Hermann News

The price of regular gasoline in Hermann is now $3.649 per gallon.
Voter turnout for yesterday's local election was pathetically low. Incumbent Ward 1 Alderman John Penning lost his seat to Bruce Cox. Bob Arnsmeyer finished second in the three-man race. Incumbent Ward 2 Alderman Brian Chorley retained his seat, though challenger Joe Gleeson came within only 28 votes of upsetting him. The Gasconade County R-1 School Board race returned the two incumbents, Craig Schannuth and Marilyn Rethemeyer, who were seeking re-election to the board, and joining them will be Brenda Bader, who ended up garnering the most votes out of five candidates. Bader, who grew up in the school district (the Bay area) and now lives near Big Spring in Montgomery County, received 786 votes from three counties --Gasconade, Franklin and Montgomery. Schannuth, who is returning to the school board for the second time, received 685 votes and Rethemeyer pulled in 666 votes. Sherry Englert of Rhineland, who ran unsuccessfully for the second time, received 458 votes and Kirk Heil, a first-time candidate who lives near Americus, had 196 votes.

Song Of The Day - "Tears In Heaven" by Eric Clapton - Wednesday, 4/6/2011

Published by Lois Lame, Assistant Editor

"Tears in Heaven" is a ballad written by Eric Clapton and Will Jennings about the pain Clapton felt following the death of his four-year-old son, Conor, who fell from a window of the 53rd-floor New York apartment of his mother's friend, on March 20, 1991. Clapton, who arrived at the apartment shortly after the accident, was visibly distraught for months afterwards. This song is one of Clapton's most successful, reaching #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in the U.S. The song also spent three weeks at #1 on the American Adult Contemporary chart in 1992.

Will Jennings, who worked with Clapton on the song, was reluctant at first to help him with such a personal song. The song was initially featured on the soundtrack to the film Rush, followed by Unplugged, and it won three Grammy Awards for Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Male Pop Vocal Performance at the 1993 Grammy Awards.

"Eric and I were engaged to write a song for a movie called Rush. We wrote a song called 'Help Me Up' for the end of the movie... then Eric saw another place in the movie for a song and he said to me, 'I want to write a song about my boy.' Eric had the first verse of the song written, which, to me, is all the song, but he wanted me to write the rest of the verse lines and the release ('Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees...'), even though I told him that it was so personal he should write everything himself. He told me that he had admired the work I did with Steve Winwood and finally there was nothing else but to do as he requested, despite the sensitivity of the subject. This is a song so personal and so sad that it is unique in my experience of writing songs." ~ Will Jennings

Clapton stopped playing it in 2004, as well as the song "My Father's Eyes".

"I didn't feel the loss anymore, which is so much a part of performing those songs. I really have to connect with the feelings that were there when I wrote them. They're kind of gone and I really don't want them to come back, particularly. My life is different now. They probably just need a rest and maybe I'll introduce them for a much more detached point of view." ~ Eric Clapton

Shortly after his single was released, he went on to the MTV Unplugged series and recorded a new version of the song.

Here is Eric Clapton performing one of my favorite songs of all time, "Tears In Heaven", live at Madison Square Garden, NewYork City in 1999 .....

Bible Verse Of The Day - Luke 4:9-12 - Wednesday, 4/6/2011

Published by Lois Lame, Assistant Editor

Post: 2,031

The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. For it is written: “‘He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’” Jesus answered, “It says: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’” – Luke 4:9-12 (NIV)

When Satan tries to twist the Scripture to get Jesus to jump, Jesus holds His ground. Jesus was secure in the Father’s care. He did not need to test God by doing foolish things. Are we able to trust the Father’s care so much that we can stay the course? God has already proven His love for you through Jesus Christ; rest in that love. Those who can hold on to this are less prone to careless actions.

Song Of The Day - "Carnival of Venice" by Wynton Marsalis and The Boston Pops - Tuesday, 4/5/2011

Published by Lois Lame, Assistant Editor

Date: 4/5/2011
Post: 2,030

Wynton Learson Marsalis (born October 18, 1961) is a trumpeter, composer, bandleader, music educator, and Artistic Director of Jazz at Lincoln Center. Marsalis has promoted the appreciation of Classical and Jazz music often to young audiences. Marsalis has been awarded nine Grammys in both genres, and was awarded the first Pulitzer Prize for Music for a jazz recording.

Marsalis is the son of jazz musician, Ellis Marsalis, Jr. (pianist), grandson to Ellis Marsalis, Sr. and brother to Branford (saxophonist), Delfeayo (trombonist), Mboya, and Jason (drummer).

Wynton was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, on October 18, 1961, to Dolores and Ellis Marsalis, the second of six sons. At an early age he exhibited an aptitude for music. At age eight, Wynton performed traditional New Orleans music in the Fairview Baptist Church band led by banjoist Danny Barker, and at 14, he performed with the New Orleans Philharmonic. During high school, Wynton performed with the New Orleans Symphony Brass Quintet, New Orleans Community Concert Band, New Orleans Youth Orchestra, New Orleans Symphony, various jazz bands and with a local funk band, the Creators.

