# Bill Ashton (jazz musician)

William Michael Allingham Ashton OBE (6 December 1936 – 8 March 2025) was a British band leader, saxophonist and composer who was best known for co-founding NYJO - the British National Youth Jazz Orchestra, of which he was Musical Director from 1965 until his retirement in 2009 when he became Life President.

## Career

From 1955 to 1957, he was educated at Rossall School which soon developed into a career in the Royal Air Force doing National Service, before he then went to Oxford University in 1957, where he first began playing jazz professionally at functions and competitions, founding the Oxford University Big Band. On leaving university in 1960, he went to France and worked as a professional musician in the American army bases for about nine months. Returning to London he started to join various blues bands, while supply teaching, mostly French. At one school, Highbury County Grammar School in Islington, he was immensely popular among the boys for his relaxed style, regaling them with anecdotes about his show business contacts as well as snippets related to his National Service. After working with Red Bludd’s Bluesicians, he founded what became NYJO with Pat Evans and Mike Kershaw in 1965.
Ashton was highly regarded as an indefatigable promoter of British jazz talent, by organising tours, producing recordings, encouraging established players to collaborate with the band and publishing the works of young jazz composers.
He was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) for services to jazz in 1978 and Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2010 Birthday Honours. Ashton had also received the BBC Radio 2 Jazz Award in 1995 for his Services to Jazz, a Silver Medal from the Worshipful Company of Musicians, and was a Fellow of Leeds College of Music.

# Across the Black Soil Plains

Across the Black Soil Plains is a 1899 painting by Australian artist George Washington Lambert. The landscape depicts a team of draft horses pulling a wagon heavily laden with wool bales. Lambert's painting was awarded the Wynne Prize in 1899.
The painting had its inspiration in Lambert's experiences in droving sheep, seeing "horse teams hauling heavily laden wool wagons across the bare, miry, flat lands of Snakes Plain from Warren to the railway station at Nevertire.".
   As a boy in the bush I did much work with draft [sic] horses ... [One] called Barney had such fine action and such imposing carriage ... and possibly what knowledge I displayed in connection with horses in ‘Black Soil Plains’ originated with my association with this exceptionally fine animal
Lambert composed the painting in a shed at its mother's house in Hornsby, a suburb of Sydney. When working on the painting, Lambert placed the long and narrow canvas diagonally in the shed. Several names have been suggested as the model for the teamster, including Jim Smith from the Warren district, Luke Rollins from Moree or Henry Sharkey, who carted a record load of wool from Louth to Bourke.
The painting was a critical success with the Sydney Morning Herald stating "‘In this long narrow canvas the young artist paints with astonishing vigour and sense of movement ... in every conceivable attitude the horses tug and strain at the heavy load."
The painting was also subject of a poem of the same name as journalist Gordon Tidy (c. 1862–1953) under his pen name 'Mousquetaire' in The Bulletin, 30 October 1902. His words have been compared to Will H. Ogilvie's 'How the Fire Queen crossed the swamp'.
The painting was acquired by the Art Gallery of New South Wales at the New South Wales Society of Artists exhibition in 1899 and remains part of its collection.

Joseph Chamberlain and Arthur Balfour is an 1895 portrait painting by the English artist Sydney Prior Hall. It depicts two prominent politicians Joseph Chamberlain and Arthur Balfour seated on the government benches in the House of Commons. The two men respectively held the posts of colonial secretary and president of the Local Government Board in the Salisbury government headed by Lord Salisbury.

The Conservative Balfour went on to serve as prime minister between 1902 and 1905 and as foreign secretary issued the Balfour Declaration during the First World War. The Liberal Unionist Chamberlain's sons Austen and Neville went on to serve as foreign secretary and prime minister respectively during the interwar years.

