Bobby Darin - Commitment (1969)

Bobby Darin - 09. Hey Magic Man10. Bobby Darin - 10. Light Blue
Bobby Darin had done some folk-rock before this 1969 album, most notably
on his hit cover of Tim Hardin's "If I Were a Carpenter." Commitment,
however, was his most out-and-out folk-rock album, or at least his most
folk-rockish album. That was apparent not only in the music (which Darin
wrote in its entirety), but also in the packaging, with his billing changed
to "Bob Darin," and a photo of the singer with a moustache and jean jacket
on the back cover. It's a pity, therefore, that the album wasn't too good.
The backup playing is only functional and perfunctory in a generic
late-'60s folk-country-rock fashion, and the songs are neither too melodic
nor too incisive in their lyrics, even as Darin was obviously striving for
meaning. It's not strictly folk-rock. "Light Blue" has some period trippy
lyrics and pseudo-sitar. "Hey Magic Man" has some orchestral, occasionally
vaguely psychedelic embellishments, and is a little more memorable and
pop-friendly than most of the other tunes. Certainly the influence of
another "Bob," Bob Dylan, is to the fore, whether blatantly, as in the
bluesy harmonica-driven "Mr. & Mrs. Hohner," or more subtly. Darin, it must
be pointed out, was not a folk dilettante: he'd recorded some folk material
throughout his career, and given big breaks to players like Roger McGuinn
and Jesse Colin Young before their entrance into folk-rock. In spite of its
consistent sound and vision, in the context of Darin's entire career it's a
curiosity, and not something he did nearly as well as he did pop, rock &
roll, swing jazz, or standards.

Orange Colored Sky - Orange Colored Sky (1968)
Posted: 26 Jan 2015 11:07 AM PST
http://musicofsixties.blogspot.com/2015/01/orange-colored-sky-orange-colored-sky.html
ORANGE COLORED SKY’s roots go back to 1962, when Larry Younger formed The
Fabulous Epics in Erie, PA. The Epics soon moved to New York City and
became the house band at the world–famous Peppermint Lounge. Years later,
Tom Hanks would call them The Wonders and tell their story in his film
‘That Thing You Do’.The Younger Brothers (soon to become Orange Colored
Sky) meet the Beatles at the Peppermint Lounge
Front row, L-R : George Harrison, John LennonBack row, L-R : Larry Younger,
Walter Slivinski, Vinny Younger, Paul McCartney.
In 1968 the band moved to Southern California, was signed by Universal, and
became ORANGE COLORED SKY. SKY hit big in Los Angeles, appearing in the
movie "The Love God" with Don Knotts, in TV commercials with Petula Clark,
on The Steve Allen Show, and in all the hot clubs. SKY soon became regulars
at the Flamingo, Harrah's, and other major venues in Las Vegas, Reno, and
Lake Tahoe.In 1970 SKY replaced The Carpenters as Burt Bacharach's opening
act. SKY also toured with Frank Sinatra and assisted Governor Ronald
Reagan's re-election campaign.SKY released the 45 RPM single "Help" in the
early 1970's on the People label, but it was the B side, "Press A Rose",
that placed on the national charts. Larry Younger and Tony Barry shared
lead vocals; unfortunately, Larry's funky, soulful performance couldn't
overcome People Records' business problems."Press A Rose" (PEOPLE 1007-B)
was well on its way up the Billboard Hot 100 when the company declared
bankruptcy.Legendary producer Don Costa then brought SKY to MGM records,
under the direction of future California Lieutenant Governor Mike Curb. At
MGM, SKY recorded “Simon Zealotes” from the rock opera “Jesus Christ
Superstar”, arranged by Don Costa and released to U.S. radio stations three
months prior to the appearance of the "Superstar" national cast album. The
first eight bars of SKY's version of “Simon Zealotes” are unlike any other
pop recording.Bassist/vocalist Larry Parker joined SKY in 1974. By the
1980's many showrooms had been replaced by discotheques and SKY slowly
disbanded.The band reunited in the early 1990’s, and now includes
bandleader Michael Chanslor (Susan Anton's longtime keyboardist / vocalist
/ conductor / arranger), bassist / vocalist Larry Parker, drummer /
vocalist Dennis Edwards (formerly with Eric Burdon and Eddie Money), and
guitarist / vocalist Tom Bethke. SKY founding member Larry Younger still
makes an occasional guest appearance.In 2005, ORANGE COLORED SKY is still
rockin’, performing classic “feel-good” surf and rock music. SKY’s ‘Beach
Boys Tribute’ continues to win new fans of all ages, and SKY is known to
Southern California sports fans for their unique, a cappella performances
of the “The Star–Spangled Banner” for the Los Angeles Lakers at Staples
Center and for the Mighty Ducks at Arrowhead Pond.ORANGE COLORED SKY
appears with Jay Black (of Jay & the Americans) in Billy Crystal's “My
Giant”, and can be seen and heard in the Academy Award-nominated
film "Ghost World" starring Steve Buscemi and Thora Birch.
