(RE-HATCHING THE PAST) LARRY MOODY MAKING BIG BUZZ WITH SONG ABOUT PRESIDENT OBAMA

by Dwight L. Quinn
(10/14/2013

Rapper-songwriter Larry Moody is creating buzz for himself and even getting
recognition from President Obama for this song, "Repect Before You Ellect,"
Moody spoke with rolling out about his positive music and upcoming porjects.
-iesha danial





How did"Respect Before You Elect" come about?
My cousin ccame to me and said, Larry, you know we're going to have a
chance to have our first black president. I think we should do a song to
get out here and help the world. What do you think about " Respect Before
You Elect? And I said, it sounds good. And I wrote the whole song. Once
Obama became the President, I said, "Wow, now it's time to do another
song. So that's how I came up with "Respect and Protect: Obama's the
President".

How did it feel to be recognized by President Obama?
That was truly a blessing. That was one of the greatest things of my life,
when his staff got a chance to view my songs and listen to it before the
President got it.

What advice would you give to someone interested in pursuing a career
in the music industry?
When you know you have talent and you know that you've creative, you
just have to keep going. You can't worry about whether you're going to
blow up or you're going to make millions of dollars. It's gift that you have
and you have to keep going.

What's next for you?
Right now I have a record label that's looking at my stuff. I'm in the process
of doing a jingle for the Cardinals. I'm working on a fundraiser in St. Louis
and I'm going to put that together to help the homeless and underprivileged
people. I can truly say, no matter how big I get or how famous, I still want
to help other people.

The song (by Special Guest Carl Marshall, titled" I Got The Blues Trying To Find Love") get a group of musician together taking turns in telling about their personal experience of how they got blues while trying to find love on a pleasant, sunny morning, while the chorus and bridge suggest wistful nostalgia from the inquisitive Carl Marshall the narrator:

"My baby left me this morning, And I just couldn’t understand
Ask her why she’s leaving, She said she’s found another man"

It was also the second Moody Blues recording to feature him on lead vocals, the first song
being the cover of "Rainy Night In Georgia", from Keep On Keeping On. The album would
later go on to include some highly successful songs for the Moody Blues, such as "Oh Baby
You Don't Have To Go" (LiL Aaron Mosby), "Send Me Someone To Love" (Mississippi Red),
 and "Last Night" (LiL Aaron Mosby).

QUINN RECORDS TM RELEASES NEW ALBUM ON NOVEMBER 5 THE BEST OF OLIVER JOHNSON

by Dwight L. Quinn
09/29/2013

Two time Sodexho Award-winning blues/soul/jazz trumpeter Oliver Johnson is  one of the most proliferated trumpet greats of all time....Oliver, known as the guy who brought the trumpet to Soul." On November 5, 2013 Quinn Records TM will release The Best of Oliver Johnson, a rocking collection of Oliver's top tunes  celebrating Oliver's six years as an international blues/soul/jazz recording artist and a professional musical experience that started  at age seven. Recorded in Centreville, Illinois and produced by Quinn Records TM producer/ songwriter/ label owner,Dwight L. Quinn the album is a mix of blues and soul sounds that allowed Oliver to stretch his thundering-trumpet solo's to all time highs.

Oliver wrote,You Make Me Sing The Blues track, Quinn wrote five additional tracks and the album was topped with four covers. The songs were collected from Oliver's best-sellers. The Best of Oliver Johnson will bring Oliver's discography to nine albums,since signing with Quinn Records TM in 2004.

 Making up the core of Oliver's Nite Train band on the CD are Benton (drums), Henry Taylor
(guitar), Oliver (keyboards), Nephew Davis (bass), Oliver (Trumpet). Oswald Peters and Julio each add guitar to three tracks. Oliver, who vocal duties are to wam-bam the audience, was inspired by the sessions to monorate in the songs, something that ole band musician use to do, talk to the audience and/or the band members while the song is in play, singing If You Repay Evil For Good,Oliver would break out and direct his Nite Train Band and shout out to whoever is listening that it's hot up in here, making The Best of Oliver Johnson the most personal, free-jamming and just plain fun recording of  his nearly four-decade career.

According to Oliver, "I have a personal attachment to the music in this album. Mr. Harry Turner my music teacher while in high school would always reminded me that music is about feeling -- And I don't ever forget that".
My hope is that everyone who listens to,The Best of Oliver Johnson feels it. I know that I sure did!" Oliver  is signed with the prestigious LA De Da Entertainment and Events in St. Louis and he will be touring nationally in support of the album.

Oliver's history is proof that dreams do come true. Oliver at age six, began his study as a vocalist with his mother,Roberta Johnson of Uttica Mississippi. Roberta, who was a gospel church singer, also introduced Oliver to the music of performers like Louis Armstrong and Nancy Wilson. When Oliver was eight years old, a famous jazz organist Tabb Smith and his groups use to rehearse in Oliver's home. At ten years old, Oliver started the study of the trumpet with Mr. Harry Turner of the Count Basie Band.

