MP3 Gregg Outlaw - Tribute to the Myrtle Beach Pavilion
6 MP3 Songs
ROCK: 70''s Rock, ROCK: 80''s Rock
Details:
If you grew up between the 60s and 90s then when someone says "Beach Music" you don''t
necessarily think of the Coasters or the Embers. You probably think of the music YOU listened
to when you were riding down Ocean Blvd. Beach music for many of us was Boston, the
Scorpions, 38 Special, Journey, America, Sweet, or even England Dan and John Ford Coley.
If you have any fond childhood and teenage memories about the Myrtle Beach Pavilion or
of those weekends with your friends then this album is for you. If you remember that
emotional rush that only fully comes with all the firsts associated with being young on a
vacation at the beach then this album is for you.
These are all new songs in the style of our youth that even our children admit is timeless.
They are all rocking but rated "G" so you don''t have to be uncomfortable that the kids like it
to (and they do). Feeling like this is great for making new memories with the family
you''ve made.
So put it in, close your eyes, and remember that first taste of freedom,that first year
you were finally tall enough to ride the coaster,that first kiss and the best friends you ever
made that would fade from your life but not your memory.
The Songs
Miss P (as the Pavilion is known by some) is an upbeat rocker that makes that
proclamation so familiar to anyone who has ridden down 501 waiting for that first glimpse
of the lights and the coaster : There it is! The rest of the song apologizes to the Pavilion herself
for not coming more often as an adult to show support. All this in a rocking style similar to
38 Special.
Pavilion Lights is a heavier, popcorn Scorpions kind of tune that opens with layered
harmonies and a guitar solo that makes you want to "crank it" a little.
Backdrop scolds those too cool musician types that were laboring under the mistaken
impression that the oceanfront vacation oasis had sprung up because they were there.
Pink Slip is in the tradition of 8-track era heavy funk and is about drag racing down old
17 highway, working beachware in the daytime and seeing bands at night. It is even
produced with some induced "wow and flutter" to be more authentic.
These Rides tells of the full circle. Baby pictures of the artist in his early childhood at
the beach with his Dad, morphing through early adulthood with all those firsts, then as a
Dad with his own small children. Amazing how the slow southern power ballod feel of this
one blends so well with the Randy Rhoades meets Glenn Tipton guitar sound of the
lead break.
Ride of Life(Slow Down) bemoans change that we don''t always see as progress, and how,
unlike our wish that growing up and the Sleigh Ride would all go faster, now we''d like it all to
slow down. Bordering on electric folk, this one takes another opportunity to slip in a tasty
solo.
Note to musicians.(Shoulda, woulda, coulda.)
There was a rush to get this out by the beginning of the first Summer
the Pavilion was https://www.tradebit.comh a badly timed ailment and hospitalization, the decision was made to
put this out before some of the scratch vocals were re-tracked. Plenty of opportunity to point
and say "I could have done that". One way or another we beleive you will be entertained,freckles,
warts and all.