At age 17, Wynton was the youngest musician admitted to Tanglewood's Berkshire Music Center, where he won the school's Harvey Shapiro Award for outstanding brass student. Wynton moved to New York City to attend Juilliard in 1979, and picked up gigs around town. In 1980, Wynton joined the Jazz Messengers led by Art Blakey. In the years that followed, Wynton performed with Sarah Vaughan, Dizzy Gillespie, Sweets Edison, Clark Terry, Sonny Rollins, Ron Carter, Herbie Hancock, Tony Williams and countless other jazz legends.

In 1995, PBS premiered Marsalis On Music, an educational television series on jazz and classical music hosted and written by Marsalis. Also, in 1995, National Public Radio aired the first of Marsalis’ 26-week series, entitled Making the Music. Wynton's radio and television series were awarded the George Foster Peabody Award. Marsalis has also written five books: Sweet Swing Blues on the Road, Jazz in the Bittersweet Blues of Life, To a Young Musician: Letters from the Road, Jazz ABZ (an A to Z collection of poems celebrating jazz greats), and his most recent release Moving to Higher Ground: How Jazz Can Change Your Life.

In 1987, Wynton Marsalis co-founded a jazz program at Lincoln Center. In July 1996, Jazz at Lincoln Center was installed as new constituent of Lincoln Center. In October 2004, Marsalis opened Frederick P. Rose Hall, the world's first institution for jazz containing three performance spaces (including the first concert hall designed specifically for jazz) along with recording, broadcast, rehearsal and educational facilities. Wynton presently serves as Artistic Director for Jazz at Lincoln Center and Music Director for the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra.

Here is a much younger Wynton Marsalis performing "Carnival of Venice" with the Boston Pops.

Bible Verse Of The Day - Matthew 4:8-10 - Tuesday, 4/5/2011

Published by Lois Lame, Assistant Editor

Date: 4/5/2011
Post: 2,026

Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.” Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’” – Matthew 4:8-10 (NIV)

Satan tempts Jesus with unparalleled power, but in a stunning reversal of the Garden of Eden, Jesus resists temptation and stands on the word of God. Whether Satan could give Jesus the kingdoms of the world and their splendor is a debatable point, but it didn’t matter to Jesus. He was destined to have those kingdoms anyway, but not through a deal with the devil. As Jesus obeyed the Father all the way to the cross, God would establish the name of Jesus above every other name. How about us? Are we trying to cut corners to get to our dreams, or are we willing to surrender to God and trust Him?

Song Of The Day - "You're The One" by The Vogues - Monday, 4/4/2011

Published by Lois Lame, Assistant Editor

Date: 4/4/2011
Post: 2,023

The Vogues are an American vocal group from Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania, a suburb of Pittsburgh. The original group consisted of Bill Burkette (lead baritone), Don Miller (baritone), Hugh Geyer (first tenor) and Chuck Blasko (second tenor).

Originally, the group was called The Val-Airs. Their high school principal helped them make their first demo. Their first and only record as The Val-Airs was "Launie, My Love". first released by local record label Willett Records (owned by the group's manager, Elmer Willett), then distributed nationally on Coral Records. Soon after the song's release, the group adopted the name The Vogues, derived from Vogue Terrace, a popular teenage dance hall (which also housed Willett Records) in North Versailles, Pennsylvania, near the group's hometown. They soon signed a recording contract with a small Pittsburgh-based label, Co & Ce Records, run by Herb Cohen and Nick Cenci. The group broke nationally in 1965 with a cover of Petula Clark's "You're The One" that rose to No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and was followed the same year by "Five O'Clock World", which also reached No. 4. Two further singles, "Magic Town" and "The Land of Milk and Honey", did not reach the same heights, but still made Billboard's Top 40 in 1966.

The group's fortunes dwindled until a move in 1968 to Reprise Records and a revival on the charts with the million-selling cover of Glen Campbell's "Turn Around, Look at Me", and No. 7 cover of Bobby Helms' "My Special Angel". The group lost favor in the 1970s, but various groupings used the name The Vogues into the 2000s. Subsequent business moves allowed the new owner of their trademark name to later assign it to another group of all-new artists. Original member Chuck Blasko, performing with other singers as Chuck Blasko's Five O'clock World Reunion, subsequently lobbied Congress to make changes in trademark laws to prevent others from misrepresenting themselves as the original Vogues.

As of March 2007, original member Hugh Geyer, who had briefly toured with Blasko's group, was touring the country with another version of The Vogues. Blasko continues to perform as Chuck Blasko & The Vogues in 14 Western Pennsylvania counties that were awarded to him by the courts.

As of May 2008 original lead vocalist Burkette has joined Geyer touring the country with the 'trademark' Vogues. Current members include vocalists Burkette, Geyer, Jim Campagna, Stan Elich, and Troy Elich, Tom Lamb (guitar and musical director), Artie Delonardis (drums), Dean Mastrangelo (keyboards) and Rich Gooch (bass). The Vogues trademark owner, Stan Elich, passed away in December, 2010, and his son, Troy, now owns the trademark. Vocalist Jim Campagna no longer tours because of health issues. Bill Burkette, Hugh Geyer and Troy Elich continue to tour as The Vogues.

The original group was inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2001.

Here are The Vogues performing their 1965 hit, "You're The One".