Oliver's first professional performances at thirteen, started at the Cosmo Hall in East St. Louis that featured regular acts like Ike Turner, Johnny Johnson, Chuck Berry, Little Milton and Albert King.
After high school Oliver started touring with Waestmoreland, Inc. The Band that eventually became Albert King's Band included Motown-Recording regulars like, Tyrone Perry and Paul Jackson. For twelve years (12) Oliver toured throughout UK and Japan playing trumpet and singing with Mel and Tim (Backfield In Motion), Joe Tex (Skinny Leg's and All), Shirley Brown (Woman to Woman), Albert King (Born Under A Bad Sign), Gladys Knight & The Pips, Rufus Thomas (Walking The Dog), and Carla Thomas (B-A-B-Y Baby).

Aside from Oliver's regular performances he has recently played the Black Rep's Production "One More Time". Oliver is mostly known for his versatility in many different music formats, from Be-bop trumpet to Falsetto R&B singing.

He first recorded under his own name with his Cheese and Butter album a self-produced, project with the help of Roberta his mother. Hard Times! was his second project, Hard Times was later picked up and re-issued on Quinn Records TM label.
He made his first solo albums two in the late 1990's, with bands featuring outstanding musicians, including famed guitarist Oswald Peters. With his be-bop sound and rockin blues band (later featuring side man Henry Taylor), it wasn't long before he was adopted by the southern soul audience as one of their own. .

Oliver signed with Quinn Records TM in 2004, releasing Hard Times: On The Other Side of Midnight!
(which earned him his two Sodexho Lifetime Achievement Awards). In 2007 he joined the late Earl Wilson Jr. Gateway Classics annual events!. He won a Sedexho Lifetime Achievement Award in 2006 for his dedication to the arts.
During the mid-2000s Oliver has continued recording and touring relentlessly, playing clubs, concert halls and festivals all over, electrifying audiences wherever he performs. Oliver's 2012 Argosy Casino Show featuring the legendary Richard Brooks original founding member of infamous,Impressions was hailed as an over-whelming success.
Oliver and his Nite Train Band continues to tour and work nitely in clues and venues all around the St. Louis City and Metropolitan area and shortly Oliver  will be touring  internationally with his own band.


The Best of Oliver Johnson proves Oliver Johnson's be-bop rocking trumpeting  is a true force of nature, while his songs and lyrics are a living history of the blues n soul earning him the reprutation as the guy who bought the trumpet to soul.
His thundering trumpet like Gabriel's is blowing the walls of blues and soul away. His improvisations on the blues and soul are full of fun and good humor. The blues and soul don't get much better."

MOBILE IS NOT AN OPTION,MOBILE IS A MUST!

by Dwight L. Quinn

Mobile is no longer just a luxury, which is available to an exclusive class of society. 

It has now emerged as a necessity for users, developers and businesses alike. 

Users who once browsed Websites now do so, on their mobile devices.
Everything, including payment, has now become mobile.

For the first time, web and mobile measurement firm comScore Inc. is breaking 

out mobile commerce sales by product category. The firm offers a glimpse at what 

mobile shoppers are buying.

Following are select product categories, the percentage of web sales from desktop/laptop computers, the percentage from smartphones, and the percentage from tablets, for the first half of 2013, according to comScore:

Event tickets, 84.6%, 10.9%, 4.5%.

Apparel and accessories, 90.3%, 6.2%, 3.5%.

Consumer electronics, 94.4%, 2.6%, 2.9%.

Computer hardware, 94.5%, 3.3%, 2.1%.

Consumer packaged goods, 95.6%, 3.0%, 1.3%.

Overall, 90.4% of total web sales came from desktops and laptops in the first half 

of 2013, 6.0% from smartphones and 3.5% from tablets, comScore says. 

Mobile commerce sales hit $10.6 billion in the first half of 2013, comScore finds, 

up 27.7% from $8.3 billion during the first half of 2012.

“While mobile devices are already extremely influential in the overall buying process, 

they are also beginning to drive a meaningful percentage of digital commerce

,” says comScore chairman Gian Fulgoni. “One out of every ten consumer e-commerce 

dollars is now spent using either a smartphone or a tablet, and growth in this segment 

of the market is outpacing that of traditional e-commerce by a factor of 2x, which itself 

is growing at rates in the mid-teens. Any channel shift has the potential to be disruptive 

to established revenue streams, and it would appear that m-commerce spending has

reached enough of a critical mass that key stakeholders must begin to address this new 

market dynamic today or risk losing competitive advantage.”

Hence, it would be desirable for you to move with the changing times and adapt to

 the latest mobile technologies. It is no more enough to merely get someone create 

an app for your business – you also need an IT team which is “mobile-literate” and 

can take care of post mobile app development aspects, such as developing an 

effective mobile strategy, promoting the app and so on.

Today, each and every company does need to create a powerful enough mobile 

presence. In case you are not ready to develop a mobile app for your business yet, 

you should think of the next best thing – that of creating a mobile Website to 

showcase your products and services. This Website should ideally be compatible for

 viewing on a number of different mobile devices.

You will have to do a bit of research in order to hire the right app developer or team.

You could ask your business contacts or visit forums online and post your query. 

Once you choose a developer, follow the above-mentioned steps to ensure that your app 

development process is smooth and trouble-free.
