings, in one united chord. Each of the instruments is different; unique in sound and appearance, yet together, they combine to make beautiful music, a melody that can stir the soul and arouse to action. We dance, we sing along, we remember the good times that we had when we hear our favorite songs, or they may be a marker to a particular event in our lives. Nevertheless, music is powerful, arousing us to differing emotions and action.

A Sinatra Fan’s Tall Tale (And His Recommended Tunes)

August 10th, 2016

CEO

By Jerry Pearce

I’ve been listening to the music of Frank Sinatra regularly since my formative years of high school. In my sophomore year, I received my first Sinatra album as a Christmas gift from a classmate, a compact disc of Sinatra’s next to final album at Capitol Records, the jovial 1961 release “Come Swing With Me,” with Billy May and his orchestra. Riding home from school for holiday break, I popped the disc into my amber-colored (and now fiercely antiquated) Sony CD Walkman.

Listening to the sounds of May’s lit brass section firing off stinging notes from both sides of my headphones on the opening track, “Day By Day,” it was truly the first time I had listened to a Sinatra song that wasn’t considered for (or ever part of) a greatest hits’ compilation.

Swing is the thing this time around on “Pearce’s Picks,” and we feature two rare titles performed exceptionally by two obscure singers whose work, with thanks to the advent of music downloads, have survived into the twenty-first century. It was 1958. There were two men with the first name of Johnny, one on the West Coast, one on the East Coast. One at the beginning of the year, and one at the tail end, they both set out to make some great music.
