Today I’d like to pay tribute to the American singer, songwriter, pianist, satirist and mathematician (!) Tom Lehrer, who passed away two days ago at the age of 97. His active music career lasted from 1953, when he relesed his debut album to 1972 when he had his last concert appearance for decades.
Although this is a time span of almost 20 years, his career was relatively brief. He only released five albums, and according to himself he held 109 concerts and wrote 37 songs (although these numbers may be up for debate). Still this was enough to secure him a cult following in the decades to come, and he is still not totally forgotten.
Tom Lehrer was a Harvard graduate, and perhaps this is were his real interest was. By the early 1970’s he had become a teacher in mathematics and musical theatre, a job he held for the rest of his working life. Still, he did not abandon music completely. He kept writing music for TV shows and plays, and made a few rare appearances in concert and on TV.
Songwriters known for satirical lyrics has cited Tom Leherer as an inspiration, among them Donald Fagan (Steely Dan) and Randy Newman. So I think this man deserves a mention and a short tribute now that he has left this world. So here’s what may be his best known song. To the memory of Tom Lehrer
Tom Lehrer - We Will All Go Together When We Go (live in Oslo 1967)
In 1945 Tom Lehrer wrote a song called Fight Fiercly Harvard. The song is about a football game, but its title has unfortunately become relevant in in the US today.
Tom Lehrer - Fight Fiercely Harvard (recorded in 1953, I think)

Happy Brirthday to the English guitarist and singer Ted Turner, who is turning 75 today. Known from Wishbone Ash, a band who had considerable success in the UK in the first part of the 1970’s and some beyond. Four of their first five albums made the top 20 in the UK album charts, the highest being Argus (1972) peaking at number 3.
Ted Turner has also done some session work, most notebly playing acoustic guitar on two tracks on John Lennon’s Imagine album. He’s also been recording with George Harrison, Al Stewart and Cilla Black.
In 1974 Ted Turner quit Wishbone Ash, due to fatigue from constant touring. Since then he’s been active in various projects and released three albums, two of them with his wife. Also he’s had several reunions with Wishbone Ash, a band that is still going today.
So let’s celebrate Ted Turner’s birrthday with him singing and playng guitar on Jail Bait

Oh what a coincidence. Though I have to say I like the other video to this song better.
Can’t get this song out of my head right now. Listened to it like… A LOT… the last couple of days as I used it in a sexy video featuring Rollie that I’ve been working on. Extended the intro a bit for my video, which can be found in the Agnes & Neo topic. I’m quite satisfied with how that video turned out, if you don’t mind a little bit of shameless self promotion.