# Heavy Breathing

Heavy Breathing is an American rock band from Washington D.C. formed in 2010 by guitarist Erick Jackson, drummer Jeff Schmid, and keyboardist Amanda Kleinman, who were formerly in the band The Apes. They have released three albums, "Body Problems" in 2012, "Airtight" in 2015, and "C.P.R." in 2019.
In November 2016, the band attracted attention after performing at Comet Ping Pong. A video circulated online which shows Amanda Kleinman (Majestic Ape) speaking on stage during a birthday party held for Comet Pizza's band promoter Sasha Lord (a former troupe leader for the Girl Guides). In the clip, you can hear Kleinman taking about how much they want Sasha Lord, while noting that others in attendance may simply want the "perks" she provides. Kleinman then goes on to mention that a man named "Cherry" likes to hangout there because he "likes the sounds", at which point members from the audience yell out "and little boys!". Kleinman giggles and responds "we all have preferences".
Kleinman has also used pedophilic images in her music videos.
The New York Times reported that Amanda Kleinman deleted her Twitter account after receiving abusive comments from those who believed in the Pizzagate conspiracy theory. In an interview with the magazine, Kleinman said "We are at a dangerous place in American culture where a good percentage of people aren’t distinguishing what is a real news source based on real reporting and fact-checking and only reinforcing pre-existing ideas they have". After receiving death threats, Kleinman took screenshots of them to report to the police.

# Polyrock

Polyrock was an American post-punk/new wave band formed in New York City in 1978 and active until the mid-1980s. Strongly influenced by minimalism, the group was produced by the composer Philip Glass and Kurt Munkacsi. The band, led by singer/guitarist Billy Robertson (formerly of the group Model Citizens), had a keyboard-heavy, pattern-based sound strongly reminiscent of Glass's work; in fact, Glass performed on their first two albums.
Polyrock's lineup also included vocalist Catherine Oblasney, guitarist Tommy Robertson, drummer Joseph Yannece, keyboard player Lenny Aaron, and Curt Cosentino. The group signed with RCA by 1980, and delivered their debut album that same year. Another album followed in 1981 (Changing Hearts), but Polyrock disbanded in 1983. The band are sometimes said to have released another album in 1981 (Electro-Romantic), but, apparently, no such album exists.
They were often compared by critics to Talking Heads, another band of the same era, though they never approached that band's fame.
In 1990, Billy Robertson and Catherine Oblasney formed the group 9 Ways to Sunday and released a self-titled album.
Robertson died in September 2018. A memorial was held September 24, 2018, at the Brooklyn Ice House bar in the Red Hook neighborhood of Brooklyn, near where Robertson lived.

# Break on Me

"Break on Me" (stylized as "Break on Me.") is a song written by Ross Copperman and Jon Nite and recorded by New Zealand-born Australian country music singer Keith Urban. It was released on 23 October 2015 as the second single from Urban's 2016 album Ripcord. This ballad with its prominent bassline (played by Tal Wilkenfeld) was co-produced by Urban along with Nathan Chapman and has been deemed a stylistic counterpoint to its funky predecessor "John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16". The song is also the second of his career to not have an accompanying music video, after 2010's "I'm In".

## Critical reception

Billy Dukes of Taste of Country complimented both the "nuanced" songwriting and Urban's "understated and accessible" delivery of the lyrics, noting that his approach elevates the song to something special.

## Chart performance

"Break on Me" was the most-added song at country radio for the week of 26 October 2015 with 67 stations, according to radio monitoring organization Mediabase. It debuted at number 54 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart on the week of 7 November 2015. The following week, the song debuted at number 24 on the US Hot Country Songs chart, selling 22,000 copies in its first week. On the Country Airplay chart for the week of 12 March 2016, "Break on Me" reached it peak at number one on the chart, making for the biggest jump to number one since Rascal Flatts' "Here Comes Goodbye" in April 2009, also ascended from number six to number one. As of May 2016, the song has sold 265,000 copies in the US. On February 24, 2017, the single was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for combined sales and streaming data of over 500,000 units in the United States.

| The Rolling Stone Album Guide | |
Years Gone By is the third studio album by Albert King, released by Stax Records in 1969. In the same year, the album reached number 46 on Billboard R&B Albums chart and number 133 on Billboard 200.

## Critical reception

In AllMusic, Cub Koda said: "King cranked out this solid, if typical, album for the Stax label after the success of Born Under a Bad Sign. With Booker T. & the M.G.'s drummer Al Jackson Jr. producing, the set includes such staples as "You Threw Your Love on Me Too Strong," "Wrapped up in Love Again," and a powerful version of Howlin' Wolf's "Killing Floor." For fans of King's guitar work, the inclusion of the instrumental workouts on "You Don't Love Me" and "Drowning on Dry Land" are a special bonus. Not an essential Albert King album, but one of his good ones."
