غلاف Joe Weadick: Red Seven/Columbia Showband Arklow (ePUB)
The memoirs of Arklow’s Red Seven/Columbia Showband as told by its members and some close associates in their individual interesting stories – warts and all – from its formation in 1960 to its demise in 1969. They also give a great insight into the showband era.NEWSWORTHY NOTES FOR BOOK INFO1. In 2001 the then President of Ireland Mary Mc Aleese recognised the musicians of the sixties showband era for giving a generation of Irish citizens wonderful entertainment and lifelong priceless memories.2. The Irish Government recognised and celebrated the Showband Era of the sixties by the immortalisation of a representative number of showbands on Irish postage stamps’.3. Arklow historian Jim Rees, when he was launching the book in 2011, said that in telling our story it tells the story of 90% of the showbands in Ireland. That’s what makes it such a valuable and important social history book.4. The author is convinced that our stories about the showband era of the sixties makes it one of the most important Irish social/music history books of the twentieth century.5. Paranormal Experience. One very stormy night as the band drove home after playing in Eniscrone a distressed girl in her teens or early twenties was on the side of the road thumbing a lift. The driver pulled in and offered her a lift home. She got into the minibus and when asked what about the boy on the side of the road she said he is ok, go ahead. To get the rest of the story you may read the book….’6. If one thinks back to the phenomenon of the sixties showband era you can only wonder why the citizens of Ireland seemed to awaken from a long suppressed sleep and unleash energies they never realised they had.7. There is a copy of my book in the libraries of every University in Ireland. There is also a copy of the book in the Music History Museum in Galway.8. Mr Michael Murphy who lectures in the Dunlaoire IT College said that of all the books he read about the showband era of the sixties my book was the most detailed and accurate.9. My most enjoyable experience was playing in the Gresham Ballroom in London. It had a unique revolving stage . We started playing as it was moving and got a tumultuous applause when we came in view of the four thousand or so dancers. At the same time the resident orchestra was still playing as they were moving out of sight. A wonderful sight to behold.
