Friday, June 10th marks the return to the Narrows of singer/songwriter Chip Tayor, with his partner, the beautiful and talented Carrie Rodriguez.
Chip who? you might ask. Besides being Angelina Jolie's uncle and actor John Voight's brother (they kinda look alike too), Chip may have written some of your favorites songs. For example:
--Wild Thing. That's right, "Wild thing, you make my heart sing." It was a big hit for the Troggs, and was recorded by Jimi Hendrix and others.
--Angel of the Morning. That's right. The one recorded by Merrilee Rush and Juice Newton. You know the song, don't you? "I'm just your angel of the morning..."
--Janis Joplin, Frank Sinatra, The Pretenders, Bonnie Raitt, Johnny Cash, Fats Domino, Linda Rondstadt, Ike & Tina Turner, and Shaggy have recorded Chip Taylor songs.
This guy is a historical figure in the history of rock music, and he's still going strong with his new collaboration. Don't miss this show! And get him to autograph your Jimi Hendrix album, too!
