Salvy Benson Medley From Kitt Cox

From Kitt Cox-
“The idea was this….
I got to know Salvi when I worked for many years cooking at Sailor Stan’s. Two guys, two different backgrounds but we hit it off pretty well, especially when it came to relating the tales of our lives (it was my father who famously said, “any damn fool can tell the truth”).
It was also during my Rocky Neck years that the inspiration for both the song and the Sunny FishCakes (that name appeared to me on some barely decipherable ticket for a breakfast order that some waitron had just scribbled out).
So flash forward to this winter when we gathered musicians and friends into our West Gloucester home to record the song I’d been inspired to write by Salvi. Fisherman’s Ale and fiery burritos and a couple live take son the recording machine and we had our song, shaped by each of those present that evening. With the microphone still on, Sal shared his memories of the Greasy Pole and all of the fine folks and adventures his thoughts brought back. Doc Vincent caught it all and put the sound through his wayback machine.We had a blast making this recording and hope you’ll find something in it for you, too.”

Last night’s CD Release Party with Chelsea!

Chelsea9:00pm – Dog Bar was packed. Chelsea Berry was setting up for a night of music promoting her new CD.  With a keen sense of humor and bluntness, the singer-songwriter kept the audience entertained for hours. She sang her own songs as well as covers that were meaningful to her. More than once, the only sound in the room was Chelsea’s  incredible music. Her cover of Susan Werner’s “May I Suggest” brought tears to many listeners’ eyes. She invited Pete Lindberg, Bradley Royds and a cast of others to round out the night. What a show!

Go listen for yourself at the Rhumb Line around 7:30 Sunday night where she’ll be playing with friend and cohort Pete Lindberg. You’ll be glad you did.

You can read more about Chelsea in Mike Lindberg’s (Pete’s dad) post here on GMG.

THURSDAY MAY 28th

From Dave Sag on the Rhumb Line’s Thursday Night Blues Party

This Thursday sees the triumphant return of two musical monsters: Keyboard millipede and vogalist xtremondo Mr. Joe Bargar and three-fisted drummber Mr. Joey Scrima. We have’nt seen Joey in awhile, due to a horrible inkjet printer accident and we’re happy to have a copy of him to flail the nite away. Joe, of course has been here more recently. He’s a busy guy and I’m glad to have him back once again. Look out for his gut-wrenching version of the classic “Drown in my own tears” : I’m bringin’ my hanky, and an EMT will be on call for those of you with heart problems. As  for the rest of us, Greg T. and I will be on duty, just tryin’ to keep up.
See you there!

Journey tribute group’s show to rock Gloucester House Saturday

By Gloucester Times Staff

The music of Journey — the 1970s and 1980s group that, with lead singer Steve Perry at the helm, churned out hits such as “Don’t Stop Believin’,” “Foolish Heart,” “Oh Sherrie,” “Open Arms” and more — will be ringing loud and clear in Gloucester this Memorial Day weekend.

A performance called Captured — The Journey Show, featuring a Boston-based Journey tribute band, will be playing Saturday night at The Gloucester House, with tickets priced at $10 and doors set to open for the show at 8 p.m.

Unlike other tribute acts, Captured — the Journey Show isn’t merely pegged as a tribute band.

The show is billed as one of the country’s premier tributes to Steve Perry and Journey, covering all of the hits from the late 1970s though the 1990s, including some rare cuts. But the performers view themselves as a “cast,” with John Robert Murphy playing the role of Perry, who was Journey’s front man before deciding and announcing in 1987 that he was “toast” and that it was time to leave the group. Journey has reformed and carried on — without Perry — and is once again touring more than two decades later.
