And Now for The Particulars:
Side One
1. The Astronauts: Surf Party
(By Dunham / Bobby Beverly)
45 single bw What’d I Say: RCA Victor 45N 1392
Boulder CO
Rich Fifield: guitar
Dennis Lindsey: guitar
Bob Demmon: guitar
Stormy Patterson: bass
Jim Gallagher: drums
Produced 1964
Another great inland surf band. Like The Trashmen in Minnisota,
or the Echo Tones out of Calgary, The Astronauts were from Boulder, Colorado.
They formed in 1960 as the Stormtroopers and were signed to RCA in an effort
to compete with the Beach Boys who were on Capitol. When the Beatles came
along, everything changed and the Beachboys changed with it; the Astronauts
didn’t get past Project Mercury.
2. Dick Damron: Gonna Have A Party
(D Damron)
Single bw Rockin’ Baby: Laurel Records - 45-792
Bentley AB
Produced 1959
Joseph Glenn Damron, March 22, 1934 in Bentley, Alberta. (Currently 87 yrs
old)
Damron started his career performing in both rock and country
bands. His recording career began in 1957 with his original '45 Gonna Have
A Party/ Rockin' Baby. In the 60s he played only country and like so many
talented Canadian country stars, he could only go so far. It wasn’t until
the late 1970s that things started paying off for Damron when his song “Susan
Flowers” hit big on the country music charts. He was like one of the Outlaws;
Canada’s Waylon Jennings. Susan Flowers was awarded Best Song of the year
at the Big Country Awards.
3. Uriah Heep: Party Time
(Uriah Heep)
Equator: Columbia Records FC 40132
London
Bass, Vocals: Trevor Bolder
Drums: Lee Kerslake
Guitar, Vocals: Mick Box
Keyboards: John Sinclair
Vocals: Peter Goalby
Produced by Tony Platt, 1985
In the early 1980s, Uriah Heep toured the US supporting bands like
Rush, Judas Priest and Def Leppard, whose vocalist Joe Elliott remembered:
"They were the best band that we've ever toured with either as a headline
or support, because there was no ego, no pretentious kind of stuff." The
band's new vocalist was Peter Goalby, formerly of the band Trapeze. He sang
lead vocals on the band’s next three albums, culminating with Equator in
1985.
Equator sold poorly, due to the fact that CBS just did a terrible job getting
it into the shops. It was panned by reviewers. Jason Anderson, for one, argued
that this "lackluster" album rated a "high-schmaltz rating." Goalby left
in November 1985 after an Australian tour, claiming: "I loved and believed
in Uriah Heep but it kicked the shit out of me in the end.”

Produced by Chris Blackwell, The B 52s and Rhett Davies, 1980
Recorded at Compass Point Studios, Nassau, Bahamas
American New Wave / Art Pop band formed in Athens, Georgia, USA
in 1976.
The group were described as having a "thrift store
aesthetic" by drawing from 1950s and 1960s pop sources, trash culture, and
early rock and roll. The name B-52's comes from a particular beehive hairdo
resembling the nose cone of the aircraft, which Kate Pierson and Cindy Wilson
wore in performances. Their second album, Wild Planet, was well received
by critics, most of whom regarded it as a strong second album following the
success of their first. Many of their fans consider it to be their
best album. It reached No. 18 on the Billboard chart in 1980 and was certified
gold.
7. Nitty Gritty Dirt Band: Jambalaya

Randy Scruggs - acoustic guitar
Norman Blake - dobro
Ellis Padgett - acoustic bass
Produced by William McEuen, 1972
A Cajun party is never complete without a Jambalaya stew.
The NGDB started out as a jugband and evolved into a roots
music band, exploring country, bluegrass, ragtime and blues, culminating
in a triple album release called “Will the Circle Be Unbroken” in 1972.
This was considered to be the first real bridge between competing camps:
pop rock and country music. Prior to this recording, country music regarded
rock as a ‘plague’ and condemned any rock artist who tried to join the two.
The Byrds and Flying Burrito Brothers come to mind here. Although Roy Acuff
described them as "a bunch of long-haired West Coast boys," they were able
to persuade country icons like Mother" Maybelle Carter, Doc Watson, Earl
and Randy Scruggs, Merle Travis, Norman Blake and fiddler Vassar
Clements to join them, and opening them to an appreciative rock n’ roll audience.
Much later, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band recorded two subsequent albums follow
ups, Volume II and Volume III, in an attempt to repeat the process with other
historically significant musicians. Volume Two won the Country Music Association's
1989 Album of the Year as well as three Grammys.

