MARIA COOPER JANIS ARTIST, AUTHOR, BIOGRAPHER, DAUGHTER OF SCREEN LEGEND GARY COOPER AND WIFE OF LEGENDARY AMERICAN CLASSICAL PIANIST BYRON JANIS: AN INTIMATE CHAT WITH MARIA AND BYRON. *Note: Mr. Janis battled through laryngitis and a nagging cough to take part in this interview. We all thank you for your perseverance and Indomitable Spirit. Hello and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends I'm your host Ray Shasho. Maria Cooper Janis was born in Los Angeles, California and lived there with her parents, the actor Gary Cooper and his wife Veronica Cooper. She followed a painting career in New York and in 1966 married the world-renowned concert pianist, Byron Janis. Although Mr. Janis' busy schedule has led them all over the world, Mrs. Janis has enjoyed a successful career as an artist. She pursues her paintings with great energy, exhibiting in the United States as well as Europe and Asia. She has written a book Gary Cooper off Camera: A Daughter Remembers which gives an inside look into the persona of one of the greatest movie stars of all time. Maria Cooper Janis has also worked on a feature film documentary, “The True Gen,” about the special 20-year friendship between Gary Cooper and Ernest Hemingway, the score of which is composed by Byron Janis. Byron Janis is internationally renowned as one of the world's greatest pianists. He made his orchestral debut at age 15 with Toscanini's NBC Symphony Orchestra and the following year was chosen by Vladimir Horowitz as his first student.  At 18, he became the youngest artist ever signed to a contract by RCA Victor Records. Two years later, in 1948, he made his Carnegie Hall debut which was hailed as an unparalleled success. He has a special affinity for Chopin and made a French film on him that was shown around the world. He was honored by several U.S. Presidents and in 1984, at a State Dinner at the White House in his honor at the invitation of President Ronald Reagan, he revealed that he had been suffering from severe arthritis throughout much of his decades-long career. The painful and crippling condition eventually required surgery on his hands. However, he recovered sufficiently to resume performing and recording commercially and continues to do so today.

Utter opposites... nothing in common. The cowboy and the suburbanite. The conservative and the liberal. And yet these two artists (a word both men scoffed at) were the best of friends, right up to their deaths a mere seven weeks apart in 1961. But is the friendship of these two men really so surprising? A study of these two men is a study of the 20th century. Their internationally renowned careers (Cooper, two Best Actor Academy Awards; Hemingway, Nobel and Pulitzer Prizes) were played out over the same turbulent decades: the hedonistic 20s, the grim Depression 30s, the war-ravaged 40s, and the deceptively slumbering 50s. available at amazon.com FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT MARIA COOPER JANIS VISIT https://www.mariacooperjanis.com/ Official website https://www.facebook.com/mariacooperjanis/ Facebook https://www.instagram.com/mariacooperjanis/?hl=en Instagram BYRON JANIS https://www.byronjanislive.com/ Official website https://www.facebook.com/ByronJanis Facebook   https://twitter.com/ByronJanisMusic Twitter https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCi0mmq2O8XSDPCh2w8wb9TA YouTube https://www.instagram.com/ByronJanisMusic/ Instagram GARY COOPER SITES https://www.garycooper.com/ Official website https://www.garycooper.com/blog/maria-cooper-7j5xd Blog https://www.facebook.com/GaryCooperVerifiedPage/?ref=tn_tnmn Facebook   https://twitter.com/_GaryCooper Twitter https://www.instagram.com/gary_cooper_official/ Instagram VERY SPECIAL THANKS TO Bettina Klinger Managing Director for arranging this interview today with Maria Cooper Janis and Byron Janis.   Support us on PayPal!

Here's an interesting combination from my dad's shellac disks from RCA Victor Records. He had several albums made FOR children and several that seem like they were made BY children. Four sides you'll hear is a familiar story of encouragement, determination and pride. The other four sides are pure musical comedy by the master of the art. So get ready to put these eight sides together in one show with Volume 132: A 78 RPM Railroad Spike.

Barraud's most famous work, His Master's Voice, is one of the best-known commercial logos in the world, having inspired a music industry trademark depicting a Jack Russell Terrier named Nipper listening to his deceased master's voice from a gramophoneCompo it was one of only two Canadian record companies to survive the Great Depression. RCA Victor Records of Canada—formerly Berliner Gramophone—was the other (it is currently the oldest Canadian label that forms part of Sony Music Entertainment in Canada).

Label: RCA 8368Year: 1964Condition: MLast Price: $30.00. Not currently available for sale.Here's a gorgeous Mint copy of this great Sam Cooke single, with two hit sides. Note: This copy comes in a vintage RCA Victor Records factory sleeve. The labels have a touch of storage wear, but this vinyl looks untouched, and the audio sounds pristine Mint! (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)

Label: RCA 9140Year: 1967Condition: M-Last Price: $24.00. Not currently available for sale.Everybody knows and loves the A side of this great single, but the B side is a 2-star destination in its own right! It's an amazing amalgam of Bo Diddley, Beatles, and psychedelia all stirred up into an exciting thrill ride that's uniquely Jefferson Airplane. Now, exactly what her funny cars are and what's so funny about them is a secret the band keeps to themselves. But hey, the words sound great anyway! Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage RCA Victor Records factory sleeve. The vinyl and labels look almost Mint, and the audio sounds that way!

