Mike Patterson – Righteous Theme(1965/06)
シングル “Don’t You Just Know It” のB面。

Another Gold Star Recording Studios obscurity. The flipside to’Don’t You Just Know It’ which was a hit for Huey “Piano” Smith in 1959,’Righteous Theme’ is a brief but echo filled, percussive instrumental under the direction of Michael Patterson with an arrangement by Woody Woodrich (who also composed the tune) that features the tenor saxophone playing of Bill Baker.
Righteous Brother, Bill Medley, has stated that without his friend, Mike Patterson, there would have never been the Righteous Brothers. Back in 1962 after coming together from two different groups, Bill and Bobby Hatfield were part of a vocal group called the Paramours. Eventually other members left and they continued singing as a duo calling themselves the Righteous Brothers at Jon’s Black Derby in Santa Ana, California. Their engagement there was up and more or less, as they were walking out the door, Mike Patterson asked them to come down to the Rendezvous Ballroom in Balboa and perform there with his band, the Rhythm Rockers. Known as a somewhat’Surf Band’ venue at that time, they initially declined but then relented and made an appearance and were quite well received. One of their tunes,’Little Latin Lupe Lu’ drew a great response from the attendees. Bill and Bobby had already recorded the tune for the tiny, Moonglow Records, but the record was going nowhere. Mike Patterson brought 1500 copies to’Gracie’s Music’ in Santa Ana, which sold like hotcakes because of their newfound local interest and by radio stations calling in to see what was selling.’Little Latin Lupe Lu’ became a nice sized hit. One thing led to another and the Righteous Brothers were opening for the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. They were hired as regular performers for the new ABC-TV music program,’Shindig!’ and shortly after, their contract at Moonglow Records was leased by record producer, Phil Spector who went on to create the recording with them that went on to be the most played record of the 20th century. Bill and Bobby hired Mike Patterson to be their music director and road manager and Patterson also managed the Blossoms, who would perform with the Righteous Brothers and also Tom Jones. Bill Medley and Mike Patterson remained lifelong friends until Patterson’s death from heart failure on his 75th birthday, July 1, 2017.

日銀がインフレ目標達成時期を削除しましたが、これは事実上のギブアップです。しかしなぜ、一旦は上昇しかけていた物価が途中で頓挫してしまったのでしょうか。1-3月期のGDPが9期ぶりのマイナス成長となるなど、日本はますます貧乏になっています。
(中略)
日銀が掲げた「安定的に2%以上の物価上昇」という目標は、今の日本の企業対応を考えると、何年たっても実現しないことになります。

どうやら2020年の五輪閉会式は、経済大国ニッポンのフェアウェル・パーティー、お別れの会になりそうだ。

Toshiba Corp. will remove its corporate logo from its prominent position atop the One Times Square building overlooking New York’s iconic tourist hub as part of cost-cutting efforts, sources said Wednesday.
In addition to terminating its contract for the Times Square screen in the first half of next year, the company has also formally decided to end its sponsor agreement with two long-running Japanese television programs — popular cartoon “Sazae-san” and a Sunday night show — at the end of March, the sources said.
The conglomerate is currently moving to streamline group operations to improve its financial standing as it looks to overcome huge losses stemming from its now-bankrupt U.S. nuclear unit.
Toshiba’s advertising cutbacks in Japan and the United States follow its recent decision to sell its TV and visual products subsidiary to Chinese electronics maker Hisense Group and its sale last year of its household appliance unit to China’s Midea Group Co.

タイムズスクエアで19日までに、東芝の巨大広告スクリーンの撤去作業が始まった。米原発事業による巨額損失で経営危機に陥った東芝は、経営再建に向けた合理化の一環で広告の打ち切りを決めていた。
 東芝は2007年12月、日本企業では初めて一等地の「ワン・タイムズスクエア・ビル」の最上部に巨大な発光ダイオード(LED)の広告スクリーンを設置した。
 12月31日から1月1日にかけて新年の到来を祝う恒例のカウントダウンイベントでは、新年までの秒数表示に使われた。このイベントは10億人以上がテレビで見るとされ、テレビ中継で映る「TOSHIBA」の文字は、東芝の海外事業拡大の象徴だった。
 広告スクリーンは現在、黒いシートで覆われている。

広告スクリーンの撤去発表から工事着工まで半年かかったね。
まぁ場所が場所だから慎重を期したのかな。

ともかくも、日本の時代は終わった!
