# Wally Cirillo

Wallace Joseph "Wally" Cirillo (February 4, 1927, Huntington, New York - May 5, 1977, Boca Raton, Florida) was an American jazz pianist and composer.
Cirillo studied at the New York Conservatory of Modern Music (1948–50) and the Manhattan School of Music, and played with Chubby Jackson and Bill Harris in the early 1950s. In 1954 he began working with John LaPorta, Teo Macero and Charles Mingus as part of the New York Jazz Composers Workshop. The following year, he led a session with Mingus, Macero, and Kenny Clarke, which was later reissued under Mingus's name as Jazz Composers Workshop. The piece "Transeason" on this album, composed by Cirillo, makes use of serialism, one of the earliest manifestations of this compositional technique in jazz. He also recorded with LaPorta and with Johnny Mathis in the 1950s.
Cirillo relocated to Florida in 1961, where he led his own band and worked with Phil Napoleon, Flip Phillips, Ira Sullivan, and Joe Diorio. He recorded sparsely throughout his career.

# Coasts in the Mist

Coasts in the Mist (Russian: Берега в тумане) is a 1986 Soviet historical drama film directed by Yuli Karasik.
The film takes place in 1921. Wrangel's army is defeated and takes refuge in Bulgaria. White Army colonel Sergey Egoriev lives here with his son and daughter. Dmitry Shelopugin's family took Sergei's lost wife and his youngest daughter, and Dmitry himself goes to Bulgaria to agitate Russian soldiers.

## Plot

Autumn 1921. Thirty thousand Russian soldiers and officers of the defeated White Army of Wrangel have found refuge in Bulgaria after the evacuation from Crimea. Baron Pyotr Nikolayevich Wrangel (“Olyalin”) receives the report of General Alexander Pavlovich Kutepov (“Shcherbakov”) on the successful completion of troop redeployment. Secret meetings take place among leaders of the White Movement, including Wrangel, General Pavel Nikolaevich Shatilov, Colonel of counterintelligence Pyotr Titolovich Samokhvalov, and representatives of the Entente, including British and French officers and the British spy and adventurer Sidney Reilly (“Yursky”). These meetings discuss plans for subversive operations against Soviet Russia.
Against this backdrop, the story focuses on the fate of White Army Colonel Sergey Egoriev (“Anatoly Kuznetsov”), who has fled through Turkey to Bulgaria with his son and daughter. His wife and youngest daughter, who were left behind in Sevastopol, find refuge with the family of Dmitry Shelapugin (“Leonid Filatov”).

| AllMusic | |
Famous in the Last Century is the twenty-fourth studio album by British rock band Status Quo, released in 2000. According to XS All Areas - band members Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt's duel 2004 autobiography - the idea to record a second covers album (following 1996's Don't Stop) came from the band's then-manager David Walker, who said they should celebrate the millennium with an album containing twenty of their favourite hits from the past century. "Another bloody covers album!" grumbled Rossi. "We went along with it, as usual, but inside I felt like a fraud... for me it was the worst Quo album there had ever been - or ever will be!"
"We didn't wanna do it," Rossi told Classic Rock magazine in 2002, "but it sold. I don't think we'll do another one." However, the band issued another covers album, Riffs, in 2003.
Famous in the Last Century reached No. 19 on the UK Albums Chart, a better position than the previous Quo album of mainly original material, Under the Influence. Two singles from it – "Mony Mony" and "Old Time Rock and Roll" – were minor hits.
Jeff Rich left the band after recording this album and was replaced by Matt Letley.
A DVD & VHS of the same name was filmed at the Shepherd's Bush Empire on 27 March 2000. It is a mimed performance of the album. The group did a live gig after the filming of the video, and a few tracks from it were released as B-sides.