Label: RCA 7890Year: 1961Condition: M-Price: $18.00Here's a beautiful copy of Don Gibson's 1961 masterpiece, fully deserving of 2 stars (our highest recommendation). By the way, this was a non-album single whose A side is available only on later Greatest Hits compilations. Note: This 45 record comes in a vintage RCA Victor Records factory sleeve. The labels look Mint. The vinyl looks only lightly touched, and the audio sounds pristine.

Label: RCA 0353 djYear: 1970Condition: MPrice: $125.00Here's a beautiful Mint promo copy of this rare 1970 release, the only recordings by this band as far as I know. The "Plug" side is a nice Sunshine Pop number, but the real value here is the amazing flip... hard to describe, so have a listen to the mp3 "snippet" of it. Note: This 45 record comes in a vintage RCA Victor Records factory sleeve. It has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

Label: RCA 0195Year: 1969Condition: M-Price: $20.00Another great two-sided classic from this underrated group, showing what a truly serendipitous partnership Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman had formed. When he avoided going over the top on vocals (as he occasionally did), Cummings was a classic Rock vocalist with a gift for melodic pop hooks behind most of their big hits. Somewhat in the background, guitarist Randy Bachman could also write lyrics and tunes with the best of them, and he understood the importance of rhythm, rock's rougher edges, and how to seamlessly meld them with Cumming's pop instincts. Of course, he later proved he could form a different kind of rock band — one with that harder edge but with the catchy, Top-40 side of great Power Pop — when he teamed up with vocalist Fred Turner in Bachman-Turner Overdrive.Here, the A side was the Top 10 hit, and the B side is nearly as famous. "Undun" features both lyrics and music by Bachman, and shows him waxing philosophic in his tale of a "fallen" woman. The arrangement is reminiscent of what Todd Argent had been doing with the Zombies, and in particular echoes their Spring 1969 hit, "Time of the Season." By the way, both tracks are specially edited versions of their respective album cuts (3:05 and 4:17).Collector Nerd Alert: This is the first pressing, with more than one publisher listed on the labels. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage RCA Victor Records factory sleeve. It has Mint labels and Near Mint vinyl and audio.

Label: RCA 9583Year: 1968Condition: M-Last Price: $20.00. Not currently available for sale.This was the second attempt by RCA to get this great single played in the U.S.... and this time they got it into the top 40. It was first released a year earlier on RCA 9186. Both sides are essential listening! Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage RCA Victor Records factory sleeve. It has pristine Mint, very powerful audio.

Label: RCA 0217Year: 1974Condition: M-Price: $10.00I've been in love with this tune since the very first time I heart Burton Cummings belting out that acapella intro back in '74. It's great to have a copy back in the store! The flip is an uncharacteristically hard rocker. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage RCA Victor Records factory sleeve. It has pristine Mint audio.

Label: RCA 8769Year: 1966Condition: M-Last Price: $35.00. Not currently available for sale.Here's a beautiful copy of the band's rare, very first single, which somehow failed to chart though it's an essential tune from the band's repertoire. This is only the second original release of this single I've yet had to offer in the store, and it has pristine Mint audio... Have a listen to the mp3 "snippet"! The B side is another great rocker. Note: This 45 record comes in a vintage RCA Victor Records factory sleeve. It has Mint labels, very nearly Mint-looking vinyl and pristine Mint audio.

If you've ever scanned through iTunes, dug through the crates at a record store, or watched a documentary or movie, chances are you know Chuck Stewart's work.

Featured Song “Intoxicated Rat” by the Dixon Brothers.South Carolina brothers Dorsey and Howard Dixon worked for many years in Carolina textile mills, and some of their original compositions were sung by striking mill workers during labor disputes in the early 1930’s. This earned them the nickname “hillbilly communists” among the local authorities. RCA Victor Records saw fit to record the rabble-rousing duo, and they released over fifty sides in their time. “Intoxicated Rat” features The Dixon Brothers’ easy vocal harmonies and trademark slide guitar style.

La familia Tempo se traslada a California para promover los interéses musicales de sus hijos. April graba dos sencillos más para pequeñas casas discográficas pero no sucede nada. En 1950, April firma contrato con la RCA Victor Records y graba una canción de 1924, de la inspiración de Cole Porter “I'm in Love Again” que se convierte en un éxito en julio de 1951. Entre tanto, Nino inició una carrera como músico de sesión tocando el saxofón y, de manera eventual, componía y hacía arreglos musicales para otros artistas de la talla de Resemary Clooney, Steve Lawrence y Eydie Gormé. Alternaba esas actividades tocando en big bands. En 1954 participa en la película The Glenn Miller History, interpretando el papel de Benny Goodman. A finales de los años ciencuenta, estaba empezando a grabar discos con su propio nombre. El LP Rock & Roll Beach Party apareció bajo el sello Liberty Records en 1958, el mismo año en que apareció el sencillo “15 Girls Friends” para la marca RCA Victor.
