Maurice T. "Maury" Muehleisen was born on this day in 1949, in Trenton, New Jersey, USA, tragically dying at the age of 24 in a plane crash along with Jim Croce and everyone else on board - on their way to a gig.

He was always in the background - unassuming, but it seems to be widely accepted that his guitar playing and songwriting skills went some way to supporting Croce's fame and popularity. Croce himself referred to Maury as his 'band'.

I had no idea that he'd actually recorded a solo album prior to his stint with Jim Croce - it's titled Gingerbreadd. What a dreadful shame he didn't get to mature as a artist - he had a good voice, which although nothing like, for some reason makes me think of Karen Carpenter. 

The lead track from that one and only solo album ...

Happy Birthday to Bob Clearmountain (born Chiaramonte) who was born on this day in 1953, in Connecticut, USA. Clearmountain appears to be a literal translation of Chiaramonte and is a whole lot less tricky to pronounce! Being a good ol' Sicilian surname of nobility in times past, I expect his first name is actually Roberto, but that is a wild guess. 

He started out playing in bands but after his first visit to a professional recording studio, found himself to be much more interested in the engineering/production side of things. His focus is on mixing and he's probably one of, if not the finest, in his field - IMHO. He just happens to have mixed an astonishing number of albums whose sound I particularly love, which is hardly surprising as his discography is exhaustive. Here's his site - https://www.mixthis.com/ - quite entertaining! 

Because it fits perfectly with today's sultry atmosphere in my neck of the woods ...

KID ROCK  (51)

rapper turned country, country rock, redneck/southern rock artist...

my favourite song of his
love the lyrics.






It's another night in hell
Another child won't live to tell
Can you imagine what it's like to starve to death
And as we sit free and well
Another soldier has to yell
Tell my wife and children I love them in his last breath

C'mon now amen, amen, amen

Habitual offenders, scumbag lawyers with agendas
I'll tell you sometimes people I don't know what's worse
Natural disasters or these wolves in sheep clothes pastors
Now damn it I'm scared to send my children to church
And how can we seek salvation when our nations race relations
Got me feeling guilty of being white
But faith in human nature, our creator and our savior, I'm no saint
But I believe in what is right

C'mon now amen, amen
I said amen, amen

Stop pointing fingers and take some blame,
Pull your future away from the flame
Open up your mind and start to live
Stop short changing your neighbors
Living off hand outs and favors, and maybe
Give a little bit more than you got to give

Simplify, testify, identify, rectify
And if I get high stop being so uptight
It's only human nature and I am not a stranger
So baby won't you stay with me tonight

It's a matter of salvation from them patience up above,
So don't give up so damn easy on the one you love, one you love
Somewhere you got a brother, sister, friend, grandmother, niece or nephew
Just dying to be with you
You know there's someone out there who unconditionally, religiously, loves you
So just hold on 'cause you know it's true
And if you can take the pain
And you can withstand anything, and one day
Stand hand in hand with the truth

I said amen, I said amen
I said amen, I said amen,
