This past December 2nd, I was preparing myself for what I referred to as “Sinatra Weekend. It was a Friday, and that coming Sunday, I was to perform for the first time on stage as part of the Sinatra Birthday Bash, an annual tribute concert event held at the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank, New Jersey. Before the show was to be held, a session was scheduled at Carroll’s Music Studio in Midtown Manhattan, a rehearsal where the cast of the production would review their performances with the entire orchestra. When one of my charts was called, I strode to the nearby microphone and took a survey of the entire contingent, a strings and brass ensemble of thirty pieces.
Looking at all of these professionals, I wondered if Sinatra had experienced a similar feeling when reviewing the musical splendor assembled before him. Indeed, December 2nd was a landmark date for Sinatra, as on that day fifty-five years before I stepped up to rehearse a tribute to his music, the singer himself was climbing on stage at Sydney Stadium in Australia, beginning the first of a two-concert date that would mark his second tour to the far flung locale.

Finding that one place with all the information you want on a certain subject is never that easy, especially with the abundance of various pages which emerge on daily basis.
There is however a new football-related website which – in our modest opinion – will provide punters and tipsters with extensive explanations and guidelines towards betting, but with a particular kick toward the Enhanced Betting Odds.
The site is called Dailyenhanced.co.uk and we must say we have been rather impressed with the easy-to-manage layout of the website, in addition to all of the useful information we found on it of course.
What are the Enhanced Odds?

It was the spring of 1973 and the warming evenings found young Greg Garrett playing outside in his backyard. Suddenly and without warning, the unsuspecting child became the first victim of an indescribable monster. A monster that would come to be known as the infamous Enfield Monster.
Every person who witnessed the beast describes it the same: three legs, five feet tall, taloned arms that curl in the front of the torso like a T-Rex, and gleaming red eyes that peer out of the dark with a weird radiance. News reports at the time suggested that the creature may be a kangaroo or gorilla, but with a description like that it seems hard to believe it could be so easily confused with a such common animal.

With this week commemorating what would have been the 73rd birthday of the dearly departed Frank Sinatra, JR., we take a moment to remember a unique recording project he took on some eleven years ago. Covered previously in a biographical installment of “The Sinatra File,” the 2006 album “That Face!” would serve, literally, as the swan song of the younger Sinatra’s recording career, a spread of five studio albums and several guest vocal appearances over a course of more than forty years.
Laid down when Sinatra, JR. was sixty-two and captured over the course of a few days at the renowned Capitol Studios in Hollywood, “That Face!” is an enjoyable listening experience. Produced by Sinatra Enterprises associate Charles Pignone with an orchestra led by JR.-confidante Terry Woodson, the album captures a man who is still on the way to reaching his vocal peak while sounding several years younger. When considering the news that the singer wasn’t feeling up to par during the recording sessions, it makes experiencing the performances all the more remarkable.

About a year ago, 84-year-old country legend Mel Tillis was in critical condition following complications from colon surgery. The entire 2016 year was rocky for his health, but his daughter, Pam, kept country fans at ease with updates about her legendary father. Some parts of the year were scary when she begged fans for prayers, but later posts reassured us Mel was feeling much better. She even went on to say that he was sitting up, watching TV!
“It bears repeating how much your prayers mean to our family…We’ll keep you posted if there is any change, but right now we’re just trying to fatten him up and get him strong!!! Thank you all so much for your thoughts and prayers,” she wrote on Facebook in April 2016.

Old Shuck is the name given to a black dog being found primarily in the folk lores of the British Isle, often said to be associated with the Devil or a Hell-hound. Its appearance was regarded as a portent of death. It is generally supposed to be larger than a normal dog, and often has large, glowing eyes. It is often associated with electrical storms (such as Black Shuck’s appearance at Bungay, Suffolk), and also with crossroads, places of execution and ancient pathways. Throughout European mythology, dogs have been associated with death. Examples of this are the Garmr and Cerberus, who were in some way guardians of the underworld.

British pop singer Rebecca Ferguson says she has been invited to perform at Donald Trump’s inauguration, but her response may not be the RSVP the President-elect’s team were expecting.
The former UK X-Factor runner-up said she would only accept the invitation on the condition that she could perform “Strange Fruit” — a song protesting racism in 1930s America, made famous by Billie Holiday.
In a statement posted to the singer’s Twitter account on Monday night Ferguson said: “I’ve been asked and this is my answer. If you allow me to sing “strange fruit” a song that has huge historical importance, a song that was blacklisted in the United States for being too controversial. A song that speaks to all the disregarded and down trodden black people in the United States. A song that is a reminder of how love is the only thing that will conquer all the hatred in this world, then I will graciously accept your invitation and see you in Washington. Best Rebecca X”