Stu was started out as a radio host in his native Saskatchewan,
which included ‘Stu for Breakfast’ and The Cowtown Jamboree. From radio,
Stu moved to television as host of the ‘Red River Jamboree’, a major Saturday-night
show on the CBC TV. In addition to his TV work, Stu recorded his ‘Echoes
of the Canadian Foothills’ album. He moved to Nashville in 1965 to further
his career
.
He signed with RCA Records. With Chet Atkins producing, Stu began hitting
the country charts with Western songs like “Bracero.” He joined the Grand
Ole Opry in 1967 after making some 20 guest appearances at the Ryman Auditorium.
He toured extensively in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, where his records
sold by the thousands. In 1993, Germany’s Bear Family Records released a
CD featuring 35 songs from his early Canadian albums. That same year he was
inducted into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame.
A little more than 31 years after joining the Grand Ole Opry, Stu Phillips
became an American citizen. Having lived in the U.S. longer than Canada,
Stu celebrated his American citizenship on the Opry stage on the 4th of July
weekend in 1998.

version of The Bird Dance was used in various US Movies.
In 2015 they were honoured in the Alberta legislature as Chris Nielsen, an
NDP MLA said: “I rise today to actually ask the assistance of all Members
of the Legislative Assembly in helping to nominate the Emeralds Show and
Dance Band to Canada’s Walk of Fame for the 2016 ceremony. Mr. Speaker, the
Emeralds are truly a Canadian treasure. We’re proud of the fact that they

High praise for a bunch of guys that just started out wanting to entertain
in a polka band.

(Sandy Nelson / Richard Podolor)
Sandy Nelson Plays Teen Beat: Imperial Records LP 12044
Los Angeles CA
Sandy Nelson: drums
Richard Podolor: guitar
Produced by Imperial Records Staff, 1960
While most drummers in the latter 1950s chose to play jazz, Sandy
Nelson concentrated on making rock records. Beginning in 1959, he released
Teen Beat followed by ‘Let There Be Drums’. His first California surf records
were minimalistic: just drums and electric guitar, supplied by Richard Podolor.
He cracked the dance market by releasing a few dozen albums of instrumental,
drum heavy rock hits. Many aspiring young rock drummers, myself included,
would put these records on and drum to them, learning how to swing.
2. Leslie Gore: It’s My Party
(Walter Gold / John Gluck Jr. / Herb Weiner / Seymour Gottlieb)
I'll Cry If I Want To: Mercury Records SR60805
Tenafly NJ
Leslie Gore: vocals
Claus Ogerman Orchestra
Produced by Quincy Jones, 1963
Lesley Sue Goldstein b. May 2, 1946 / d Feb 16, 2015
Just 17 when she recorded her second album, It’s My Party rocketed
up the charts and made Gore’s career. The song was based on actual events
relating to songwriter Seymour Gottlieb's daughter Judy's ‘Sweet 16’ party,
before which she cried over the prospect of her grandparents being invited
saying, “It’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to”. Gottlieb wrote that down
as the premise for the song.
The first recording of the song was in 1962 by The Chiffons for their One
Fine Day album. It was also recorded by Helen Shapiro for her “Helen in Nashville”
album in February 1963. In fact, Phil Specter was interested in recording
it with the Crystals so there was a race to get it out. But it was Gore’s
recording that topped the charts. .
Lesley Gore recalls that "It's My Party" was among some two hundred demos
producer Quincy Jones brought to review with her in the den of her family
home in February 1963. On hearing "It's My Party", Gore told Jones: "That's
not half bad. I like it. Good melody. Let's put it on the maybe pile." In
the end the song proved to be the only demo Gore and Jones found agreeable.
Gore recorded 'It's My Party' at Bell Sound Studios in Manhattan on March
30, 1963.

Recorded by Michael "Nemo" Shields
Eric Hilliard Nelson b. May 8, 1940 Teaneck, NJ / d. December 31, 1985 (45)
De Kalb, TX
"Garden Party" tells of various people who frequently attended
Nelson’s parties with several Beatles’ references. "Yoko brought her
Walrus", referring to Yoko Ono and John Lennon.
One more reference in the lyrics pertains to a particularly mysterious and
legendary audience member: "Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan's shoes, wearing his
disguise". The Mr. Hughes in question was George Harrison, who was a next-door
neighbor and good friend of Nelson. Harrison used "Hughes" as his traveling
alias, and "hid in Dylan's shoes" most likely refers to an album of Bob Dylan
covers that Harrison was planning but never recorded. "Wearing his disguise"
also suggests that Harrison traveled incognito.

FL
This song was recorded at the dawn of Reggae. 1969 brought a
great change to Jamaican popular music in which the ska beat slowed down
into a slow, steady rhythm that was first heard on The Maytals song "Do the
Reggay." Marley approached producer Leslie Kong, who was regarded as one
of the major developers of the reggae sound. For the recording, Kong combined
the Wailers with his studio musicians called Beverley's All-Stars. Gone were
the ska trumpets and saxophones of the earlier songs, with instrumental breaks
now being played on electric guitar.

After the sacking of Syd Barrett, Pink Floyd was kind of rudderless
for a couple of years, trying to figure out how to stay alive. Needing another
album release but not having to songs to do it, they released a double album
called Ummagumma featuring one live records and one studio job. The studio
album featured solo compositions by each member of the band. Grand Vizier’s
Garden Party was Nick Mason’s track. While the live recording is listenable,
the studio album was not something you’d just throw on your turntable; it
was just too weird. It would take the band another year to realize their
potential sans Syd.
